It had been 6 days since we had talked. I was taking my morning walk when I saw him. He was casually sitting on th roof of his mom's car. I got so angry! He knew damn well I would be walking this way. He knew my schedule and path I took every morning. "I thought you were mad at me." I said without making eye contact.
"Are you PMS-ing or something?" He said with a grin, knowing it would piss me off. " bitch you guessed it! And you was right" I sang. Almost on Que.. "so why the shit didn't you text me!" I said changing the subject to a different tone. "Well... I knew you were jogging this way, obviously. so I have you caught you here to talk to you about recent events."
"Your here to apologize?" I said expectantly. " I don't really know" he said getting up from the good of the car and gently placing his hand on my hip, leaning into my ear." I just want to let you know I'm here if you wanna get it on." "Re you serious right now?!" I screamed. I guess he was expecting me to make out with him on the spot because when jumped back and removed his soft hand from my lower back. He must have moved his hand in attempt to grab my butt.
"Look," I said pulling a strand of hair behind my ear. " I really like you and I think we should save this kind of behavior for when your the same age as me." I said placing my hand on his chest. "That's a whole 'nuther year!" He said backing away." I literally just turned 15!" He put his hands in his shorts pocket and looked down at me with pleading eyes. He was a year younger but a foot taller than me.
At that moment, a hundred memories flashed in the back of my mind. When I first met him in 5th grade and he had glasses and looked like a complete dork with his bowl haircut. The time we made a giant snowman out of sand at the beach. The time he gave me back my Barbie in 7th grade, when he had taken it 2 years before. All these memories took me back and I realized that he was sincere when he wanted me.
All the sudden I hugged him, feeling his arms wrap around me made me feel giggly and excited inside. "You need to come with me." he said leading my hand into the prairie field behind his and many other peoples houses. I was scared but excited for what was to come this time.
