Well crap.. I thought. If I tell her now she’ll know I basically love her.. not just temporry chrush..

“Jay? It’s okay.. I’m not going to make fun of you for whoever you like.” Winter said, snapping me back to the present.

I took a deep and blurted, “WinterI’velikedyouforevercan’tyousee?Everyoneelsehas!”

I heard Winter gasp and look away. I felt my cheeks burn from embarassment at her rejection. The final blow was when she scooted away and looked at me with tear stained cheeks.

I stood up to leave her alone, but she pulled me back down. Before I knew what was happening, her lips were on mine and she pulled be back down so were were only milimeters apart.

When we finally pulled apart, we were both breathing hard.

“Winter.. Wh.. What was that?” I asked as both of our lungs begged for more and more air.

Winter’s face glistened from the heat radiating off both of our bodies and she smiled like she was a child with a secret. “Jay, I think I may be in love with someone.”
