Chapter 5

It's the day after Zach and I's date and I am at school. It's first period and I already feel like I am dying. I hate school.

I just got a text from Zach hey is all it said.

Hi, I texted back.

What are you doing today?

Well Mr. high school dropout I

have school.

Oh and hey be nice. What time

is lunch? MWhat time do you get out?

Lunch is at 11:30 to 12:30 and I get

out at 3:30. Why?

Can I pick you up for lunch?

Yeah I would like that😆

"Who ya texting?" Rori asks seeing as she sits next to me in this class.

"Zach," I blush.

"So you guys are getting close?"

"Shit, I forgot to tell you. How could I forget to tell you?"

"Tell me what?"

"Zach and I went on a date last night," I say my smile growing large.

"Your kidding?" I just shake my head. "How could you not tell me?"

"I don't know".

"What did you guys do?"

"He took me to this rooftop bar/restaurant thing, it was amazing," I gush.

"That is so cute," she says happily.

"Mrs. Holland, Mrs. Stiles, will you please be quite," our teacher calls.

Two Weeks Later

The boys are leaving tomorrow and all of us are very sad about it. They are excited to get back to work but we have all become really close and it's going to suck not having them around. Jack and I have become best friends. Jonah is basically my older brother and he is very protective over me, which is very funny when it comes to Zach. Daniel and Corbyn act like my little brothers and it's honestly adorable. Zach and I text nonstop, FaceTime every night and he picks me up for lunch everyday at school - sometimes with the boys sometimes not.

I didn't thing you could get so close with people in just two weeks.

Tonight we are having a little going away party for the boys at my place, just the boys, Rori, and me.

All through the night we just hung out talking and enjoying this last night together.

The night was coming to an end when Zach whispered in my ear, "can I talk to you alone for a minute".

"Yeah," I said nervously. What did he want to talk about? Does he want to stop seeing me? Does he regret the last two weeks?

All the worst possibilities came to mind as Zach led me to the kitchen. "So I- I wanted to ask you something?" He stutters.

"Ok, what's up?" I ask grabbing his hand and stepping closer to him.

"I was wondering if... um... Olive, will you be my girlfriend?"

Relief flooded my body that he still wanted to be with me, than I realized what he just asked and happiness spread. "Of course you big dummy".

Zach smiled, grabbing my waist and pulling me closer. I swung my arms around his neck, leaning in a little. Finally our lips met, the last two weeks I have been longing for the feeling of his lips on mine and I t's better than I could have ever imagined. I could feel sparks of electricity corse through my body and it is the best feeling I have ever felt.

When we separated we stayed close, "I am so happy," I whisper.

"Me too," he said just as quiet.
