New Girl

Chapter Thirty-Six

“Ben!” I called, running after him, my heels clicking on the pavement. “Ben, wait!”
I caught up to him and stopped in front of him.
“You know, I really thought you would’ve learned by now,” he said, angrily.
“Ben,” I whispered.
“You deserve so much better than him, and yet you keep going back.” His blue eyes looked outrageously sad.
“Ben,” I said, taking his face in between my hands.
“What?” He said, trying to turn away.
“I ended it – for good.”
He looked at me, surprised. “Really?”
“Yes,” I nodded. A huge grin spread across his face as he picked me up and spun me in a circle. I laughed.
“You’re crazy,” I whispered as he put me down.
“You have no idea,” he murmured, before he pressed his lips to mine, right there in the middle of the school parking lot.
After making sure that Brittney had a ride home, we left the dance. Neither of us wanted to go home and explain to our parents why we weren’t at the dance, so Ben drove us up to the mountains. He laid out a blanket on the top of a grassy hill and we laid down together, watching the stars.
“You know, this is the first time I’ve been in the mountains,” I told him.
“Really?” he said, surprised. I nodded. “Well, what do you think?” he asked.
“It’s gorgeous,” I told him.
“Like you,” he smiled. I giggled and cuddled up against him. We talked back and forth for awhile, and then we fell quiet, listening to the crickets and staring up at the sky.
“Ben, I can’t go to prom with you,” I said, suddenly.
“Why not?” he asked confused.
“Who’s going to help me pick out my dress?” I exclaimed. He laughed and rolled onto his side next to me.
“Brittney,” he said firmly and gave me a kiss

The End.
