SHAYLA
It was a little flick in my heart seeing him on stage receiving his high school graduation diploma. I am genuinely happy for him but a little sad. My parents dropped me to our house because they have to work.
When I reached home in my room, I shrugged my shoulder. I am alone again in this room. For two years from now I am off to college too.
I sighed heavily. This is life. Not all the time everything is perfect. Not all the time everything is happy. This is my second sadness I felt for this school year.
I guess I have to learn to be more dependent to myself.
I fall asleep, thinking about stupid things in my brain. Shane and his batchmates were celebrating their graduation day. One of their schoolmates invited them all.
I got a message from Zander when they arrived. Of course, I replied him to have some fun.
I woke up from his call. I smirked, checking the clock. He never forgets me as always. I guess, he just let Shane to go away first before ditching the girl he pretended to be his hook up.
After the call from Zander, I smelled my hair and it is still smelling good. Since I was been lying in my bed from late afternoon till the night. I quickly took a bath without wetting my hair.
It was past 10 o clock in the evening. I did not expect that he will call for a strolling somewhere. The thought he will going to have some fun with his friends.
Since it will be their last party in high school but I am so happy that he will going to spend some time with me tonight. We really do not have time much with each other and I understand that totally.
Even if I am nervous to be with Zander right now. My heart is overly excited to where we will be going. I opened my closet, no time to think what to wear as soon as I fixed my eyes on it then that's it.
I wore a plain black stretch jegging, red plain med fitted shirt dress sleeve and sneakers. A little splashed of body mist and lip-gloss, messy bun and I am done.
I picked up my keys, phone with money inside the case and rushed off outside. I do not want to waste my time in here. I want to waste my time with him.
I saw Zander's car waiting for me inside the car. I quickly locked the door behind and walked towards his car. He was smiling at me as I opened the passenger's seat.
"Hi, I hope I am not that long." I grinned as I buckle up my seatbelt.
"No, you are just in time." He replied and helps me my seatbelt. He suddenly cupped my face and the kiss on my lips. It was not long but I felt it. It was sweet but different.
"Okay, let's go." He said as he started to turn his keys with a wide smile on his face. I shook my head of disbelief with what just happened.
"Where are we going?" I asked and looked at him.
"I will bring you somewhere just wait and see. I will not be going to spoil the moment okay so stop asking." He warned me and I sighed.
"Okay, whatever. I hope you will not murder me and dump my body that no one will know." I pouted my lips as I said that.
"Hahahah... very funny, sweet pea." He concentrates on driving while I peeked on him secretly. 'Gosh, I am going to miss him and I do not know when will us be seeing again.' I sighed heavily.
I looked ahead and notice the way we were going. I never been this place before but as we passed with some trees on the way was going up.
I glanced at his car clock and it was just an hour passed from our street then Zander stopped the car. My jaw dropped as I see the view. I unbuckled my seatbelt and did not wait for him to open my passenger's door.
I stood there mesmerized by the view. It was overlooking to the city with the cold air around. I turned head to found him beside me.
"Welcome to my secret place." he asked. "Do you like it?"
I nodded with a big smile on my face. "I just don't like it I really love it. Gosh, I did not know this place is existing, Thank you!" I said and hugged him.
My heart was beating abnormality. I heard him too as I leaned in to his chest. I do not want this to end. It was unforgettable for me, for us.
We stayed that position for a while. I think we both know what we feel at this moment. We just afraid to say or it was just me. I do not know I guess; it is not the right time for us to think over about relationship.
I pulled away first and smiled at him. "You wait here." He said as he went to turned off the head lights. It was not too dark at all.
I went back admiring the beautiful view of our town. I heard the car door shut closed. He got plenty in his hands when I turned around to find him holding blankets, basket and a pillow.
"Wow!" I said, giggling with things in his hands. "You really are not prepared." I teased.
He smiled back. "Well, I was planning this yesterday and I want it to be special for you and me. Can you help me spread this one blanket please, on the ground so that we can lay there and eat?" He asked me. I rushed to help him put it down on the ground.
I never imagine this to be special. I mean super effort coming from him. We never go out openly. We were always indoors spending each other's time.
Now, I must admit to myself I love him.
