She went straight home leaving Mark confused.She went in her bedroom and covered herself in the blanket, she threw it away at once and touched her heart.
Nessa....Its still racing non stop, what do i do? Am so...excited, extremely happy.I cant believe that he fell for me, yet i crushed on him since the first time i set my eyes on his handsome face.His voice was so calm and i loved listening to it.
As she was still talking to herself panting, Mark called her, her heart skipped again, she answered the call.
Nessa....Hi.
Mark....Vanessa, am sorry if i came on too strong and scared you.I just couldnt wait to tell you how I felt, it was burdening my heart to keep it inside.
Nessa....(He clearly wants me to die from heart attack).
Mark....Are you there Vanessa?
Nessa....Am sorry for running away....lets meet now.
Mark....Now?For real? Where?
Nessa....Ummm....anywhere you want.
Mark....Okay, i will waiting for you in the alley.
Nessa....See you there then.
She went to Martha's room who was at work, she took her makeup and applied it on her face.
Nessa....Why am i....doing this? Just to see him? I've never wanted to look pretty before, i never even cared about how i look, but for him, i want to.
Mark drove his car faster and waited for her since he didnt want to go near their house.Vanessa walked and found him waiting for her, she was nervous and didnt dare look in his face.
Nessa....Hi.
Mark....You look....prettier.
Nessa....(He just complimented me, so this is why girls try hard to look pretty for their boyfriends, because it feels so special to be complimented.) Thanks.
Mark....Shall we?
Nessa....Sure, but, where are we going?
Mark....To talk peacefully.
He took her to a restaurant but no one was there, expect for the waiters.
Nessa....Did they just open now? Where are people?
Mark....Like i said, no one should bother us as we talk, i booked the whole restaurant for us two.
Nessa....Are you...serious? So, no one else is coming here?
Mark....No one, just us.
Nessa....Didnt this cost you?
Mark....Not at all.
Nessa....You must be loaded to do this, i mean, this is a five star restaurant, its not for everyone.
Mark....It doesnt matter to me.Vanessa, i like...
Nessa....Me too.
Mark....Huh?
Nessa....I...like you...too...excuse me.
She ran to the washroom panting.
Nessa....What did i say? I like him? I really do...but its...embarrassing to say to him, i feel super shy.
Mark....Please dont!
Nessa....Mark?? Sorry....i have to go....
Mark had followed her to the washroom, as she was trying to escape from him again, he held her hand and kissed her lips gently, her eyes widen because it was her first real kiss from the guy she sincerely liked.
He didnt stop, he kept kissing her, she slowly closed her eyes and he held her face kissing her harder, he stopped and looked in her eyes, she looked away blushing in shyness.
Mark....Look at me please! This is the first I've kissed someone this real and hard.
Nessa....What about...
Mark....Dont talk about her please, its just us here.Have you ever...kissed a guy before?
Nessa....No...yes...
Mark....Who?
Nessa....It was Trenk when we were still very young...but it didnt count because....
Mark....Sshh...so you know him from childhood?
Nessa....I do.
Mark....I dont care, i just hope that it wont happen again Vanessa because am crazy about you.
Nessa....(I feel good hearing him say these words, its like I've been waiting and longing to hear them from him.He really is my heart racer, i cant believe that this hot guy really likes me, am over moon).
He leaned his face on hers and she closed her eyes, he smiled and kissed her again, both their hearts were racing happily.After, they left the restaurant walking on the streets holding hands.
Mark....I cant believe that we just left without eating anything.
Nessa....Tell me about it, we are so dumb.
Mark....I know, right?
Nessa....Right!
Mark....Vanessa, can you please think it through? I want us to date, to be a real couple.
Nessa....I think...
Mark....Please, i just....wanna be yours.
Nessa....(Why does he keep being so straight? I've never seen him this serious yet his eyes and facial expressions says it all.He really likes me). I will...think about it then.
Mark....Am relieved, just please dont make me wait, am impatient and i dont know why am like this.But am certain of one thing, its love, the feelings i have for you.
Nessa....(Oh dear! His gonna break my heart if he keeps saying those words).
Mark....Lets not go home yet, its still 8pm.How about...we go and watch a football match?
Nessa....Oh shit! I almost forgot that RealMadrid had a match with Arsenal.Thanks for reminding me, but i always watch it on my phone.
Mark....Dont you have a p.c?
Nessa...Its broken, i dont wanna tell mum yet she just got it for me.
Mark....I see, i know a place where we can watch the match with people like us.Lets go.
They went to a bar where many people were watching the match, it had already started, they sat down.
Nessa....You were right, these people are like us.
Mark....What would you like to drink?
Nessa....Just soda.
Mark....I got you, wait here.
As he went to bring her soda, a guy sat next to her.
Man....Which team do you support?
Nessa....Arsenal.
Man....Me too! Looks like we are gonna win this one, can i have your number?
Mark....No! She is with me, lets go Vanessa.
He held her hand and they went outside.
Mark....Sorry, i never shouldve brought you in such a place for drunkards.
Nessa....Its okay, i didnt mind at all.
Mark....But i do, lets watch it in my car, it will be quiet and peaceful, no one will bother us.
Nessa....If you say so.
They walked back to the restaurant where he left his car, he drove to a quiet place and they watched the football game in his car, but his focus was on Vanessa.
Nessa....Come on....faster....go...go...go...GOALLLLLL!!!! YES! We won, our team is always winning, am so lucky to support it.What team do you support?
Mark....Huh? Me? I...support....Manchester united.
Nessa....I see, no wonder why you were not focused.
Mark....Its because i was focused on your face....how can you look like Rihanna? Your so pretty Vanessa.
She started blushing.
Nessa....Tha...thanks.(Is he going to kiss me again? Being in his car like this yet we are this close? What are the chances of him kissing me again? I cant believe that i want him to kiss me all the time, am so into him).
