High School Sweetheart's

Chapter 1: Asking Her Out

It was the first day of High School. I was confident that this year I was going to ask my best friend, Olivia Benson out. I had worked on everything that I could possibly do to get her to want to be my girlfriend. I mean, from 8th grade to now, my look has really changed. I went from this fat, short, brace face, pimply looking kid to this sexy, tall, straight tooth, clear faced dude. Overall, I was a total stud. It was weird, one day I woke up and I couldn't imagine myself with anyone but her. It strange how you can be friends for as long as we have and then one day it's like this switch was flipped on. She was beautiful; her eyes were as if my soul could have melted if I'd stared to long. Her smile was like an angel's, her laugh made me feel as if I had butterflies in my stomach. I loved her and that one thing that I couldn't help.

So this morning, I had decided to look my best, you know, dress to impress. I put on my favorite red long sleeved shirt, my favorite pair of Levi jeans, and my best, Van slip ons. I had also combed my hair; I sorta looked like a skater boy, along with adding a dab of cologne. In general, I looked good. I went downstairs only to find my mom making us all breakfast and my sister's running around the table. My dad was drinking a cup a coffee and reading the paper. I sat down at the table and ate my toast, eggs, and bacon before my mom started noticing my appeal.

"Elliot, you smell good son." She told me as she smiled then finished washing some dishes.

"It's probably for a girl." My annoying little sister's say before they start bashing their eyes at me. I start twitching then I get up. My friends were at the door waiting for me.

"Later mom."

"Bye son, have a nice day at school." I hug my mom then leave out.



My friends, well our little clique of friends, and I started heading towards Liv's house. Which was very nerve racking to me, I mean in a total of 4 blocks, I was going to ask her out. I had some competition along with me, well 2 other people out of our 6 people group. There was Joe and Debbie, yeah Debbie, she was our bisexual friend. Since middle school Debbie's been trying to get Liv to go out with her, she's what you would say, desperate. I mean Liv's not bisexual or lesbian, and no matter how many times she tries to ask Liv out she always says no and gives her the sexuality talk. Joe was different he was like this prince that the girls at school liked. Liv, Deb, and Andrea were glad that he was our friend; he was one of the nicest, sexiest dudes in school. I was just the dude who the girls sent to do stuff for them, you know the can you buy me a pop type, get me some tissue dude. Well it was time; we arrived at Liv's house. I think I just froze.

"Hey Liv." Debbie tells Olivia as she walks out from her front porch and gives her a hug. I kind of stand behind one of our taller male friends, and it has been working; nobody's said anything about how much I change.

"What's up guys? Where's Elliot?" Oh my God, I think I died, she said my name.

"I'm here." I came from the dude's back side. Their jaws like literally drop, Olivia is just staring at me. Andrea is like stuck on my face and Debbie, well she did her eyebrows in that weird way she does when she's like 'Oh really'.

"Wow, you look HOT!!" Olivia tells me as she gives me a hug. "Wow, your braces are gone, the pimples are like over, you lost weight, and you're taller than me, and you smell good."

She noticed me. That's all I ever wanted. Olivia backs away from the hug and Andrea just spins me around followed up by an, "Your hot". We all laugh and start walking towards the school. We're all walking 3x2 now, and its Liv and me in the back, the rest of the guys are like half a block away from us. "Hurry up!" John tells us as they begin to get even more ahead. Here, I go, I'm going to do it.

"Olivia, can I talk to you?"



"Sure." I take her arm and we go behind the bush to avoid being scene from our friends.

"There's been something I've wanted to ask you."

She looked at me stunned. "What is it?"

Here I go. "Will you go out with me?" I ask her as I put my hand on the back of my head and start scratching it.

Olivia looks at me and smiles. "Elliot, you're my best friend, so yeah, I'll go out with you."

"Really?" I feel my eyes go big.

"Yeah, of course, I mean, it might be weird at first for me, but I think it can work."

"Alright." Ok now I'm getting cheesy, I start smiling and acting as if I just got this really cool rare thing for Christmas.

"You ok Elliot; don't have a heart attack on me."

"I won't." We get from around the bush when our friends pop out and scream, "Got It." It seems that Joe brought his camera with him again, like he does every year, and now he has me asking Olivia will she be my girlfriend. They all look at us. Deb looks hurt but Andrea is constantly congratulating us as if we're expecting. High School was going to be great.

TBC?

A/N: So how was it? Should I continue? Read and Review, I'm going to do Olivia's POV next chapter, so I'm going to flip between the 2 of them.
