I just wrote chapter 3, it's 11 pm and I still want to write...oops
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Drew's POV

After lunch I headed to forth period; English. It was one of my favorite classes because I sit next to one of my childhood friends, who I have a crush on...Oops? His name is John, but I write his name as Jawn, and he hates me for it, i'm also the only person aloud to call him John. We were assigned partners earlier in the week for an essay we're writing. Can you guess my partner? DING DING DING we have a winner! It's obviously John. I smile at the sound of his name.

I walk into English and give John a small nod and grin. I sit next to him and he starts talking.

"So I came up with some ideas for our essay. Since we have to compare and contrast I thought we could write about different holidays, like the differences and similarities of Christmas and Hanukkah. The holidays are coming up and all." I smiled at the idea

"Maybe, I like the idea. We should do it. We could start researching today?" I said, and John smiled and nodded.
The rest of the time in English we spent researching, we deiced that we were going to also work on it later tonight. So when the last bell rang we headed out of the building towards John's car; a white pick up truck. On the way there I grabbed his hand, and we ended up interlocking fingers. It seemed like something out of a movie, but I just smiled at our hands, then looked up proud of myself for doing that. I was acting like a little girl, smiling at the fact that when I did something kind of couple-ly with John that he didn't jerk away and shoot me a glare.

When we got to John's house he opened the door for me, I walked in and his mom spotted me from the kitchen.

"Drew! Come here! I haven't seen you in forever!" Mrs. Smarty said, and I walked and gave her a hug. John grabbed us two bottles of water and then said, "Oh mom, me and Drew are going upstairs to finish a project." I pulled away from his mom and looked at John with a small smirk that said "don't give her the wrong idea." 

"Well, enjoy that." She said then went back to cleaning up the kitchen. I looked at John then said, "I bet I could beet you to your room!" 

"Doubt it!" He said and I sprinted away. I ran upstairs to his room and I dropped my bag when I got in there. I laughed as he made it up, like,  30 seconds after me. He dropped his backpack and tossed me a water bottle. I drank a couple sips then set it down, John drank a little then shut his door. I threw myself on his queen sized bed, then sat up. I looked at  John, he was smiling mischievously, "Oh no, don-" I couldn't even finish my sentence and he was tickling me. I was giggling so much it was hard to breathe. 

"Jo-ohn. St-st-op." I said in between giggles. 

"What's the magic word?" He said above my giggles, starting to laugh with me now.

"Games!" I said and he stopped. That had been our magic word since we were little kids when he was more of a big brother figure than my crush. He had pinned me down on the bed from ticking me. He let go of me and I just smiled at him, I was still laying on the bed and he was hovering over me. He slipped off of the bed and I sat up, I laughed and knew we wern't going to get any work done whatsoever. I got off the bed and smiled at him, I opened the door and said, 

"Betcha can't catch me!" And I ran as fast as I could. I ran down the hall and into his sisters room, from there I hid in the closet. When he turned around I tarted out and ran towards his room, I must have not ran fast enough because when I was almost back in his room again he grabbed me by my waist and said "Gotcha!" 

I turned, with his hands still around my waist, as he set me back down and looked him in the eyes. I made the sudden decision to kiss him. When I stood on my tip toes to kiss him, I was surprised when he kissed back, and I smiled into the kiss. When I pulled away, I looked him in the eyes and smiled. I headed back to his room and we actually started doing work. with a little peck on with my cheek or his cheek here and there, I guess things were moving surprisingly fast, because we were acting like we'd been dating for months. When the sun started setting I decided to ask him if it would be okay for me to spend the night. When he said yes I called and asked my mom, who also said yes. We had almost written the whole essay when John's mom called us to dinner. We ate the soup she had made us then headed back upstairs. When we got back in his room, John grabbed my waist, spun me around, and kissed me, softly but passionately. When we finally pulled away he said, 

"God you don't understand how long I've waited to do that." and I just smiled and he kissed my forehead. You'd think that he'd finally realize how fast it's all moving, but I guess he was turning a blind eye to it. It's not that I wasn't enjoying it, oh my god I was, but it's all so sudden. 

"Hey John, do you have any long sleeve shirts I could wear to bed tonight?" I asked when I noticed that it was dark out, guess I forgot how quickly the sun set in the winter time. 

"Sure." He asked and walked away to get me one. I checked my wrist watch and saw that it was almost 7, and I called my mom at 5:30, so it's been a little over  an hour since I decided to sleep over here. When he came back out of his closet he threw me a black long sleeved under armour shirt. I smiled and walked towards his bathroom to get changed. When I got in the bathroom, I washed my face with water and soap, then took my jeans and t-shirt off and threw his shirt on. I smelt it when I put it on, and it smelled like John's cologne; his shirt came halfway down my thighs, I shruged, grabbed my clothes and walked back to John's room. When I walked in he was sitting on his bed checking his phone, he looked up and smiled at me, "Beautiful." he said and I just blushed. It's not like John's never called me pretty, he's said it hundreds of times, but none of them really meant as much as now when I had no makeup on, and in just his tee shirt, I felt vulnerable but when he said that it's like a blanket of comfort was wrapped around me. I walked over and threw my clothes on my book bag and I walked over and pecked John's lips, then asked

"Are we going to watch a movie?" 

"Sure, let's go downstairs." He held my hand as we headed down stairs. When we got downstairs I picked out the movie and he popped the popcorn. I decided on Elf and put it in the dvd player. John put the popcorn in a bowl and sat down while I got us some water. I was walking over and he motioned for me to sit down next to him. I put the waters down on the coffee table and sat down next to John. As the movie started playing John put his arm around me. I snuggled into him and grabbed some popcorn, eating one at a time. Half way through the movie John asked me a good question, "So, are we like, a thing now?" I looked up at him, smiled, and said "Yes, yes we are," as if it wasn't obvious that we were completely and utterly a thing now. 

We finished that movie then decided to watch another. We deiced upon The Polar Express, one of my all time favorites. I watched the movie then whispered in John's ear, "I love you, and I mean it more than a friend this time."  He kissed my head and I fell asleep to the sound of his heartbeat, like every other cliche couples in the movies.
