steps, I notice that Heiji's laughter has stopped, which calms me down a little.I see Kenji approaching me and therefore put on an evil look that makes him look puzzled.
"Uh, I was just about to come back. Is anything?"
I quickly come up with a plan and then look friendly again.
"Oh, you know, that was a very nice evening today.", I say take a step towards him, so that I almost touch the tip of his nose.
"Um ... nice that ... that .."
"And do you know what I'm wondering?" I continue in a somewhat seductive tone.
He just shakes his head excitedly. I turn away from him, glare angrily and scream:
"I wonder how much money you get for a slap in the face."
Startled, he takes 2 steps back and looks at me fearfully.
"What do you mean? I ... I don't know what you're talking about. I ..."
"Oh shut up. A guy like you can stay stolen from me. I was only with you because I made a bet with Imaro. You're not that cool anymore, are you?"
I turn my back on him and immediately run back to Imaro and the others.There I sit across from Imaro and try to calm down first.
"Hey, that was really cool. You showed him." Imaro praises me.
"Yes, he won't dare to go near you." Adds Heiji.
"Well, that's how I am.", I reply and start laughing. A few from my class and the soccer team cheer loudly and a few minutes later everyone starts laughing with me.
Now I spend the evening with my friends I have already made and I have to say that I like it better, which is not very surprising either. A cold wind rushes by and since I've only put on a thin jacket, I shiver a little. I put my hands in my jacket pockets to warm them, but unfortunately the shaking doesn't stop. Unexpectedly, I feel something warm on my back, which is wrapped around my entire upper body. I look up and see Heiji sit down next to me and put his arm around me. At first I can't utter a single word until I notice that he now has no jacket.I ask a little cautiously:
"Aren't you cold?"
"No, the sweater is thick enough. And if I stay here you will keep me warm too."
"Thank you!", I say and look into his eyes. My heart starts racing and I feel an unprecedented tingling sensation in my stomach, but it doesn't feel bad. Heiji is suddenly called, wherever I quickly look elsewhere. The tingling still doesn't go away and when I realize how close Heiji is to me, it only gets stronger. 'What's the matter with me? Let it stop! '
When Heiji is done with his conversation, he turns back to me:
"When do you have to go home?"
"Half past twelve, but unfortunately I don't have a clock."
"But I. And I would say ...", he lifts his right hand and looks at his watch, which I still know from the hospital, "... that we should start running now."
He gets up and takes two steps forward, but waits until I come.He says goodbye to everyone and I do the same, but then ask:
"Why we'?"
"I have to go home at that time too. Well, actually only at 12, but what does the half hour matter? I don't want to let you walk home alone in the dark. We just happen to live next to each other," he replies and grins at me.
Now my heart starts racing again and I grin at him too. I quickly turn my gaze back to the front and notice a bit of heat rising in my head. 'I hope I don't get too red!'
After a few minutes we arrived at the garden gate of my home and I give Heiji his soft jacket back.
"I'll see you tomorrow. See you then."
"Yes, see you tomorrow.", I still call, but immediately wonder why I see him again tomorrow. 'Well, I'll see. 'I answer myself and go into the house in a good mood.
Grinning, I get ready to go to sleep.When I get into my room, I see light in the opposite window. I go close to my window to see better and see Heiji. Sighing, I lean against the wall and still feel the butterflies in my stomach. 'Actually, he looks pretty good! 'I notice when I close the curtain. Seconds later, when I notice what I'm thinking, I try to concentrate on something else. I lie down in my bed, quickly turn off the light and close my eyes. But what appears in front of me is Heiji again.
"No, not him!" I whisper when I realize that I like him more than just a normal friend.
