Ranting
I
won't try to philosophize
I'll just take a deep breath then I'll
look in your eyes
This is how I feel
And it's so surreal-
Hero-Heroine, Boys Like Girls
Jackson stood behind Rico's, fidgeting with the cloth he used to clean the counter top with. He was nervous; he was about to do something he thought he'd never have the guts to do. Actually, he never thought he'd actually go through with this.
See, the thing is, Jackson has a crush on Lilly Truscott, his younger sister's best friend. What's wrong with that? Well, he thought that was all it would be, just a crush, but it isn't. It's slowly become something more and Jackson got the crazy idea in his head to actually tell Lilly how he really felt about her.
"Hey Jackson. Hello, Earth to my crazy brother." Miley said, snapping her fingers in front of his face. Jackson blinked and looked at her, noticing that Lilly stood next to her. "Oh good, you're back."
"What do you want Miles?" Jackson asked, trying not to look at Lilly. But he did and she smiled at him. Jackson felt his heart skip a beat and looked away again.
"Can I just have two bottles of water?" Miley asked.
"Coming right up." Jackson said. He got the bottles of waters out and placed them on the counter. Miley paid and took her bottle and walked to the table. Jackson then looked at Lilly who was still standing there.
"Is something wrong Jackson?" She asked.
"No, I'm totally fine. Nothing wrong with me, I'm totally fine. Fine, fine, fine." Jackson started to ramble.
Lilly laughed and shook her head. "It's fine Jackson, I do that sometimes too. I'll see you later." She gave him another big smile and turned around and joined Miley at the table.
Jackson watched the two of them, well, mostly Lilly. There weren't that many people on the beach, so it wasn't like he had nothing else to do. The girls were talking about something, laughing at things and looking at him. Well, Lilly did and Jackson would always look away quickly.
After about half an hour, the two girls got off their seats and walked past the counter, but Lilly stopped in front of him.
"You want to tell me what is on your mind now?" Lilly asked. Jackson half smiled, but shook his head. "Alright, your loss."
"Ok Lilly, wait." Jackson said, moving around the counter so he was standing in front of her now. "I'll tell you."
"Oh goody." Lilly said, her eyes shinning with anticipation. She was reminding Jackson of a little kid and he smiled at that.
"Ok, this is going to be a little bit hard for me to say, because I never thought it would come down to this, telling someone this. It's been a secret till now and everything." Jackson started off on his rant, but Lilly shook her head and he stopped. "Sorry, can't help it."
"It's alright, I'll help you. Jackson, just look into my eyes and tell me what it is." Lilly said, putting a hand under Jackson's chin and lifting his head, which was turned down to the ground, so he could look her in the eyes. "Now tell me what is on your mind."
This is it. Jackson thought. He took a deep breath. "Lilly, I like you. A lot. As in, more then just being friends, I want us to be more then friends. Well, that's how I feel, I don't know how you feel because…" Even looking Lilly in the eye and telling her how he felt, he went on a rant. Lilly giggled and he stopped.
"Thank you for telling me that." She said and grinned.
"But, do you feel the same way? Because if you don't, it's fine and we can-" Jackson started to speak, but Lilly rolled her eyes and leaned in and kissed him. Jackson stopped talking and kissed her back, putting his arms around her waist and pulling her closer to him.
"Hey Lilly, you…" Miley trailed off as she saw her brother and her best friend busy kissing on the empty beach. "Ok, I'll leave you two alone."
Miley turned around and walked off, but she stopped and looked back at them. She smiled and shook her head and continued walking.
Hope that keeps you guys happy for awhile. No sneak peek this time, again. Anyways, it would be a great Christmas present for y'all if when I get back, I see I got 9 reviews, making it 100 reviews in total! That has been my aim since I started writing here on to get 100 reviews before the end of the year. Thanks guys! You'll hear from me again on the 28th!
