Sitting against a tree, Adam and I sat waiting for Eli to hangout. We were both just sitting, happily, listening to some Katy Perry on my iPod. Adam not once complaining that my music was too bright and peppy, as Eli had once critiqued.
Ugh. He drove me mad, but yet the crush never went away. Then again, it was more than just a crush. Way more. We knew each other on more private, personal level. He was always hot and cold. But I was giving him some "time" to get over his dead ex-girlfriend. Yeah. Just my luck.
"And here he is!" Adam chuckled, looking up at Eli who was smirking. "What've you guys been doin-" Adam cut Eli off by singing the chorus of Teenage Dream, very off key, might I add.
"You make me, feel like I'm living a, teenage dream, the way you turn me on; I can't sleep…", Adam grinned and stood up and bowed for me and Eli as we laughed.
"Really, Adam?" Eli said between breaths. "Hey! It's on Clare's iPod. Beggers can't be choosers. And I love me some Katy Perry." Adam smiled as Eli rolled his eyes.
"Hey, Katy Perry is a good singer and I like her music, thank you very much!" I spoke up defensively.
"Yeah, if you like girls dancing around in candy bikini's singing about California." He smiled haughtily. "Okay, that is California Girls, a completely different song. Get it right, Adam was singing Teenage Dream." I snapped. "Whatever, they're both songs without a meaning." He concluded.
"Teenage Dream, is about a girl wanting to be with the guy she likes. And how she has the chance to be and how they're going to be amazing together and how they love each other." I exploded, "The boy has guts too! He likes her and is willing to be with her! And this so called "time" he has spent "thinking" things over, he was flirting with her leading her o-" I stopped short when I realized what I was talking about. Uh-oh.
Eli looked astonished. Adam's mouth was hanging open. I had forgotten he was here. Oy vey. They probably think I'm mental. Oh, who am I kidding, I am mental.
"Well…I'm gonna leave…so you two can…talk." Adam said awkwardly, walking away.
Eli turned to me, with this crazy determined look on his face. He advanced towards me quickly and grabbed my face softly with his hands, passionately kissing me in the process. Let me tell you, this boy has got some niccccceeee lips. Real soft and warm. I felt myself getting light-headed. This boy…I swear. "Get it!" I heard Adam yell from behind a nearby tree.
Eli immediately pulled back and whispered, "Let's run away and don't ever look back."
Now it was my turn to smirk, "Quoting Katy I see, hmm..?" "Oh just hush up and kiss me."
And that I did.
