i lead you over the field, holding tightly onto your hand, hoping you don’t notice how sweaty my hand is

we’ve been a couple for about a month now. We’re in the same class and I mean, I’ve always liked you. Surprisingly, you liked me back. I glance over at you and smile nervously. We walk over to the old viaduct in our village, Holmes chapel. I’ve taken you here for two reasons; it’s my favourite place in Holmes chapel. Here I can be alone with my thoughts. But mostly I took you here to kiss you for the first time. I feel my heart beating faster as you lean back against the cold stone wall. I lean closer to you, my gaze lowering down to your lips

“Can I kiss you?” I whisper softly
