Chapter 4_ Instant Messaging

      This morning I took a long, hot shower. Then, put on axe, a powerful body spray with an aroma that is supposed to "attract women." Kevin said I put too much on. Oh well, I got my books and headed for class.

     As I was typing what I was supposed to, I got an Instant Message from Stacy:

 

Stacyyoxo: you smell nice.

JakeRake xD: oh, thanks. I bet you smell good too.

Stacyyoxo: haha, you're funny. Hey, want to catch up with me and get some pizza?

JakeRake xD: definately. everything's on me.

Stacyyoxo: awh, you're so sweet and adorable. I feel like we've know each other forever! :-)

JakeRake xD: Lol, yes, I know right? Well anyways, can I ask you something

Stacyyoxo: sure, shoot.

JakeRake xD: well, I think I'm starting to like you...

Stacyyoxo is typing...

     I waited anxiously for her reply but then our teacher told us to shut off our computers and head off to lunch. I wanted to know what she was thinking at this moment. I sprinted my way to the pizzeria and she was sitting there. I walked in nervously.

     She came up to me and hugged me. I wrapped my arms around her waist and sighed. We stood there for atleast 5 minutes. I didn't want to let go. Suddenly, she unfolded her arms and got on her tippy-toes, then whispered in my ear:

"I like you too, Jake."

     And when she said that, I was calm on the outside. On the inside, I felt like the happiest person in the entire world. We got our pizza and learned about each other a little more. 

     That afternoon, we hung around campus and talked basically. We held hands and stuff. I was hesitating to kiss her. I bought her and myself an ice cream cone and we sat on the bench. She laid her head on my chest and I stroked her hair with my fingers.

     After a long day, I walked her to her door. We hugged and I didn't want to leave her. I said my last goodbyes and as I left she was hesitant to open her door. I sighed, turned around, and walked to her. I turned her body around and surprised her with a gentle kiss when suddenly, I burped... Most embarrasing moment ever.

     She didn't make fun of me. She laughed. I laughed. We were on the floor laughing histerically. When it was over, I gave her a quick kiss and said goodnight. I approached the elevator.

"I love you!" she yelled as I walked to the elevator

     As the doors closed, I yelled, "Love you too!" leaned against the railing, and smiled.
