That night
***
It was ten to 7 and i was at Chants (short for Chantelle) house. I had already filled her in on everything and she was putting the final touches to my makeup
"I'm nervous Chant! What if he doesn't ask tonight and i look like an idiot or what if he's changed his mind and doesn't ask at all?"
"Babes, totally chill out. You look gorgeous, you have an amazing personality and besides all that, you kissed him today! It'll go fine"
"He messaged me!"
Mitch
almost here?
Me
leaving chants now
Mitch
can't wait
I grabbed my phone and hugged it to my chest
"I'm so excited!"

Chantelle had dropped me off just outside Mitchell's house and i knocked on the door but to no answer so i rang him instead
"hey mitch, i'm outside"
"Aw shit! Here i've hopped in the shower but let yourself in yeah?"
"Will do"
I opened his front door and heard the shower going, so i popped into the kitchen and grabbed some fruit. I'd watched tv alone for about 10minutes, messaging the groupchat.
"he's in the shower"
"BABES!"
"what?"
"go up and join him xx"
"piss off x"
I heard the shower stop and i walked around to see if Mitchell was done yet, but i heard him on the phone to a girl.
My nosiness got the better of me and i listened in.
"Someone's in looove" I heard Chantelle say
"Oh shit, maybe I am. Bollocks" came Mitches voice
In love? He loves me? I saw the door handle start to turn and i went back into the kitchen. I turned around and saw Mitchell standing in the doorway, towel tied around his waist, water from the shower rolling down abs i wasn't surprised he had.
"Shit"
"What"
"You're not.. You don't have.. I mean"
I gestured towards him, wearing only a towel
"Like the view?" he teased
"Go get changed" i laughed
Back in his bedroom i heard him on the phone again.
"Oi Dickers, I need your advice"
He was on the phone to Alfie! I didn't want to be too nosey so I left him to his conversation and soon after he came out
"Hey E" he said, wrapping his strong arms around me
"Heyy mitch" i said, melting into his arms
We talked and chatted for a bit and found ourselves in his bed, scrolling through netflix.
"Hey, this ones scary, wanna watch it?"
"Mitch it's like 3 hours long"
"Pleaseee"
"Okay Okay, but can i get into pyjamas or something?"
"Here" he jumped out of bed to his wardrobe and gave me a large blue t-shirt "Have that"
"Thanks" i smiled, and went off to change
I came back out of his bathroom in the oversized t-shirt, to find mitchell in pyjama bottoms and nothing else, abs on show and i let out a small gasp. He smirked at me
"Go on then, give us a spin" he laughed and i did just that
"It looks good on you"
I smiled and climbed back into the bed with him. I was suddenly aware of how fast my heart was beating, my head on his chest, his arm around my shoulder. I looked into his face, his perfect face that I longed to call mine and i started to speak.
"Look Mitchell there's something i've been meaning to tell you"
"No let me go first."
He sat up and grabbed my hands
"Ever since i met you i knew i liked you. The way you walked into class on your first day, confident, peng as, the way you noticed me-"
"Of course i noticed you"
"You sat beside me, you fell asleep on me... God i need to get to the point don't i? Anyway what i'm trying to say is... would you maybe.. do you want to possibly.. uh- it's- only if you want.. I love you!"
He looked at me with his puppy dog eyes and i stared at him, in shock
"Forget it" he said, clearly hurt
"I love you too."
His face lit up and his smile was so beyond wide. He looked all kinds of adorable.
"Mitch do you want to be my boyfriend?"
He sighed with relief and grabbed my face with his hands and said "yes". I pulled him into a passionate kiss and melted into his body, his hands running through my hair.
I pulled back, flopping down on his pillow laughing.
"Mitchell Harper, my boyfriend"
He stood up and grabbed me around the waist spinning me around and around and around as i squealed.
"Ella Parker, my girlfriend"
"Wow"
"Can we go official?"
"Whatever you want Mitch"
"I love you"
"I love you too"
