You
I miss you and I don't know why.
When I see you my heart beats faster.
Your smile, or even your voice,
Could make me melt on the spot.
I don't understand these feelings...
I thought we were just friends...
But maybe I was wrong again...
Maybe deep down,
I've always loved you.
-Kait
As Zac read, we saw redness creep up into his cheeks.
"Zac, you're blushing," Tay commented. I smacked him and Zac quickly
put the paper back into the envelope.
"She wrote that?? For ME???"
"Yeah. She doesn't know I gave it to you though." Zac nodded and went
over to his dresser. He opened his top drawer and put the envelope under
something.
"Oooh...the underwear drawer. Must be special!" Tay said.
"Shut up Tay." Zac hauled himself up into his bed. I pulled Tay down on
his bed and sat by him. He flipped on the TV. Beavis and Butthead was on.
"We can watch this!" He said. As we watched Beavis and Butthead
acting stupid, Kait walked through the partially opened door. She shut it behind
her. Tay just started cracking up. Kait gave him a funny look.
"Hi guys. You're back."
"Yep! Sit up here by me!" Zac exclaims. Kait climbs the ladder and sits
by him. Their feet are hanging off the edge. She's still wearing his jacket. "Hi
Kait!"
"Hi Zac. Here's your coat."
"You can keep it still. I don't need it. I'm not cold. If I am, that's MY
problem." Tay and I listened as they talked.
"Okay, I guess."
"Can I ask you a question?"
"You just did, but sure."
"Oh yeah. Ummm...so what'd you do when we were gone?"
"THAT'S your question? Okay. We went shopping and just kind of hung
out."
"What'd ya buy?"
"A desk, a word processor, a shirt, some jeans, a camera, shoes, nail polish,
a swimming suit, and a dress for the dance."
"Cool. What's the dress like?"
"It's pink with red dots and red lace around the bottom, and in an X on
the chest."
"Cool. I'll have to see it."
"Just DO it Zac!" Tay yelled.
"Stop listening Tay, it's RUDE!" Zac blushed. Kait was confused. Her
and Zac just watched the show for a minute. When Kait looked absorbed in the
show, Zac quietly scooted closer to her. She didn't notice until he got so close
that his orange pants touched her cloud print and Khaki ones. She turned her
head to him and their faces almost touched.
"I gotta ask you another question."
"Shoot."
"Will you go out with me?" Kait licked her lips and leaned in, filling the
gap between them. Their mouths touched, and their lips moved together. The
kiss lasted about two minutes. Tay and I had noticed that it had gotten really
quiet, and that their feet were closer than they had originally been.
Tay got up and looked at them. Then he sat down and whispered to me
with wide eyes, "They're making OUT!!" I just smiled and told him to watch
the show. After their kiss ended, Zac hugged Kait very closely and just held her.
(*Finally*)
"I take it that's a yes?"
Kait smiled. "Of course."
"Okay guys. You're FINALLY going out. Now watch TV." I tell them.
They break off from their embrace, and link their fingers together to watch the
show.
"Yuck. I HATE this one. Beavis cuts his finger off and bleeds
everywhere. It's gross. I don't want to watch it." Kait said.
"So don't." Zac stated.
"What am I gonna DO then?"
"Kiss me!"
"Ew you guys. Get a frickin' room!" Tay said.
"We aren't DOING anything!" Kait responded.
"Now we are!" Zac announced, putting his hands on her shoulders. He
pushed her down onto the bed backwards. He sat on her stomach and started to
softly kiss her face all over.
"Zac!" She protested.
"What? You don't like my kisses?" He sounded hurt.
"I LOVE your kisses Zac. I just don't want to get them here."
"Okay, we'll leave then!" He rolled off of her.
"Zac. No. I have to go though. I have to clean." She quickly jumped off of
the bed and onto the floor in front of me and Tay. She made a small noise as her
slim body landed on the carpet. "Come on Air. Our room's a pigsty." I briefly
kissed Tay good-bye and followed her out of the room.
