Artemis POV
I sighed as I walked to my locker.
Yesterday was so boring at the shop without Wally.
And even worst at night I couldn't get him off my mind.
And to make it worse it had been raining since yesterday, ironic huh?
I grumpily opened my locker.
"Wow what happened to you?" Bette asked.
"He likes someone else" I said quietly.
"What are you talking about? He likes you and you like him. He heard you say it" Bette said.
"What?" I asked.
"Dammit! He must have left when you first said you only liked him as a friend!" Bette yelled.
"Bette? What are you talking about?" I asked.
Bette sighed.
"well Wally wanted to know what you felt about him so I came up with the plan to show him that you did and yesterday he was hiding and listening to our conversation and must have left after you said you only liked him as a friend" she explained.
"But I said I did like him" I said.
"Yeah but he didn't hear that part because he left" she explained.
So I was the girl that made he feel like that yesterday?
He really liked me that much?
"Where is he?" I asked.
"Dick told me he didn't come to school today" she replied.
"What am I gonna do? I can't skip the rest of school! And I really need to talk to him" I said.
"Wait till after schools at work, I mean if he misses another day of work he is probably gonna get fired" Bette suggested.
"Right" I said.
…
The whole school day had been dreadfully long.
That's why when they finally bell rang I didn't bother to go to my locker.
I had my homework folder already and I could go home with my parents.
When I got to the shop I tossed my umbrella in the employee lounge without looking-or caring and started looking for Wally.
He was already at the cash register taking orders and filling them.
I walked over to him.
"Hey Wally-"
"Sorry can't talk" he said quietly.
He really thought I didn't like him.
I frowned.
30 minutes later he was on break.
"Hey Wally can we-"
"I gotta go use the bathroom" he said quickly and ran to the men's room.
And finally at the end of the day when it was time for him to leave.
"Wally!" I yelled.
He turned and saw me then quickly left the shop without an umbrella.
I ran outside following him.
Why did he have to be for fast?
"Wally!" I yelled when I finally caught up with him.
He turned.
"What Artemis!? You wanna know why I've been ignoring you? It's because I can't handle being around you! You clearly only like me as a friend and I like you so much more than that! This all started as some sort of game but now I really do like you and-and-" he stopped.
I was shocked.
"You know what just forget it" he said quietly looking down.
It was silent.
The only thing heard was the sound of raindrops on the pavement.
"Wally…" I said.
"Just forget I said anything" he said.
"But I don't want to forget" I said.
He looked up.
"What?"
"I like you Wally okay! Bette told me about her plan and if you stayed you would have heard me admit it that I do like you" I said.
He said nothing.
"And when I found you on the track field talking about some girl breaking your heart that hurt me. And now I know that the girl was me and I have been trying to-"
Wally had placed both of his hands on my wet face.
I looked at him.
All of him was perfect.
His green eyes, his red hair which extremely sexy when it was wet and his lips, his perfectly soft looking lips.
"I should have done this a long time ago" he whispered before planting his lips onto mine.
I quickly kissed back.
This felt different from any kiss I had ever gotten.
It felt right; like it was meant to be.
Our lips moved in perfect synch.
He pulled away a big smile on his face.
"So…"
"So…aren't gonna ask me out on a date?" I asked.
He chuckled that amazing chuckle of his.
"Artemis would you like to spend the weekend being sick with me?" he asked.
I laughed.
"I'd love to" I said.
