Hello again, I'm in a writing mood, so I figured I might as well update.
Somehow, two weeks had passed since Band Day. I wasn't quite sure how they passed so quickly, but I had been dating Shane for two weeks. Maybe it was the fact that I was pretty happy, the fact that Katie had pretty much chewed me out, or maybe it was the fact that I still hadn't told my parents about Shane.
Shane was a complete sweetheart, although I thought it was because he was my first boyfriend. He was completely overjoyed just with being in the same room as me; you could just see it on his face. He cutely waited for me after most of my classes, and I pretty much got butterflies every time I saw him. Katie however, was NOT overjoyed with my presence, and I often saw her glaring at me from across the room. When I had said yes to Shane, we had become mortal enemies. There was no turning back- Katie and I would never speak again. It wasn't my fault though. After she found out I had said yes, I asked her whether she was okay with it, and she said she was totally over him. Apparently she's not though.
Maya, on the other hand, was completely thrilled. I think she has already been planning a wedding. She, as most of my friends had started describing me and Shane, said we were adorable together. Most of the Park Valley band students, however, were kind of shocked, never expecting Shane to be my first boyfriend. I hadn't cared though, I was happy and that was all that mattered.
As I was approaching the band room after school for a game, I noticed Shane standing outside, as usual. Today was a game, and the entire band was just staying after. I greeted him with the oh-so-common 'Hello'.
"Hey. Care to walk?" He gestured towards the direction I just came from, raising an eyebrow for added effect.
"Let me change first." I smiled, and he held the door open for me to the band room. I nodded a 'thanks' and disappeared into the girl's bathroom and emerged a few minutes later, in short shorts and a tee-shirt. I didn't have super-nice legs, but I definitely flaunted what I did have. You know what they say-Flaunt it if you got it! When I returned to Shane, he smiled, and laughed. "Nice ensemble."
"Thanks. Now, what shall we talk about?" I grinned and blushed as he grabbed my hand, leading the way. My friends were giving me a hard time, because we hadn't started holding hands until a few days ago. We didn't really care though, we were taking our time. We both thought alike; we didn't want this to be just a quick relationship type thing. Well, I didn't, and I figured he didn't either.
"How about plans for this weekend." He didn't say it as a question, but I still responded with a "Sure." He paused and thought for a moment. "How about a movie?" He grinned even bigger, if it was possible.
"I suppose I could clear my schedule for a movie… Who all's coming? And what should we see?" The latter two statements came out jammed together, I couldn't help it! Shane and I hadn't actually gotten a chance to hang out since Band Day, and I was eager to see him out of a school function.
"What if it was just, like, the two of us? Butifyoudon'twantittobe,thenwecaninvitewhoever!" Shane, bashfully lowered his head, then dared a glance at me from the corner of his eye. I think he about started to cry when I started giggling. After getting a horrified look from him, I stifled my laughter.
"Aw! I'd like it to be just the two of us! However, I still haven't told my parents, and I don't think they'd take a liking to me going to the movies with just one guy…" I stopped walking, and I turned to look at him. I could drown in his eyes, as cheesy as that sounds, it was true. I could have just stood there with him forever. I paused for a moment, then asked, "What?"
Shane just smiled. Before I knew it, his lips were pressed to mine. It wasn't anything more than a peck, but I was sure I was ten different shades of red, and I was smiling. After a few minutes of just standing there staring at each other, I found myself still grinning. I guess I was dazing off because I didn't hear whatever he had said. I asked what for the second time that afternoon. Shane got a look in his eyes that I didn't quite recognize, and shook his head. "Nothing. You're just completely, and totally adorable." He leaned in for a second kiss, and I greatly obliged.
"Get it girl!" I looked over at my two interrupters and gave a sheepish look. Of course, Brianna and Maya were standing there, the biggest grins I had ever seen plastered on their faces. "Brianna, I thought that PDA was allowed at school functions?" To say the least, I was mortified. I was a VERY modest person when it came to guys, and I didn't really want them teasing me about a little peck of a kiss, even if it gave me goose bumps. So what did I do? Absolutely nothing. Shane, however, wrapped his arms around me, and kissed me on the cheek. "Got a problem with it?"
"No, and neither do you apparently!" Maya exclaimed, then both her and Bri bursted into a fit of laughter. "We'll leave you two alone, but no procreating!" Oh, they were so dead. I made a move towards Maya, but Shane's wonderful arms held me in place. Curse him being taller, and much stronger than me. Bri and Maya left after another round of giggles, but Shane still held onto me-not that I minded. It was kind of chilly, and his arms were cozy and warm. Regardless, I shivered, though I tried my best to hide it.
"Cold, Ally?" He leaned down and whispered in my ear, which made me shiver again. I blushed, but released myself from his arms. I stood out in front of him, and grabbed his hands. As I started walking (backwards, I might add), I began talking. "What if we invited people, but sat away from them, or something? Then I wouldn't have to lie to my mom, and we could still hang out."
"I guess…" Shane pretended to look all dejected. I couldn't resist, and with all my courage, I planted a kiss on his lips. Three kisses in one day, I was getting lucky. I didn't even realize I had gone into my Ally-always-gets-her-way phase, but as soon as I kissed him, his fake disappointment disappeared. "We should get back to the band room, lest Maya and Bri make up some story about us 'procreating'."
"I concur." I laughed, and we headed back to the Park Valley band room.
When we arrived back, we could tell Maya and Bri had gone story crazy, just by the looks we received. Chris and Thomas were sitting by them, and laughing their heads off. I mean, I loved Bri and Maya to death but what they told these guys must have been bad.
"And there are the proud parents now!" When this reached my ears, I simply gawked. It wasn't Maya or Bri who had said it, it was Katie. .GEE. They did NOT tell her I was pregnant, there was no way!?(Because I sooo wasn't!) Shane and I cheerfully ignored Katie, and sat down beside Maya and Brianna. I gave them a questioning look, but they shook their heads, reading my mind. I turned and looked at Katie, who was pointing at us, and whispering to John, a tuba player. John didn't seem to believe her though, and I was oh-so-grateful that Katie had a known lying reputation.
"Do any of you guys want to go see a movie this weekend?" I asked, knowing everyone would agree. After everyone had answered with a 'Duh!', it was decided we would go see the newest scary movie, which had been suggested by none other than Maya.
During our break at the game, I broke away from Shane and snuck over to Maya, who greeted me cheerfully, before noticing my depressed disposition. "What's wrong, Ally?"
"I need to talk to you about something important…" I sighed, thinking of how I was going to word this conversation without completely embarrassing myself. She said something to Chris and Thomas, who she had been talking to, and tugged me behind the bleachers. "What's up chick?"
"I'm completely scared of kissing Shane beyond a peck! Which I know is stupid, but I just worry I'll be bad at it, or he'll laugh and go back with Katie." I seemed out of breath when I finished, and realized I had said it all in one breath of air.
I expected to Maya to laugh, as she usually did at my freak outs, but she looked at me sympathetically. "Awww! Poor Ally, scared of kissing her boyfriend! Come here!" I smacked her in a friendly way before accepting her hug. "Okay, first off, Shane likes you too much to leave you. Trust me, I can just tell from the way he looks at you. He likes you, a lot. You've got him hooked hard! Secondly, I doubt you'll be bad, and it's not like he's going to laugh! Something tells me that you're a good kisser-Don't ask. It's usually the innocent ones that are good in bed." She paused to laugh at my horrified expression. "Anyway, sorry. Everything will be okay. Don't worry about it. It will all work out like it should. And it just might happen at the movies if I have anything to do with it!"
"You wouldn't!" My horrified face turned even worse.
"Watch me." Maya grinned as she skipped off towards Shane.
I tried to make this chapter a little longer… I don't know if I actually did. Hope you guys enjoyed! Read and Review please! Depending on my mood the next few days, I might update again. I've already got part of the next chapter in my head so…
