It must be destiny

Saturday came by very quickly.  The night before I went to the club as usual and I stayed up all night the night before.  I had considered canceling on the guys but scince I had promised Ronald that we would go to the amusement park I got some coffee and we headed out the door. Scince  Jays passing I had come to think of his brothers as family. The younger one Ronald was 15. I brought him with me because although Israel had invited me,  I really did think he asked me as a friend.  After all  he did invite Kate and Enrique.

I was tired and we had to ride two different  buses to get to where we were going.  Israel and I kept exchanging shy glances. The conversation wasn't about anything in particular.  I remember Ronald kept giving me looks with wounder behind them.

Dorney Park is an amusement park slash water park. We got to a ride with lots of loops. Israel was afraid of heights. I liked riding in the front seat. It was like flying in the air. He was trying to impress me so he sat next to me in the front and Ronald was on the other side.  Kate and Enrique were in the seats behind us. Looking back now I see how much of a sacrifice Israel did for me that day. He suffers from  motion sickness. Really bad motion sickness but he rode that coaster for me.

The rest of the day were devided between both parks.  All in all we ended up having a blast.

One afternoon we were at my Aunt's house having dinner. My aunt was always known for her match making skills.  

Nereida: " I heard something I think you should know." She said with a mischievous laugh.

Me: " And what is that sweet aunt?"

Nereida: "Israel asked me to pray for a petition he has."

Me: " Really? And what might that be?"

Nereida: " You ."

I was stunned. Because of his shyness, he had never once let me know he had any interest in me ! I stood staring at my aunt like a deer in the headlights.

Me: "Really? "

I didn't want to dive to much into that particular conversation. So I just brushed it off as " I didn't know ."

However my aunt had given me a lot to think about.  For the first time in my life I was wanted by a nice guy. Not a player trying to get in my pants.

That evening as we were watching a movie,  something happened.
Israel was sitting very close to me. I had worn a short straight wig that night. I liked wearing wigs. As we were watching the movie I felt his finger run up and down the back of my neck. I shivered at the feel of him. He then used the same finger to play with my ear. I got butterflies in my stomach.  This guy, this shy guy was actually making a move! I was stunned, in a happy way. This Man had my blood pumping into my ears. It was so sudden.  So unexpected.  He whispered how beautiful I looked in my ear. This made me smile. His sexy gaze over me with those green blazing eyes had me wanting more of him. I would look at his full lips wanting to kiss them vigorously over and over until we ran out of breath.  However we were at my Aunt's house filled with my relatives and kissing him just wouldn't be appropriate.

That night when it was time to say goodnight,  I asked him to step outside with me for a minute.  I wanted to kiss him but there was no invitation on his part. We just carried out a slightly awkward conversation filled with small talk. Absolutely not what I wanted at all. To top it of his friend stepped outside also. They lived in a studio apartment about 20 minutes away on foot and they were getting ready to leave. As we were saying our goodnight I pulled his arm and landed a very gentle kiss on his lips. His smile was priceless.  We said good night and he was gone.
