The Boy With Green Eyes

Twenty Six

After Nora and Travis left is was silent. Alex nor I spoke I did not know what to say. I was also embarrassed that on my first kiss I got caught uhhhhhhhh how embarrassing. Waite does the kiss means that Alex likes me back? But he did not tell me anything. Should I ask him what does the kiss means to him? No bad idea. But then how will I come to know now? I hope Nora and Travis did not tell anyone. I do not think they told mom because if they did then mom would come in my room till now so I am sure they did not tell mom. But what if they told the girls ahhhhhh if Emma know she is a drama queen she will make it a very big issue and Mia oh god she is worst she might announce it in the school on the mic ahhh why do I know these people ahhhhhhhhh.

Alex : you are fine?
Me : huh?
Alex : you were thinking about
           something?
Me : no...nothing.
Alex : ok.
Me : yeah....
Alex : so I guess we got permission
           from your sis and her boyfriend.
Me : what?
Alex : *laughing* you are so cute
            when you are embarrassed.
Me : uhhhhhh.
Alex : what is wrong?
Me : ahhhhh.... Do you..... Mean.... I
         mean.....
Alex : Belle you can tell me anything.
Me : do you like me?
Alex : of course.
Me : *smiles*
Alex : you thought I would not like
           you?
Me : yes *nodding head* I thought you
         were already dating that girl but
         I did not know she would come
         out your cousin.
Alex : she had came with her mom so
           she came to school I thought
           you and her will get along
           together.
Me : sorry I had walked away that day
         and kept ignoring you.
Alex : no it is fine I was a
           misunderstanding.
Me : one second does the football
         team know that she is your
         cousin?
Alex : yes they do.
Me : Josh knew?
Alex : yes.
Me : no wonder he was so sure of
         what he was saying.
Alex : everything is fine right?
Me : yeah everything is fine.

*Knock knock*

Me : who is it?
Mom : it is me.
Me : yes mom coming.

I opened my room door and mom came in I guess she needs my help with something by the look on my mom's face I am guessing.

Me : yes mom?
Mom : are you both doing some work?
Me : no we finished.
Mom : ok so I will be needing your
             help afterwards.
Me : ok mom.
Mom : and Alex do not go home yet
             have food and go.
Alex : ok aunty I will.

* Mom leaves*

After mom left again there was silence in the room. I do not know what to do should I start the conversation or should I not? But if I start the conversation then what should I say? Ahhhhhh leave it I do not care I will start the conversation what ever has to happen let it happen.

Me : go to get fresh.
Alex : huh?
Me : I mean in some time the food will
        get ready so why not you freshing
        up?
Alex : yeah.
Me : the washroom is there.
Alex : thanks.
Me : welcome.

Alex went to the washroom I am so bad at starting conversations. Belle you are so bad you had a crush and thought he did not like you back and when he told you about his feelings and the misunderstanding got cleared you were babbling words and he kissed you, your first kiss and got caught by your sis and her boyfriend wow just wow you ran up the stairs to talk to him but did not have the brains to lock the door. I was so much in my thoughts that I did not realised Alex standing next to me.

Alex : what are you thinking?
Me : ahhhh.
Alex : calm down I did not mean to
            scared you.
Me : sorry.
Alex : you are not going to get fresh?
Me : ah yes I am. *Walking away*
Alex : Belle.
Me : yes?
Alex : do not stress a lot if you want to
            take it slow or do not want to be
            in a relationship now then I am
           fine with it.
Me : *smiles*
Alex : I will be down. *Smiles*
Me : yes.

I do not know how to express what I am feeling now. I mean I never thought that Alex would think like this he is so understandable. I walked to my cupboard and picked an orange long sleeves top with light blue jeans shorts I ties my hair into a lose pony and went downstairs. As I reach to the table I saw Alex eating he looked at me and smiled and I smiled back at him. Mom served me my food and was walking back to the kitchen but she stop mid-way and turned around and asked me.

Mom : Bella.
Me : yes?
Mom : do you know why Nora and
             Travis was laughing waile
             going out?
Me : why wo...would I know *slightly
         widering my eyes*
Mom : because I heard Travis saying
             leave them alone.
Me : I do not know * akaward smile*
Mom : ok *walks away*
Me : *sight*
Alex : *laughing*
Me : why are you laughing?
Alex : you look cute when you are  
           embarrassed. *Smile*
Me : (in mind) awwwww his smile is
         sooooo beautiful how can no one
         fall guys like him? Or is that I
         have no experience so I do not
         know😅.
Alex : I would say to click a pic of me
           so when ever you want to see
           me you can see the pic but
           instead of that I do not mind if
           you call and tell me you want to
           see me when ever you feel like.
          *Smrik*
Me : uhhhh..... What I was not looking
         at you.
Alex : ok as you say. *Smiling and
            turning to his food*
Me : I am saying the truth.
Alex : I believe you. *Looking at me *
