It was now Monday morning. Slowly, you awoke to the little, light, seeping in through your bedroom window. Tossing over in your sheets, you glanced at the clock. It was barely a little past five in the morning. A long yawn came from your mouth, as you sat up in bed, and looked out your window. Pinks, and oranges colored the sky as the sun was just rising, then you looked over towards the familiar neighboring house, and looked into the window across from yours.
Inside, Scotty was laying there, sprawled out in his bed, sound asleep. That’s when it hit you, like a ton of boulders falling from the sky. Your heart sunk deep down inside you, as your breathing began to pick up. That’s when you realized, it was the day Scotty was leaving for the American Idol LIVE shows. Today was the last day you were going to see him and for who knows how long till he gets back.
Pushing the comforter and sheets away from you, goosebumps began to cover your skin as the cool air surrounded you. Your stomach began to heave, you felt like you were going to puke, as you quickly ran for the bathroom.
Ripping your hair back out of your face, you waited, as your gag reflex began to work. You were gagging, but yet, nothing was coming up. Not sure if you should trust this or not, you slowly stood up, with your stomach slowly beginning to stop heaving, and leaned back against the wall. And before you knew it, you were sprawled out on the smooth tiled floor, not willing to move, you just laid there, hoping that nothing would come out of your system.
Grogginess, over came you then. Your eyelids began to droop, as a sudden tiredness weighed in on your mind. You just laid there, not sure if you should try to get up and go back to your bed, or just lay there and wait for someone to come find you.
You decided on the first decision, not wanting to give anyone a sudden fright when they’d walk into the bathroom.
Gripping onto the tub, you wrenched yourself upwards, and soon enough you were on your feet. Taking each step with care, you slowly made your way out of the bathroom, down the hall and back to your room.
Shutting the door behind yourself, you quickly climbed back into your bed and pulled the covers up to your chin. Craning your head, you looked up at the clock and realized it was almost six thirty ‘has all that time really passed?’ you thought, then just shrugged and turned to look out the window.
The oranges and pinks were now brighter than ever as they were surrounded by the different shade of blues, while the sun was almost in full view now.
Inside the house next door, Scotty was still sound asleep in his bed, but he seemed to be handing halfway off the side, this made a smile creep onto your face, as your eyelids slowly closed, and darkness over came you as you were slowly pulled under.
The next thing you knew, you were practically being dragged out of your bed, by your mom. “no! i don’t wanna go!” she yelled “and why not?” your mom asked, tearing away your sheets “because” you said firmly, pulling your sheets back over your head. Crossing her, arms she shook her head then turned her attention towards the window.
A minute later, her arms slowly dropped as she looked down towards you “is that why?” she asked, pointing out towards the window “is what?” you asked, trying to stall her “is the reason why you don’t want to go to school, because so you don’t have to see Scotty on his final day here in Garner?” she asked, sitting down at the end of your bed “n-no” you stuttered out “(full name) that’s not how things work in this house, this is going to come to a stop right now” she said, as she quickly got up and ran out of the room. Starring at the door, you sat there, wondering what she was about to do.
Minutes later you were back to laying down in your bed, head covered by your pillow and blankets pulled up to your chin. But when the door made the slightly creak as it opened, you shot right up and looked over. You furrowed your eyebrows, as you found Scotty standing there, leaning up against the frame. Trying to ignore him, you fell back down, curled up into a tiny ball and shut your eyes so tightly you felt like you’d never open them again.
“rise and shine (yourname) get up, get dressed, and come on, we have to get to that wonderful building of education” Scotty said, as he walked over and sat down at the foot of your bed. Opening your eyes, you looked to see where he was, and once you spotted him, you picked up your pillow and chucked it at him. “well aren’t you a grumpy gus, this morning” he said placing the pillow back onto the bed “i’m a girl” you mumbled into your sheets “well pardon me, negative nancy” he said with a chuckle to follow. Siting up, you glared at him, as you crossed your arms “what do you want?” you asked, eyes piercing into his. “it’s not what i want, it’s what you want” he said scootching a bit closer to you “huh?” you asked, confused. “(yourname), youre too easy to read, i can see that you don’t want me to go but then i can also see that you want me to go, so what do you want me to do, stay or go?” he asked, grabbing onto your hand. You looked down at your guys’ hands, and watched has he held onto your hand tightly “I, I, I want you to go” you said, smile on your face as you looked back up at him “you sure?” he asked “definitely” you said, with a real smile on your face “alright then, well come on we have to get to school” he said, getting up off your bed and pulling you with him “fine” you groaned, as you walked over to your dresser drawers “be out there in the next fifteen minutes, or i’m leaving you here” he said, as he walked out of the room and began closer your door “good, i hope you do” you said barely above a whisper.
With your back pack firmly on your shoulders, you were walking down the school hall way, with Scotty by your side.
Walking into first period, you quickly took your seat, towards the back of the room, Scotty sat down in the seat in front of you “are you okay? You look a little pale” he said, worried “yeah, i’m fine” you said, half way lying. You weren’t feeling okay, you felt like you were going to pass out at any second from exhaustion, but other than that, you were sure you were fine. “alright” he said, but before he could continue the bell rang, he got up from the seat and walked out of the room, to head to his first period class.
Minutes later the class began, you sat there tapping your pencil against your open notebook as you starred out the window. The birds that were perched in the tree, outside the class room window, were singing a happy tune. This bugged you, how was every one else able to be happy, and you had to be stuck with this bad mood.
And before you ever realized, you were venting into your notebook, as the class dragged on.
The next three classes passed, and you were finally in fifth period.
‘just this class, and then i’ll be seeing Scotty’ you thought to yourself, as you took a seat. Pulling out your notebook, you looked towards the board to see if there were any notes that needed to be copied, but there were none. Looking around, there was no teacher in site.
You watched as all the other students just chatted along with each other. Waiting for class to start, you began tapping your fingers against your desk, as you turned around every so often to see if the teacher was about to walk into the room, but he never came, everytime you looked.
Half way through the period, you began to feel tired, as your stomach did summer salts, inside you. Slowly, you lowered your head, and rested it on your hand, in hopes your teacher would show up soon.
Just as you felt like your eyes were about to close, the teacher walked into the room. “sorry i’m late class” he said in an enthusiastic voice. Quickly you raised your hand “ahh, yes (yourname)” he said, pointing towards you “can i go to the bathroom?” you asked, he nodded his head. Getting up pout of your seat, you collected your things and walked out of the room.
Walking down the dim lit hallway, you kept your eyes on covered walls, and as you approached the show case, you slowed down to complete stop.
You starred at the trophies resting there, showing the pride of Garner Magnet Highschool. Everyone could tell, by just looking at these shiny sculpted pieces of metal, that sports were a big part of the school.
Then slowly you began to walk again, as you looked at the sports team pictures. You came to a halt, as you reached the last seasons baseball picture. You looked at each boys face, all too serious in a way. Then you stopped at Scotty’s face, serious but yet a smile on the verge of showing. This caused you to smile slightly, and just as you were about to touch the glass of the picture frame, the bell rang throughout the hallway, causing you to jump slightly.
Students began to run out of classrooms, in hopes of getting to the cafeteria. Shaking your head slightly, you just adjusted the strap of your backpack on your shoulder and turned in the other direction and walked down the hallway.
Stepping foot into the cafeteria, you took in the energy around you. Everyone seemed fairly in good moods, you couldnt help but have this change your mood.
Reaching the usual table, you took your seat next to Scotty. “hey” he said, lightly nudging your arm “hey’ you said, quietly, biting your lip “you seem in a better mood” he pointed out “yeah, actually i am” you said, meeting his eyes.
“Scotty, you’re not gonna go all Hollywood on us, are ya?” James asked from across the table “nah, brotha, my feet are glued to the ground and staying there” Scotty said, smacking the table with his hand. “wait, what are you guys talking about?” Clara asked, looking towards James, who, you could see, holding her hand under the table “oh you didn’t know? Scotty tried out for American idol” James said, beaming a smile towards her “oh no i didn’t, i havent watched that show in awhile” she said, shrugging “Well you definitely should now, Scotty’s going onto the LIVE shows now!” James said excitedly “well good luck Scotty!” Clara said, excitedly “thank ya” Scotty said, gratefully.
The talk about American idol dimmed down, as you all just switched to different topics or began eating.
And before you knew it, you were walking down the tiled hallway to your sixth period class.
As soon as you took a seat, you rested your head on your arms, praying that the class would end before it even starts. You could hear the teacher walk to the front of the class room, so you decide to seat up, so you wouldn’t get in trouble.
“alright class today were gonna go over” but before the teacher could continue speaking the telephone rang “talk quietly” he said, as he swiftly walked over to phone and quickly picked it up.
Slowly, you laid you head down once more, closing your eyes this time, hoping that you’d fall asleep and would wake up in your bed. “(yourname) you heard your teacher suddenly said. Sitting up, you looked at him, he gestured for you to come over.
Every one in the room was starring at you as you picked up your things and walked over to him “they want you in the office” he said, opening the door for you “okay” you said a bit confused, but just left the room quickly.
As you walked down the hall, you kept your eyes on the tiled floor below you feet, not wanting to get distracted by the things hanging on the wall.
Turning the knob to the office, you walked in and one of the secretaries looked up at you, with a questioning look “i’m (full name)” you said, sheepishly “please take a seat” she said, pointing to one of the chairs, against a wall. Looking over in that direction, you found Scotty sitting there, waiting.
Taking a seat by him, you set your stuff on the floor “whats going on?” you whispered to him “not sure” he said with a shrug. You two sat there in silence then.
Minutes later, the office doors opened, looking up you found your mom and Mrs. McCreery walking in. About to stand up, you stopped as your mom held one finger up towards you, you sat there, waiting as she walked over and signed something then Judy signed the same thing and then the two motioned for you guys to come. Standing up, you both followed your moms out of the office and the school.
“scotty, take you and (yourname) home in your truck, alright?” Mrs. McCreery asked. Scotty nodded and you both got in.
The car turned into Scotty’s family driveway and you both quickly got out. “honey, put your back pack inside and then come next door, alright?” your mom said, from the McCreery’s front porch, you nodded and quickly ran up the front steps to your house.
Opening the door, since it was already unlocked, you walked inside and tossed your back pack onto the couch, then you turned right around and ran out of the house.
Running across the yard, and up the front porch of the McCreery’s house, you stood there for a moment and tried to think if you should knock or walk right in. Not wanting to be rude you decided to knock, but once your fist was about to come in contact with the wood, the door opening, revealing Scotty on the other side. He just lightly chuckled, and stepped aside, allowing you to come in.
Walking through the house, you found everyone sitting there in the living room. Looking around at everyone, as they talked, you quickly took a seat on one of the empty couch cushions, Scotty sat down next to him, and you couldn’t help but smile at him.
After a few seconds of just looking at each other, you quickly turned away and looked over towards the blank tv. “so why did you take us out of school early?” Scotty asked the question that you were wondering yourself “well, sweet heart, we just thought maybe, you like to spend time with all of us before you and me left” Judy said, brilliant smile shining on her face, Scotty nodded his head in understanding.
“how was school?” Mr. Mccreery suddenly asked, after a few moments of silence “good, it was good, in chorus they made me a cake, it was in the shape of a boot” Scotty said, bright smile on his face while he starred down at his hands “was it any good?” your dad asked “yeah, actually it was” Scotty said, looking up at them.
A few hours later, Mrs. Mccreery finally got up off the couch and picked up her purse. “where are you going mom?” Scotty asked, looking at her confused “well i thought maybe we all could go to bojangles, since you know Scotty, there isnt a bojangles in California” she said “what! there isn’t?” he said “mom get your money ready, i’m gonna buy everything there!” he said, getting up off the couch and running out of the house. “that boy and his chicken” you said, shaking your head as yo followed everyone out of the house “well you gotta admit, that is some good chicken” Ashley said, as she walked next to you “got that right” you said, walking down the porch steps. Looking in the driveway, you found Scotty standing by his truck “(yourname) wanna ride with me?” he asked, hoping for a yes. Looking towards you parents, to see if it was okay, they nodded their heads, you thanked them and then turned towards scotty “sure” you said, walking over to the truck and getting in.
Scotty pulled out of the driveway, after his parents and yours had.
“lets take a different route today” he said, as he suddenly took a turn. You knew for a fact that the ride to bojangles was gonna be longer now, since he had made the turn, but you didn’t care.
Starring down at your hands, resting in your lap, you bit your lip, and looked up at Scotty, who had one hand on the steering will, and the other resting on the seat. It took him a moment before he realized you were looking at him, but once he did, he smiled. “what?” he asked, looking at you for just a second, then looking back towards the road. “promise me something?” you asked, smiling slightly “depends, what is it?” he asked, as he came to a stop sign. “promise me” you began, but stopped “promise you what?” Scotty asked, as he got closer to you “promise me, that you won’t forget about me” you said, quickly looking down.
Scotty grabbed your hand, safely in his. Quickly you looked up “there is no way i could forget you, it’s impossible” he said, while his blue eyes burned into yours “okay” was all you could say. Scotty slowly began to lean in then, and so did you. Just inches apart, a car behind you suddenly honked, causing you and Scotty to quickly separate. You both quietly laughed, as Scotty sped forward, while he still held onto your hand.
Pulling into the Bojangles parking lot, Scotty instantly spotted his parents car, parked in the nearest parking space towards the building. Turning the truck into the space right next to his parents car, Scotty pulled his hand away from yours, as he turned off the engine and then looked towards you “ready?” he asked, unbuckling his seat belt “ready? as in to see you stuff yourself with so much bojangles that you’ll burst, well then i guess so!” you said, with a little giggle as you unbuckled your seat belt and climbed out.
“well missy, i betcha that you’ll eat just as much as i will” Scotty said, as he met you at the front of the truck “not gonna happen” you said, as Scotty opened the door and held it opened for you, you thanked him, then walked inside.
“well ya know, since this will be the last time you’ll be eating bojangles with me in who knows how long, you might as well eat as much as you can!” Scotty whispers, as you guys stand there for a moment, in search of your family. “fine” you mumbled, and began to walk to the back of the restaurant, where you found the McCreery’s and your parents and sister, already digging in. “Scotty, yours & (yournames) food is right there” Mr. McCreery said, after swallowing a bit of biscuit. “thanks” you and Scotty both said, as you took a seat in the booth across from the parents.
Sitting there, on the table, was the largest order of bojangles, you’ve probably ever seen. There was four large cups of bojangles sweet tea, five boxes of fried chicken, two boxes of biscuits, and three bo berry biscuits.
Looking up from the food, you laughed, as you found Scotty starring at the food, practically drooling. “Scotty, you got a little something right there” you said, pointing at your lip “huh?” he asked, wiping his hand across his lip “yeah, there, you got the drool away” you said laughing “ha, ha, very funny, now come on i’m hungry, lets eat!” he said, as he began to dig in.
Some time later, Scotty and you were walking back to his truck, belly’s full of food, and arms filled with the extras that you absolutely weren’t able to eat. Opening the passenger side door, Scotty helped you in, even though he knew you were capable of doing it yourself. “thanks” you whispered, he shut the door and leaned in through the open window “youre welcome” he whispered back, as he winked at you then quickly pulled away and walked to his side. You watched as he opened the door and climbed in, then he buckled up and turned the engine on. “what?” he asked, realizing you were looking at him “nothing” you said, shrugging your shoulders “alright than” he said, shaking his head, but smile still placed on his face. Biting your lip, you looked ahead, as you relaxed into your seat, while Scotty pulled out of the parking space.
Looking around, you realized the McCreery’s & your family, were long gone. ‘those men sure know how to get away’ you thought about your dad and Mr. McCreery. And soon enough Scotty was speeding off down the road.
The wind whistled through the open window of the truck, as the sun began to fade down. Laying your arms on the door of the truck, you rested your chin there, and watched as you zoomed past houses, the wind began to blow harder, causing your hair to fly all over the place. “you need to put a warning on that hair of yours” Scotty said suddenly “huh?” you asked, looking at him, as you furrowed your brows. “the wind blew your hair into my face, i couldnt see for a moment, it was scary!” Scotty said, in a joking tone “ha, ha, ha, very funny, you need to get a warning sign on that mouth of yours” you joked. “why? is it because they swoon over it?” Scotty asked, smug smile on his face, as he pulled the truck into the driveway. “no, it’s because you sound like youre fifty, you’ll scare those girls away!” you joked, getting out of the truck. “okay that was harsh” he said, getting out of the truck himself “well if you can’t take the heat, then stay out of the kitchen” you said, winking at him and beginning to head for his house.
The sound a boots pounding against the ground made you want to run. But just as you were about to take that first step, his arms were already around your waist, picking you up in his arms. Once you were locked in his grip, he smiled at you, then began to spin out of control. You couldn’t even scream, your voice was gone, the sound was coming from Scotty, who was laughing out of control.
You were guessing he was starting to get dizzying. Because he began to wobble as he spun, then suddenly, he lost his footing and came crashing to the ground. In that second all you could think was ‘oh no, he’s gonna land on me, this is gonna hurt’ and you braced yourself for the pain.
But when you actually did fall, there was no pain at all. Opening your eyes, you looked over and realized you were on top of Scotty, he must of known that he was going to land on you, so at some point, he must of spun around, so that you would’ve landed on him, instead.
“you alright?” he asked “yeah, i’m fine” you whispered, looking at him, deeply in the eyes. He began to sit up slowly, so carefully you got up off him, but just sat there in the grass. “you sure?” he asked, leaning in closer to you. You opened your mouth to speak, but nothing came out, so you quickly just nodded.
Blood flowed to your cheeks, staining them pink, as you realized Scotty would look from your eyes, to your lips, then back to your eyes. He then began to slowly lean in. But you just sat there, still, not moving, and in your head, you could only think was of him leaving.
When you were almost able to touch his nose with yours, the front door suddenly opened. “Scotty! (yourname)! Come on in you two, it’s getting cold out there!” Judy yelled, if she knew what was about to happen, she wouldn’t of yelled to you guys, you knew that for sure, but it was too dark to see anything. “okay!” you yelled, once you found your voice again, as you got up. “dagum” you heard Scotty quietly whisper to himself, as you two headed in for the house, you just smiled to yourself, not going to say a word.
Walking into the living room, there was no one in there, you were guessing everyone was in the kitchen. “wanna watch a movie?” Scotty asked, looking at you “sure, what movie?” you asked, taking a seat on one of the couch cushions. Scotty crouched down, as he scanned the movies, then he pulled one out and stood back up “how about Remember the Titans?” he asked looking from you, to the DVD in hand. “sure” you said, smiling.
Judy walked into the room then “can you two watch that in Scotty’s room? Your parents want to see something on tv real quick” Judy said, smiling at you with her sweet smile “oh yeah, sure we can” you said, standing up and looking at Scotty “if it’s alright with him that is” you said, wanting to make sure “yeah, come on” he said, flipping the movie in his hand, then running for the stairs.You quickly followed behind.
Walking into his room, you jumped onto the bed, and got comfy, as he went and put the movie in. Once it was in, and he hit play, he walked over to the bed and sat down by you, placing his arms behind his head.
“Everywhere we go, everywhere we go, people wanna know, people wanna know, who we are, who we are, so we tell them, so we tell them” Scotty and you say along with the movie, suddenly Scotty stands up on his bed and begins to jump up and down “scotty what are you doing!” you said “oh come on, stop being stubborn and have some fun” he says grabbing your hand and pulls you up “fine!” you say jumping up and down on the bed along with him “we are the titans, we are the titans, mighty mighty titans, mighty mighty titans,who ha oh yeah” you two finish yelling, then you both jump up off the bed and land on the floor, with a loud thud. “oops” you both whisper “Scotty Cooke McCreery what is going on up there?” Judy yelled up the stairs. Scotty stood up and ran to his door, and opened it “oh nothing, (yourname) just fell off the bed! You know how clumsy she is!” Scotty yelled back. “alright! tell her to be more careful!” Judy yelled back up “i will!” Scotty yelled back down, then shut his door and turned around. You were standing there, hands on your hips, glaring at him “what?” he asked “next time don’t blame something on me that was your job” you said, lightly pushing his shoulder, then turning around and going to lay back down on the bed “hey you’ve fallen off my bed like twice already! You know that saying, third times a charm, so i might as well of said it!” he said, while laughing as he laid down by you “well i think its your turn” you said, trying to push him off the bed, but you gave up after a few seconds of getting no where. He just laughed, and placed on arm around your shoulder, as he turned to look at the TV.
Scotty’s P.O.V
The credits rolled on the screen, as the movie ended. Removing his arm from (yourname), who fell asleep some time ago, he got up off the bed and walked over to the tv, to take the disc out. As he pressed the open button, and the disc came out, a sound from behind him caught his attention. Turning around, he found (yourname) mumbling something in her sleep, he just laughed, and turned back to the tv. He took the disc out, then placed it back in the case and turned his TV off.
Walking back over to his bed, he sat on the end of it, and just watched (yourname) for a moment, as she began to toss in her sleep. Once again, he couldnt help but laugh. “well i guess its time to make sure i got everything” he said, walking over to the corner of his room, and grabbing his suitcase. He then placed it in the middle of his room, and sat down. Opening it up, he pulled out the list of items, that his mom had suggested for him to write, and began to go through everything in the suitcase.
After pulling everything out then putting it all back in, Scotty zipped his suitcase up, and pushed it to the side. Looking up towards the bed, he smiled as he found (yourname) still asleep. Her hair was all over the place, with her mouth slightly hanging open, but he couldn’t help but think this was cute. Slowly he got up and sat back down on the bed.
A light knock sounded on his door then “come in” Scotty said, looking towards the door. The wooden door creaked open, revealing Mr. McCreery on the other side. “it’s time to go, Scotty” Mr. McCreery said, Scotty could hear the crack in his fathers voice, but he didn’t say anything about it. “alright, can you take my suitcase? I’m gonna carry (yourname) out to the truck” Scotty said “why?” Mr. McCreery asked, but still taking the suitcase in his hand “you know how much she hates these kinda things, a silent car ride would make it worse for her, so i’m just going to wake her up when we get there” he said, turning to face (yourname) “alright, see you out there” Mike said, turning out the door.
Putting his arms under (yourname)’s knees and behind her back, he lifted her up, and easily carried her out of the room. He carried her down the hallway, and even carefully down the stairs.
Reaching the bottom of the steps, everyone was standing in the living room “ready?” Judy asked, Scotty just nodded and headed out the front door.
Mr. McCreery had the back door opened already, so Scotty carefully placed (yourname) in, then climbed in himself. Quickly he buckled her up, then buckled himself up and got ready for the ride.
The quiet rides were always the hardest part, he could never tell what anyone was thinking, but it’d be a bit better, since (yourname) was sleeping and he wouldnt have to look at her tear filled eyes for another twenty minutes. In that time he would be able to prepare himself for this, so he just sat back in his seat and starred up at in the moon, as they drove down the street.
“we’re here” Mr. McCreery said, as he shut the engine off. Scotty came back out of his day dreams, realizing they were at the airport. He took a deep breath, as he turned towards (yourname) and gently shook her shoulder “(yourname) wake up” Scotty whispered. Her eye lids flickered for a moment, then they opened fully. She looked around, confused of course “scotty” she began to say, but Scotty held his finger up to his lips and made a shh-ing sound “we’re at the airport, come on” he said, motioning for her to follow.
She got out and followed everyone into the airport. Scotty could see the pain running through her, but she was being strong this time, stronger than she ever was before.
With suitcase in one hand, he reached for her hand with his open one. She looked up at him, once he had a hold of her hand, it wasn’t in the relationship lovey dovey kinda hand holding, it was int he reassuring kinda way. “thanks” she whispered, holding onto his hand even tighter “no problem” he whispered back, then looked ahead.
Minutes later, after going through the whole process, it was time for Scotty to board the plane.
“bye dad, i’ll see you soon, okay?” Scotty asked, giving his dad a hug “see you soon son! the house is gonna be lonely with out you and momma” he said, hugging his son back tightly “i know, but you have Ash to keep you company” Scotty said, as he moved on to his big sister “only when im not away at college” she said, pulling her brother into a hug “just keep him as much company as you can, love you” Scotty said hugging her back “i will”. He then moved onto Mr. & Mrs. (lastname), “i’ll see you guys soon” Scotty said, hugging Mrs. (lastname) and then bumping his fist with Mr. (lastname) “sure will, we’ll be rooting for ya” Mr. (lastname) said “thank ya” Scotty said.
Then, he moved onto (yourname). She was starring at the ground, not wanting to meet his eyes. “(yourname)” Scotty said, and reluctantly she looked up at him. His blue eyes looked deeply into hers. “yes?” she asked “i’ll miss you” he said, rubbing the back of his neck with his hand “i’ll miss you too, country boy” she whispered as she hugged him, calling him the little nickname she gave him years ago “not as much as i’ll miss you, southern belle” he said, hugging her tighter. They pulled away then, “scotty come on, we gotta go now” Judy said. He looked from her, to his dad, sister, Mr. & Mrs. (lastname) then to (yourname), his eyes stayed locked with hers. “bye” he whispered to all of them, as he slowly began to step back.
He turned away and began to walk with his mom. The thought of (yourname) looking at him with those eyes, sent a shiver down his spine. He turned his head, and found her still starring at him, then he looked at his mom, she turned to look at him “go ahead, hun, i’ll be waiting right here” she whispered, knowing what he wanted to do. He nodded his head and turned around, and ran back to (yourname).
“Scotty, what are you doing?” (yourname) whispered. He didn’t say anything, he just gently (yourname)’s chin, and kissed her.
Your P.O.V
A shiver slid down your spine, as your lips came in contact with Scotty’s. It was a soft gently kiss, but had more passion then the other two kisses you and Scotty shared. One part of you was thinking ‘seriously Scotty, You had to kiss me, now? When you’re going off to idol, these next four months are gonna be torture, you stupid, stupid boy’ but another part of you was yelling ‘SHUT UP STUPID AND JUST ENJOY It! THOUSANDS OF GIRLS ARE GONNA WANNA KISS THIS BOY IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS, SO JUST BE HAPPY!’ The two thoughts were fighting each other, you didn’t know if you should just enjoy it and move on, or be angry with this blue eyed country boy kissing you right now.
Slowly he pulled away, but pulled you into a hug, and held you there, for a moment or two. “Scotty come on” Judy called. He looked at her, then back to you. He bent down and kissed you quick, then looked you in your eyes “i love you” he whispered, then without waiting for a reply, he turned back around and ran off to his mom.
“I love you too, Scotty” you whispered as you watched him go off to bigger and better things.
