Peter Ballard×fem!reader
You're both seniors in highschool

Y/n's pov:

I'm so stupid. I'm so, so very stupid!

How on earth did I develop feelings for Peter Ballard?

This makes absolutely zero sense! I had everything set up, I was going to date someone super attractive, not too popular but also not a total weirdo, and NOT get crushes. People are supposed to gawk at me, not the other way around

The only think Peter fits on that qualification is that he's attractive. Other than that he's a total loser and I'm fawning over him. This is hopeless

I've only talked to him a couple times, he's in the chess club, and is fascinated by the human brain, he never stops talking about it. It's kinda cute...

But enough about him, I have to meet my best friend Chrissy for lunch

I know she's kinda popular but she still hangs out with me, we've been friends since kindergarten and she's stuck with me forever!

While I'm scoping out the cafeteria looking for her I lock eyes with Peter. He waves his hand for me to come over and my face turns bright red, I think I look like a tomato

I awkwardly walk over to his table and sit down

I have to text Chrissy and tell her I'm ditching her... She can just eat with her boyfriend anyway though

"Hey!" Peter greets me

"Hi" I wave shyly

Oh my gosh I probably look so dumb right now!! He hates me, this is so embarassing

I try to turn off my brain but that isn't working, I'm panicking and I hate it, why do I feel this way when I'm around him?

He's not even that hot

I'm too wrapped up in my thoughts that I didn't even realize he was talking to me, something about his latest chess match

"And then I looked to Martin and made my final move, said 'checkmate' and I won the game! You should have seen his face! It. Was. Priceless" he giggled about his victory for a couple minutes before asking me about my day

I told him about band practice, the math test I flunked, aaand that's about it! I am not a very interesting person, Peter is so interesting! He always has something to talk about. I wonder why he's even friends with me?

It's silly really, that I'm upset about being friends with my crush, I still hate that he's my crush. But alot of people don't even get the chance to talk to their crush before they move on

That's why today I've decided that I'm telling Peter how I feel, I got a sudden burst of confidence this morning and if I don't go for it today I'll never have a chance again..

"Hey Peter... Can you meet me after school today? At the park behind the forest?" I ask nervously

He gets really excited and instantly replies "yes of course! Why?, If you don't mind me asking"

"Oh um, it's a surprise!" I do jazz hands when I say surprise, this makes him laugh, it also makes me happy that he thinks I'm funny

I don't know why his opinion matters so much to me

Time skip to after school

I've been sitting here at the park waiting for peter to show up for the last 10 minutes, and I'm starting to think he got scared off and ghosted me

I sigh and kick around the dirt and rocks near the slide, this park has definitely seen better days...

Just as I'd lost all hope I looked to my right and saw Peter emerge from an expensive looking black car

He must have rich parents

I think to myself

"So y/n, why'd you invite me here all alone?" He inquires, inching closer to me

"Um, I needed to talk to you. Alone, and this was the only place I knew about" I respond, looking at my feet the whole time to avoid eye contact

Man I must look like such a freak right now

"May I ask what you needed to talk to me about that was so important you felt the need to call me out into a dark secluded park after school?" He asks, a breathy laugh escaping near the end

"Well, peter I don't know how else to say this but, I like you... I really really like you, and I know that sounds stupid because we've only known eachother for a few mon-"

Just as I start rambling he cuts me off by connecting his lips to mine

At first I was shocked, I couldn't believe that he did that, then I melted into the kiss

His lips danced on mine, giving me butterflies everytime we broke apart

This kiss was not lustful, or filled with any malious intent, this kiss was just pure love and affection, it was filled with passion and playfulness

It almost seemed like this was new to him, but his curiosity drove his passion, that was what made this kiss so exhilarating, so when we broke away I felt a little empty

"Sorry, you were talking too much, I feel the same way, if that didn't prove it to you" he smiled warmly and gave me a hug before exchanging numbers with me, and driving back home

This one was a bit shorter than last time but I still think it's good :)
