Heyy…. This story has been soooo fun to write but sadly it has to come to a close…..
THIS IS THE FREAKIN LAST CHAPTER
We sat in silence until the bus came to a stop. I was lumping inside. He knew it was me. Why the heck did I disguise myself? Waste of time? Maybe….
Chella stood up her curls bouncing all over.
"Its time to leave the bus! Whooo hoo. Watch your step it's a little tricky getting down." She said and sat down.
"You know I think Ginger's have their own religion." Travis whispered in my ear.
"Stereo-typical much?" I said laughing. Travis just smiled. Don't pull a move buddy….
Me and Travis headed for the woods.
"Alone at last." He said as we walked deeper into the woods. (where we were supposed to be picking up litter) I pulled off my wig and through my sweatshirt to the ground letting my black hair flow to my shoulders.
"You're pretty." Travis told me.
"I was expecting something like that." I said smiling. This was all too awkward! Was I finally admitting to Travis about everything?
"I'm sorry for all the pranks I ever pulled on you-" I cut him off, "Don't be sorry, I would've never fell in love with you." I said. Instantly after I said it I flushed. I was being an immature idiot for admitting my love. No one could deny that.
"Do you love me? I mean do you really? What's with the sudden change in you Katie? I mean even though all those years I told you 'One day you'll fall in love with me Gardner! Don't doubt my hotness.' Or something like that, I actually doubted you coming around." He said. Whoa Travis was going deep and I didn't know how to feel about it.
"Ummm." I paused. Travis looked at me anxiously. I took a deep breath. "Yes I love you. Yes I really love you. And there has been no sudden change I've always loved you. You were right and I'm just a really good actress." I said it all in one breath.
Travis smiled the goofiest grin ever. His curly hair sticking up and his pointed nose and ears, his arched eyebrows God I loved everything about him!
"I love you too Katie." He said. This was it big time. Would he kiss me? Ok truth is I didn't want him to kiss me… I'm a baby when it comes to love. I mean who knows where his lips have been! It's Travis freakin Stoll we're talking about here!
Looks like Travis wasn't in the mood for lip locking. (secretly thrilled) Travis had something else on his mind.
"Do you know where we are?" I asked shocked breaking the love chain.
Travis turned around. "No. Wanna have a little fun." He said winking.
"Perve!" I said punching his arm. "No seriously Stoll where are we?"
"Beats me. I've never been to these woods before; I'm just a kid in a detention center after all."
"You're really proud of that aren't you?" I said. He smiled, 'Oh yeah."
We walked. To be honest neither of us cared where we were, we just wanted to get away from Chella and Ms. Trout.
Travis stranded off topic, "Do you think Ms. Trout is married?"
I laughed and leaned against a mossy, green tree, "Who would marry that witch?"
"Ha I don't know. Would you marry Ms. Trout for a million dollars and then adopt 24 starving babies from Africa? Did I mention you have to never divorce and live in a 3 room apartment?" Travis asked with a straight face. How he did that I'll never know.
"Travis! That's racist and rude! And I'm not a lesbian I like you!" I said.
"I love how you take everything way too seriously." He sighed.
"I love how you don't." ugh… another one of those perfect cheesy kiss scenes. I needed to act mysterious or charm him in some way. I needed to be… sexy. Wait erase that last sentence from you memory! Katie Gardener being sexy? It's too much!
We somehow wondered onto a golf course.
"Want to play golf?" I said sarcastically picking up a golf ball. Don't laugh at me but I'm actually quite good at golf.
"Golf is for old men in sweater vests and polos." Offensive but true… I now wouldn't dare tell him golf and tennis were my favorite sports.
"Oh my God!" I screamed. Rottweiler. Running. At. Us. Scary. Teeth. That. Look. Like, they. Could. Kill. Us. In. one. Bite.
Travis and I made a mad dash.
"It's still coming!" I scream looking over my shoulder. We have officially held hands! *SIGH*
"To the pond!" Travis yelled. He's cute when he yells…. *DOUBLE SIGH*
We are laughing the entire way. On the dock the Rottweiler sniffs Travis's pants.
"The corn muffin." Travis says grimly and jumps into the water. Since we are holding hands I naturally fall in too.
"Travis!" I half laugh half scream! He is doing the same. We are then splashing eachother having the time of our lives oblivious to the dog owner panting and out of breath on the dock.
"Sorry bout' that kids." The lady says. "My dog Bessie, she has an obsession with corn muffins. Either of you got one on ya'?" She asks.
I bust out laughing pointing to him. My clothes are soaking wet. Yes Travis can probably see through my shirt. (Picked the wrong day to wear white) but did I care? No! We were laughing!
The lady saw that we needed to be alone.
"If I say yes to being your girlfriend will we get into messes like this all the time?" I ask smirking.
"Oh yeah." He said.
I couldn't have been happier when Travis did what I was scared of all day. Travis Stoll kissed me. Then and there. While swimming in a pond. (in a golfcourse) people were staring saying we were the cutest couple. Some guy was video taping saying that this was going on youtube. We didn't care. Ok we were making out now! It was thrilling, incredible and amazing all at once.
"I can't believe I'm kissing a stalker!" I say proudly.
"I'm not a stalker. I'm your personal stalker Travis Stoll."
I kissed him once again an felt as though my brain would explode!
Its over! That wuzzzz super fun!
