1980's / mattia polibio

.17

I woke up with only one thing on my mind. It wasn't exactly Mattia rather than how I am going to confront Mattia. I got dressed normally and sat in my bed with my hands resting on my knees and my face resting on my hands. I couldn't think of any right way to say whatever I needed to say. I decided that I was just going to go with the flow. When I feel ready I'll tell him. With that mindset I finally went off to the Sandlot.
"Hey guysss" I announced once all the boys on the field were visible.
"Yo" Ale and Roshaun spoke.
"Sup girl" said Alvaro.
"Hey" said Robert and Kairi.
Nothing. Not a single word from Mattia. All I get was a little look towards my direction. Didn't really know what I was expecting. I brushed it aside for now and continued on with our game. We messed around and played the game we love per usual. I hit and caught the ball multiple times before the day was slowly coming to an end. Before leaving we decided to just chill and talk in the dugout. We all sat in a circle and pulled out some blankets we keep stashed in a basket. We talked about how our lives been and cracked jokes. I'm truly grateful to call these people my friends. After many meaningful convos it was getting a bit too dark. Everyone started heading home. We were all about to walk off the field when I knew what I had to do. I grabbed Mattias hand and pulled him away from the boys. They new I had to talk to him privately so they walked off.
"What are you doing?" he questioned rather rudely.
"I need to talk to you" I replied.
"About what? Can't this wait" he insisted.
"No it really can't" I continued.
He didn't listen and started to walk off anyway.
"What is your problem. One minute you act like I mean something to you and the next you act like you hate me!" I shouted.
He stopped in his tracks and turned around at what I said.
"You want to know what my problem is? Fine it's you. I cant be around you without falling head over heels for you all over again and it scares me so much. And of course I don't hate you Smalls I never did and never could!" he yelled back.
"wait- what?" I sorta whispered completely taken back.
"There happy? There is the whole truth. I'm not good enough for you and I've never felt this way about someone. So instead of trying to figure it out I did the one thing I know how to do, and that was to push you away. You make me absolutely crazy Smalls!" he said with a genuine look in his eyes.
I couldn't believe the words that had just fallen out of his mouth. I was shocked and didn't know what to say. So i didn't say anything. Without thinking I ran up to him and crashed our lips together. The thing I've been longing to do since the first time I laid eyes on him. This kiss was passionate and full with emotions that we couldn't quiteexpress through words. Everything we've ever done or said felt like it was leading up to this moment. Our lips moved in sync and it felt perfect.
After a good 15 seconds we both pulled away breathless. Our foreheads were still touching and our lips still centimeters apart. I looked up at him and our eyes met.
"I'm so sorry for how Ive treated you. I didn't know how to act around you, so I tried to pretend as if you weren't there hoping the feelings would fade but they never did. I don't want that anymore. I want to be around you and I want to talk to you all the time. I want you Smalls" he assured looking deeply into my eyes as if he was staring at my soul.
"And I want you Polibio. I've always wanted you" I smiled.
He returned the smile and picked me up in his arms. He spun me around and I giggled at the cute gesture. Once he put me down we began to walk back to our neighborhood hand in hand.
As we arrived in the middle of our circled street, we said our goodbyes. Before I could completely walk off he grabbed my hand and pulled me back in for another kiss.
This lasted until we were ever so rudely interpreted by Kairi yelling "FINALLY" and Alvaro yelling "GET A ROOM" from their windows. Mattia and I laughed, walking off into our houses.
When my bedroom door was shut, I slid down on it until I was sitting on the floor. I pinned my head up and thought about my very, very crazy day. The second I shut my eyes I relived our kiss and the biggest smile appeared on my face.
I got up and decided my shower could hold off until tomorrow. I slipped on some pajamas and slide into bed. I shut my eyes with one special boy in mind.
