The Boy Next Door!
Chapter 4
Eve's P.O.V
The more I thought about tonight the more it made me nervous. I had imagined Michael taking me out on a date but now the time had actually come I had no idea what to expect.
He hadn't told me where he was taking me either which made me even more nervous.
As soon as I got home from school I had spent my time in the bath, finding the perfect outfit and making sure I looked good, words couldn't explain how much I liked Michael so nothing can go wrong tonight because I felt like this is my only chance with him...as silly as that may sound.

I Looked at my phone and read the text from Michael
Michael: I'm outside x
I quickly checked myself in the mirror before grabbing my bag and rushed downstairs.
"Be back soon!" I shouted to my parents...I honestly don't know why though, they probably didn't even care. I made my way out my house and towards Michaels car, he grinned at me as soon as I sat down.
"You look nice" He grinned making me smile and I looked forward to try and hide the fact that I was blushing.
"So where are we going?"I asked as he started driving.
Michael smiled "You'll see"
Even in the car I couldn't seem to calm down...my heart was pounding and I felt really hot. Seriously I had been best friends with him for years and now I decide to be really nervous around him, great. When Michael parked the car I instantly knew where he had taken me and I glanced at him before getting out the car...just to make sure I knew for sure we were in the right place.
"The beach?" I questioned and he nodded as he opened the boot of his car and pulled out a basket.
"I figured we could go back and redo the beach party. Make it like how it was suppose to happen" He told me, he then grabbed my hand and leaded me to the beach where he set out a blanket, candles food and drinks.
"So you want to recreate the beach party?" I asked him and he nodded as he sat down. Well, I wasn't expecting that, I figured he'd take me to a restaurant or something...just somewhere simple. But Michael had really thought about this and just the thought of Michael going out of his way for me made me happy.
"What are you smiling at?" He asked.
"I just cant believe you did this" I say and he gave me a questioning look. "I figured you'd just to me out to dinner but this...this is something else".
"Well I wanted to do something that wasn't simple...and the thought of taking you to dinner on a first day would remind me too much of Shane" He told me. I nodded and smiled and watched him unpack food and drinks... and by drinks I mean alcohol.
"I managed to get some drinks...we had some leftover from the beach party" Michael explained and handed me a glass. Once all the food was out on the blanket he turned and smiled at me and we had the moment of silence just staring at each other.I couldn't help but crack up and laugh and Michael began to laugh with me, but when we stopped laughing I had this burning urge to bring up Melissa...just to check that they were over and that he really did like me.
"Ok so...I don't mean to ruin this moment but I really have to ask...Does this mean that you and Melissa are over now?" I questioned.
Michael smiled and nodded "Yeah, I wanted to end it for a while but...I wanted to try and get over you". Look down trying to hide my blush and I heard him laugh as he lowered his head to see my face.
"Blushing are we?" He asked and I slapped his arm and shook my head.
"Did Shane know about you liking me?" I asked him and he nodded "Wow, so all this time he knew that I liked you a lot and for a very long time may I say and he didn't even say anything?".
"You liked me for a long time?" He questioned and I stopped talking realising what I said.
"Well...I...You see...It wasn't-"
"I've liked you for along time too" He interrupted and I sighed form relief.
It was weird to hear Michael tell me how much he liked me because I've always imagine him saying but never actually believed I would one day hear him say it. But now it was so overwhelming to hear him say those words because Ive wanted this so much. The best thing is that not only did he plan this romantic date, but for hours and hours we had talked about...well...everything. This time it seemed different...like we appreciated each other a lot more and we listened to each other more carefully, it had never been like this before. By the end of the date we were laid down next to each other laughing and drinking and it was honestly so perfect,but as soon as we realised how close we were to each other I stupidly cleared my throat which caused this awkward silence between the two of us, and as Michael checked his phone I wanted to slap myself so hard in the face for messing that moment up.
"Its really late I should be getting you home now" Michael says.
"Ok" Was all I could say and I helped him clear up the food and drinks and place it all back in the basket. Then once again another awkward moment happened because we both reached for the basket and both ended up picking it up and then stared at each other. Why is this happening?
"I got it" Michael grinned and I let go and followed him to the car. As Michael placed the basket in the back of the car, I decided to try and make this...not so awkward.
"I had a really good time tonight" I say walked in front "Like this has been the best night and it really meant a lot to me-"
I would have finished my sentence but Michael grabbed my hand and turned me around and then just kissed me. I admit it caught me by surprise but then I realised that Michael was actually kissing me and I almost melted because...wow. I felt like I was going to burst into flames and it didn't matter how much I grabbed onto him I still felt like I was going to fall into him.
"Well" Michael says as he moved back slightly "It may take a while for you to go home".I giggled and shook my head "I'm sorry, I want to stay but I really have to go".
"Well ok but, we can do this again right?" He asked.
"Hmm, well I'm gong to have to clear my schedule" I joked,making him laugh as he walked round the other side of the car.
The journey home consisted of us laughing and joking and more kissing, before unfortunately I had to leave him and go back home. I couldn't help but smile and think about him, tonight was the best night I could ever ask for and I couldn't get over the fact that I had kissed Michael Glass.

Michael: I really enjoyed tonight, let me take you out again? See you soon, Michael x
I grinned and text him back confirming that I wanted to go out again. Once I placed my phone on the bedside table I closed my eyes and sighed. Life couldn't possibly get any better than this.
