chapter nine , kiss me like you mean it
WE SAY WERE FRIENDS, BUT IM CATCHING YOU ACROSS THE ROOM
THAT WAY, TATE MCRAE

the whole world was spinning. my head was pounding. i regretted everything last night. is this the end? am i dying? oh my gosh, i think im seeing the light.

nope, josh just opened the blinds. and that head pounding and world spinning, is hangover.

i groaned, turning over so i couldn't see heaven. aka, the sun beaming through the window.

josh came over and sat down moving my legs, then putting them on top of his lap so he could sit down. "you didn't drink the water and didn't take the medicine. real smart sab." i heard him say.

i ran my hands through my hair and turned over. "i'll take it now," i rubbed my head. "jeez, i can't remember anything that happened last night." that was a lie. i remember that i kissed him, and everything else.

"you were knocked out cold last night when i came out of my room." he said, tapping the remote waiting for the tv to load.

i took the advil and water and took the medicine and drank the water. "what happened last night?" i asked him, i wanted to see what he said.

he hesitated, "well. you came to my house last night super drunk. other then that you just sat on the couch. oh! and you kissed me last night." he said. i don't think he was happy about the kiss. but why? he's been sending me so many signals?

people assume that we're more then friends by the way that he looks at me, how i look at him, and how we act around each other. but no, just best friends.

it breaks my heart knowing that i may never be able to be with him. i think he's around me a lot just to get me attached to him. he says we are never going to happen, what does he mean by that?

all i know, is that friends don't look at friends that way.

"did you kiss me back?" i asked.

"i pulled you off of me, i don't want to take advantage of me. but it sucks. because," he took a deep breath, "i would kiss you. just not when you don't know what your doing." he admitted.

i was surprised, i don't know why. i sat up next to him, and moved closer.

i looked him, and he eventually turned his head to me. our faces moved closer to each other. we were a centimeter away from each others face.

"can i kiss you?" he asked putting his hand in my check. i smiled and nodded. our lips got closer by the second and finally, our lips met. they moved together in sync, both of us smiling during it.

we pulled away, his hand still on my cheek. we just looked at each other. it wasn't an awkward silence. it was a comfortable silence.

his mouth opened and he was about to say something until we heard knocking at the door.

he groaned and got up. opening the door, it revealed jack and amelia. "hey guys!" amelia said jumping onto the couch. jack ran over to sit next to amelia.

"make yourself at home..." josh said under his breath, walking back over to the couch. josh sat down next to me, we both smiled at each other.

"ooh, what happened here?" amelia said in my ear. i turned around to face her, "nothing, why?"

"it seems like there's some tension." amelia said getting closer to my face.

i got closer too, "no. there isn't!" i whispered in her face, then backing away. i took the remote from josh and looked for a show to watch.

"you guys should have seen sabrina's mom last night. she went to the bar with sabrina and she looked so hot, it was insane." amelia laughed.

we all talked for a while, but all that was in me and joshs mind was what the hell happened. what would have happened if they didn't open the door? all i know is that im happy that it happened.

when we were all talking, josh would randomly check me out or look at me and smile. i think im really crushing on him. what did i get myself into?
