The exams where over and I just had enough time for myself, watching movies and having fun, but I really felt something was missing.
I and Kris were only texting each other and he was still giving me butterflies.
Could this be love it crush?
I was so confused as I thought about him everyday, I even added a heart emoji to his name. (blushes)
Through texting, I found out he loved football and would be having some training with the some guys inside school. I was very happy because I'll get to be meeting him.
It was a Friday evening, I didn't even inform him I was coming, I bought coke on the way to cheer him up, I got to the field and stood there watching him, other people were watching too.
Maybe he felt my gaze or something but he looked up and our eyes met, he looked surprised, then smiled and waved at me before concentrating on the ball.
"Go Kris!", Someone shouted behind me and I looked up to see his roommate and his other friend.
"Hi Jay, came to watch the ball too?", I asked as they stood close to me.
" Yeah, Kris is really a good player...he's a mid fielder", he replied.
"I noticed...he was always with the ball", I added with my eyes unconsciously following Kris. I looked at him in admiration, I just loved everything about him..I mean he was my type of guy.
The match ended and his team won, he wasted a little time talking with his members and being cheered so I waited for him at a corner playing with my phone.
Suddenly I just felt a warm palm closing my eyes from behind. I smiled within me..cos I knew he was the one.
I raised my hand to touch his short dreads.
"Kris..", I said and he chuckled and withdrew his hands.
"That was so easy to guess", he said looking at me.
If not you who else is gonna try that with me?
"I like chocolate..", I said referring to his scent which he caught and smiled,
"This is for you", I said giving the coke I bought, he looked at me a bit surprised and smiled.
"You really didn't have to buy anything", he said.
" I already did, it's nothing", I said stuffing it into his palm and smiled back " for energy", I added.
"Thanks", he said looking into my eyes. I felt butterflies in my belly.
Fuck...what's this feeling?!
we started walking towards the school gate as his roommate and friend joined behind us.
" So....why did you come here?", He asked.
" I just..just wanted to know how good you are..in playing football", I replied. He looked at me.
"So...?", He asked looking very curious that made me laugh.
" You are good", I said but he didn't smile,
" Just good?", He asked and I noticed I said something wrong.
I looked at his face, he seem wronged.
" I mean...you played really well..I didn't know you can play very well and a mid fielder at that", I said quickly..he then smiled at me.
"I thought you didn't see my exceptional skills", he said jokingly making us laugh.
We got to the gate,my worst part..parting with him..I kinda wished I could follow him to his place.
"We are here, I'll go home to freshen up ... I'll text you later in the day", he said to me.
I nodded and acted a bit reluctant.
"When are you traveling?", he asked.
" Probably next week Tuesday", I replied,
"why do you ask?", I added.
"Uhm nothing..that's four days from today, I'm travelling next week Friday....maybe we can hang out before you travel", he said looking at me and that really gave me huge butterflies.
I nodded with a hint of smile on my face
" Not a bad idea", I replied.
" I'll text you when I get home then", he said,
" Alright", I replied.
I normally wait for him to make a move before I leave but he didn't seem to be moving so I looked at him.
"Give me a hug before you go", he said.
I was shocked for a moment cos that was the first time he asked me for a hug.
As I was hesitating, he quickly hugged me, waved at me and left.
No doubt I didn't recover from the shock til I went home.
I guess he really really likes me too!
