Beyond the Gaze of a Boy - Date

I climb out of the pool, watching the water drip at my feet. Suddenly, my skin is prickling, and I'm intensely aware of eyes on me.

All eyes on me.

"Fuck," I whisper, taking a deep breath.

I hadn't been hiding my sexuality, but I'd sure as hell just advertised it for everyone to see.

Heat bathes my side as Jasper steps up to me, slipping his hand into mine. He reaches up, tilting my chin so I'm forced to look at him.

"Go out with me tomorrow night?" he murmurs. "Please?"

"Yes." I smile as he kisses me again.
