"me too.." she said, but she wasn't, she only said it because he said it and she felt ridiculous by not saying it cause then it would mean he would realise that she sorta like him more than a friend and if he didn't (because he had said sorry) than it would all be too awkward for her.
she sat up, just so that she wouldn't have to lean on her shaky arms anymore "Let's eat" She mumbled, to change the subject, to change their thoughts and especially acts..

"Yeah ..." Gilbert said, sitting up. He had wanted some sort of confirmation that she liked him and had wanted him to kiss her but now he wasnt so sure ... maybe he'd just made a horrible mistake.
"I bought a bit of everything," He said. "I'm sure momma wont miss it," He rolled his eyes.

she smirked a little and pushed him "Stop it, your mother is sweet and great, figuratively, she deserves better then those words of you.." she sighed and took a cookie "I wish I could stay to help you and your mother reconnect.. you guys just really seem disconnected.. you love her, I know you do" She said, looking at him intensely
you just kissed him. You just kissed this guy. You kissed Gilbert ! He's sitting right next to you and you're acting like nothing ever happened...
you're crazy

"I think that's a lost cause, no matter how long you stayed," Gilbert sighed and laid down on the blanket again. He didnt really feel like eating, the picnic was mainly for Nikki, he never felt like eating much usually anyway.
Gilbert laid in silence for a few minutes, staring up at the sky. It was nearly sunset.
"When are you leaving?" He asked eventually.

"well.. if we find the right college and a place for me to stay than it can be a matter of only a few weeks.." she mumbled, chewing on some grapes  while watching the sun set slowly.. "this is pretty" she said with a small smile on her face. |

"You're pretty," Gilbert said, gently pulling her arm so she was laying down next to him. "I'm glad I lost the poker game," He smiled, stealing one of the grapes from her. "But next time I think we should try strip poker," He smirked.

Nikki looked at Gilbert as he pulled her down again, she felt a tingly feeling in her stomach as he said she was pretty. "You know my parents would never... never agree to that" she giggled. Her parents were typically american, they tried to force religion on her because they tought it was important but when she had a choice at sixteen not to go to church anymore she didn't go. They were prude so strippoker would be a no-go for sure.
"Gilbert?" She wanted to ask him what he was thinking and why he said she was pretty after all those years of friendship when they really were just good friends. She wanted to know what had changed from his side, afterall they *had* just kissed...

"Mm?" He said, watching her face intently, the orange sunlight spilling over her face as it set, highlighting her features and making her look even more gorgeous than usual.

"..." she bit her bottom lip "What changed?" she asked eventually "Between us?"

"We grew up," Gilbert said, having noticed as he got older he had started to notice Nikki's beautiful face and perfect body. "You're leaving ..." He shrugged. "I dont want to leave anything unsaid, like telling you how pretty you are, which I should've done more of," He smiled.
