Chapter 4

I woke up the next morning to the birds chirping and the sun shining through the curtains, making me squint. Glancing at the clock on the bedside table, I sighed, ugh it's 8 in the morning, what teenager wakes up at this time? Well apparantly I do now.
Sleepily, I tried to get off the bed, thats now given me back ache, but as soon as I tried to get up I flopped back down. That was when I realised my hand was trapped under Toby's arm. Somehow during the night I'd decided to move closer to Toby and wrapped my arms around him, maybe a little bit to close for comfort.
Carefully, I lifted his arm and freed my hand, trying not to wake him up. I looked at him. He looked so peaceful, like nothing was bothering him, where as in reality he was going through a rough patch, where nearly everybody in the town hates him and he has a sister who we all think is hidding things, and knows everything, even though she's blind. Which to me is slightly freaky.

After retriving my hand from under Toby's arm, I slowly and gently got off the bed. My plan was to get dressed and leave pretty early, so that I could get home and confront my parents, so I get it over and done with. I don't know what type of punishment i'll get this time.
I got dressed in the things that I wore yesterday because I didn't bring anything with me. I tried to get dressed before Toby woke up, but that idea failed. I was just about to put my trousers on when he decided to wake up. Unfortunatley I was only in my bra and knickers, which made me slightly embarassed.
"Ugh morning, what time is it?" He sleeply asked me, still facing the other wall.
"Oh only about 8 I decided to get up early."
"Why-" Suddenly he stopped talking. And that was when I decided to turn around and fully embarass myself. He was facing me a look of shock on his face, it was obviously to much for him first thing in a morning.
"I was just getting dressed." I told him sheepishly. The shocked look had dissapeared off his face and now a smile was appearing.
"I don't mind, I like the view from over here." I blushed a bright shade of red. He never used to have an effect on me like that, I would always make flirty coments back just as a joke. Now it's replaces with butterflies in my tummy, like I had last night.
"Oh ha ha, your halarious, I'm going into the bathroom."
"Ohhhh that's not fair, I was enjoying that." He sounded like a five year old who had just been sent to bed early. I just laughed and walked into the bathroom, to finish getting changed.
I got changed in a record time and then went back to Toby. I dedided to keep his t-shirt. I need something to comfort me when I'm worrying about something or my parents are arguing with me. The t-shirt smell of him, so all I have to think about is hugging him and it should stop me panicking.

I went back to Toby in the other room, and saw that he was now dressed aswell in the same clothes he wore yesterday.
"Hey, I think I better go now, I know it's early, but I want to get the argument with mu parents over and done with so I can go and hang out with Emily, Aria and Hanna." He just nodded in agreement.
"I'll walk you home."
"Arh you don't have to do, I think I'm capable of walking home," but obviously Toby being Toby he didn't listen to word I just said. He can be more stuborn than me sometimes.

It was a pretty nice day outside, the sun was shining on me making me feel hot and there was a slight breeze which intsantly cooled me down again.

We turned to face each other, "If it gets to uncomfortable at home, I can stay here another night." He gave me a concerened look, one that I don't get that often.
" I might actually take you up on that." I told him with a smile on my face. Who knows how things will go at home.
"I'm sorry that last night was a wash, it's just that things got pretty tense at home."
"It wasn't a total wash out, it was actually pretty fun kicking your ass at scrabble." He has a smug look on his face. An expression I have been seeing alot lately.

At that moment I could tell Toby was doing something. He suddenly went silent, and I could tell he was waiting to do something.
I was confused until he started to lean in , moving ever closer to me. Oh No! Oh No! What is he doing? I can't kiss him.
But something inside of me was telling me to go for it but my brain was saying no.
He was moving closer and closer, and soon enough our foreheads were touching.

After a few seconds I decided to go with the feeling, and before I knew it our lips had met.
Our lips moved in sync as we made out for what felt like an eternity. Feelings like electric shocks shot through my whole body. It suprised me, I'd never felt that with a guy before. Not that i've been with alot of guys before, because I haven't.
We pulled apart after a while and placed our foreheads together, trying to catch out breathes.
"I was not expecting that," I told him in barely a whisper.
"Me neither." He slowly said, his face softening.
Unfortunately, this moment had to end and before I knew it he stepped away and was about to walk inside, when I remembered what he sais a few minutes ago-
"Hey it was not a complete ass kicking by the way." I told him matter of factly.
Turning around he laughed, "Bye spencer." And wandered back inside.

I just stood there, totally in shock. What on earth just happened?
