It was Wednesday. Hump day! School's been so much enjoyable since I met the boys.
Especially Logan.
He shows up at my locker in between every class.
Sounds like something a boyfriend would do, right? Sadly, he hasn't even talked about dating yet. But we would soon enough, I hope.
Anyways, Hannah, Danielle and I started sitting with the boys at lunch and we all hung out during the break before 3rd period.
We were all one big clique you could say. But everyone usually had their disagreements.
Like today at lunch, everyone was bickering over what we should do this weekend.
"We should all go see a movie!" Kendall exclaimed.
"BORING! Let's go shopping!" Danielle yelled.
"No, no, no! We should all gaze at my beauty the entire time."
"NO!" Everyone yelled.
We all laughed as James put down his mirror and crossed his arms.
Then, the idea hit me. I had the perfect plan.
"Guys! How about we go to the new amusement park the put in across town?"
Everyone began nodding at each other and agreeing with quiet a "Yeah" or "That would be cool."
Logan spoke up, "Alright, all in favor, raise your hand."
Everyone raised their hand, except for James, who was still pouting.
Carlos looked over and grabbed one of his hands and raised it for him.
Logan, being the nerd he is, tried to make an itinerary.
"So everyone's cool with Saturday, right? We'll meet in the school parking lot at 1 o'clock, which will get us to the park by 1:30, if traffic isn't crazy. We'll spend all day in the park and hit up dinner that night. Cool?"
Everyone nodded in response and I patted him on the back.
"Nice strategy, Logan."
He smiled at me, "Thanks, Kelsey."
Just then, the bell rang and we all went our seperate ways to class.
The next day, Danielle told me she couldn't go to the park.
She was being forced to go to a family reunion by her mom. Oh well.
There was still the 6 of us.
Friday came and went, and that night I was doing homework in my room whenever I got a text from Logan.
Hey, Kendall's out for tomorrow.
I replied back, Why?
Not even 2 minutes later, I had a reply.
He got called into work and he really needs the money so he can't call off.
I was kinda disappointed that two people dropped out of our big plans.
Oh, I see. Well that sucks.
I guess there's still 5 of us.
Yeah. Or you and me could just go and spend the day alone ;)
I giggled and even blushed a little bit, even though he couldn't see me.
As much as I'd love that, we can't ditch our friends. But thanks for the offer :)
I love the fact that Logan's such a nerd, but he could also be a flirt.
He texted back saying, You're welcome :) I'm so excited to see you tomorrow.
He always knew how to make me smile.
Me too! :D
It was 10 o'clock, so I decided to lay down and text Logan until I fell asleep.
The next morning, I woke up, showered, ate breakfast and began getting ready for the day.
I was really excited to spend time with my friends.
I walked downstairs and greeted my mom in the living room.
"Hey mom, if I get in late tonight, don't wait up, okay?"
"Okay sweetie. Who are you going with?"
"Well, Kendall and Danielle were supposed to go, but they both have other things to do so it's just gonna be me, Logan, Hannah, Carlos and James."
A sly smile crept onto her face.
"Isn't Logan the boy who was here the other night?"
I sighed, "Yes mom."
I knew exactly where this conversation was going.
"He's very cute. He likes you, Kelsey."
I blushed, "How can you tell?"
She got up from the couch and walked over to me.
"Kelsey, you're a beautiful girl. How could he resist you?"
I rolled my eyes, "Mom. I need a factual answer, please."
She looked me right in the eyes, "Honey, when he looks at you, his whole face lights up. There's something in his eyes that just says it all. Anyone with a brain can see it."
And with that, she hugged me, and walked down into the basement to do some laundry.
I simply shrugged and went upstairs to finish getting ready.
'Anyone with a brain can see it? Well then, I must not have a brain because I don't see it.'
While I was getting ready, my phone buzzed.
I already knew who it was, so I instantly smiled when I read the text.
Hey gorgeous :) Wanna carpool?
I smiled and replied, Sure thing. Your car or mine?
I finished up my makeup whenever he texted back.
Mine will do, since I'm already in it. I'll be there in ten minutes.
I smiled as I typed the word 'Okay' into my phone.
I walked over to my closet and debated on what to wear. I decided on light skinny jeans, my black converse and a gray v-neck shirt with a white tank top underneath.
I sprayed perfume, put on one of my many jackets, and ran downstairs to see Logan waiting for me outside.
I grabbed some money from my parent's stash drawer and ran outside to his car.
"Hey there."
"Hey." I said as I jumped into the passenger seat.
We exchanged smiles after I buckled up and he took off down the road.
"How are you today?"
"I'm pretty good. What about you?"
He looked at me and quickly winked, "I'm better now."
I blushed and began fidgeting with the radio to avoid the awkward silence.
Our local station was playing 'Teenage Dream' by Katy Perry, so I left it there.
"I love this song!"
Logan laughed as he turned it up.
I began singing to it and I got pretty into it, so I started dancing...really badly.
Logan ended up laughing at me so hard, he almost forgot to pull into the school parking lot.
Carlos and Hannah were already there in Carlos' car, but James was no where in sight.
Logan rolled down his window and yelled at Carlos.
"Where's James?"
Carlos rolled his eyes, "He texted me and said he got sick."
Logan scoffed, "Yeahhh right. He's probably just mad that we didn't wanna stare at his face all day."
I laughed and waved to Hannah in the other car.
"Yeah or he couldn't come to grips with the fact that he would be the only one that wouldn't have a girl close to him like we do."
Carlos then wrapped his arm around Hannah and she blushed 10 shades of red.
It was no surprise that Carlos and Hannah would probably be dating by the end of the day. They were practically a match made in heaven.
But Logan and I, were we going to be an item?
"Well, we could just go in our cars like this and meet there. Cool?"
"Yeah, that's cool."
Awesome. More alone time with Logan. Just what I need.
Carlos nodded and rolled up his window and Logan did the same, then we drove off towards the city.
We sat there, just listening to the radio whenever I felt my phone vibrate.
I opened up a text from Hannah.
OMG! This is pretty much a double date!
I laughed, earning a look from Logan. He always thought it was a good idea to look at me while driving. Smart boy.
I texted back saying, I know! It feels awkward , but I guess that's how most girls feel around their crushes.
I sat there and smiled.
The sun was out, but it was a little chilly.
"Okay, what's with the grin?"
I looked at Logan and smiled even bigger.
"Do you know what this is?"
"Well, technically, this is a car and we're-"
"No! I mean, today. Right now. What we're doing with Carlos and Hannah."
He shrugged, "I don't know."
I smiled and giggled, "We're on a double date!"
He looked at me and smirked.
"Heh. Okay. I think I already knew that."
I sat there and semi-pouted. But I wasn't sad. I was happy that he recognized this as a date.
I continued pouting until he reached over and grabbed my hand.
"Hey. No date of mine is going to sit there and pout. Even if the pouting is fake."
I slowly looked at him and grinned.
Something about this kid made me feel absolutely goofy.
I don't feel like I need to impress him to get him to like me. We could be doing anything and we'd still have a good time.
Apprently I was staring off into space because I felt Logan poking me in the face.
I turned to look at him.
"Can I help you?"
He laughed at me. "We're here."
I looked out the window and saw that he was right.
There were some roller coasters, games, a big ferris wheel, and other attractions.
We got out of the car and met Carlos and Hannah at the entrance, who were holding hands.
"Hey party people!" Carlos shouted.
Hannah ran over and hugged me. She almost knocked me over!
"Hello to you, too!"
We laughed and she whispered something in my ear.
"Can you believe we're actually with some super sweet guys for once!"
I laughed as she was beaming at me.
Luckily, neither of the boys heard what Hannah had said. They probably would've taken it as a compliment anyways.
Hannah and I haven't always had the best luck with guys in the past.
We were both stuck in a situation with some older boys my freshman year and her 7th grade year.
But I wasn't going to think about that now.
I walked over to the entrance, paid for my ticket and ran into the park with Hannah following close behind.
"Roller coasters, here we come!"
Hannah and I ran off towards the first one we saw. Carlos and Logan looked at each other, shrugged and ran after us.
2 HOURS LATER
Logan and I were walking around the park, alone. We had lost Carlos and Hannah at least a half hour ago.
We had rode on everything in the park, but it was still daylight so we were just walking around the park.
"So, what do you wanna do now?"
I looked at him and shrugged, "I don't know. I think we've done everything in the park."
He looked at me with wide eyes and a grin. Oh no, he had something planned.
"Not everything."
He grabbed my hand and we walked to a secluded area by the outside of the park. We reached a fence that had a sign hanging from it saying 'No Trespassing'.
Logan looked from his left and to his right, then swiftly jumped the fence.
My jaw dropped. "Logan Mitchell! I had no idea that you could be a bad boy."
He winked at me and reached for my hand.
I took a quick look around and grabbed his hand. I jumped the fence like it was a hurdle and we ran off down the path leading into the woods.
Yes, the woods. Big woop, right?
That's what I thought but I could tell that Logan had something up his sleeve just by the look on his face.
Just the thought of him breaking the rules was a turn on.
What am I thinking? We aren't even dating, but I'm already having fantasies about him?
Who can blame me?
We stopped running after awhile and stopped to catch our breath.
"We should be far away from everyone else now."
I looked around and saw that we were deep in the woods by a little stream.
I looked up at him, "So, what is this that's so important that we needed to break park rules?"
He smirked back at me, "You'll see."
I've always hated surprises.
We started walking further into the woods until we started walking uphill to a spot that overlooked the woods. We were walking side by side, hand in hand, until Logan let go and placed his arm around my waist.
He held onto me securely. It was so sweet.
"Ah, here we are."
I looked up to see another path leading to a cliff that was at the top of the woods.
We walked up it and found ourselves in a scenic overlook spot with a small parking lot and a gazeebo.
I gazed out and saw a breathtaking view of the woods. The sun was just now setting and everything was drenched in oranges and purples from the sky.
You could even see the park in the distance.
"Wow...Logan, how did you know this was up here?"
"I didn't, to be honest. I just wanted a nice place where we could watch the sunset, alone."
I smiled at him. The sun was shining directly on his face, making his eyes gleam. He looked like an angel sent down from heaven straight to me.
I moved closer to him and wrapped my arms around his waist and put my head on his chest. He responded by wrapping his arms around my shoulders.
I listened closely to the sound of his heart beat speeding up.
Need I remind you that we're not even dating? Embracing each other like this wasn't something 'friends' did.
I was so confused on if Logan was on the same page as me.
My thought were interrupted by his deep sighing.
"What is it?" I looked up at him and saw he was confused about something.
He looked down at me and got a serious look on his face.
He started to lean in, and before I could interject, his lips were gently pressing against mine.
It was so soft, so short. We parted and looked at each other.
But not even 5 seconds later, we were kissing again. This time, with more passion.
Neither of us pulled away. In fact, I placed my arms around his neck and he put one hand on my neck to deepen the kiss.
I slowly reached up and tangled my hands in his hair.
I felt completely weightless. It was an amazing feeling.
Finally, we both pulled away and rested our foreheads together.
I had the biggest smile on my face and so did he.
I closed my eyes and sighed as he pulled me into a hug.
"Kelsey?"
"Hmm?"
"Will you be my girlfriend?"
Finally, Logan got on my page.
I looked up at him and pecked him on the lips.
"Yes, I will."
He smiled and yelled at the top of his lungs.
"WOO HOOOO!"
He picked me up and spun me around until I was screaming too.
"Logannnn! Put me downnn! I'm gonna throw up!"
I started laughing as he kept spinning me, obviously not caring that I was gonna puke down his back.
He finally put me down and grabbed my hand. We followed the road back to the park, hand in hand.
