CHAPTER 18

🌜

VALINCIA

"That was a close one." I mumble closing the front door running back up to my room. Billie just left finally giving me a chance to check the closet.

I love billies company and all but she could've came at any time but this one.

"Dude imagine if she had opened the closet" Dorian comes out of the closet straightening his clothes. "The whole surprise would have been ruined."

"She would've defiantly thought I was a creep or some shit." He laughs plopping himself on my bed.

For the last couple of days I've been planning out the perfect date to ask billie to be my girlfriend. Yes we've only been on one date but I can't wait any longer.

"You think she'll like it?" I take everything out of my closet sighing. "Like it? Girl she's going to love it, I bet she'll start crying."

Most likely yes

"I know but what if she backs out or what if I'm moving to fast." I sit by Dorian groaning. He brings me into his arms hugging me tightly.

"You two like each other a lot, I can tell, and if she rejects cause you're moving too fast then wait for her but you gotta stop stressing." We stay there for a few minutes before I pull apart.

I don't know what I would do without my brothers.

"I'm gonna go now, have fun!" He leaves the room and I start taking more paper out.

I'm making 365 origami hearts.

I was just going to buy her a gift but I wanted to also make her something to show her how special she was to me. Hand made gifts just feel more thoughtful.

I also got her a necklace with her birthday moon phase on it.

Anyways each heart has a little note in it saying something that I like about billie. I've already made 200 of them in the last few days.

When billie had came, I had all the hearts spread out on the floor organized by color, and when Dorian told me she was here I panicked.

So I rushed and put as much as I could under my bed and told Dorain to put the rest in the closet.

When billie dragged me to my room I was worried that Dorian wouldn't have put everything away. Which he did but that dumbass didn't leave the room.

I could see his shadow the entire time we were there we, which only made me even more worried.

That's whatever though, I start folding more hearts until my hands give out.

This shit hurts

I've got 10 paper cuts, a small blister, and a cramping hand.

This better be worth it

I start writing random things on the red hearts first. "I love the face you make when your concentrated (it is very cute btw)- love Val<3"

"I love your face freckles STOP HIDING THEM FROM MEEEE!- yours truly"

"One word- gorgeous, pretty, BEAUTIFUL ( that was 3 words whatever)- Love, me"

"I love you for you"

Wait a damn minute-

I love billie.

I think we already know that

I'm in love, the fuck?

Yes we get it-
