Reversed Connections

Chapter Seven:Lucky

Maxie decided on a pair of tight fitting jeans and a new blouse that Georgie had bought her. She brushed her hair and looked in the mirror smiling. Her cell phone went off, picking it up she answered

"Hello." "Hey, Just wanted to let you know I am out front." "Okay be right there."

Maxie grabbed her jacket and raced downstairs.She made her way out of the house before anyone knew she had left. She didn't feel up to hearing Mac lecture her on the rules of the house. As she opened the door a smile creep ed across her face. There he stood sitting on the side of his car looking down at the ground. Walking toward him she seen his head look up to meet her eyes.

Damian was standing there waiting on Maxie to walk out, alittle nervous about what to say or do. He had his head down to the ground thinking of different things to talk about when he heard a noise that sounded like a door being shut so he looked up and his heart melted. The guys were right she had changed. Something about her was way different than before. His heart skipped more beats than he knew. His mouth was all dry and he had the biggest lump in his throat. He looked at her smiling

"Hey." "Hey. We better get out of here before Mac comes out inter gating you for being here so late." "Okay lets go." Damian walks with her over to the other side of the car. Opening it up he lets her get in. He shuts the door walking back over to his side getting in. They didn't speak two words as they riding. Then finally Damian spoke

"So where would you like to go so we can talk?" "Anywhere is fine." "Okay, well how about lookout point?" "Isn't that where all the kids go and make out?" "Yeah but we don't have to do that. I just want to be able to talk to you in person and privately." "okay then."

They drove to lookout point. Damian parked the car cutting off the engine. He shifted to where his body was facing hers. God she looked so beautiful tonight. She wasn't decked out in fancy clothes but the way her eyes sparkled and the way her lips curled every time she spoke made him go crazy more.

"So what did you want to talk to me about?"

" I wanted to apologize for the other day."

"Like I said Damian, there is no need for an apology."

"Yeah but I think I was out of line by me trying to almost kiss you."

"Why did you not want to or something?"

" I didn't say that."

"You are still dating my sister right?"

"No we were never really dating. She just wanted to say we were so she wouldn't lose popularity points at school"

"Ahhh"

"The thing is Maxie..." Damian looked away from her looking out the window. Maxie could tell he wanted to say something but just didn't know how to say it. She felt the same exact way.

"You like me?"

"Of course I like you, Why would you think I didn't like you?"

"I don't know. Not a whole lot of guys liked me before."

"before?"

"Yeah before my sister turned me into this beauty queen persona."

" I did." Damian slaps himself mentally he couldn't believe he just said that. But he was glad though

Maxie blushes alittle "You did?"

" Yeah see Maxie, Ever since I first saw you and talked to you I wanted to get to know you better. So I asked you to help me with school"

" So you tricked me into helping you just so you could get close to me?"

"Yeah and I found myself liking you more and more. But I didn't want to push because I was afraid you would build up that wall again like before."

"Damian, how do you think this will work? I mean I am not popular like my sister."

"Who cares! I like you and I am hoping you like me too?"

"What do you think?"

Damian leans over inches away from her face looking her in her eyes. At that moment he wanted to grab her in his arms and kiss her.

" I am going to count to ten and then I am going to kiss you. If you don't want me to then your just going to have to stop me."

Maxie almost laughed at how he used the old line from Dawson's Creek but she smiled anyways looking into his eyes. Before he could get to eight she inched herself closer to him locking her lips with his. She wrapped her arms around his neck. He placed his hands around her holding her tightly to him. Their bodies fit well with one another. Her kiss was magical to him. He had kissed alot of girls but this was different, it was more special. After a few moments they pull away from each others lips but still he kept holding on to her as she did the same to him.

"So Maxie?"

" Yea." "Where do we go from here?"

" Where are you wanting this to go?"

"I am hoping you would be my girlfriend?"

Maxie smiled and was very quiet. Damian got nervous not sure if she was ready for that next step. After a few seconds.

"I'd love to be your girlfriend."

Damian smiled kissing her again. Maxie had just made him the luckiest man on earth.

TBCI think this is my shortest chapter yet but hope you all love it anyways lol
