My Cowboy

Chapter 7- Tell me about yourself

"I can stay..." he started. "If you want, that is."

What? I haven't even known this kid for 24 hours and he's offering to stay the night with me?

I'm not sure what's going on in my mind. Part of me wants to say yes because he's been so sweet so far. The other part of me wants to kick his ass out, because this is NOT the kind of person I am.

If I was still living with aunt jane... a boy wouldn't even know my name let alone be holding my hair while I'm vomiting or sitting in my bed offering to stay the night. Hell, I'm surprised my puke hasn't scared him away by now.

"Uhh.. I mean, I guess. Until I fall asleep." I smiled up at him.

"Sure, whatever you're comfortable with." he smirked back.

"So Ava, tell me about yourself."

I gave him a strange look. Did we not just go over this literally 2 minutes ago?

"Don't look at me like that!" he laughed. "More than the basics. When's your birthday?, what's your middle name?, your first boyfriend?, how old were you when you had your first boyfriend?, I mean, hell, are you a virg-"

"Okay! Enough!" I yelled as I started dying from laughter.

"Well come on sunshine answer my questions!" he chuckled as he sat beside me on my bed.

What am I getting myself into with this kid?

"Well. My birthday is August 28th, my middle name is Grace, I haven't had a boyfriend before...or my first kiss... so, yes, I'm a virgin." I replied as my face turned a faded shade of pink. At least it was dark in my room.

"You're kidding me, right?" he questioned.

"No.." I said shyly.

"I find that hard to believe." he scoffed.

"Oh really? And why's that?" I chuckled.

"Because you're beautiful.." he murmured, staring at my lips.
"You're sweet, and shy, and I think that's adorable." He was slowly inching his face down towards mine.

"Really? most guys think that's a major turn off. They like the outgoing type." I smirked.

"Well babe, I'm not most guys." he smirked back.

"Touché." I laughed.

He reached his hand to brush my hair behind my ear.

"I don't know what this is.." he whispered.

"What?"

"These feelings.."

"What feelings?" I asked.

"Every time I'm around you Ava.." he paused. "I can't even explain it."

you mean the one night you've known me?

"Try." I whispered, putting my hand on his cheek.

"That's the problem..." he inched even closer and soon I felt his lips brush against mine.

My breath hitched when I felt his breath fan out against my lips.

As soon as it happened, it ended.

"Ava! I'm back!" I heard Jake yell from downstairs.

"You've got to be kidding me.." Trent groaned.

Trent hugged me before he left. Holy. Butterflies.

Not even a second later my nosey brother barged in.
