That night I received a text from Lysander
[text from: Lysander]
"Good night Caity I had fun to night and I hope you did as well, sweet dreams."
"Ah man, the cuter he gets the faster I feel like im going to fall for him…" I thought to myself oh well.
Next morning Rose called me.
"Hey Caity I'm having a few friends over and I want to know if you would like to come, Lysander is coming" she said giggling.
"Sure what time" I said ignoring her remark
"4:00 pm, don't be late ill text you my address" she said as she hung up.
"Okay so I'm going to do my homework and then I'll make my way over there." I thought to myself.
I was working on my homework all day and when I checked the clock it had said 2:00.
"oh my god its 2 already?" I put my black skinny jeans on, and purple ruffled tank top, put my hair up and my twisty pig tails. And my usual makeup and I was out the door "I have a pretty good idea on where it is so I'll walk" I thought to myself. The air was cool, you can hear the wind brushing through the trees, every once in a while a leaf or two would fall. I started getting goose bumps I'm pretty cold..
I saw a car stop right beside me, and Lysander came out of the passenger side.
"Hello Caity might I accompany you?" he said smiling
"Yes please"
Leigh waved and he drove to Rose's house. I put my hands on my arms to block the wind from touching me.
"Are you cold?" Lysander spoke in a very soft voice.
"Um yeah kind of, I should have grabbed a sweater from my dorm."
At that moment Lysander took off his coat and put it around my shoulder. I blinked trying to hold back the blush in my cheeks.
"Won't you be cold?" I asked him
"No my shirt is pretty thick and besides I like the cold" Lysander smiling reassuringly at me.
We got to Rose's house pretty quick and we were immediately got greeted at her door.
Her house was gorgeous; it wouldn't be a surprise if she was rich as well.
The rest of the guests had arrived, and she introduced us her other friends. All of them were so attractive, I feel a bit out of place. Normally those type of people would never talk to me. They all looked like they went to good schools and had lots of money. I kept thinking that I was probably the lease attractive person in the room. Lysander were talking to each other when a guy who was friends with Rose came over to me, he had long blonde skater hair, with an earring in his left ear. He was tall but not taller than Lysander, the guy also had blue eyes, he was really cute.
"Hello beautiful my name is Kyle. What's yours?" he asked in a deep voice.
"Caity" I said. Not looking him in the eyes.
"Beautiful name" he now looked at Lysander who looked upset.
"Are you her boyfriend?" he said almost mocking Lysander.
What came out of Lysander's mouth surprised me.
"Yes I am, now I would appreciate it if you left us alone" Lysander looking Kyle right in the eyes, with an angry look.
"Oh sorry man, didn't mean to interrupt, She's hot keep her on a short leash" he said walking away.
My heart was racing with Lysander's comment. I could feel how hot my face, I was as red as a cherry.
"Sorry Caity, I just didn't like him flirting with you" Lysander looking embarrassed.
"No, no its fine I said, I liked it." I said not realizing what I had said.
Rose came over to us and asked to speak to Lysander alone for a bit so they left; I stayed where myself and Lysander stood. He came back shortly after with his face bright red.
"You okay?" I asked
"Hmm? Oh yes, don't worry about me" he said smiling at me.
Rose called everyone to her basement and for us to sit in a circle.
She then put a bottle on the ground and told us were all playing spin the bottle, and no matter who it lands on we have to kiss. My heart sank, I didn't want to see Lysander kissing another girl.
She gave it to a girl who span it, it landed on Kyle so they started kissing, I felt so awkward. It went in a circle who got to spin it, and it was turn. I held my breath and span it. It stopped quickly.
"It landed on Lysander, who across from me. He smiled and got up to me, he handed out his hand. I took it and he and I walked to where no one else can see us, we stood in front of a large window with the moon light beaming on us. I looked at him, he was looking at me with a shy smile. He rubbed my cheek with his thumb, and tilt my chin up. His face slowly got closer to mine and he stopped an inch away.
"This is just a game, if you don't want to, we don't have to.: he said in a whisper
"No I want to! I've wanted for a while, but I didn't think you wanted to, because you never seemed like you were interested in me, which hurt me because I like you.. Er… I mean… " I babbled on.
"Shhh, I wanted to as well, and if I can be honest, I would have been devastated if it landed on anyone else but me"
"Why?" I wanted to hear him say it
"Because I've always been quit smitten with you" He moved my hair behind my ear, and took my face in his hands and he placed his lips on mine. My heart was beating, he continued to kiss me. He then made the kiss deeper, he started using his tongue, the moment his tongue touched mine, I got all tingly. I didn't want it to stop. He put his hands on my waist and pushed my body to his. I took a step back. My back was up against the wall. Lysanders body was still pressed up against mine. I put my arms around his neck. I could feel myself getting turned on. He was also. I felt a bit of a buldge coming from him, but in the heat of the moment neither one of us cared. I guess we were kissing for a long time because someone came looking for us.
"Bang bang" we heard coming from a couple feet away from us. We stopped and looked to see what it was.
It was one of Rose's friends, she told us that Rose wanted us. Lysander and I looked at each other, we were both blushing.
"I apologize that was inappropriate of me" he said.
"nothing to apologize for, I liked it. " I said
When we got to the circle, everyone was looking at us. Rose was smiling widely. "So I guess you two had fun" she said.
"Yes we did, but I must leave" he said
"Me too" I said right after him.
Rose said good bye and we left.
Lysander and I started walking back the dorms. We barely said much but there wasn't much to say. He held my hand in his. He stopped walking. So I did to.
"Is something wrong?" I asked.
"I don't how to begin to tell you everything I want to, but I'll try" he said looking right into my eyes.
"I think you may know this now but, I really am Smitten with you. I think everything about you is perfect, I know were friends but I can't hide my feelings anymore."
I kissed him.
"I like you too, It's about time this happen" I said giggling. "So what do we do now?"
"I think that we should be together" he said.
"I agree! So were boyfriend and girlfriend now?"
"yes" he said smiling.
We kissed again, but this time it was a softer kiss than our make out session at Rose's house.
