Here's a new story I came up with I hope you guys like it! And I have another new story that I'll be posting very soon, within the hour called This Is Not A Puppy Love, so if you want to, once I get that posted, you can check it out as well. :)___________________________________________________ Damian McGinty. He was the heartthrob of the school. Every girl wanted him and every guy wanted to be him. It seemed as if he had everything, he toured the United States every year and girls practically fell at his feet. But who could blame them? He had gorgeous blue eyes and a flashing smile. No girl could deny him, or so he thought. There was one girl, Leah. Leah Hudson. She was a girl in Damian's grade. He'd never really talked to her. Leah was a quiet, conservative girl. She wasn't very high up on the social ladder and she didn't have too many friends. Just a handful of close friends. Not many people even noticed her. And surely, Damian hadn't, until that changed everything. -Leah's POV- Just your typical Thursday afternoon and with nothing better to do, I went to the auditorium.After getting up on the stage, I began to sing. It was this song called Gimme Gimme from one of my favorite musicals Thoroughly Modern Millie. I sang my heart out on stage. i felt powerful and strong. I felt like someone different, someone that wasn't myself. I felt invincible, not invisible. I though I was all alone in the auditorium until I heard applause coming from a single set of hands. I assumed it was one of my friends, Correction, one of my few friends.But no, it wasn't. It was a boy. And not just any boy. It was Damian. Damian McGinty. "H-hi.", I stammered. "Hey, you're an amazing singer.", he stated. "Thanks." "I'm_" "Damian McGinty, I know, everyone knows." "Is that so?" "Yep. Every girl in this school is in love with you." "Every girl? Including you?" "Oh not me. I think you seem a wee bit self-centered. Actually I take that back, you are really self-centered." "I am not. Look, how about I take ye out to dinner and we can finish this arguement there?" He winked. I rolled my eyes. "Um... let me think... no!" "Wait, did you just say no?" "Yeah, I kinda did." He looked astonished. "But... no girl says no to me." "I just did." :Why?" "Well, let's see, I don't feel like wasting my time in a resteraunt with you and your narcissistic little self.", I said, walking away before he could say anything else. Wow, I can not believe he thought he could simply win me over by asking me out to dinner. Actually I can believe it, afterall, he is Damian McGinty. Why do other girls water all their time deraming about him? All he'll do is play with your heart. Whatever, I wasn't going to spend my time thinking about him. He's nothing more than a self-centered, stuck up, narcissistic fake. -Damian's POV- The nerve of her to reject me! No on says no to me, I'm Damian Joseph Mcginty, Jr. I'm good looking, I can sing, I have an amazing smile, and everyone just loves my blue eyes. Why would she say no? Am I too full of myself? No, I'm just confident. Confidence is sexy. Okay, amybe I am a bit cocky, but I'm no narcissist, am I? I think I am. I think what's her name was right. Wait... what was her name anyway? Something with an L. Lily, Lucy, Lizzie, Layla, Lacey? Oh wait. Her name was Leah... I think. Yeah, her name is Leah. Leah Hudson. Why haven't I noticed her before? Maybe I am too self-centered. Leah seems like a nice girl and she's really pretty. And I'll do anything it takes to win her over. Step 1: Be a little less narissistic. I can so do this. ____________________________________________________ How was that?? I hoped you guys liked it and i'll probably get another update in by/on Wednesday!!

*The Next Day* -Leah's POV- Okay, look, maybe I was a little too snappy yesterday. I mean... He is kinda cute. Actually, he's very cute. And his blue eyes- wow. Wait... No, I can't be falling for him. He's damian Mcginty; THE Damian Mcginty. And I'm just Leah Hudson, no on ever notices me.... But he noticed me. I don't know, should I give him a chance? He could be really sweet and... No! Leah, think about this... He's a somebody and there are tons of other girls that like him, including his fans... What were they called? Thunder.... Thunder-something. Thunder... Thunderheads! Yeah, them, well, they like him too and... Why would he actually go out with me? I'm just an ordinary girl, and I'm not that pretty. Girl, you're gorgeous! Why wouldn't he like with you? You're sweet, funny, nice, friendly, pretty, and you're Leah hudson. Girl, you got this. It seemed as if my own mind was arguing with itself. And still, I wasn't sure what to do. Then, I came to a final decision, I'd give a chance. -Damian's POV- Okay, confident, not cocky. Less narcissistic. Focus more on her, not yourself. You got this, afterall, you are Damian McGinty. I walked up to her locker. -Leah's POV- I was at my locker getting my Physics books and someone walked up to me. When I saw who it was, I swear, my heart skipped a beat. -Damian's POV- I took a deep breath and thought about what I was going to say, before I actually opened my mouth and began speaking. "Hey Leah." "Hi." "About yesterday, well I'm really sorry I was so cocky and I genuinely mean it.' -Leah's POV- Awww, I knew I had a reason to give him a second chance!! He is sweet. "That's alright. All is forgiven. In fact, I was going to give you a second chance anyway." -damian's POV- Wait, what? She was going to give me a second chance anyway? Maybe she does like me!! "Oh. So wanna sit with me in class?", I inquired. I wasn't sure how to respond to what she'd previously said, but Physics was next might as well ask her if she'd like to sit with me, right? "Sure.", she answered uneasily. "Great." We walked to class together, talking, and laughing, and smiling at each other. I'm glad she gave me a second chance. "Leah, I was wondering if maybe you'd like to get dinner with me tonight?' "Um... Well, why not, sure I'll go.", she smiled. "Okay, we'll talk more about this later." I smiled back. we sat down next to each other, but still I talked with my friends and she, with hers. -Leah's POV- I'm glad I gave Damian a second chance. He really is nice. "Okay, no way were you just talking to Damian McGinty!", one of my best friends, Kaysee exclaimed in a hushed whisper sort of tone. "Well... yeah." "That's awesome! How did you get him to talk to you?", my other best friend, Nicole wondered. "Well, actually, I went to the auditorium after school yesterday and I was singing then from there, we just started talking and he's taking me out to dinner tonight.", I stated as if it was no big deal. "Wow, you're really lucky, Leah.", they both replied. -Damian's POV- "Who was that girl you were just talking to, she's cute. Is she new?", one of my friends, Sean asked. "No, she's not new. She's been her for a while, actually.", I responded. "Oh. And her name is?", another one of my friends, Michael asked. "Leah. Leah Hudson." ____________________________________________________
It wasn't the best update, I know. I'll try and think of something good for tomorrow.

"Let me guess, you like her, don't you?", Sean asked. Was it that obvious?? "Well... yeah, I guess.", I replied. "Then why don't you just ask her out already?", Michael inquired. "Well, I kinda did. I'm taking her out to dinner tonight, but she's a little stubborn." "Stubborn, how? All the girls in this school love you?" "Except for her. Well, I think." "Please, she's probably just playing hard to get." "No, yesterday, she actually called me narcissistic and self-centered." "Oh. Wow." "I know. I'm so not used of this. Normally I'm the one who rejects people." "So, how are ya gonna win her over?" "Well, I was thinking of trying to be less self-centered and stuff like that, but I'm not sure if it'll work." "Of course it'll work. Dude, you're Damian McGinty. Nothing ever goes wrong for you." "But she-" "It'll work out in the end, trust me. Patience is a virtue." "That I don't have!" "Calm down, why her anyway? There are tons of other girls who'd be willing to date you." "I don't know. She's just nice and smart and genuine and she's the one who helped me realize that I needed to change myself." "...Wow. You are really lovestruck. You're never like this. Are you sure you're okay?" "Of course I'm fine." I answered, ending our conversation. -Leah's POV- The fact that Damian asked me out to dinner didn't seem like a huge deal at first, but the more I thought about it, the more of a deal it seemed. I was actually going to be on a dinner date with Damian McGinty. What on Earth had I gotton myself into?

Okay, I thought. It's just a normal date... With a normal boy. It's really not that much of a big deal... I think. No, he's not just a normal boy... He's Damian McGinty. But, whybwould he ask me? There are tons of other girls in school... I guess he likes me -Damian's POV- I was really excited for my date with Leah. I mean, I actually got her to say yes, right? This is like a once in a lifetime opportunity, I better not screw this up. I just have to be myself without being cocky and narcissistic and whatever else she called me. At lunch, I found her in the cafeteria sitting with her friends. "Hey.", I smiled at her. "Hey Damian.", she smiled back. "So... about our date tonight..." "Yeah?" "I'll pick you up at 7:30." "Okay." We spent the lunch period just talking and smiling. I really could not wait for our date. And from what I could tell, neither could she. -Leah's POV- Damian seemed really sweet. And the truth is, I was really excited for our dinner date. He's so much nicer than I would've ever imagined. *Later* I got home around 2:30. I had nothing to do. Well, I might as well start my homework, I thought. But, I couldn't concentrate for long. Which is strange, because I usually never procrastinate. But I just couldn't get my mind off that date. It's just a date, I told myself. Even though I knew it wasn't just a date, it was a date with the sweetest boy I knew. _________________________________________________________________________
It's been a long time, I know. Well, I'll try and get another update in either tomorrow or Tuesday. Hope you guys liked it. ;D

After hours of waiting, I decided I should probably get ready. I decided to put my hair in a lace braid. I picked out a skirt, a light blue shirt, and white ballet flats. Now, I just had to wait for Damian to get here. -Damian's POV- Okay, this is it. You're finally gonna go on a date with her. You got this. At exactly 7:30, I rang her doorbell. "Hey.", Leah smiled. "Hey. You look amazing. ...So, you ready?", I asked. "Oh, yeah." She seemed a bit nervous. We started talking once we got in my car. "Leah, can I be honest with you?", I asked. "Yeah, what is it?" "Well, um, I've been looking forward to our date all day." -Leah's POV- I was genuinely surprised. I wasn't expecting that at all. "...Really?", I asked. He blushed. "Yeah. I just couldn't stop thinking about it." "Me too. But I was wondering, out of every other girl in our school, why me?" "You're not like the other girls, Leah. You're special. You're not desperate like they are. And plus, you're really sweet." Now it was my turn to blush. "Thanks.", I smiled. Then, I noticed he was turning towards where the lake was. "...Wait, where are we going", I inquired. He didn't respond. Mysterious, much? He parked, then opened my door for me. "Ya know, you still haven't explained what we're doing here.", I said. He opened the trunk of his car and pulled out a basket. "We are going to have nice little picnic under the stars.", he replied. 'Aww, much more adorable can he get?' I thought to myself. "You are a genius, Damian." "I like to think I am.", he smirked. He set a blanket down on the grass for us to lie on. "So, what'd you bring for our picnic?", I asked him. "Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, lemonade, strawberries, and white chocolate chip cookies.", he smiled. After we finished eating, he went back to his car to get something "vitally important." When he returned, he asked, "Wanna play footy?" Of course he'd want to play football. It's pretty much all he ever talks about. "Sure.", I responded. After our game of football, we just sat by the lake and talked. Then, we were joking around with each other and I "accidentally" pushed him into the lake. He came out soaking wet. I couldn't help but laugh. "Sorry.", I smiled smugly. "If you're so sorry, why don't you give me a hug?" He started chasing me around the lake. "Damian! No!", I squealed once he caught up to me. He came up behind me, wrapped his arms around me, and spun me around. I couldn't see he face, but I had a feeling he was smirking. "Damian, stop it!", I giggled. He put me down and we were facing each other. I looked up at his beautiful blue eyes. He smiled at me and then he leaned in and kissed me. It was the most amazing kiss ever. He pulled away and I smiled at him. "Wow.", I said. He checked his watch. "As much as I don't want our lovely picnic to end, I do believe I have to take you home. It's getting late. Come on, let's go." He held my hand and we walked over to fold the blanket and pick up the basket. Once we put them in the trunk, I asked him, "Is that everything?" Suddenly, his face was sick with worry. "No, I forgot the most important thing!", he replied. I stood there wondering what he forgot, as he sprinted back. Shortly, he returned. He forgot his football. Of course it's the "most important thing." I smiled and shook my head. Much too soon, we were back at my house. "Goodnight Damian. Thank you for one amazing picnic.", I said, smiling. "Goodnight dear.", he said and then kissed my cheek. I went inside then and couldn't help but smile to myself. I just had the most amazing picnic with the most amazing boy. -Damian's POV- That was the most perfect date ever. And I realized one thing, I think I love Leah Emily Hudon.
