"alex? alex, wake up," she spoke softly, her voice barely over a whisper.

alex groaned as he rolled over in the small twin sized bed to face her. "what is it?" he mumbled, still half asleep.

"i need to tell you something, alex. but i'm scared to tell you."

his face twisted a little, changing into a frown. "you can tell me anything, you know. anything at all," he whispered to the girl, pulling her small trembling frame against his warm body.

she gulped and nodded. "alex, i really don't know how to say this. and please, please don't be mad. but i'm-i'm-" tears were trickling down her cheeks because she was certain he wouldn't feel the same way.

"i'm in love with you, alex," she finally whispered, hiding her face in his chest.

a grin spread across the young man's face. "you really had nothing to worry about, julie. i'm in love with you too."

she slowly looked up at him, surprise written over her dainty features. "you do?"

"i do," he smiled and kissed her forehead gently. "so much."
