Another Little Romance

“C’mon Georgie, wake up” yelled my math teacher, throwing his pencil at my face. I swear that was a form of bullying I was going to report. “Tell me what this means” I scowled at him.

I still couldn’t figure it out and what was happening. I looked around and everyone was staring right at me, except the boy in the corner. He was new last year and nobody talked to him. He never said a word and I still don’t know what was going on with him, but I was tempted to find out.

I started walking home when I felt eyes staring straight at me. I turned around and no one was there. I kept walking and all of a sudden a hand touched my shoulder. I jumped thinking it was my best friend Blyne, but it was the boy who sat in the corner, Harry.

“You, uh. . you dropped this” He told me as he handed me my math book.

“Uh, thanks” I managed to say under my hidden grin.

“It’s okay” His voice I had never heard before and all his words melted inside me.

I just grinned at him and went red in the face. I started to walk away as his hand brushed against mine. It was, like an electric shock.

I couldn’t have walked home any faster even if I tried. I sat at the table and opened my math book when a note slipped out. I opened it and read it.

Georgie, 

I have never talked to you until now. I wanted to tell you something important.

I like you.

It’s okay if you don’t.

Harry.

I couldn’t help go red. The think was, I liked him to, a lot. I wanted to tell him, but them the doorbell rang. I ran to the door to find him standing there in the rain.

“Hey” he said

“Hey, what are you doing here?” And once again, I could feel my face go red and I felt hot, even though it was freezing.

“I was wondering if you could help me”

“With what?”

“Our school work” 

“Yes, of course! Come in, you must be freezing”

He followed me into the dining room.

“Is anyone home with you?”

“No, their both out until next week. Do you want something to eat?”

“Sure”

So after an hour of work, I got suspicious.

“I guess you didn’t come just to get my help?”

“Uh. . well, I wanted to talk to you”

“Yes, thats okay, go ahead” And then all of a sudden it wasn’t me going red in the face.

“I know this is sudden, but, I really like you. I have liked you for a year and I wanted to know if you felt the same way”

“Yes, I want to know what this is leading to”

He grinned “I want to know if you’d go out with me?”

I couldn’t wipe the smile off my face.

“Yes, yes, yes!”

So we sat on the couch the whole night with our arms around each other. He played with my hair and I rubbed my feet against his and every now and then, he hummed me songs. I kept getting cold, so he pulled me closer and I eventually fell asleep.

I woke up shaking. I was in my bed and all the blankets were everywhere. I didn’t know where he was and I was worried. I was crying. I had a nightmare. So I wrapped a blanket around me and walked down stairs expecting never to see him again. I looked in the kitchen and there he was, sitting at the table, looking out the window. I snuck up behind him and wrapped my arms around him and caught him by surprise. 

“Sorry” I said sitting down on his keens and wrapping the blanket around him.

“For what? Sleeping?”

“Mmm”

“Are you hungry?”

“Not really”

He looked at me and smiled, then catching me off guard, he kissed me. Long and hard on the lips. I got a tingling sensation in my stomach. I didn’t want to stop, but I had to pick up the phone.

“Hello?”

“It hung up?”

“Yeah, that was weird”

So we snuggled up all week, watching movies and eating popcorn. Nothing went wrong until he left. He watched me sleep and do everything I could have ever imagined.
