In love with the skater boy

Chapter Six.

If someone had told me two weeks ago that I’d be here right now kissing this infuriating boy I would’ve told them they were insane. Well, then I must be insane as well since in this very moment I’m not numb anymore like I was when Max and I kissed, I can feel everything from the tenderness of his lips on mine to the craziness of this very moment existence.

His hands go to my cheeks and I can feel the tears that still run from my eyes being took by his fingers, they way he touches me I feel so safe and valuable like I’m something precious he tries to protect. I don’t know for how long we stood there just kissing and trying to freeze time to not acknowledge the fact that this changes everything, we both can tell this is not a simple hook up or something to get out of our systems, this is something else and when this kiss ends we have to figure out what the hell are we doing next.

Even when the idea of prolonging this moment is really appealing, I need to know what happens next so I put my hands on his chest and gently push him away. He seems to get the idea of what I’m doing so he reluctantly pulls away but his forehead is still connected to mine, our faces only inches apart and our erratic breathing is the only thing you can hear in this empty parking lot.

After a few seconds I finally gather the courage to look into those deep blue eyes of his and I notice they are still dark with lust, the need to kiss him again comes back with full force but I try to gain some self control to say with a breathy voice “That was unexpected”

He chuckled and his eyes twinkle in amusement “Figure you’d find a way to kill the moment” he says on a teasing voice.

“Hey! At least I said something” I reply faking being offended even when I know he was joking and this feels weird, for us, this flirty tone we are using, the was his hands are still grabbing my waist firmly like he doesn’t want to ever let me go.

“So Barbie I think we both can tell we have something to talk about right?” he asks but I hear the uncertain tone he is using and my face turns soft at the idea that this tough guy is feeling insecure about my feelings towards him. He runs his hand through his hair and looks away from me before saying “Do you want to meet up later so we can talk somewhere more private? The parking lot is about to get full with students”

I nod my head and my hand goes to his subconsciously grabbing it and giving it a gentle squeeze to reassure him this is nothing to get worried about, even when on the inside I’m freaking out myself. I think from the outside we must look like we are in an alternative universe where the tough scary skater boy and the goody-two shoes are staring tenderly into each other’s eyes.

How can a kiss change everything so much? My hatred towards him is completely gone and I want to be in his arms right now instead of a few inches apart, I want to be no distance whatsoever and he seems to be in deep thought about something, I hope his mind is full of confusion like mine.

“Give me your number, I’ll text you the address and hour, I have to see if my mom is working late and I have to baby sit my siblings today” he says and my mind goes blank for a second, here I am hating and then kissing this boy and I don’t have a clue of what his life is like, hell, I don’t even know his favorite color?

I gave him my phone so he can text himself and save my number and then he leans into me and kisses my forehead softly “I don’t know what the hell you are doing to me but I’d be a foolish liar if I said I didn’t like it”

Even at his choice of words I can help the smile that escapes me and he stares at me for a while before he says “I’ve made you frown and scowl so many times I think I’ve never seen you smile at me like that, I like it” his fingers caress my cheek and my head tilts towards it hoping he wont stop anytime soon but then his phone buzzes with what I guess it’s a text message because he just looks at the screen and turns his attention to me again.

“Sorry I have to go but I’ll text you later, promise” he pecks my lips and hurriedly runs in the opposite direction of the school and I’m left there with a stupid dazed look on my scarlet red face and the thought in my head that maybe this is what I’ve being missing in my life.
