“So maybe we could go out again next weekend?” he asked. He looked at her hopefully, and then turned away and try to play it cool.
She decided to not be cool and let him know that she definitely wanted another date. “I was hoping you would ask me out again. Of course I’ll go,” she said.
Her response seemed to have the effect on his confidence she wanted, because he smiled broadly and stepped closer to her.
“So maybe you’d go out with me the week after that, too?” he asked.
“Maybe even the week after that,” she said as she tilted her head up and leaned just a tad closer to him. She hoped he picked up her not-too-subtle hint.
He put one hand on her shoulder, and the other around her waist and pulled her close. Diana’s heart started pounding. His arms were stronger than she’d imagined, and he seemed entirely less shy. He’d changed from cute to practically movie star sexy. She had to stop herself from squealing with delight. It was happening. It had happened to nearly all of her friends, but it was finally happening to her.
He lowered his mouth to hers, and she closed her eyes. Then, she felt his soft, sweet lips against hers. He didn’t scare her by being too aggressive, but she definitely felt like they both wanted to try it again and again. It was perfect.
He pulled away, and looked into her eyes. He was smiling.
“So you’re my girlfriend now, right?” he said.
“Right,” she answered. He smile broadened even more.
“See you at school tomorrow, then,” he said as he stumbled away.“Okay,” she said instantly wishing she’d thought of something cooler to say, but then she realized he didn’t mind.
He was practically skipping back to his car. She turned to let herself into her house, and then looked back and saw him wave good bye. She waved at him, closed the door, and then ran upstairs to call her best friend.
