it never seemed to add up in your head, why natalie scatorccio randomly started being nice to you. you’d always admired her football skills, her style, how she didn’t give a fuck about what anyone said.. you thought she was pretty cool. but you two never spoke.

until a random tuesday, where she saw you aimlessly dribbling your football, and went over to you. she showed off by doing a trick then passing it back to you, and you two talked.

then you started becoming closer, she would go round to yours a lot or you’d play football in the park. it was friendly, until spontaneous compliments and hand holding started showing up here and there.

she was making you fall for her, and she didn’t even know it.

or did she?

natalie never said anything about it, you’d swear she thought it was platonic. until she asked you to go to prom one night, after two months of knowing eachother. it was random, she was having a sleepover at your house that night, and you two were comfy in your bed, when she turned around, took your hand in hers, and asked you.

your immediate answer was obviously yes, but the next part was weird. she didn’t kiss you, which you expected. she just smiled and squeezed your hand before turning back around and falling asleep. maybe it’s friendly..?

or maybe this was nothing at all, all along. that was your first thought, when you caught a glimpse of the messages on her phone. she’d gone downstairs to get drinks, so you had enough time to look.
