this ones really long, but i think its my favorite so far:)
“You ready kid?” Heather said. We were back in my room, 12:45pm. I was getting more and more nervous.
“Yeah, I guess.” I mumbled. I had a bad feeling, but a good one all the same.
“Got your phone?”
“Yeah.”
“Good, call me if there's any problems. I mean it. I'll be there in a heartbeat.”
“Okay, I guess I'll leave now. It takes a couple minutes to get there.”
“Okay, kid. Have fun.”
“I'll try.”
I walked to the park, with nervous butterflies growing in my stomach. I saw Gary leaning on a tree, hands behind his back. He looked like he was thinking really hard about something. I walked up quietly and mumbled “Hey.”
“Hey,” He said, snapped from his thought. There was a long silence. Then he began to talk softly. “We need to talk.” He must have seen the look on may face, because he said “Oh, no, it's not a bad thing, really, it's not, if that's what you thought, it's not bad, I should've told you.” I breathed out a sigh of relief. It was all I could do.
“Well, then what is it?” I said softly.
“Well, um...” I could see he was nervous. “Well, okay, I'm just gonna say this. I've been thinking about this for two whole days, ever since we went to the movie together. Callie, you're beautiful. The most beautiful girl in the whole world. You're funny, smart, cool, and amazing. You're the best girl any guy could want. I'm so lucky to have you, and can't stand the days when I don't see you. I never wanna loose you, I don't know what I would do. Callie, I love you. More than anything in the world. And I hope you know I mean it, with all my heart. I love you. And this is all I've thought about the past two days.” Then, he pulled me close, and kissed me. I could feel the warmth of his body, the softness of his lips. It was the most perfect kiss you could ever imagine. The butterflies were fluttering like there was no tomorrow.
“Gary,” I said, with tears in my eyes, “I love you too. More than anything. You're amazing...” That was all I could say. I was crying just because I was so happy. I stood on my tip toes, and kissed him lightly. He hugged me close, tightly, but perfect.
“Oh,” he said smiling. “There's more.”
“What more could there be?” I asked.
He led me out where there were no people, and I saw he set up a picnic blanket with sandwiches, drinks, snacks, and two candles. He sat me down on one side and he went and returned with a small box. He sat down the other side and handed me the box. I saw he had another one too. “This ones for now,” he said, then gave me the second box. “And this ones for later.”
“What's this for? I didn't get you anything...” I said.
“For you. Go ahead, open it.” He said, smiling. I did.
“Oh my God, it's beautiful. You didn't have to get this... You're amazing.”
“Here, let me help.” He came up behind me and put it around my neck. “Perfect.” He kissed me lightly on my neck. “Make sure you don't open that one til you get home.” It was a long narrow box, I wondered what was inside.
“I won't. I promise. You're the best, you really are... You did all this just for me?”
“Yes, of course. You mean the world to me, I would do anything for you. C'mon, lets eat.” So we did, it was the best meal I've ever had. We talked and laughed, and talked some more. It was getting late, so he lit the candles.
“How did you know I like french vanilla?” It was my favorite scent, and those were the candles.
“I listen when we text,” he said, laughing. “I remember you told me about it once. I've been dreaming about kissing you ever since I asked you out. You know, it's almost a year since then.”
“Gary, I couldn't of even dreamed about anything coming close to this. You're the only thing I think about, in a good way of course. You're my life, I love you.”
“I love you, Callie.” He cleared off the blanket and we laid down under the stars. I was resting my head on his chest, listening to his breathing. He tilted my head up and kissed me lightly.
I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. “Sorry,” I mumbled as I fished it out of my pocket. It was heather, asking where I was. I checked the time, 9:43. “I'm sorry,” I said to him, “I have to go... My curfews at ten, if I miss it my dad will kill me. I really wish I didn't have too, I'm sorry.”
“It's okay, Callie, I'll see you, okay? I'll text you tomorrow.” He said smiling. As I started to leave, he said “Callie?” I turned back around and he came up to me, held me close and said, “I love you.”
“I love you,” I said, and he kissed me goodnight.
