I looked up at him. His deep chocolate brown eyes were still looking at the ground. "Oliver?" I asked. He looked up. He was the most attractive boy I had ever looked at, I couldn't help feeling the way I felt. And his personality definitely didn't help the situation.
I opened my mouth to say something, but as soon as the words were about to come out, I heard, "Oliver! Let's go!" I looked over to see his best friend, and ride waiting for him to come over.
"I have to go." He said quietly.
"Yeah." I said back to him. Then we gave each other a hug. "Bye." I said.
"Bye." He said, smiling. I watched him walk away. I heaved a heavy sigh, and started walking off towards where my friend Carl parked his car. He was my ride home everyday.
"Hey Lilly." He said to me when I finally walked up to him.
"Hey." I said back, as we started off towards his car.
"So what's up?" He awkwardly asked as we started the drive towards my house.
"Nothing really. Today was super boring. Good thing it's Friday. Kinda wish I would relive Homecoming night though."
"Definitely." He smiled, that Homecoming night he had got a girlfriend. The one that I had tried to set him up with. It worked. Him and Annie were now the cute little couple. Much to my dislike. Not that I didn't want them together, I thought they were adorable. It was just that my goal of getting my ex boyfriend/date for homecoming back hadn't worked. I did the stupid thing of thinking by him asking to go with me as friends was a hint he still liked me. It definitely wasn't.
The awkward silence went on as we drove to my house. He pulled up onto my driveway, and I got out of the car. "Thanks for the ride." I said smiling.
"No problem." He smiled back.
I played with my keys as I walked up to the house. I slowly put them into the lock, and unlocked the door. I waited to see my cat run up before I comfortably went inside. She was like the only sign I had that let me know no one was in the house. I was highly highly paranoid, and there was no doubt about it.
I walked over to the computer, and turned it on. Then while waiting for it to start, I walked over to my room. I flopped onto my bed, and before I knew it, I had fallen asleep.
I woke up what looked like five hours later. "Eight o'clock?" I moaned, walking out of my room.
"Yes it is." I heard my mother said, across the hall, in her room. Watching her Friday night television shows.
"Why didn't you wake me up?" I asked.
"You just looked really tired, so I let you sleep."
I walked away into the kitchen. I blindly opened the frig door, and then realized I didn't want any food. "Hello Lilly." My dad said, sitting in the living room, also watching television.
"Hey dad." I walked in there, and gave him a kiss. Then I walked to the computer room.
The computer was definitely warmed up now, and ready to get on. Just like I had left it five hours ealier. I got onto my website and looked, and saw that I had received a few messages. One was from Oliver.
"Hey Lilly." It read.
I wrote back, "Haha. Hey. What is the hap: )"
"Just babysitting my little brother. And just came back from being with some friends. How bout you?"
"Absolutely nothing. I did just wake up from a five hour nap though."
"Haha. Sounds good."
The conversation went on for about an hour. Maybe longer. My parents were now both in bed, and I was just sitting there, looking at the computer screen. Suddenly I opened another message from Oliver, but it was definitely more interesting than any of the other ones. "Lilly can you call me? I'm stupid, and high, and my girlfriend isn't home. And I need someone to talk to."
I looked at the computer screen, my heart kind of sunk while reading girlfriend, I knew he had one but it was still like a slap in the face. Then I realized what else I had just read. I read the message again wide-eyed. "He's what?!" I asked outloud.
"Alright. I'll call in a few minutes." I wrote back to him, after the shocked settled in.
"Thanks. You're amazing."
A few minutes later, I called him. "Hello?" He answered, sounding extremely tired.
"Hey Oliver." I said to him.
"Oh hey Lilly."
"Why are you high?"
"Because my friends were doing it, so I figured I would do it too."
"That's the most retarded reasoning I have ever heard."
"Yeah. I know."
So we sat there for another hour, talking about random shit. But mostly about how we missed last Friday night, which was Homecoming. Instead of hanging out with my date most the time like most people, we hung out. According to him, he was my second date, and I was his first. Since his girlfriend went to a different school, and didn't go to the football game. And the ex, Jeff, barely talked to me. After the game my best friend Miley, and her boyfriend Jake, and me and Oliver went to Friday's (the restaurant) to eat. We were there till about midnight. That night was the funnest night ever.
Now according to him he was sitting in his room, with all the lights off. It sounded like fun, so I did the same thing.
"I still can't believe you put my full ID in your mouth that night." I said to him.
He laughed. "Yeah. My mouth still hurts."
I laughed back with him, I had missed talking to him this much. It was nice to catch up with him this past two weeks.
"I missed this." I said to him.
I could tell he was smiling. "Yeah. I did too."
He started again, "I bet you're smiling right now, aren't you?"
"Of course."
"You have a great smile. You're just plain old adorable." I blushed. "I can't believe I still like you as much as I did before. I never really stopped." My eyes had been closed till he said that, when my eyes opened up. Did he just say what I think he said?
(I changed my mind. It would be wayyyy to long of a oneshot. haha. It'll just be a short story now. Woot. That was fun to write. Reviews please. Tell me what you think.)
