I felt the walls around my heart start to crack. This guy was just too amazing! Yes he messed up, but he realized his mistake and was truly sorry for it. He put his dignity on the line not once but twice and would probably do it a third and fourth time as well just to win my heart.
I felt a pair of eyes staring intensely at me and I blinked away the tears on my lashes and looked up to see Deke across the hall with a worried yet hopeful expression on his face. The walls completely crumbled then and I felt the old me returning. Grabbing a pen I quickly checked the appropriate box, folded the post-it in half, shut my locker, and started towards him. All eyes were on me but I didn’t care, I had something very important to do.
Mistaking the determination on my face for anger Deke threw his hands up and said, “Kaylah please don’t be mad! I didn’t know what else to do to prove how sorry I was. I wasn’t trying to embarrass you I just wanted the whole school to know I was serious about this.”
I handed him the folded paper and said, “Open it Deke.”
“I’m not sure I should.” he said wearily.
“Just do it.” I said starting to get impatient.
He opened it up, scanned the words, then broke out into the most radiant smile I’ve ever seen, “Really?” he asked still a little insecure.
I returned his smile and nodded.
Obviously I checked Yes!
Faster than lightning I was pulled into his arms so tightly the breath was knocked out of me and all air supply was cut off immediately after that as Deke pressed his lips to mine with so much passion and love that it brought fresh tears to my eyes. He pulled back still holding my face and brushed the tears away, “You don’t know how happy you just made me!” he whispered.
“If I didn’t know before that kiss surely showed me!” I teased.
All around us there were murmurs of, “what did she say?” and “why are they kissing?” there were also a lot of “Awww’s” and “Get her, Deke”
We were oblivious to it all though, we were so rapped up in each other that no one else existed.
It felt so good, I felt like I was home and I had nothing but happiness and love ahead of me.
Of course all good moments must come to an end and this time in the form of my brother.
“Deke get your hands off my baby sister!” he shouted with a smile on his face as he approached us.
“No can do Kane, I’ve spent the most miserable week of my life without her, thinking I would never get a chance to hold her, so now that I have her I don’t plan on letting her go for a long time.” and before I could get my two cents in he continued saying the exact words that were about to leave my lips, “Besides, she’s only younger by a minute!”
Oh yes, I was sooo in love with this boy. I tip toed up to his lips giving him another toe curling kiss and once again losing myself in all that is Deke before my brother interrupted yet again.
“Fine, fine but none of that in front of me! It’s just gross, and don’t let me see you grab her ass or any other hidden body part or friend or no friend I might have to break your hands!” he playfully said though there was a hint of seriousness in his tone.
“Okay, it’s agreed,” Deke started allowing Kane to relax until he finished his sentence, “I’ll make sure you don’t see me doing it!” he finished with a laugh.
I guess he really did have a death sentence. We both noticed the murderous look on Kane’s face and realizing what was about to come Deke gave me a quick peck on the lips followed by a heart felt “I love you!” and darted off with Kane hot on his heels. I laughed so hard I almost pee’d.
I liked this feeling, it felt amazing. I guess there really were fairy tale endings or in our case beginnings. I couldn’t wait to see what else the future had in store for us! Whatever it was it was going to be exciting!
