(Hii! :D PhantomhiveAngel here. I just wanted to say that I'm so sorry for the late update u.u I'll try to be quicker next time :'v I hope you are enjoying the story so far ^-^ Thanks for reading!)

I was quite nervous that day. I just had realized that I was in love with someone, and man, it was amazing.

Thinking about Ford made me so happy! I can't explain it with words... He was handsome, and I couldn't understand why people didn't like him at all.

This clearly distracted me while I was working on my codes. Nevertheless, I managed to decipher two more.

"WAITING ALWAYS TAKES TIME"
"TICK, TOCK, WATCHING YOU".

Of course, it had to be a creepy message. It didn't even rhyme, what the heck!

I took my bag and went to school. I really wanted to see Stanford and his brother, but I couldn't find them.

I went to my class and there they were, talking about something I couldn't hear because of the general noise.

Ford was blushing... a lot.

...That was so cute.

I stared at them for a couple of seconds before they noticed that I was standing right beside their tables.

It seemed like I scared Ford, because he jumped in his seat and then chuckled. He was propably dying inside due to his shyness.

-Ah! *N*! You are here!
-Yes, I am -I laughed, sitting on my chair-. How are you two doing?
-Hi, missy! Looking fine today, aren't ya? -said Stanley, winking.

I looked at my outfit. It was just a tee with some shorts, but guys are weird, I guess.

Stanford bit his lip, dissapointed by his brother's comment... once again. This time, he decided to let it go.

-Your flirting skills are really bad, Stanley -I stated.
He started to laugh.
-Are you kidding me? I don't like you at all, you nerdie!
-Yeah, sure thing dork.

Stanford seemed to have a serious crisis trying to control himself.
-Soo, Ford? -I started, trying to distract him-. Wanna play some DDAndMoreD after school?

He smiled, shyly scratching his back.
-I-I'd love to! We can go to my house if you want! My parents aren't home this afternoon...
-Ok! Sounds great! Is Stanley going to play with us?
-Well, actually...

Stanford looked at him, his gaze full of panic.
-...I had other plans already! Sorry!

Lee smiled at his brother. What were they thinking about...?
Ford looked very dissapointed. Poor thing, he was almost shaking.

-It's ok, Stanley. See you later, then!
-See you...

We stopped our conversation when the class started.

***

I waited for my crush to exit the building, reading my book under a tree.

I was about to be with Ford in his house! Just the two of us!

Ah, isn't that amazing...

Then, I saw him. He was discussing with his brother... again.

~Stanford~

I was very, very, VERY nervous. I thought I was going to pass out! The most beautiful girl in the world, *N*, invited ME to play DDAndMoreD with her!

IN MY HOUSE!

JUST THE TWO OF US!

...Wait. No, that wasn't right.
Just the two of us?! OH GOSH NO.

I didn't think I could survive to something like that, and Stanley knew perfectly that I needed him!

When he said that he had other plans, my own world collapsed.

The fragile buildings of love were being attacked by my tremendous shyness! AND I HAD TO FIGHT IT ALONE!

Gosh, Lee... Why did you have to ruin everything?!
-Stanley, are you nuts?! You were supposed to help me today!!

-Sixer, bro -he put a hand on my shoulder with a smirk on his face-. You have to deal with that stuff by yourself, that's how you learn from it!

-B-But...!
-Don't go "b-but" again! You know, it's better for both of you if I'm not around. Come on, don't act like a little girl! You have her, Ford!

I was about to break his neck or something, but then I remembered that I was a very educated guy.

-I won't go then -I murmured.
-Shut up! Of course you will! You can do it!
-Stanley, I suck at this!
-Just think on what I've taught you! You are gonna be fine, I swear!

Then, I saw her.
Watching us.

...I absolutely had no escape.

-Good luck, bro!! -said Lee, running away. What an idiot!

-Hey, Stanford! -I heard her say.
I turned my head, smiling (I think). She ran to me, and gave me a hug. I died a little, but hey, I was fine.

-Soo... Are you ready? -she asked.
-T-Totally! Heh...

We started to walk, talking about our characters and other interesting things.

To be honest, I wasn't paying attention to what I was saying, because I couldn't stop looking at that gorgeous face and... oh, gosh, that amazing body of hers...

She was too much for me.
I had to face it; she would never love a freak like me.

***

-Aand... ELEVEN!! -she screamed, laughing with a beautiful smile.
-Wow! Y-You are much better than me... I'm impressed!

*N* was truly the best DDAndMoreD player in the entire universe. Even the abilities of her character were carefully combined in a list full of special attacks and qualities. She was such a professional!

-I told you I was going to absolutely destroy the troll with that one!
-You are absolutely amazing... I-I mean, your character is! ...No, no, you too!

She started chuckling again. Ugh, so embarrassing...
-Don't say that, your elf is awesome!
-Thanks! Heh, heh...

Then it happened. Awkward silence.

-Uhh... I think it was your turn -she murmured.
-Actually...

"Come on, Stanford Pines" I thought. "There is no going back"
-...I-I have to tell you s-something...

*N* looked at me with her deep *E/C* eyes.
-Sure, what is it?

I sighed, and then took her hand.
-Look, *N*, I know it's been only a month since I met you...

She seemed worried. "Ohmylord".
-Umm... Yeah, so?
-There's something I wanted to tell you from the very first moment I saw you... -I bit my lip, and then took a deep breath-. You are the most beautiful human being i've ever seen in my life.

*N* looked like she had seen a ghost. I didn't think that was good...
-L-Look, *N*... You are the only girl I know that didn't ran away when you saw my hands, plus, you are kind, funny, gorgeous and one of the best people I've met.

I noticed that her eyes were getting watery. Oh, no...
-...S-Stanford, I--
-Don't say anything if you don't want to! You can leave my house now, but please, don't hate me... I simply like you a lot...

*N* opened her mouth a little, and tried to say something, but she was too nervous. Did I screw up again...?

-Stanford... -she whispered.
I was ready to be slapped in the face.

-...I love you.

As I expected, she--wait a minute.

WAIT A MINUTE.

...WHAT?!

I don't know what happened, but a few seconds after this, we were kissing.

My first kiss... with my crush.
