Two teenagers drowning in their own emotions.
She was the 'I'm fine' type of girl.
He was the 'no you not, tell me what happened' type of boy.
Could I make it more obvious?

"What are we playing?" I ask. As all of us sit in the living room.
"Truth or drink," Will answered giving all of us a drink. "Okay," he claps his hand together. "Matt," he smiles at him. "Ever peed yourself recently?"
"Oh fuck off Will," he exclaimed. "That was once!" He raises his hand in defense as we all burst out laughing."Whatever," he turned to Kim. "Kimberly, have you ever been chased by the police."
"Once when I was fifteen," she answers simply. "Scott," she turns to him. "Who'd you loose your virginity too?"
"Ming Quinine," he answers making everyone gasp.
"Her!" We all exclaimed while he smirks slowly. Ming was the super quiet girl so it's a shocking that she even touched him.
"Caden," Scott said smirking at him. "Who was your first kiss?" I bit my lip remembering eighth grade spring break.
"Heaven," he whispers. As we both avoid any form of eye contact.
"What!" Everyone shouts. They all look at each other like they didn't just hear that.
"Heaven!" Scott shouts. "Who was your first kiss?" They all stare at me anxiously waiting for me to answer. I nod my head towards Caden still having my eyes trained on the shiny floor.
Slowly drifting my thought to that spring night.
I'm currently outside dazing at the bright firefly inside of Matt's gazebo. A party inside the house.
"What are you doing out here?" A voice asked from behind me. Turning around I look at Caden.
"Fresh air," I shrug. Crossing my arms over my chest. The sudden coldness brushing against my skin.
"Are you cold?" He asks softly looking down at the wooden floor like it's the most interesting thing.
"I'm fine," I brush off. Looking at the dark sky. He signs heavenly looking around before tugging off his black Nike hoodie, his torso showing slightly as he slides the hoodie off.
"Here," he mumbles lightly handing me the hoodie while looking around.
"No you wear it," I refuse shaking my head in disapproval.
"No you wear it," he repeats my words back to me. Shaking his hoodie slightly gesturing me to wear it.
"Wear your hoodie Caden,"
"Your obviously cold Heaven, wear it," he glances at me before taking his hoodie and quickly putting it over my head.
"Your going to be cold now!" I whine when it's finally on. He slowly takes my hair out of the hoodie that was tucked inside.
I hear Sweater Weather by The Neighborhood blast from inside the house.
"And all I am is a man I want the world in my hands" the song plays.
Caden looks down at me since he's taller than me.
"I hate the beach But I stand in California with my toes in the sand Use the sleeves on my sweater Lets have an adventure"
He brushes a strand of hair that covered my face due to the windy night behind my ear.
"Head in the clouds but my gravity centered Touch my neck and I'll touch yours You in those little high waisted shorts"
Instead of letting go of my face he cups it with his surprisingly warm hands.
"Oh, she knows what I think about And what I think about One love, two mouths One love, one house No shirts, no blouse Just us, you find out"
We stare at each other for awhile not even noticing the two of us discreetly getting closer. He slightly parts his lips as I copy the action.
"Nothing I really wanna tell you about no 'Cause it's too cold, whoa For you here And now, so let me hold, whoa Both your hands in the holes of my sweater And if I may just take your breath away"
Our lips touching slightly, stopping for a second before our lips fully touched.
"I don't mind if there's not much to say Sometimes the silence guides your mind So move to a place so far away The goosebumps start to race The minute that my left hand meets your waist And then I watch your face"
We softly kiss each other. Like it's the most purest thing that we have ever experienced. Almost like he has all the time in the world.
"Put my finger on your tongue 'cause you love to taste yeah These hearts adore, everyone the other beat heart is for Inside this place is warm Outside it starts to pour"
We slowly pull away from each other, both foreheads resting against each other. Both of us focusing on the other.
"Coming down One love, two mouths One love, one house No shirts, no blouse Just us, you find out Nothing I really wanna tell you about, no no no 'Cause it's too cold, whoa"
A smile graces his lips, the most beautifulest, genuine smile I have ever witnessed.
"So gorgeous," he whispers. It felt like it was meant only for him to hear.
"For you here And now, so let me hold, whoa Both your hands in the holes of my sweater"
We both look up to the side slightly when rain starts to pour from the night sky. It felt like a night from reality.
"'Cause it's too cold, whoa For you here And now, so let me hold, whoa Both your hands in the holes of my sweater"
He rests his head on my shoulder, I resting my head on top of his. Both of us leaning into one another.
"'Cause it's too cold, whoa For you here And now, so let me hold, whoa Both your hands in the holes of my sweater"
Both soft smiles on our lips as we enjoy the beautiful night rain.
"It's too cold, whoa For you here And now, so let me hold, whoa Both your hands in the holes of my sweater"
I look down at our hands when he slowly interlocks our hands together.
"It's too cold, it's too cold The hands of my sweater"
Away from reality
I look up at Caden hesitantly seeing he's already looking at me with a small smile. Like he was remembering the night too.
