First thank you to all the people that have e-mail me, you can continue e-mailing me to historias46@hotmail.com .Please send me your opinion cause I need to know what's wrong with the story so that I can make it better. But enough talking, here it is chapter 3, and I think that you'll like it.. Pumpkin 3 This party was a blast. Since everyone knew about Mike and Gill, they could dance all that they wanted, and they were loving it. Besides that, I was loving being dancing all that I wanted. But I needed to take a little rest, so I sated next to Brian - So, everything is ok? - I asked him drinking a little bit of whatever was on my glass - Yeah- he said not convincing me I looked at him waiting to hear what was bothering him" What's wrong?" He looked at me and then at the crowd, I noticed that he was following Lara, it couldn't be" Brian, are you...I mean...huh...is Lara...?" He looked at me quickly" How did you found out? Who told you?" "Relax; since you were looking at Lara, I thought that ..." "I like her, but I just don't have the courage to..." He said blushing Ok, tomorrow was going to be Valentine's days, so I decided to let my Cupid side take over me, I got up, grabbed Brian, took him near Lara, and putted him face to face to her, then I went to the stereo and putted some ballad. Everyone grabbed someone and they started dancing, Lara looked at me and I just nodded and pointed at Brian, she smiled back, grabbed him and they started dancing. But now I was all alone, Mike and Gill were dancing, Sara was "dancing" with Kat, Susy was dancing with David, and Kimb was nowhere to be seen...I guess I had to be alone...again...suddenly I felt a pair of arms come around me -Aren't you going to dance? - a voice asked me - No, Pete, I don't have no one to dance- I said turning around and staying face to face to him We were really close, and Pete was smiling like a fool" Do you want to dance?" he asked smiling I don't know if it was me, if it was party me, or if it any other me that answered " Sure..." He seemed surprised, he shouldn't be waiting for that answer, but he recovered pretty quickly and he dragged me to the centre of the dance floor. Now, I was expecting him to just stay in front of me and dance, I mean no grabbing and all those things... but Pete had this amazing capacity to surprise me, so he pulled me towards him, putted his arms around my waist and started dancing... I was a little stunned for all this, but hey, I was in my house with all my friends, so who cares?... I putted my arms around his neck and we started dancing I guess that I was enjoying this dancing a little to much, after a little while I putted my head on his shoulder. I don't know why but being like this seemed so right, I was liking being like this, I felt secure being like this, suddenly Sara's words came to my mind" Some times you are so stubborn that you stay blind to what is around you..."What did she meant with all that? Did she mean that I liked Pete? Or did she mean that Pete liked me? No way, Pete couldn't like me, I mean he was always after some girls, and besides he was always annoying me with that pumpkin story ... But suddenly everything stooped and I returned to the real world, I opened my eyes to find Sara grinning at me, I released Pete and went to the food table to get something to drink, I grabbed a glass with juice and went outside to get some fresh air. I went to my garden and sated in the base of a tree, I drank a little of juice and looked at the stars and started thinking. What was I feeling? Could I like Pete? How? I mean he is always bothering me, but he is kind of cute. No, I don't know how I fell... God, I am so confused... "Hey..." I heard a voice come from behind me "Hey Sara, shouldn't you be dancing?" I asked without taking my eyes from the starts "I should, but I think that helping a friend comes before the dancing stuff!" she said sitting next to me" Tonight it's a beautiful sky isn't it? "Yeah..." "Mike, did you like dancing with Pete?" I didn't answered first, I looked at her and just nodded "I knew it, you're head over heals..." "I don't know Sara, I'm so confused, I mean he is always bothering me, and I..." "You what?" "I fell strange around him" I said looking right at her" I fell nervous, my stomach fells strange, it just seems like I'm going to explode when I'm around him..." She smiled and then started laughing, I looked at her" I'm glad my problems make you laugh..." "I'm laughing cause that's what love does...all those sensations, that stomach stuff, that's all love's doing..."she said smiling" Mike, I wanted to tell you this for a long time: You...are ... In...love...with ...Pete, every time he enters the room your eyes start shining, and you are always looking at him. Remember that chemistry test? "I nodded" Well, when I finished I looked at you and you were looking right at him. You are soooooo in love." I though for a while, she probably was right, I mean all that stomach stuff and probably that eyes stuff, and the staring stuff, Yeahp she was right AGAIN, I smiled at her" Why are you always right?" "Because I'm a woman..." She said smiling" Now, I want to hear you say it." "What?" "I want to hear you say that you like Pete" "I like Pete" I said in a whisper "Louder" She screamed "Okay, I like Pete" I said normally, she looked at me with those eyes" I LIKE PETE" Suddenly she grinned and Pete appeared behind her, my heart almost stopped, and Pete was grinning, Sara got up "Now you two stay alone, because I have to go...oh, and please be quick" Pete sated next to me and we stayed in an awkward silent until he started talking" So... what you said to Sara...is it...hum...true?" I blushed, and looked down" Yeah" I was really embarrassed, and the next thing that happened totally blew me away. Pete grabbed my face and kissed me with all that he had. When he stooped I opened my eyes totally confused "SO?"Pete asked smiling "So, what?" I asked confused "Did you like it?" "I loved it" I said smiling, and then I grabbed his face and kissed with all that I had. "Does this means that we are a couple now?" Pete asked almost jumping I nodded, I looked at my clock and it was past midnight" Hey, we started dating on Valentine's Day..." "Great, that means that tomorrow, or should I say today, is all to us" he said after a kiss" Now let's dance..." ... Now this party was really great, when me and Pete arrived from our little trip to the garden everyone was waiting for us, and when they saw us holding us they jumped from their sits and hugged us, then everyone started dancing and having a blast, I didn't let go of Pete for the entire night, and we danced until we couldn't stand up. But unfortunately everything that is good comes to an end, so it was 1.00am and I had to end the party. Susy climbed up a table and shouted for everyone's attention "Guys, I'm sorry but this party is almost over" Everyone started uuuing" I said almost, there is one last music, so grab your date cause here comes the last ballad." A ballad started and I grabbed Pete, and we started dancing, this time it was different from the last times, cause we kissed each 2 seconds. So, the party ended most of the guys and girls went home, leaving me Kat, Pete, Gill, Mike, Susy and Lara alone in my house. - Mike and Gill you'll sleep in my parent's room, Kat and Susy you'll sleep on the couch, and Lara could I ask you a favor? - I said blushing She grinned" Of course Pete can sleep with you, I don't mind..." Me and Pete blushed really bad" Goodnight everyone, tomorrow we'll have to clean everything..." Everyone said their goodnights and went to their respective rooms ... "Mike now they will probably think that we will wild monkey sex..."Pete said striping up "And we aren't" I asked with my most surprised face, Pete almost felt to the ground" I'm just kidding, I'm just dating you for 2 hours..." He just nodded and continued striping. I couldn't stoop my eyes, he was bigger than me and he was really cute, and I just wanted to kiss him so bad for seeing him in only his boxers "What are you looking at?" He asked "Pumpkin?" I just groaned" Why did you call me that? I mean since the beginning of this year that you've been calling me that ..." "Well, I started liking you since the beginning of this year so I just wanted to call you that..." he said lying down on the bed "You told Sara didn't you?"I asked lying down next to him "Yeah, I told her at the school's party..."he said" But now I'm tired and I want to sleep, goodnight pumpkin!" he said while he putted an arm around me "Goodnight tiger!" I said He pulled me towards him, and I fell asleep with me head on his chest. ... TBC...
