Y/N
"This is the best part of the show. It never fails to make me laugh." Gavin points at the tv, laughing his head off.
For the past few day, you have realised that you're kind of developing a small crush on him. Just a small one, and you really want to tell him, but you don't know how to.
You're thinking of telling him straight up or at least ask him if he feels anything for you, but small problem, he has a girlfriend.
You heave a shaky sigh in and just ask him to get it over and done with. "On a scale of one to ten, how drunk are you right now?"
He steals a quick glance at you before turning off the tv and giving you his full attention.
"I'd say a four, why?" He stuffs his face with some of the popcorn you guys made earlier. "You also a bit drunk now?
"I'm stable." You tell him, fidgeting with your fingers as you keep your eyes locked onto them.
He puts his hand over yours and gives you a worried look. "Why'd you ask?"
You gulp down hard as you try to think of the right words to say and you slowly start to feel the air running thin around you.
"I just wanna ask something."
He leans back on the couch and stares up at the ceiling. "Yeah, and what's that?"
"Your girlfriend." You start off, but end up pausing for a little bit.
You shake your head slightly and he only gives you more of a worried look.
"What about her?"
"No, it's stupid. Forget that I said anything."
You try to get up from the couch and leave his house, but his hand catches your arm and you wish that you could've ran faster out of there.
"I can't really forget because you already did say something about it so I would like for you to continue."
"No, it's nothing." You try assure him even though you're not looking at him.
He gently tugs at your arm and pulls you back down onto the couch, but you keep your gaze at anything, but him and he whispers.
"Tell me."
"Don't say I didn't warn you." You start off and he lets go of your arm. "Do you actually like or love her?"
You turn your head slightly so you can see how he's taking the straight forward question.
He looked a bit taken back by your sudden question, but you did warn him.
"You want the truth?" He asks and you nod slowly even though you're scared to hear his answer. "I don't like or love her."
You furrow your brows and press on. "Why are you with her then?"
"Why do you think?" He asks and runs a frustrated hand through his slick black hair."I can't get out of the damn relationship because of my parents and I don't need them to flip on me."
"Can't you like talk to them or something?" You ask him. "Compromise with both of them?"
"You think it's that easy, huh?"
"I'm not saying it is." You explain, "I know it's not, but I just thought it could be."
"Y/N, if I had the choice to leave her and her chaotic family then I would take it and run for the damn hills."
"Where would you go to?"
After you ask the question, he started to think about his answer. "Some place that I'm actually wanted."
"Your parents don't want you?"
"It's not like they don't want me, but I want to make my own decisions. I want to choose my own path in life without having to ask them permission every time."
"Date anyone you want." You add in and he hums in agreement.
"Exactly. I could have it so easy, but I don't and I don't understand why my parents think this is alright for them to do."
"Do you know?" You ask out loud.
"Do I know what?"
"Do you know who you would date if you had the chance to?" You ask in a more confident tone.
He nods his head and answers. "I do know."
"Who?" You barely got the word to slip past your lips, but you're happy that you did.
He took another moment to pause and think about his answer. It felt like he was taking a whole year just to answer.
"You. I'd choose you."
Your eyes go huge and you almost choke on air as his words sink into your mind.
You chuckle slightly. "Nah, you're playing with me."
"I'm not. I'm being dead serious."
"No, you're joking." You deny, "Right?"
"You want me to lie to you and say that I am joking because if you want me to then I will." He said confidently before crashing his lips onto you.
He totally caught you off guard, but you didn't hesitate to kiss him back. Your arms went around his neck and his went around your waist, pulling you even closer to him.
