The Meet

"Girl, just come with me and say hi."

"No, what if he doesn't like me?"

"He's going to like you, just come!" She said as she yanked my arm.

"No! Wait! Bre, I can't!" I pleaded as I pulled away from her.

"Fine, then you stay here, and I will go talk to them." She said as she walked away.

"Wait, don't leave me!" I screamed.

Ugh! Why must I be such a woose. While I'm hiding behind this pole like a chicken, She was walking over toward the two hottest guys in school. Of course, it helps that she knows one of them, his name is Martin. He isn't my type. He is the school's biggest flirt. His friend, on the other hand, we haven't met. But one thing I know for sure is that he is super hot! He has gorgeous light brown eyes, an amazing smile, and perfect caramel skin with the perfect athlete's body. He was just perfect all together."

I stood behind the pole, too scared to look. Knowing Bre, she was probably talking about me. ugh, why am I so afraid? He is just a guy! "Talk to him," I mumbled to myself. Just as I turned around to walk over to them, I noticed he was gone. Bre is still talking to Martin, but his friend is gone. My heart dropped.

Am I too late?

"What up, lil mama?" I heard him say from behind me.

"What's up?" I replied as I slowly turned around. My voice cracked from how nervous I was.

"I'm KJ, what's your name?" he said. I wanted so badly to answer him, but I was stuck staring into his eyes. Lost, some would say. Everything else around me disappeared. I could feel myself drifting away.

Don't get too lost in them. " his words quickly brought me back to reality. I didn't quite catch what he said to me.

"I'm sorry, what?

"My eyes, it happens a lot. Dreamy, aren't they?" he said sarcastically with a smirk on his face.

"Let's not get full of ourselves now," I chuckled, feeling completely embarrassed. I can't believe I let myself stare into his eyes for so long.

"Hey, you're the one staring," he said, chuckling.

"I was not staring!" I said. Although, I definitely was.

"If you say so. So, what class are you headed to first?" He asked.

"Unfortunately, I'm headed to history first." I said, rolling my eyes.

"Mind if I walk you?" He asked as he extended his arm for me to grab.

"Sure, why not?" I said, grabbing his arm. I was nervous. All I could feel were butterflies in my stomach. I couldn't believe the hottest guy in school was walking me to class. I could feel my cheeks turning red.

"Bre tells me you're on the dance team, so I guess I'll be seeing you at our first game."

"I guess you will." I said with a smirk, although on the inside I was screaming. Great! Just another reason to be nervous, as if I wasn't nervous enough about our first half-time dance.

"Number 21, right? I asked, although I already knew his number.

"Yes, number 21, I see you already know what it is." He said, smiling with a cocky tone.

"A little full of ourselves, aren't we?" I said, smiling.

"Never that baby, I'm just confident." He said with his cocky tone again.

"Cocky is more like it," i said with a laugh.

"Well, it works for me. You see, I'm number 1 around here." He said more seriously.

I smiled, but before I could even respond, the warning bell rang. We had just gotten to my classroom. He gave me a hug and whispered in my ear, "I guess I'll see you later, beautiful." I felt myself drifting away again. His hug felt so warm and safe. I want him so bad.

"I see you two have met. That wasn't so hard now, was it? Now let's go." Said Bre as she looked at me with an innocent face.

"Sorry gotta go! I said, waving to KJ as my arm was being yanked away by Bre.

I turned to Bre.

"You have perfect timing, you know that!"
We both laughed as we made our way to class.
We both sat at our seats. Bre instantly turned to me seaking information.

"So? What happened." She said eagerly.

"Nothing, he offered to walk me, we just talked the whole way." I said with the biggest smile on my face.

"Did you give him your number?" She asked.

"No, we just met." I replied.

"Good morning, class. Please open up to where we left off yesterday in our books."  Said, Mr. Peterson.

The class was boring. Who pays attention to history at eight in the morning. It doesn't help that Mr. Peterson is monotone. Besides, my mind was on one thing and one thing only. I put my head down.

"Hey beautiful," just the sound of his voice gave me chills.

"Hey, handsome," I responded.

"Come with me," he said.

"Where to?" I asked.

"Just trust me." He said. As he held his hand out for me to grab.

"Okay." I said. As I placed my hand in his.

He then began to lead me toward the back of the school, still holding hands, we walked until we got to the fence. There was a hole in the fence. I assumed we were going to go through the hole, but out of nowhere, I was yanked around and pushed up against the fence. He stared deep in my eyes as he grabbed my neck gently with both hands. Then his lips touch mine. As we began to kiss, one of his hands wandered down from my neck to my hips. He pulls me closer, and he is now kissing my neck as I'm pulling on his shirt, yanking him closer. He is now back kissing my lips, his hand wandering up my skirt. I could feel a tingling feeling all through my body as the moment intensified more and just as he was about to touch my coochie..

DING! DING! DING!

Suddenly, I was brought back to reality as the bell rang. Oh well, time for our next class, I guess.

As the second period went on, all I could think about was KJ and that wild dream I had. How I wanted so badly to see him again. That dream felt so real, or maybe I just wanted it to be real. I needed to see him, but unfortunately, I didn't have any classes with him, which meant I won't see him again until lunchtime. I feel like time is just dragging right now.
