The brown eyed boy who stole my heart

Chapter 3

After we hung out at the lake, I knew I had to see him again. I started texting him, hoping I wasn't being annoying. I thought maybe I should ask to hangout with him again. So I did. "You want to go to the movies?". Surprisingly, he said yes! He picked me up from work and we headed to watch "sex tape". It was supposed to be funny! During the movie, I just wanted to grab his hand. But again, he had a girlfriend.

After the movie, he just took me back home.
The next day, we worked together. I couldn't concentrate on what I was supposed to do because I was just looking at him the whole time.

While I was filling women's shoes, I could feel someone standing there. I look up, and it's Mark. He had his hand down so I thought he was going to help me up. But he didn't. He was trying to get a box. Man, was I embarrassed. I felt my face grow red. throughout the day, my feelings for him grew and grew.

I never thought this would turn into anything serious. I kept wishing it would.

As the days passed, and us talking more and more, I knew I had to tell him how I felt. The only problem was, I was afraid. I was afraid he wouldn't feel the same way. And I would just get hurt. Again.

At home, I was sitting on my bed listening to music, and all I could think about was him. I kept smiling and smiling and I got the courage to pick up my phone, and text him how I felt. Turns out, he felt the same! I was beyond happy. I remember jumping on my bed and doing a little happy dance.

As we texted every day, my feelings for him just grew and grew. Well one day, he asked me on a date. We went to eat, then the movies. I remember sitting in the movie theater just waiting for him to grab my hand. I swear it felt like forever. Out of nowhere, he grabs my hand and I feel my heart beating, faster and faster.

We weren't dating yet. It took him awhile to ask me. Maybe a month and a half. We hung out and he took me to a park. We just walked around, swung on the swings, played with these little musical things they had. Then just sat talking. It felt like we talked about everything. Family, life and school. We talked about past relationships and just what we look forward to in the future. Time was going by really fast. It was already 10 p.m. As 11:11 comes around, we both made a wish. He kept asking me what I wished for but I didn't wanna tell him. I was shy.

I asked what he wished for and he said "I'll show you", then kissed me. All I could do was smile. we got up and walked to a bridge where we kissed some more. His arms around my waist, the way he looked me in the eyes and smiled. I knew at that point that, that was exactly what I wanted. Him.

We walked back to his truck and laid down on his tailgate, where we just looked at the stars. My head on his chest, his arm around me. I wouldn't want to be anywhere else. It was cold. really cold. We got up and sat in the front seat of his truck. By then it was past 12. We were just talking and listening to music. He looked at me, and said "jennifer, will you be my girlfriend?". Happily, I said yes! We began to kiss some more and then we hugged. it was the best feeling in the world. I remember that day like it was yesterday.
