AN- It's so nice to be back and updating for you guys! I'm really glad to see more activity in this community now that winter has come around again.:) I definitely feel like that is a big reason why.

We've broken 50 reviews and I can't begin to thank you all enough! I will not be replying to every review which was my standard previously. I just need you all to know that they are appreciated and that if you really want to talk to me you can PM me or inbox me on tumblr. I am nayeli13 there as well.:)
This one is an AU that I think is pretty cute. I hope you all enjoy it!
I present Chapter 25 (oh my gosh 25….) of First Kiss…
Circle
I'm running late for History because my gym class ran over schedule last period. I run through the hallway and people give me odd looks as I pass them. When I reach my class room I step in with just a few moments to spare.
"You barely made it Mr. Cloud. I suggest you make better time management skills," my english teacher Mr. Smith scolds.
I simply nod, not in the mood to explain to my already cranky teacher. I walk to my desk and set my book and folders down before I notice a folded note already setting on my desk.
There are no indications that the note is for me, but it sits on my desk and no one else has paid it any mind so I unfold it as class begins.
Will,
We've been dancing around each other for over a year now and I really like you. This might be childish, but I have a simple question.
Do you like me?
Circle yes or no.
-Kayla
I blink several times and reread the note. I can barely comprehend the words on the paper.
Kayla and I have been dancing around each other. That's true. I've hesitated to ask her out too many times to count now.
I don't have to think twice before I circle the option on the left and fold the note back up and put it in the pocket of my folder.
I try to tune into the lecture. Really I do, but the note in my folder keeps drawing my attention back and a smile forms on my face as it finally sinks in.
Kayla likes me.
I never thought that we would ever come together this way. It's so juvenile. She asked me in a note. We're seniors in high school and it's kind of silly, but I have to admit that it's oddly charming. Kayla and I have never been conventional. We didn't come together in a normal way as friends and I think it's only fitting that we don't come together conventionally as a couple.
I'm fidgety all class period and I relocate the note from my English folder to my back pocket. I walk past Kayla's locker on the way to my next period and debate about slipping the note into her locker. I stand awkwardly in the corridor for a few moments before I walk away in fear of being caught.
I'll give it to her another way.
I turn the corner and enter my English class. I focus on the class period and when it slows down at the end I let my mind wander. Kayla has this class next period and it's her last class of the day so I can leave the note for her and drop by after… I ponder the thought. It would be reminiscent of how she left the note for me and that's fair.
The bell rings and I am forced to decide. I stand briskly and leave the room without a second thought.
At practice after school I'm pretending like nothing happened and I never allow Kayla to get me alone. After I make some slight changes to the note I sneak it into one of her textbooks for her to inevitably find sometime tomorrow or even tonight. It'll be better if she finds it when I'm not around because that's how I received her note. My nerves are on fire and I'm impatiently waiting for tomorrow to come.
I'm setting at lunch waiting for the group to catch up and I hear a tray hit the table next to me. I look up to see Kayla smile at me as she sits down. I turn my attention back to my food when I hear the sound of unfolding paper and she slides the note over to me.
I can see her original writing and my messy, but bold circles around the yes, but under in my handwriting it reads.
Kayla,
I can't believe you actually asked me that. I thought that I was being obvious. Now I have a question for you.
Will you be my girlfriend?
Circle yes or no.
-Will
She had clearly bolded the yes in my note before circling it. It takes me a few moments to realize that I'm grinning stupidly at this note while she's picking at her plate. After that realization it takes me about half a second to act. I turn to her and pull her in for a kiss. It's only momentary, but it feels incredible and I can't wait for more to come.
Her soft smile and my easy grin after are the best part. This girl makes me feel comfortable and safe and I don't know what I'd do without her.
AN- Not quite sure how I feel about this one. I like the concept, but I feel that my execution isn't right. Sorry to leave y'all hanging for months again. I just have a busy life.
I just keep telling myself that at least there's no real plot and that I'm not leaving you with any cliffhangers.
Also I didn't edit this because I'm lazy and I wanted to post. SO there.
