Gwen's Pov:

He stops from what he is doing to me. Then he let go of me. And he chuckled.

I think this is the first time that I ever saw him laughing infront of me. Not that he ever hangs up with me. Because he never did.

"T-that's a new" I whispered.

"What!" He said as he stops chuckling but you can still sense that he has not getting over it yet. "Is there another joke?!"

"N-no!" I replied. "You smiled. You even laughed and that's n-new" I said and noticed myself smiling too. Forgetting the fact that we just make out. "to me!"

"You're so innocent Gwen, I hope you remain that way." He said standing up straight, then the smug expression came back. "Let's go, I'll drive you home"

I didn't reply, so as he. I just look at him as I compose myself. Then he turn around and start walking away as I follow behind until we reached his car.

This is the second time I entered his car. The first time is a while ago. His car is different from David or Emily's car. His, moves smoothly and smells so manly. Even the sound of the car seems different, because it sounds expensive. And I don't want to seem exaggerated or what so ever, but this is the most awkward ride ever. The deadening silence and the memory of our make out session moments ago lingers on my mind.

He seems a little uncomfortable too. I can see in my peripheral view that he's throwing glances at me. Maybe he's thinking, what should he tell me about what happened moments ago without hurting my feelings too much.

Few minutes later and we arrived to my house. He's never been in our place but I knew that he knows where I leave. I didn't have to ask him how did he know where I live, right?

"Thank you!" I just said before opening his car door. Thanking God that we're here.

"Hey wait—!" He said as he grab my wrist with his large hand that stopped me from going out.

This is it!

"Listen" I said cutting him off as I continued. "Let's forget what happened a while ago. I understand everything. Now I want to sleep." I remove his hand on my wrist, go out and walk to our lone till I reach our door. And open it with my own key.

Am kinda rude there. Yeah! But I don't want to hear his reply or what he has to say. Cause I don't know how to react if he tells me that what happened is just a mistake. I'll just pretend that it never even happened and continue liking him from afar.

Monday morning. At least I walk up not so late. I still have time to shower longer than the usual. While listening to a K-pop song. Yes I'm a K-pop fan. But even if am a quarter korean, I can only understand few of their words. My father haven't been there and grew up here so he doesn't talk much of their language.

While having my hot shower and lathering my body with my favourite liquid soap. I remembered what happened last Saturday night. I bet kissing is just normal for teenagers. I'm already 17. You know? When you grow up with a conservative Lola(grandmother). And her teachings that says I can only give my virginity on my wedding night.

That's ancient I think.

To say that I am innocent is more than understatement. Am still a virgin. And my first kiss is last Saturday night. Well! At least my first was him. Thank God for that. And I only fantasized kissing him. Only him.

But people at school are sexually active, as young as me, some were even younger. And my parents had me at the very young age. They say their young and in love. Maybe that's not so wrong after all.

But he didn't just kissed me. He awakens something in me. Something I never thought I have. I remembered how it feels like. And all of a sudden I feel hot.

"Knock knock" Bryan shouted with a knock, rucking me from the thought.

"Woah! Shit!" I whispered. "Who's there?!" I shouted back with annoyance.

"It's me Bry" he replied.

"Bry who?!" I started to joke.

"Hey ate(bigsister), this is not some kind of lola and moms' lame jokes. David called, he said he's going to be here in 20 mins and he'll drive you to school, he'll just pick up Emily first so hurry up. We still have time for breakfast and stop listening to those korean-girly-cheesy-pop songs. Yuycks". My brother yelled. Yeah, he is not a fan, typical for boys.

"Ok fine. I'll be done in a minute" I yelled back as I heard him stepping out of my room.

I finished my shower washing away those thoughts and go to my built in cabinet, to wear my uniform. And wear my usual make up. Then took my bag to put my cheer uniform inside.

And yes! Am one of those cheerers, but unlike them, I don't wear my cheer uniform the whole school hours just to impress. I just wear them whenever dance practice, competition and football game.

"What happened to you last Saturday night?" David asks while driving on our way to school, all of the sudden.

"W-what do you think? You leave me there alone that I have to ask others to drive me home." I replied rolling my eyes. Grinning and a bit annoyed.

He chuckled as he looks at me with his usual funny face. "Am sorry Gwen, Audrey is so hot that I can't say no." He said as if he's really sorry.

"You can't say no to her? Really?" I replied sarcastically. Audrey is one of the three head cheerleaders. She's known for being bitchy and flirty. And for some reason, she doesn't like me. And because of that, I don't like her too.

Dave just chuckle again.

"Do you know what's the new talk of the town" Emily asked all of a sudden, away from the topic. I just look at her with curiosity as I waited for the information. "Someone told me that Austin has a new conquest." She said, then she looks at me.

"And who's the girl?" David asks with curiosity too.

"Someone from the house party you both went to. Didn't you notice anything?" She asks.

"No!" Dave and I replied simultaneously.

"Oh well! We all know Austin's reputation." Emily said then she looks at me. "Whether it's just a rumor or not, don't be sad Gwen, its just another play thing."

Another plaything!
