I am Sherman. Today is a very important day for me and Lance , my boyfriend.... It's our 3rd anniversary. Time passes so quickly and it feels like it was just yesterday when I fell in love with him....
At that time i hated school , too much like every other teenager. I mean that's obvious isn't it? It's normal to hate school and who doesn't anyway.... that one can't be normal and yup I was right...
When I met him...he was under the tree enjoying the cool breeze and reading a book...whose name I probably don't know.. he was just so into the book and I...was just sooo into watching him. His long hair covering his brown eyes...Man!! I couldn't keep my eyes off him. And he loved school... like good in studies also. He definitely isn't normal as I said. He is just special, extra special...no no...he is...just ahhh just so so damn great.
I was walking down the stairs and suddenly bumped into someone...oww who the hell is so blind? I somehow balanced myself and looked up to just shout at that person..
Then I saw Lance standing in front of me....It's him, it's him!!!!
" Hi La-" Before I could say his name..my leg slipped and I lost my balance and was about to fall . Then I felt a hand catch me by my waist as I held it's shoulders.
"Are you okay?" Lance asked me .....I am gonna faint by his voice...
"Are you okay??" He repeated again!
"Huh?...uh...yeah yeah i-i am fine" Great !!! Just great...first time talking to him and I am stuttering... hah!
"Should I carry you?"
"No..I can walk"
"Good" He smiled....
He smiled , he smiled!!! Calm down....calm down
"Hey! Don't be nervous"
"What? I am not nervous"
He nodded and left....Oh my god!!!! I love this school!! Who will hate the school where Lance studies? Nope I won't!!!!!!!!!
Day by day I fell for him even harder....and it feels good....I am in heaven.
You know today he talked to me!!! He talked to me...I mean he just said Good morning but he talked!!!!!
As I was happily walking , I again bumped into someone.. is it Lance? I looked up with hope but found Jeff...school's most irritating person tsk!!! Boy! I am in trouble
"Watch where you're going!" He shouted
"Sorry" I said and tried to walk away bit he grabbed my arm
"Wait you little piece of shit"
"Now now" I heard someone saying as he gently pushed Jeff away from me..
"Don't trouble my friend" Lance said
"Your friend?"
"Yes...so now will you excuse us"
"Okay" Jeff glared at me at went away
"Thanks" I said
"No problem"
"But are we friends?" I asked
"Are we not???"
"I..mean we ....we are if you want"
"Hmmm....then we are!" He said as he extended his hands....I stared at at for a moment and held it
"Nice"
"Ok bye Sherman" He waved away
"Bye Lance ." Wait he knows my name?????? How?????
Shiiitttt....I am acting like a girl....awww...love is what me this!
Days passes and we started talking casually... like we are best friends...maybe we are! He looks comfortable around me and I am glad about it cause i am so nervous around him..
Today was a bit different than usual...it was unexpecting!!!
I was sitting at Lance's house on his sofa..
He came back from the kitchen with a glass of juice...He was about to give it to me but then it slipped out o his hand and fell on my pants and a little bit on my shirt...Messy ewww
"Sorry" He said as he picked up a tissue in his hand.
"Its ok..it happens" I tried to convince him but he insisted...and I couldn't refuse.. He started wiping my shirt and then my pants and while wiping it he accidentally touched....touched.. my my...you know the thing boys have..private...aaaaaaaaa someone help me
I shivered a bit and he gulped...
Oh noooo....He put the tissue down and moved towards me and I pushed myself back in the sofa...He was completely above me...
Kill me!!!!
"Sherman" He whispered.... and I closed my eyes tightly..
He leaned in closer as I felt his breath and lips on me..I froze...
"L-Lance" I called and he quickly pulled away as he realised what he did!
"I-I...Sherman sorry" He said looking guilty
I , without any thought , ran away from the house!!! He kissed me , Lance kissed me....Does he like me??? Was he joking?? Was he serious??? Omggg....my face is burning and I kept running.... Stupid Sherman...what would he think??? You just ran without saying anything!! Stupid!!
.
.
It's been 3 days after the incident... or the awkward kiss....and I am literally ignoring me. The one who should be ignored is me....
Every time I ignore him , he has that sad , painful look on his face....Am I hurting him that much?? But how should I face him....
I was pulled out of my thoughts when someone pulled me in an empty classroom
"Who the-....Lance?" I said shocked
"Yes.. "
"Why did you...bring me here?"
"That....I wanted to talk to you.." He said scratching the back of his neck..
"I..I got something to do..later" I said trying to get away
"Wait.." He grabbed my arm "Please!"
Now I have to stop!
"Yes!"
"It is about that...kiss"
"Uh..uh...yeah"
"Okay so...I know you were shocked and still feel awkward or..disgusted maybe so-"
"No...." I cut him off "I didn't feel disgusted " I confirmed
"Oh!"
"Now you can continue"
"Umm...I ....just ...okay it wasn't a joke or I wasn't playing with you..I did it cause I wanted do...but your reaction scared me...I kissed you..because I couldn't hide it. I know it's very weird that I am saying that...and you definitely didn't expect it...but I ...like you"
"What??"
He likes me?? Am I hallucinating? Am I hearing things??? Huhhhhhhh
"Sherman!"
"Huh?"
"It's true... I like you.."
"But...how ?? Why?"
"That day when i was sitting under the tree . I saw you staring at me...that was kind of cute..your smile ...and when I caught you at the stairs...your reaction was fun to watch...But gradually I got close to you ...I found you cute, lovely and attracted... I was so confused what it was ....that day when I was wiping your pants ...my body just reacted.. I thought about it for days...I realised I like you..but I was afraid you hated me..so I wanted to confirm everything today. Please...tell me" He said his eyes begging me to speak
"I....don't hate you Lance...anything but hate..No...but i was a bit surprised.. that you kissed me and now you like me ...I mean ....just too much to take in" He likes me....yessss I am the luckiestttt!!!!!
"That's good to know" He said walking towards me . He pulled me by my waist and put his lips on me...this time also I didn't move....
Lance pulled away with disappointment... Sherman! Now or never!!!
I grabbed Lance's hair and kissed him...He without any thought kissed me back ..I put NY hands around his neck and got lost in the kiss...
Then we separated....
"Sherman......" It was his time to be surprised
"I like you too....from the first moment i saw you" I said and he hugged me...Finally!!
What a wonderful day it was!!!
That time we both were immature... but now look at us..
This is us now! More mature, more loving and each other's world..
"Baby!" Lance called me..
"Coming!!"
We did the decorations...and brought the cake
and light up the candles...
"Shall we?"
"Yes!" I said smiling
We blew the candles and cut the cake..
"Can't believe it's been 3 years?" I said
"Yeah...but we are together"
"Yuppp"
"Sherman!"
"Hmm"
"I love you"
I paused for a moment, then smiled..
"I love you too"
Then we kissed.
The End.
Guys! My first short story...thanks for reading this....Take care and be happy and love whoever you want 💜
Bye...
