I'll Never Forget

Riptide's POV

It was boring. School was boring. Tsunami wasn't boring. She was her only thing that wasn't boring in school. They had become extremely close over the past two months (yes two months).

Sure, he had maybe one or two other friends, but Tsunami just seemed.....different.

She would be the light when all he saw was darkness. She would lift him up when he was down. She would-

He shook his head, trying to focus on the math test in front of him.

But who was he kidding?

He constantly checked the clock, just wanting class to end so that he could see Tsunami's lovely face.

And her lovely smile.

"Streams!"

Riptide jolted his head up and his eyes showed fear. Ms. Burn towered over him, staring intently.

"Yes?" He asked, innocently.

Ms. Burn glared at him before responding, "focus on you test, young man." She then proceeded to return to her desk and do who-knows-what on her computer.

Riptide quietly let out a breath he didn't know he was holding. He looked around the room, trying to focus by doing something distracting. (Does anybody else look around in the middle of a test or homework? Or just any kind of work you need answers to?)

Suddenly, the bell rang, snapping him back into reality. Ms. Burn shot him a disappointed look, then went to collect all the tests.

Riptide jogged out of the classroom, trying to spot a familiar blue haired girl with a ponytail.

Tsunami locked eyes with him after a few seconds. She waved and Riptdie felt his heard flutter.

Too good for me.

Tsunami shot him a small smile, jogged towards him and said, "Wanna sit with us at lu-"

"I need to tell you something!" Riptide immediately covered his moth with his hands and widened his eyes.

Tsunami gave him a skeptical look. "Uh," she said. "Aren't you already telling me something right now?"

Riptide smiled and shook his head. "After school, at the back, please?" He pleaded.

Tsunami thought for a moment before nodding. Riptide flashed her one last smile then disappeared into the sea of students.

Wait...did he just.....sh**

"Okay Riptide! I'm here!"

Riptide jumped at the voice. He was not ready.

He waved Tsunami over and the girl happily walked over to the bench he was sitting at.

"So, what's up? And I swear if you want me to help you with homework," she warned.

Riptide looked at her and blushed.

"Ah, no," he looked at his shoes. "Um....I-....I uh"

Tsunami looked at him expectantly and Riptide panicked more.

"I...I really really really really really really like you?" He said, but it sounded like a question more than a statement. "Like, I like-love you? As in like I think about you all the time and I think about what you would want me to do, like "Would Tsunami approve of this?" Or "What would Tsunami want me to do?" And I just really really like you and oh gosh I'm rambling I'm sorry!!"

Tsunami laughed. She placed her hand on Riptide's, making them both blush.

"I uh-I like you too," she said.

Riptide smiled and leaned in to her.

Holy waves was he ready?

He saw Tsunami close her eyes and lean in too....

Then....

"WHAT ARE YOU TWO KIDS DOING HERE THE SCHOOL ENDED TEN MINUTES AGO!!"

Heh, sorry, just needed a chapter cause I'm working on another one :/ Anyways, enjoy your ship!
