Have you ever had a dream where flying? Suddenly you become weightless and just like that, you're off the ground and nothing can touch you? And you get that crazy feeling in your stomach, like it's spinning around in there? I think that just happened to me, only it wasn't a dream.
After breaking away from my friend, I looked at her and saw her reddened face. She looked as if she was about to cry, and at that point, I forgot about the kiss and thought about what was said before it.
"Parker...did you really mean what you said just now?" I asked her. Once again, she avoided eye contact with me.
"Yes," she mumbled under her breath.
"You can look at me, you know? You can still talk to me."
"I can?" She asked, finally holding her head up and looking at me.
"Yes. I'm you're friend." She smiled at me as she stopped some tears from falling on her shirt. "How long have you felt this way about me?"
"Remember when Audrey and her posse were making fun of that girl sitting at the computer?"
"Yeah, but what did that have to do with anything? You hardly knew me then," I said.
"But remember how you didn't make fun of her, and how you called off the friendship after that?"
"Yeah."
"Well, that's what attracted me to you...and the fact that you're hot beyond belief. When I saw you stand up and say something, it showed me that you were a kindhearted person. I love that about you. You're not mad at me?"
"No way. I'm a bit surprised, but mad? No," I assured her. There was a bit of an awkward silence where we just stared at each other for a moment. "So...where do we go from here?"
"I know this might be pushing it, but that Spongebob movie opens tonight. How about we forget about "The Butterfly Effect" and go see that...on a date, I mean."
I knew that this was all happening a little fast, but what could be the harm in it? Parker was nice and fun to be around. It would just be like hanging out with her on any other night. It would be fun.
"Cool Beans," I stole her catchphrase before kissing her again and wrapping my arms around her. For once, I actually believed that everything was going to be ok.
A/N: I know this was short. I promise the next chapter will be longer. It's just that I have other stories to write too. I'm thinking of picking just two stories out of everything and sticking to only them until I finish.
