I'm Gonna Break Down These Walls
Fool's Holiday
Mid-November. There should NOT be a foot of snow on the ground in November. No. However, snow was not the only thing on my mind. Thanksgiving was also in the back if my brain. I was dreading it.
Because I came from a relatively wealthy family, our dinner was fabulous. Every food you could imagine was piled high on the table. Like a buffet. I was not worried about thanksgiving dinner. I was worried about seeing my mother and sisters. They did not accept me as an individual, and would call me out on every single flaw.
I trudged over to geometry class with Jack and Alex on either side of me. We were talking about I-don't-know-what as we walked as all of the sudden Jack ran ahead into the classroom. I didn't realize why until I began to walk through the doorway with Alex.
"Ooh" said the entire class in unison. I realized something. There was a mistletoe hanging in the doorway. That bitch, I thought to myself, that geometry teaching bitch had the nerve to hang mistletoe when it wasn't even Christmas time yet.
"Um, it's not the Christmas season yet," I said sarcastically.
"I don't care," my teacher said. So, I didn't question it. I was about to complain more when I was shut up by something. That something was Alex's lips.
He kissed me. Right there in front of everyone. Just casually. Only for a few seconds, but that was enough. The butterflies in my stomach fluttered so much I feared that they would escape through my mouth.
Alex didn't say anything, he just sat at his desk and took out his homework. I did the same, though I was still freaking out. The boy of my dreams had kissed me.
I was sitting at lunch, when a new face at the lunch table appeared. It was Alex.
"Why the long face?" I asked him.
"JoAnn dumped me," he said in a melancholy tone.
"Oh shit," I replied.
"She said I was too willing to kiss you and that I should have resisted." He informed me.
"I'm sorry," I said.
"Don't blame yourself, I may have been a bit too eager." He admitted.
I blushed like a fool at this and I could tell he was blushing too. That one line kept running through my head.
"I may have been a bit too eager."
