Skylar McCall

Chapter 4 - Movie Night

*the next evening*

I was getting ready to leave for Stiles' house for our movie night. I was unsure wether this was a date or not, he said it was the first night we met, but he hadn't mentioned it since then. He texted to say he was outside, he was picking me up considering it was too far to walk and there was no way I was getting Scott to drive me on his motorbike. He was still acting weird, I'm guessing it was something to do with tonight, so I decided to give him space. I would talk to him tomorrow.

I dashed down the stairs and to the front door. I opened it and Stiles' face lit up, I immediately smiled back. "You ready to go?" He asked politely.
"Yea, are you?"
"Well, i was thinking about standing here for a while ya know."
Mental facepalm. I was new to this whole dating thing and I clearly haven't quite got the hang of it yet.
I blushed with embarrassment and quickly tried to hide behind my hair, hoping he wouldn't notice. This clearly failed as Stiles laughed loudly. He reached up and tucked my hair behind my ear.
"Hey you look really cute when you blush" he smiled innocently.
"Thanks" I replied, although it came out as more of a whisper.

Once we arrived at his house, he launched onto the sofa. He clearly meant business, as all the snacks were already laid out, there were cushions and blankets everywhere and the DVD was ready to go. I sat down fairly close him and curled up in a blanket while he shoved a handful of popcorn into his mouth. To my surprise, I actually found it kind of adorable.

We had finished Star Wars A New Hope (we're watching in them in the order they were released) and were reshuffling into comfier positions. In doing so we ended up closer together, the side of our bodies pressing against each other. We were half way through the next film when Stiles moved his arm to wrap around my shoulder and pulled me gently towards him.

After watching the next two, we decided to have a break to talk for a little while. Stiles leaned over me to grab the curly fries which had gone cold, not that he seemed to bother. His face was millimetres from mine, if either of us moved the slightest fraction forward then our lips would be touching. Which is exactly what he did.

At first I was so shocked I just sat there completely frozen, but after a few seconds I began to move my lips in synch with his. He cupped my face in his hands as I placed mine on the back of his head. I ran my fingers through his hair as he deepened the kiss. He licked my lower lip slightly to ask for entrance which I gladly gave him. We had to stop for air every once in a while and every time we did so we gazed into each other's eyes, before quickly returning to kissing. We kissed for what felt like a few minutes, but we eventually realised it had been much longer than that.

When we stopped I couldn't help but ask the question which had been on my mind all night. "Stiles, was this a date?"
He fidgeted with his hands before answering. "Yea, it was." He rejoined eye contact before mild panic flashed through his eyes and he rushed out "but only if you want it to be".
"Yea, I do." I grinned, giving him reassurance.
He breathed a sigh of relief before the nervousness came flooding back. "Hey Skylar?"
"Yes?"
"I really like you. Like a lot."
"Stiles. I.. I really like you too." I could hardly get the words "a lot" out of my mouth before Stiles smashed his lips to mine. He pulled away after a few seconds. "Skylar, I know it's really soon... but, do you wanna be my girlfriend?"
I launched myself into his arms and flung mine around his neck. "I'll take that as a yes then?" He chuckled.
"Yes" I breathed.

I glanced over to the clock and saw that it was 2am. Stiles followed my gaze. "It's pretty late, I should head home." Stiles nodded his head and rose from the couch taking my hand in his. He pulled me up and we walked outside to his Jeep.

"Thanks Stiles" I said once we arrived at my house.
"See you tomorrow" Stiles muttered placing a quick peck on my lips.
"See you tomorrow" I repeated as he opened the door to the Jeep and climbed inside. He waited until I entered my house before pulling out of the driveway. I watched through the kitchen window as he drove off down the street. Dragging myself up the stairs towards my room, I heard Scott's door open slightly behind me. I turned around to see him peering his head round the door. He looked at me for a few seconds before closing it. I turned back around and headed into my room, where I got ready for bed and fell asleep the second my head came into contact with the pillow.
