I almost feel selfish when I compliment myself when writing in Ben's point of view. Lol. Whatever, ENJOY <3
Chapter Two.
Point Of View: Bébhinn.
I'm sitting in gym right now, kind of listening to Sarah drone on about her boyfriend Leif. And I think Elise is talking about Charlie. Whatever. I'm pretending to listen but really I'm not. I'm just staring at... HOLY. EW. Ben. Ew. God. What the...
Point Of View: Ben.
I laugh when she realizes she's staring at me. I can almost see the steam coming out of her ears. She "hates" me so much. Ha. Notice the quotation marks. She doesn't know it yet, but she loves me.
"Yo, turtle!" I yell.
She turns and immediately looks pissed because she knows she just answered to the name she also "hates".
"What, BENJAMIN?" she says. She knows I hate being called my full name.
"What kinda music do you like?" I ask, giving her a reason to come sit next to me.
Sure enough she stands up and walks over to me.
She's wearing black leggings and a bright pink flannel. Pink looks good on her. Then again everything does. She's so cute.
"You know what kind of music I like." she says, sitting down right next to me.
Then she takes my iPod out of my hand and starts going through the music.
"Damn." she says. "4,000 songs?"
"Haha, 32 gigs worth of music right there. Hey do you like Jimmy Eat World?" I say.
"Who doesn't?" she says, taking out her iPod and handing it to me.
"The Middle is like one of my anthems."
"Yea that's one of my favorite songs." I smile down at her.
She looks at me and shakes my arm when she finds Van Morrison in the Artists tab.
"What?" I laugh.
"This is like, MY SONG." she says, "Brown Eyed Girl."
Point Of View: Bébhinn.
He smiles at me. "You my brown eyed girl. Do you remember when we used sing; sha la la la la la la la la ladi da?..." he sings.
I realize my hand is still wrapped around his bicep and I'm smiling and immediately stop and pull my hand off of him.
"I love that song." I say & keep scrolling through the Artists tab.
Even though I hate Ben's guts, I can't help my stupid brain not to think that that was the cutest thing a boys ever done to me.
Ew.
