557 Words
Blake's POV:
"Ouuu! You like her!" Joshua and Don said to me.
"Yeah, so?"
"You're falling in love with her?" Joshua asked.
"Pshhh, no. You know Blake, he doesn't fall in love that quick. Like, come on, he just met the girl, he can't fall in love with her that quick, dude," Don said.
"Eh, I don't know," I responded.
"Invite her to our party, bro," Joshua said.
"We're throwing a party?" I ask.
"Yeah, dude, invite her."
Avery's POV:
"How are you and Austin?" I ask Juliet.
"We're doing fine, and stop trying to change the subject, A," she replied.
The doorbell rangs. I went to go get it. I opened the door and saw that it was Blake.
"Hey," he first spoked.
"Hi," I said.
"Uh, can I come inside?" he asked me.
"Oh, yeah. Sure."
He came inside and I closed the door.
"Well, I'm just gonna go... You two have fun," Juliet said while walking towards the door. She left to go to Austin's house, I'm assuming.
"Sorry that I came here unexpected..." Blake said.
"Like you ever call me," I said to him.
"Well, this is the perfect oppurtunity."
"What?"
"Give me your phone."
"Why?" I asked him.
"Just give it to me," he said while putting his hand out.
I grabbed my phone from the counter and gave it to him. He was typing and clicking stuff. His phone rangs.
He handed my phone back to me and said, "Now I can contact you."
"Okay, so what are you doing here?"
"Oh, I'm here to invite you to my party," he told me.
"Party?"
"Yeah, party. You should come."
"You know I can't do parties, and I don't even like to party. I'm 18. I don't want to drink and get drunk again, Blake... and we're underage!" I told him.
"Hey, I'm 19 and we're partying, Avery. Who cares if we're underage."
"I do!"
"Please, for me?"
"Ugh, fine..."
He came closer to me and said, "Thank you." Then he sat down on the couch. I sat down on the couch too.
"Well...?" I said.
He turned to me and I turned to him and we both spoked, "Look-"
"You speak first," he said to me.
"No, you,"
He took my hand and said, "I'm not here to just tell you about the party, Avery..."
"Oh..." I said moving my hand from his hand.
"Sorry," he said taking his hand away from mines. I put my hand on my lap.
"It's fine.." I said nervously.
"But... I really like you."
I turned the other way and turned back to him and said, "You do?"
"Yeah, I do, Avery. I really like you."
"Oh, um.. I don't.. do-"
"Come on, I know you feel the same way."
"Nahhh..." I lied.
He scooted closer to me and said, "Do you want to be my girlfriend?"
"What?"
"Do you? Do you want to be my girlfriend?"
Did he really just asked me if I wanted to be his girlfriend?
"Uh..." I said looking at his dark brown sparkly eyes.
He looked away and said, "It's okay if you don't want to.."
"No! I mean... yeah, sure. I'll be your girlfriend."
"You will?" he said while turning back to me.
He leaned closer to me and I leaned closer to him and our lips touched.
