Oliver and I settled on going to the arcade in the mall next town. After school, I hurried up to meet Oliver at the bus. I had told Isabella I was going to visit my mom for the afternoon so I wasn't going home and going to spend time with her.
I arrive first at the bus stop and wait for him, he arrived quickly after me "Sorry, Ms Jonson didn't want to let us go out"
We smacked "Don't worry," I answer "the bus is only coming in three"
"Great, do you have your lunch?"
"Yes, you?" we didn't want to spend too much money on lunch because the arcade and all were already expensive enough
"Same, let's eat on the bus"
The bus arrived as scheduled, three minutes after that. We ate on the bus, he had a pasta Tupperware and I had a cheese sandwich. The bus was a little packed but we were at one of the first stops so we could immediately sit down comfortably. The ride took about 25 minutes.
We went to the arcade and buy our tickets
"What do you want to start with?"
"That!" I point out at some car "it's only two coins and seems fun"
We played with some cars, then motos, we did two table games and finally a VR simulation of a roller coaster
"That was fun," Oliver smiles at me
"Yes, it was," I was putting my coat on at the exit of the arcade and putting back my back "Want to have a walk in the mall?"
"Yes, it's still early, only 3:15 pm. Let's go" he holds out his hand for me and I took it. It felt strange to do it in public, true we kissed from time to time when we were alone or far from our home but we'd never held hands publicly for a long period of time
We went to a shoe store, and two clothing stores just to go window-shopping. Finally, we went to a videogame but only to look at the figurines, especially the ones of Azul which was an anime I really enjoyed.
"Why must it be so expensive, $75, just for one tiny figurine" I whine
"Why did you expect?" he laughs "We won't go window-shopping in this store again if it makes you in that state"
"No I am being over-dramatic, let's just go" I answer laughing
On the way out of the store, Oliver suddenly stopped himself and suddenly tells me "Go wait for me outside two minutes Sean"
"What-"
"Just go wait outside" he pushed me outside of the store "and don't look at me"
A few minutes later he came back with a bag
"Why did you abandon me outside? did you take pity on me because you wanted to buy something expensive, I am not that broke you know!"
"I know, I know, I'll explain later but let's catch the bus. If we don't take the one in two minutes we have to wait for 40 minutes so hurry up" he says then starts running, holding my wrist.
I wanted to ask a lot of questions but I really wanted to catch the bus, we didn't have much left to do and I would rather not wait 40 minutes at a bus stop even with my boyfriend, so I follow him to the bus. We were far in the mall so we had quite a way to the exit when we arrived the bus was already there and luckily we were able to enter it.
"You will be the death of me" I breath
The bus was crowded and I had a slight tiredness so we didn't have many vocal interactions, he held the rail of the bus and I was holding him to not fall, you could say I was hugging him because it was the case.
"Sean?" Oliver calls me, only one stop was left "Do you want to come to my house? It's only 5:20 pm and I have a gift for you"
"The thing you bought at the video game store?" I questioned
