12kiss: Great Big Balls of Paper!

The clock ticked away as their teacher droned on about photosynthesis. Which to Lilly's surprise, was not about photography. She listened intently as Oliver struggled to stay awake. He licked his lips as drool dripped from the corners of his mouth. He wiped it away with the ends of his sleeve and continued to rest his cheek against his palm. His eye lids began to slowly close while he drifted off into Lala Land until a scent of strawberries reached his nose. His eyes reopened as Lilly sat farther into her chair, she leaned back and whispered, "Stop falling asleep."

"Yeah, yeah, I know." He groggily answered her.

Oliver sat up straight and re-adjusted himself in his seat. He looked at the teacher, trying his best to concentrate. It worked for a while until the lecture turned into a series of blah's, in which, Oliver began to become drowsy. He looked down to see small balls of paper scattered across his desk. He sighed heavily and rested his cheek on his palm again. He unconsciously flicked the papers as he looked up at the teacher again.

"Hey, Oliver! Quit it." Lilly yelled in a hushed tone.

Oliver sat up straight at the sound of her voice and looked into her eyes, which were full of pure irritation.

"Oh, sorry." He answered nonchalant.

Lilly shook her head and turned back to her notes. Oliver sat there for a few more minutes just staring at the back of Lilly's head. A dreamy look began to spread across his face until he heard snickering, turning his head, he glared daggers at them stifling their laughter.

"Hey Lilly! Lilly!" Oliver whispered leaning closer to her.

"What?" Lilly asked quietly, slightly annoyed.

"Nothing." Oliver shrugged and looked down at his book, turning its pages slowly.

Lilly glared at his mop head and swiftly turned towards the board.

Oliver snickered and continued to call her.

"Lilly, Lilly!" He called again.

Lilly didn't budge, she continued staring up at the board of notes and ignored him.

"Lilly!" Oliver whispered louder and tapped her shoulder lightly.

She jerked her shoulder from his reach and leaned closer to her desk. Oliver stared at the tiny bits of paper on his desk and, once again, flicked them at her head.

The first couple of times Lilly managed to ignore the tiny papers flying at her head, until Oliver started hurling them by the dozen. Lilly tapped her foot loudly against the vinyl tiles, each tap clear with agitation.

"Oliver!" Lilly yelled.

Oliver burst into laughter at the sight of a fuming Lilly with papers sticking out of her hair.

"Oken! Truscott! Pipe down!" The teacher called.

Lilly settled down as Oliver's laugher died down. Oliver smiled as he rolled up a piece of paper into a ball. He aimed it directly at her head and chucked it at her. Lilly's shoulders tensed up as she quickly turned to face him.

"Oli-"

Her words were cut off as Oliver's lips grazed hers. He slowly parted his mouth as Lilly froze with surprise. Just as she was about to respond, the bell rang and Oliver pulled away with a lopsided grin. He stared at Lilly with her closed eyes and pursed lips, he chuckled slightly as her eyes shot open, glaring at him.

"Oliver..." She said sweetly.

"Yes, Lilly." He smiled at her.

Lilly grinned and held his face, her thumb running along his bottom lip. He opened his mouth and leaned in closer to kiss her. That is, until Lilly jammed a ball of paper down his throat.

Ah. I'm so disappointed in myself. I have no idea how long it's been. My writing skills are very rusty and I'm still out of ideas. Hopefully, your reviews of this story will inspire me to write again. Sorry for the long wait. As for 'The Last Time', the last chapter totally changed the way the story was supposed to be. So chances of me updating on that soon is slim. But hopefully, I'll get to it. Once again, sorry.
