After finally gaining enough courage, I took a deep breathe and screamed. The people around me jumped and even yelled themselves in surprise of my scream. After I finished I sucked in some air to calm my breathing and looked at Eli with a smirk.
"Okay, your turn," I said as I crossed my arms.
"Yeah, not my style," he said and stood slowly.
I stared at him with awe, after publicly embarrassing myself by screaming, he needed to give back. I started after him, he laughed and backed up into a tree.
"You have to... I have to..." I lost my train of thought as he grabbed my wrists and tried to keep me from advancing on him. His smile faded as he stared at me, and I stared back. Back into those bright green eyes of his.
My heart raced and a billion thoughts raced through my head, but the one that scared me the most was the one telling me to kiss him.
I jumped back, realizing that I had just thought that and a blush crept up my cheeks. I hurried to the bench and pretended to fix an imaginary wrinkle to calm myself.
"Uh, I think it's time we head back to school, I promised Alli I'd meet up with her to go to The Dot." I said frantically, packing up my stuff and looking back at Eli. Who was right next to me. And staring at me curiously.
"Are you okay?" He asked.
"Yup. Fine. Perfect actually." I said and walked past Eli towards school.
