He
ran after me and caught me halfway up the stairs on the second
story.
"It's rude to leave your company, it shows bad
manners."
"Baylie, she's just a friend believe me. Nothing
more."
"Why would I care anyways, that doesn't affect of bother
me in any way shape of form."
"Baylie I saw the look on your face, believe me you
care."
"I don't know what you saw, but it definitley wasn't
that, i hate to dissapoint you."
"If you wanna be like that, be like that, but just know
i'm not giving up, i like you, & that's not
changing."
"You mean it's not changing until barbie down there asks
you out on another date, do you tell all the girls
that or just the ones that are hard to get?"
"Baylie, I don't tell any girls that, you can ask anyone
from our school, anyone in our town, i don't date a lot of
girls
my last girlfriend was 4 months ago, and i haven't thought of
any other girls until i met you, and believe me, i've had
offers, but none that i wanted to accept, but i like you, & i
don't get why that's so hard for you to
believe."
"Because, Big-shot california guys like you, don't like
small-town country girls like me, theres nothing special about
me, i'm definitley not pretty like miss, katie down there,
i'm not that fun to be around, & i'm not very
interesting, so you tell me why it would be hard for me to
believe that you, mr. popularity would like me."
"You wanna know why i like you Baylie, here's why I like
you Baylie, Your beautiful, no matter what you say, there is no
other girl that could compare to you in my eyes, and your
stubborn, hard-headed, and very oppinionated, you keep everyone
at a distance because you're scared to get to close, to
attached, you push everyone who cares about you away, so you can
stay in your safe little bubble. Your not afraid to fight for
what you believe in, you care about people, and i mean genuinally
care about people, your honest and trustworthy, and that is why i
like you Baylie.
"If that's what you wanna think, you keep thinking that,
but we both know thats not true."
"Baylie, it's true, why would i waste my
breath telling you all this if it wasn't."
"I don't know."
"okay then so just believe me."
"okayyy,whateverr."
"since i helped you, do you trust me?"
"somewhat."
"Then come with me, i wanna show you something."
"well let me go change first i look a mess i have
sweats on, my hair up, no make-up."
"You look amazing to me"
"haha yeah suree, that's a bunch of bull."
"nahh, it really isn't but believe me, where were going,
no one will care what you look like."
"Okay if you say so"
We snuck out the back-door so Katie wouldn't have to tag
along.
we got in his car me in the passenger seat and him in the
driver's seat. i had my hand on the middle compartment, and
he put his on mine, and i didn't pull away, i think that
suprised him.
He just smiled. He let me pick the song, because he had his ipod
hooked up.
I chose Dark Blue, by Jack Mannequin.
"I love this song, it isn't like all that other stuff i
have on my ipod, this song actually has meaning."
"Wow, & I thought you were just a pretty boy" I
said.
"That should teach you not to judge people off of first
appearances."
I thought about pulling my hand away & he seemed to sense
this, so he actually held my hand with no intentions of letting
go, this made me smile. Maybe he wasn't so horrible after
all.
then his phone buzzed, i looked at it, it was from katie. of
freaking course.
i opened the text and it said, "What makes her so special?
I've known you for four years and you've known her for 2
days and you still pick her over me."
I was speechless, i didn't know what to say, he picked me
over barbie look-a-like Katie?
Why would he do that. He sensed something happened so he
looked at the text & started smiling.
Does that convince you enough? Does that finally prove to you
that i'm serious when i say i like you it's not a joke
i'm as serious as can be. i like you Baylie Johnson, so
please just let me, let me in, let me like you, let me talk to
you, let me find things out about you, let me know you.
I didn't notice right away but a few silent tears escaped
from my eyes, not from sadness, but from happiness, i
couldn't believe something like this was happening to me,
i'm Baylie Lynn Johnson, the girl that has the worst luck,
and something good is finally happened to me.
"Don't cry, I hate it when you cry it hurts me to see
you cry." he said as he wiped away a tear on my cheek with
his thumb. A few seconds later we arrived to wear we were going.
He parked the car in the woods and we got out. He held my hand
and we started walking up this hill/mountain thing once we got to
the top we sat on this rock, and from the rock, you could see the
most amazing view of the ocean.
"i'm sorry i was so horrible to you when i met you, i
guess i just didn't understand how nice you were. Now I feel
absolutley horrible now." He was still holding my hand.
"don't apoligize, & don't feel bad, it's
okay."
He smiled and kissed me on the cheek.
This
is the moment i would remember FOREVER.
