When
Life Gives You Lemons
Chapter 13
He caught my gaze in his and whispered,
"Steph, just umm, thanks for the help today...."
"It's no problem,really." "Well I was wondering if
maybe we could hang out tomorrow? You know, if you want
to..." "That would be great Anthony." "K
cool, just come over anytime... and you can call me
Tony." "Tony." i repeted. Then he rode off
and I walked into my house satisfied.
I woke up around 9:30 am and got ready. I wanted to look really
nice today so I looked through my never ending closet for a
halfhour until I found the perfect outfit. I ended up wearing
white abercrombie shorts and a flowy turquoise and white tank
top. I also wore dangly heart earings and gladiator sandals. I
went into the bathroom and pulled my long,curly brown hair down
from my ponytale. I brushed through it until it shined and was as
perfect as possible. I smeared on some eyeliner, grabbed my
phone, than ran out the door to Tony's house. We hung out in the
backyard for a while and then I decided I'd show him around town,
where most 15 year olds hang out. We were walking down the
street, laughing and having a good time when I gazed over at him
and he looked into my eyes at the exact moment. I felt some kind
of connection. I started to blush, but I didn't look away.
Neither did he... and before I knew it we were holding hands. We
slowly inched closer to eachother until my shoulder was almost
against his arm. And yes, his arm. I'm pretty tall for a
girl,5'7, but hes tall for a guy to. He must be like 6'1. He's
just so perfect.
At noon we went to the diner and got lunch. We talked about
ourselves the whole time. When I got to the part in my life about
Charlie, he found my hand under the table and sqeezed it tight. I
feel really i dont know, safe, apreciated... loved, around him.
Technically, we arent a couple, but I hope we will be someday,
cuz theres a hole in my heart from where Charlie used to be, yea,
i know, for a month, and it needs to be filled with the warmth it
was filled with before.
