Illegal
You play it again and again until your mum comes in and turns it off herself (instead of just shouting at you to turn it off). Her attempts fail though. Infact they just provoke you to play the music louder and for longer than you first intended. After that she gets the point and doesn't shout at you anymore. This makes you smirk however it doesn't make you as happy as it should.
Eventually it gets to the point where you can't even remember this songs relevance. Then, suddenly, before you can even begin to rewind your mind, it hits you. This is his favourite song.
Him. The boy you can't ever be with. It's wrong on so many levels. Well in your mind anyway. To your best friend Emily it isn't quite like that. She thinks it's a good idea and that you both would be so much happier if you went ahead with it. You can't listen to her though as you think your mother would definatly disapprove. Then again you should maybe listen to Emily as for one she's your best friend and also she is almost always right.
Curious you get up and sit in front of your desk just to check if it is as wrong as you think. Opening your laptop you find a word document open with three words on it. Shocked you bang the computer shut again.
Turning you see him leaning on the inside of your doorway. On strict impulse you stand and walk towards him, ending up closer than intended. So many questions were pulsing through your head in those few seconds it took to cross the room. However, before you open your mouth he speaks himself.
"Emily rang earlier. Nora was gonna come up and give you the phone but instead tossed it to me. So, naturally, I checked to see who was calling you, you know to disturb your private life and all that, but when I picked up Emily was screaming trying to tell Nora it was me she wanted to talk to. She told me that you have been talking about me a lot and muttering about stuff being illegal. She was really worried about you 'Case. She wanted to know if I knew anything but I didn't. Then after thinking awhile, I put two and two together, did a bit of research and when you were in the loo, I snuck in here and wrote those three words."
He stops talking and then it happens. It's the quickest kiss you have ever experienced but by far the best.
You break apart and both grin sheepishly. As you lean in for more, one question appears in your mind that he didn't answer in his explanation. You try to forget it but the closer you get to touching his lips again it just screams louder and louder. It won't go away so, just millimetres away from his lips you ask that one question.
"Did you like me when I thought liking you was illegal?"
