• I looked up at the sun through the trees branches, some rays hit my face and warmed those spots.
    I looked at the person sitting next to me they were also looking up at the sun. I smiled as they turned their head to look at me.
    "Happy?" I asked them they smiled
    "Very, how about you?" my smile widened and I nodded. School was just about over for summer and I could spend the rest of it with my best friends.
    "Hey Alice?" they looked at me still smiling.
    "Yeah?"
    "Who do you like?" My best friend Thomas had never asked me that type of question before.
    I pretended to think for a moment, then looked back into his eyes, "I like you tom, you're my best friend, ever since grade 1"
    "No really Alice, who do you like?" His smile left his face and a frown appeared.
    "Really, Tom I like you, I always have" His smile returned and mine widened. I did like Tom, he was pretty much my only friend. Girls love him because he is very cute or hot with his soft, sort of long blond hair and pure green eyes. His skin was pretty tan and he was always so nice to everyone that most of the guy population in our school was jealous of him.
    Though it wasn't until 8th grade that I realized that I had a crush on him. I didn't tell anyone and just pushed the thought out of my head. It kept coming back again though, like it was haunting me.
    "Okay, I told you who I like, now you have to tell me who you like Tom" Thomas turned his head away, I thought that I saw him blushing!
    "I - " I couldn't hear the rest of what Thomas had just said.
    "What did you say?" I leaned in closer so I could hear him better.
    "I said I like you!" Thomas turned around and we were only millimeters away from each others faces.
    I blushed madly and turned my face away. I hope he didn't notice that I was blushing.
    "Alice?"
    "Y-yeah?" I didn't turn to face him.
    "Please turn around" I shook my head.
    "I'll make you turn around, that or I might just have to pin you down like I usually do" I paused and waited until the heat from my face cooled down a bit.
    "If you don't turn around on the count of 3 I'll tackle you" I didn't move the heat still hadn't gone away.
    "3, 2, . . 1!" I felt Thomas tackle me from behind and I was now lying on the ground back up.
    "Tom-ugh g-get off of m-me please!" I was now really warm, not just because of the sun or because I was embarrassed, but because Thomas was on my and he was VERY warm.
    "Nope, not until you face me" I was going to die if he didn't get off me now! Wait, I have an Idea.
    "Hey Alice you okay?" I tried evening my breathing and closed my eyes, I was pretending I had fainted.
    Thomas got off of me and I could breathe again, also I felt a cool breeze fluff my shirt.
    Thomas took me and flipped me over. I could feel his warm breath on my face.
    "Alice! Wake up!" I didn't move or say anything.
    Then I could feel something cover my mouth. Then it started pushing air into my already breathing lungs.
    I opened my eyes in shock and saw that it was Thomas, giving me CPR!
    I moved out of his grasp and started breathing heavily. Thomas just stared at me in shock.
    Thomas smiled and grabbed my arm and pulled me into a very tight embrace, "Don't ever scare me like that again Alice" Thomasa's voice sounded rough, not cheery and light.
    'It was only a joke Tom and I probably would've died if you hadn't gotten off of me soon"
    I felt Thomas laugh, I started laughing with him too.
    "I really like you Alice, so please don't scare me again" I could still feel Thomasa's heart beating fast.
    "Oh another thing Tom, next time you are going to give me CPR, see if I'm breathing first"
    Thomas laugh more and I laughing with him.
    Me and Thomas stayed like that for a while. I hugged him back too after a minute.
    The start of summer was coming fast, just a couple more days. And me and Thomas wouldn't have to worry about any homework or teachers or fan girls. It was just going to be us, doing what we usually do in the summer. Swimming, hiking, canoeing and smiling and creating new memories.
    But this summer would be a little more different I think.
