*Chad's POV*
I'm at basketball practice with Troy and the team, but I just can't seem to get my head in the game. Scratch that, my head's I'm the game, but my heart's in the song.
It's Leila. Ever since I first heard her singing 3 years ago in the 8th grade talent show, I've been fascinated with music. Part of me wants to audition for this musical thing, but I know that's not an option.
I spent so much time thinking about Lei that I didn't notice her walking down the hall at the same time as me. I ran into her, knocking down her books in the process
"I'm so sorry Lei, I didn't see you," I say nervously .
Lei smiles, but then gets serious, like there's something important she needs to talk about.
"Can we go somewhere to talk?" She asks, looking down at the ground.
Without a word, I grab her hand and take her up to the roof that Troy showed me earlier that year.
"I heard you singing the other day," she tells me as soon as we get up there .
"Please don't tell anyone, Lei," I plead.
"Chad, you have an amazing voice, you shouldn't hide it! " she exclaims.
"Leila, please. I can't let this get out."
" Okay. I promise. You can trust me . But if you ever want to, come over to the house, and we can go somewhere private where we both can sing our hearts out, and no one will see us. "
"Thank you so much Lei, seriously."
" Anything for you. "
We slowly lean in, our faces getting closer and closer, until finally our lips meet. This kiss is everything I've ever wanted in a kiss.
That girl.
I swear.
