The next day, Savannah was really, really happy. It got to the point where she went round grinning like a mad person.

"What is up with you?" I said, during our usual smoking break.

"Oh nothing," she said, still madly grinning.

"Savannah Valentine, spill!" I said.

"Okay, okay," she said, taking a deep breath. "Well I went over to Paul's last night and-"

"No way!" I interrupted. "You were at his house?"

"Yes," she continued. "Anyway, I apologised for slapping him then we went back to my house and my parents weren't in, thank god, so we were in my room, kissing and doing cute stuff,"

She saw the look on my face. "No we didn't do it, I'm not a slut!" she giggled. "We just talked and held hands and it was really nice, but we're not planning an official relationship,"

I raised an eyebrow. "So you spontaneously just made out, yet you're not planning an official relationship?" I snorted. "You can't lie to me my friend,"

Later on that day I was walking home and John came out of nowhere and fell in to step with me.

"Lennon," I said, nodding.

"O'Kelly," he grinned.

"What's up?"

"Oh nothing really, I was just really bored so I decided I'd walk you home," he smiled and laced his fingers in mine. I laughed.

"What?" he said, bemused.

"Nothing, it's just you're supposed to be a big tough guy and here you are holding hands with me in broad daylight. It's just…weird, that's all," I replied.

"Well, you're supposed to hate me and you're doing the same thing," he remarked.

"We're supposed to hate each other," I said.

"Fair point,"

We walked for a while, just chatting about school and stuff until we came to the flats.

"Well son, I'll probably be seeing you around," I said, kissing him on the cheek.

"Ciara wait," he said, taking a deep breath. "Ever since that day in the fields, there's something I've wanted to ask you,"

"What?" I said, fearing what was coming next.

"Ciara O'Kelly, would you fancy being my bird?" he asked, grinning.

I didn't know if he was having me on or not. No one had ever asked me to go steady with them. I just looked at John apprehensively, then I started to back away to the door of the flats.

"Ey, what's wrong?" said John, grabbing my wrist and looking at me concernedly.

I gulped and looked at the ground. "I don't know if I can do that," I said uncertainly.

"Look, I know you've heard things about me and that I've slept around and yeah I have, but Ciara, you're different. You're the first girl I've ever fallen in love with," he said, sounding genuine.

I looked up and met his eyes. "Is that for real or are you just saying that?"

His brown eyes searched mine and looked at me which told me he was telling the truth.

I smiled and leant up to kiss him.

"I think I love you too," I whispered.
