Finding Myself

Chapter 3

*Flashback*

    I'm waiting outside of the school for my boyfriend.  School is about to start in about 15 minutes, but he had told me that he wanted to see me before class starts.  I smile to myself just thinking about him.  We've been together since 8th grade, but not many people know.  People in school, besides my best friends, don't know anything.  He is like one of the school jocks while I am a nerd.  At first, all the secret meetings around school was fine because I do miss him, but now it is getting annoying.

    I felt hands going onto my eyes and being pushed into a direction.  When the hands move from my eyes, I didn't have time to open them before lips are pressed onto mine.  I knew exactly who it is since I've spent 3 years with them.

    I pulled back from his lips and put our foreheads together.  He wraps his arms around my waist and puts his head into my neck.  These moments are my favorite because he is only with way with me.

    "I am sorry that I'm late, Boobear.  The guys wanted to talk about the upcoming game before school.  I lied to them and said that I had to meet with the principal before the bell rings.  Man, your hugs and lips can cure depression," he says as he hugs me tighter.  I giggle from his words, causing him to look up at me.  "And your laugh brightens my whole day."

    "It's okay my jockie.  Boobear is here to keep you away from those annoying teem mates," I laugh to myself as I feel him chuckle.  We pull away from each other.

    Finally looking around, I see that we are at the side of the school, away from everyone so no one would be able to see us.  I hold back my sad sigh so that way my jockie won't notice.

    "Boobear.  I know that our meetings are getting to you because they are bothering me.  We've known each other since we were in diapers, so I know you the best," I snicker at him before he continues.  "Don't laugh cuz it's true.  I just worry about Jenny.  She'll find any excuse to bother you just because we are close and that I've rejected her advantages many times.  But soon, the school year will end and everyone will know that my beautiful queen is finally by my side to them, no matter what."

    "Beautiful Queen?  I've never seen her before.  You'll have to introduce her to me soon or else I'll be upset."  I smirk when he pouts.  He grabs both of my hands and gives me his puppy eyes.

    "You know that you are my queen Boobear.  And I'm your king, so you can't get rid of me.  Unless..." he begins to "choke" and puts his hand on his chest.  "Your delicious lips and presence is causing a horrible reaction to my heart and body.  I think I might die without a taste of them.  Please Boobear, you have to give me the dosage or your king will be no more."  To add more to his performance, he fells to his knees and grabs the ground, as in trying to stable himself.

    My jockie has always acted like this since we were kids, even more dramatic since we got together as a couple.  I roll my eyes at him, but quickly get into character before we both are late for our day of classes.

    "Oh nooo.  My king is suffering and only I have the power in order to save him and the land.  However," I say as I slowly walk away from him a bit while tapping my chin.  "it would be completely wrong of me since I'm not licensed for saving a life.  If I were to kiss you now, there is no guarantee that it will save both the king and the land may shun me forever.  I am not sure if that is a risk that I can take."

    "BOOOBEAARRR," he whines.  "If you save me, I'll make sure that my queen gets her candy before the end of the day."  At the mention of the key to my heart, I turn back to face him.

    "Now you are speaking my language jockie.  I mean, my king.  Risking my position, I'll give you a kiss to save you from death."

    I bend down to him and peck his lips.  He gets back up and pulls me back into a passionate kiss.  It felt so good that I wouldn't mind being stuck onto his lips for the rest of my life.  As long as the universe allows me to.

    So lost in our world, neither of us noticed a presence near us, until we heard a smack sound against the school wall.  We both jumped apart from each other, being caught in the act.  I breathed a sigh of relief when I see that it is just Madison and Skylar.

    "You know Sky..."

    "Yeah Mads?"

    "I think we just ruined their little moment."

    "Really?  I didn't notice.  Besides them sucking each other's faces."  They looked at each other, then began to fake gagging.  I move to my man and hide my face into his chest.  He just laughs as I feel embarrassed.    

    "No need to be jealous of my queen ladies.  If I didn't know any better, I would think you were envious of our love story."  He sways us back and forth to over exaggerate his point.    

    "Well, if we weren't all friends since kindergarten, then I would have totally pulled "your queen" away from a very obvious crazed person," Madison looks at Sky to finish her sentence.

    "However, we must since the first class bell is about to ring any minute and the rule of high school will be activated.  So, come along princess."  Skylar and Madison hold their arms out for me to grab.  I have no idea why everyone I know is so dramatic.  I turn back to my jockie and give him a quick peck before walking towards the twins.  

    "You may take my queen for now, but I will reclaim her later after football practice," he tells the twins before turning his attention back to me.  "Do not forget about me too soon, my queen.  You know I will miss you every minute we are apart until we see each other again.  I love you Boobear."

    "I love you more my jockie," I say as I finally walk away with the twins.

    "Not possible.  Cuz I love you to the moon and back."  I turn to see him smile at me before watching him walk away.

    The school bell finally rings and we rush inside before we are late.

*Flashback ends*

    "Hey Berta, you watching?," Sky shakes me out of my thoughts.

    "Of course," I reply.  "Let's keep watching."
