I Know How I Feel
I was dumb I was wrong

"What?!" Lilly screamed, the whole school now turning to look at what was going on at her table. Four teenagers were at that table, three sitting and one standing. Oliver continued eating his lunch, while watching what was going. Miley had stopped eating, her mouth hanging open while Lilly looked confused.
"I asked if you wanted to go out with me." Jackson asked.
"Is… is this some kind of… of joke?" Lilly asked.
"No Lilly, I really like." Jackson said.
"Oh my gosh." She said and stood up. "I, uh, have to run!" Lilly ran out of that cafeteria, not wanting to look back because she knows she'll see a hurt look on Jackson's face. And the truth was, Lilly was hurt by what she'd done too.

Lilly stopped in front of the Stewart's house, her hand hovering just above the doorknob. Normally she would just throw open the door and be greeted by the whole Stewart family. That was this morning when that happened.
But this is now, at night. Say 7 o'clock and Miley wasn't at home, she was at a Hannah gig. Why didn't 'Lola' go? Because 'Lola' wasn't feeling too well. Which wasn't exactly a lie, Lola wasn't even a real person. Lilly felt fine, until now.
Don't back out now, you have to face him. Lilly let out a breath and grasped the doorknob. She closed her eyes and turned the knob and peeked inside. The lights were off except for the one in the kitchen. No one was there, he had to be upstairs.
Ok, you have two options. Turn around and wait for another opportunity or go upstairs and talk to him. Lilly walked in and closed the door softly. She looked around the room and slowly made her way towards the stairs. I feel like a burglar…
Lilly quietly made her way up the stairs and stopped in front of Jackson's door. She raised her hand to knock on his door, but stopped. Could she really do this? Could she finally admit her feelings for him?
Do it Truscott, stop being a wimp. She knocked on the door and waited, her heart racing. She waited a while, but no one came. She was about to knock again when the bathroom door next to his room opened. Lilly saw Jackson emerge, hair damp and only wearing a towel around him.
"Lilly!" He said, seeing her. She jumped back a bit, eyes wide. This is so not going according to plan. "What are you doing here?" He asked coldly.
That's understandably, after what happened. She thought. "I… I came to talk to you." Lilly said, looking away from Jackson. She couldn't even think properly with him standing there without his shirt on. She started to think that maybe he looked hotter then Jake if she ever managed to see him without his top on…
"Uh Lilly, could you stop staring at me?" Jackson asked. Lilly blushed and looked down at the ground and stepped away from the door so Jackson could get in. He left it open a bit so they could still talk while he got dressed.
"Jackson, I'm sorry about what happened today in the cafeteria, but that was a shock to me. I didn't think you felt… that way… about me." Lilly said.
"I get that, but shouting at me in front of the whole school and then running off? I don't get that." She heard Jackson ask.
"It was just a shock. I wasn't sure if I… if I…"
"Felt the same way?" Jackson asked, opening the door wider. Lilly nodded.
"Well, why are you here now? To tell me to just forget about what happened? I can't Lilly, that's how I feel." He said turning around and going in his room.
"No Jackson, I came to tell you that I… I know how I feel now. I feel the same way." Lilly said. Jackson stopped walking and turned to face her.
"You do?" He asked, starting to smile. Lilly entered his room and nodded.
"I didn't know it until everything that happened today at school. I'm really sorry about that Jackson." She said.
"Yeah, that's ok. So… do you want to go out with me, Friday night?" He asked.
"Yeah, that sounds good." She said. They stood looking at each other, not really knowing what to do. "I guess I should go."
"Yeah." Jackson said, following her out of his room and down the stairs. They stopped at the front door. "I'll pick you up at 7?"
"Yeah, sure. See you tomorrow." Lilly said and turned to leave, but Jackson stopped her, grinning.
"How about a good night kiss?" He asked. Lilly slowly smiled as their faces moved closer. Their lips touched and Lilly knew that she really did like Jackson as more then a friend. She knew how she felt about him now.
One day I was just so obsessed with this song, that I just had to use it! The first bit was something I added in after I finished writing this chapter because I knew it wouldn't make sense with what they were talking back, I should know because when I re-read it, I was like, "Huh?"
I need some ideas guys, I'm now resorting to watching sappy old romance movies for inspiration, and I HATE sappy old romance movies. So please don't make me do that. Instead I'm thinking up weird ways for them to kiss, which is actually kinda fun. Plus, any song suggestions? Some songs I'm already using are, Clumsy, I'd Lie, Here (In Your Arms) and I'm pretty sure there is a song I'm leaving out... I'll check later. All you need to do is review and give me a song title, any song title. Look around your room at your CDs lying around and pick a random song. That's all I ask. Or a suggestion for a kiss. Ok, till next time guys!
