    As I pulled away from Mona's soft lips with the gum between my teeth I looked deep into her dark brown eyes. I wanted to say something so bad but the words just wouldn't come out of my mouth. At that moment a million thoughts were running through my head. "What am I doing I asked myself". For the rest of the day I wasn't the same with Mona. It was just awkward because I didn't know how i felt about what had happen. I was cold with Mona all day and just concentrated on playing center field.

    On the way home I didn't even sit with Mona most of the way. I sat with Vera and Alyssa joking the whole time and what not. I made sure that Mona knew I wasn't mad or anything. I just felt awkward and confused.

    When I got home I went right past dinner and straight to my cold room just to think.  This situation was blowing my mind. I was so freaked out because I had actually touched another girls lips with mine. I mean I was fine with lesbians, I even knew some gay people but just not me. I was even more freaked out because of the fact that it didn't freak me out at the moment. I wanted to do it, and I did it. Thats the part that made me think so much. Why? Why would I do that? 

    The very next day Mona went over to the middle school and asked if she could talk to me.  I was just worried about Aaron. He asked to be with me again. I always gave into Aaron. 

    I got a pass to the restroom and went outside to talk to Mona.  I tried to act as normal as possible with her, the way it always is. So I gave her a tight hug because thats what I normally do. She said, "I have your letter of the day for you. I decided I couldn't wait till practice time to give it to you." I grabbed the letter out of her hand with a smile on my face and said "thanks". I couldn't wait to get back to class just so I could read it. I said, "Well I better be getting back to class before my teacher comes looking for me," and gave her another tight hug.

    I sat down at my seat in science class behind Martinika and beside Vera. I guess I had the "not so innocent look" on my face because Mart gave me the guilty look and asked me if I needed to tell her anything. I smiled and said "nope" and put my head down. I slumped down in my desk and started to open Mona's letter. It was written in black ink and started off with the usual, "Hey there babe." I slumped a little bit lower in my desk so nobody could read her letter. I was worried about my friends being a little too nosey and reading over my shoulder. The letter went something like this.

    "Hey there babe what are you doing? I'm just sitting here in class

thinking of you of course. I wanted to talk to you about the other day on

the bus. You seemed a little freaked out. If I moved too fast or did

something you didn't like you can just tell me and I won't do it again

ok? I don't want to make you feel unconfortable or anything ok babe? I

just want you to tell me if something is wrong. Anyway I better go now. I

think im going to the middle school to take this to you cuz I can't wait

till practice and plus I want to see you. Miss ya. love ya. 

Always, Mona

P.S.

Hey okoos! Just wanted to say hi!! :)

Always, Renee (Okoos)"

 

    I folded up the letter with a smile on my face and stuffed it in my pocket. I sat and pictured Mona in class writting me this letter. I guess I just wanted to picture her in my head. Then I wondered if Renee had read what she wrote to me and what she thought about it if she did. I didn't want anyone to know for some reason. Vera slapps me on the back and says "dude why do you and Mona write to each other so much? And why do you always have a smile on your face when you read her letters? what does she tell you?" My response was always just "cuz she's my babe dude!"

    I turned my notebook around and flipped the pages of my notes to a blank piece of paper. I wondered  what I was going to write in this letter because I, myself didn't even know how I felt about her and that day on the bus. I reached into my backpack on the floor and grabbed the pen I always wrote her letters with and started off the letter with "Dear My Babe Mona"...
