Things start and things end, just like everyday. I'm sick of that feeling in the pit of my stomach. It makes me want to puke when I'm around him. I just turned around and tried to walk away. John put his arm around my shoulder.
I giggled hesitantly and kept on walking.
"Ah, fuck. I've got a slight boner." He said.
My face turned red and I looked away from him. My stomach turned in a bad way.
"Jess!" Jeff yelled.
I looked ahead to see Jeff running towards me. His face glowing.
"Come on!" He said then jerked me away from John.
I didn't think twice about following him.
Sometimes you scrape and sink so low, I'm shocked at what you're capable of.
He pulled me into the locker room and pressed me against the door, his body against mine.
"What?" I asked, cocking my head to the side.
He smiled, "I love you."
My face turned red.
He ran his hands up my arms.
"Is that flame there?" He asked, never breaking his gaze from my eyes.
I smiled, "Where?"
"You know what I mean…"
I nodded, "Yeah, why?"
"I…uh…well…" He stumbled over his words.
"What?"
"I want to marry you…"
"Why would you want to marry me?" I asked.
He laughed, "I love you!"
"What do you love about me?"
He smiled and backed away from me. I sat down on the floor, he sat on a bench in front of me.
"I hate the way you call me no matter where I'm at to yell at me for not spending time with you. I love how you want to wake up with me beside you. I hate the way you mumble when you first wake up. But I love how you'll do anything to make me smile."
I laid my head on his leg, he tangled his fingers in my hair.
"I'll marry you." I said sheepishly.
His face lit up and he tackled me onto the floor.
"I promise, I won't let you down." He said, then kissed me.
