"Well that was awkward." Said Jude sitting down on the bench.
"We're not done Mister.
What was Bethany talking about?" asked Lydia.
For some reason,she had a good feeling about this.
"I could ask you the same question,what was Damien talking about?" asked Jude leaning back on his hands.
He was smirking and quirking his left eyebrow.
''Dammit!He looked so sexy like that.
Why do I always have to be so smart for myself?" Lydia thought to herself.
"Okay!I'll tell you.
Buy don't laugh okay?When you said that you wanted to go to homecoming with some hot cheerleader,it got me pissed.I don't know why…"
"Well,obviously you had the hots for me." Interrupted Jude before stopping abruptly by the death glare Lydia gave him.
"Okay so I met Damien and one thing led to another.
And when he kissed me at that party,I said I couldn't do that and walked away only to find you kissing that barn slut!
So I took my revenge.
There!
I said it!Happy now?!" said Lydia and looked at him only to find him laughing his ass off.
"Barn slut?Really Lydia?So,you do have the hots for me." Said Jude wriggling his eyebrows again.
"Okay!That's it!I'm never talking to you." Said Lydia as she got up and started stomping away.
"I'm dead for sure today" Jude thought to himself before calling out her name and jogging to catch up to her.
"WHAT?!" asked Lydia,tears in her eyes.
"Hey!Hey!Hey!I'm sorry Lyd,I didn't mean to tease you like you that.
You wanna hear the truth?I only kissed Bethany to make you jealous.
I saw you kissing Damien on the porch that night and didn't know what happened to me so I kissed Bethany
and as you might say,one thing led to another."
"So you aren't into that las?" asked Lydia looking up at him with puppy dog eyes.
God her eyes were so beautiful.
"No." He said in a deep voice,his blue eyes piercing her brown.
"The truth is,
I love you Lydia Scott.
I always have.
When we shared our first kiss in kinder garden,
when you broke Jamie's favourite baseball bat,
when you flunked in calculus and cried,
when you fell on the beach and had sand all over you,
I loved you then, I still love you and I will love you forever.
I love your brown eyes, your dorky nose, I love everything about you.
I always have.
And I couldn't stand seeing someone else with you."
All this while Lydia looked at Jude in awe,was this real?Did he really love her?
She wiped away a tear,smiled and smashed her lips on his,jumping,and hugging him tightly.
"I love you too Jude Baker." She said after breaking apart and started laughing.
"Why are you laughing?" asked Jude.
"Well,let's just say I knew how to get that out of you.
Hence,
the tears." She said smirking before running off.
"Oh you suck!" said Jude as he ran after her and caught her by his arms.
He twirled her up and planted a kiss on her lips.
"YOU'RE MINE Lydia Bob Scott.
And no one can change that." He said as she smiled and wrapped her arms around his neck as they deepened their kiss.
