"I can't believe school is almost over!" you said during lunch, as you sat with Anne and Diana.

"think of all the fun things we can do this summer!" Diana said.

you nodded, "we should definitely go swimming!" you said.

"I have an idea aswell!" Anne said. "I recently wrote a new story and maybe we could act it out, Y/n you'd be perfect for the role of the princess and Diana, you'd be perfect for her sister!"

"oh that sounds splendid!" you exclaimed. "I'd love to act out one of your stories they're always great!"

"thank you, but you still need a prince charming." Anne said, "I was thinking you could ask Gilbert to take the part."

"I could ask him! I'll do it after school." you said.

"do you think he's gonna take the part?" Diana asked.

"I hope so, because otherwise we'll have to get one of the girls to play it and it would be so much better with Gilbert," Anne said.

"He is quite charming, don't you think, y/n?" Diana asked, giggling.

"a little," you said, "but I simply think of Gilbert as a friend." you added. "I still have to ask Mr. Phillips about the homework, I'll see you in class."

"okay bye!" Anne said.

"if Gilbert takes the part, you're gonna make them kiss right?" Diana asked Anne, once to you were inside.

"definitely."

"ask him now before he goes home!" Anne said after class, when Gilbert was grabbing his coat. she pushed you in his direction as he walked out of the schoolhouse. "we'll see you at the storyclub!"

you quickly ran after him, "Gilbert!" you yelled.

he turned around, a smile appeared on his face, "hey Y/n wh-"

"you have to play the prince in Anne's story!" you said.

Gilbert chuckled, "I don't know Y/n I d-"

"oh come on! it'll be fun!" you said.

"I don't know, Y/n," Gilbert said, scratching his neck.

"pleaseee?" you looked at him, using your puppy eyes. "for me?"

"okay fine!" Gilbert said, chuckling.

"great! I don't know exactly what tge play is about, but Anne will explain everything and I'm sure it'll be fun!" you said as you grabbed Gilbert's arm. "come on!"

"so the story is about a beautiful princess. she lives with her older sister, a very mean and jealous woman, who keeps her locked up."  Anne said, once you were all sitting in the story house. "a prince shows up and saves her from her sister, when they fled the castle they share a kiss."

You felt your cheeks turn red, "you didn't tell me there was going to be a kiss!" you said.

"it's a romantic story, of course there's gonna be a kiss!" Anne said.

you gulped, avoiding eye contact with Gilbert who sat next to you, with crimson red cheeks. his heart was beating rather fast. Diana was quietly giggling at the scene.

Anne clapped her hands, "let's begin!" she said, "I have scripts for all of you." she handed out the scripts. "be careful I spend hours on them!"

you nodded as you took the last script from her hands. you read it carefully, it was a good script, but having to kiss Gilbert was terrifying. you didn't really know why... what's so scary about a kiss?
