THE GOSSIP
LILLY JENSONTHURSDAY, 2ND OCTOBER 200800:32"LILLY JENSON ON ... OMG"Omg omg. I can't believe it. I'm so stupid!!! But I'm grinning from ear to ear!! And typing really fast to try and get it all out, as perfect as I remember it... ahh here goes!!
Okay, so Josh was already waiting outside Fenwicks when I got there just after seven-thirty. It was really cold and I was all wrapped up in my coat and scarf, wondering whether I had a red nose and looked like an idiot. Anyway he looked soo cute stood there waiting, his hair falling out of his hat and a huge smile on his face (calm down)
So anyway, he greeted me with a hug and he smelt soo good and he made lots of jokes about taking me for a burger, before I linked my arm into his and we walked. Dinner was great! I wasn't all that hungry, but the conversation just wouldn't stop flowing, it was amazing, we just had so much to talk about! There was no mention of Summer or anything that had happened lately, it was all nice, light conversation and jokes, he really made me laugh and smile all night, ahh it was great!
And here comes the big part... okay. SOmething clicked inside of me. It was when he said something about my hair, he was complimenting the way I looked and our eyes caught for a little longer than they should have. And his eyes were all dark and sparkly and chocolaty brown, and he had this most handsome smile on his face... and his hair was still spilling out from his beanie and it was just... I don't know. Something clicked. And I don't know what it was, but I sat there with a feeling of contentment inside of me. I loved sitting in Handmade Burger Co with him, munching away and talking. We were sat next to each other, really close, and I just couldn't bring myself away from him.
Afterwards when he walked me home we were linked arm in arm again and that's when we started talking about more serious things. Josh asked me why I didn't tell him about what happened between me and Summer on Monday, and I explained that I didn't want him to feel guilty about it. And I mentioned that I didn't want him to cancel our dates, as I was quite starting to enjoy them.
When we got to my student accomm he came inside the gate with me and walked me to the main doors. Then we had a minute where we were stood facing each other and he stepped forward and I swear I almost stopped breathing for a second. Josh told me that he had had a really good night, and he was looking at me with those brown eyes again, and then he leaned forward and I thought he was going to kiss me but the main doors burst open and his kiss eventually landed on my cheek. Which was good enough for me. He waited until I was inside and everything. And now, as I sit here, I realise it.
I like Josh Baker. He has totally, utterly charmed me.
