Me and Ric sat in detention, Brad watching over us like eagles.
"One word to eachother and beware." he warned.
We had been skipped class to go to the school oval and we'd been caught kissing...
I glanced over to see if Brad's eyes were on his newspaper, and flicked my eyes across the room to meet up with Ric's loving gaze. My lips stretched into a tiny smile, teasing him by not giving him a full grin. He rolled his eyes and drew a heart in the air with his finger.
I blew him a kiss but still didn't smile. This was a game I often played with Ric when other people were around. It was just a sign of our love. Also I enjoyed teasing him, because I knew one of his favourite things about me was my smile.
"Smile, Mattie." he mouthed at me across the room.
I made sure Brad was still reading, and poked my tongue out childishly at Ric. His deep blue eyes twinkled and I felt a familar surge of love through my body. When Lucas and I had dated, we kissed and stuff but it wasn't love. I didn't feel electrifyed when he looked at me. My head didn't spin when he smiled at me. Ric gave me an encouraging smile, silently begging me to give him one back. I raised my eyebrows and although I didn't want it to, my mouth stretched a little further. He smirked. Before I knew it, I couldn't control the urge. I just couldn't resist the gorgeous boy sitting a few desks away. Forgetting about Brad, about consequences, I flung myself into Ric's arms. He didn't seem to care about Brad either, because we were soon caught in a passionate kiss. You know, I wasn't thinking straight then, and I probably wouldn'tve don't it if I could go back in time. But something weird happened. Brad saw it, alright. But we didn't have to stay longer in detention. Actually, I think the love was contagious. He didn't even make us stay longer in detention! He just tutted and said, "Guys, guys, this is school." Me and Ric were ready for a few weeks detention at least but we were so surprised when he let us go without even yelling or anything! That's a story me and Ric will definitely tell our kids. If (or as I like to say,) when we have our kids:)
