- Almost Kisses Number One -
When I have geometry on the first floor, he has another class on the second.
Our paths always cross.
When they do, he makes this joke, where he grabs my arm and starts pulling me back to the stairs, as if he's dragging me to come with him to his class instead of mine. <3
But this time. It was different.
He grabbed my arm, then slipped his hand down until our fingers interlocked.
"Johnny, let go," I protested. "I'm gonna be late for geometry."
"No," was his simple answer for each of my pleadings.
Finally, I said firmly, "Johnny. Let. Go."
He leaned forward, still holding my hand tight.
His beautiful brown eyes looked down at my lips, and his own mouth puckered just the tiniest bit.
I watched him with shock.
Is he going to kiss me? I thought, watching him, blushing deeply.
When his lips were just a millimeter from mine, he stopped.
"No," he whispered, eyes sparkling.
Then, he pulled back, let go of my hand...
And left me breathless.
