One Shots// Couple Goals

Inches Apart

We were both standing inches apart. Our sports day had come to an end. we were standing on the isolated part of the ground where no one could see us. "I dont think that this could be anything. That you and me...we.......We come from two diffferent worlds. You are an amzing athlete, you have your own group of friends. People actually know you, and want to be friends with you. While I'm a potato sack and no one knows me. I just like you and you know that, but I don't think we could ever work. I know that you probably don't even like me and I'm fine with that.

I never even thought that i will confront to you cause i always knew that i never had a chance but someone just came to know and he told you. you know what, you will probably even forget this by the end of the night. you might not even know what my name is-"

"Rachel, I know" he said. I was shook cause i never thought he would know my name. " And for your information I don't forget things." He smirked.

Suddenly it started to rain. We both were drenching in the rain but none of us ready to leave. So i told him, "umm, you can go to your friends now maybe tell them what a silly girl I was and make fun of me. I think this conversation should just end here." but he didn't budge, he was standing there and just looking at me. I was puzzled cause I thought he would actually be running far away from me by this point. I didn't know what to do , so i turned around and decided to just go home as much as i liked the weirdly comforting silence. i was about to take a step when he caught hold of my hand and pulled me back making my body crush into his strong chest. it was a very new feeling, something I have never experienced before. " Now let me tell you who i actually am. I'm the guy who has his eyes on this certain girl who is so naive that she thinks i don't like her." his breath fans on my neck while he speaks which causes the butterflies to erupt in my stomach. " who is this girl" i ask him. suddenly he pulls me in front of him and says," That girl is standing right here in front of me. That girl is the girl who calls herself a potato sack. That girl who has a little crush on me. That girl who i have a crush on. that girl is you."

I stand there speechless. he just confessed that he has feelings for me! I don't know why i do it, but I hug him. I hug him tightly as if my life depends on it. And as if on instinct his hands come around my waist. my head on his chest and his head on my shoulder. it feels so magical. i feel like i'm flying and i feel so safe in his arms.

Even with the rain drenching us wet, i can feel the warmth of his body. it feels perfect.

after what feels like a day or two but actually just two minutes, we separate and stand just inches apart. " i think that we can make this work. I think we can make this happen. I really do like you and would really like to spend my time with you. let's give 'us' a chance?" and i never think someone has ever meant their words than he has today. " one shot wouldn't harm anyone" I give him my most genuine and happy smile and we both stand there in silence, our foreheads touching. i think we both forget what time it is until i get a call from my mom. "looks like its time to leave". we make our way down the road and he offers to walk me home to which i say no. "you had a long day, you must be tired. you should go home and take some rest." he starts laughing, and i get confused. "what is so funny?" "do you really think that i am going to leave you alone at this time of the day when its raining and there is no cab in sight. I'm not going anywhere , now let's go."

I had no choice but to agree with him. so we started walking again. it was still raining and by this time the temperature had cooled down a lot. It was very chilly and the fact that we were completely soaked in the rain didn't help. I was shivering a little and i think he saw it because slowly i found my hand in his. Our fingers were interwined and his warm big hand actually warmed me a bit and calmed down the shiverings.

The walk to my house was one of the best walks i have had in my life. it was calming and peaceful. We talked about a lot of things and got to know about each other a lot.

When we were just a block away from my house, we said our goodbyes. He said that he would call me the next day and then did the most sweetest thing a man could possibly do. He stepped closer and dipped his head down and gave a peck on the forehead. His lips lingered there for a couple of seconds and then he let go of me.

I don't think i have ever smiled so much in my life as the way i smiled when i reached home. I think it was the best day ever.
