*Meriliya's POV*

The weekend goes by just like that. I'm still picturing and rewinding the time where Edward confessed that he loves me that night in my head. I still can't believe it all happened so fast. I've not exactly been avoiding Edward but yeah we've not hung out or anything since Friday. I wouldn't say I was avoiding him, there's no reason for me to but I just needed some time to think about all this and my feelings because I do know that I do feel something when it comes to him. And it's not just feelings, it's something indescribable. 

I step out of the shower and look at the steamed mirror. I wipe it with my hand and finally look at myself. I run my hands through my hair and let it air dry pulling my makeup pouch out and then just sigh and put it back in  the drawer. He says I don't need it anyway. I dry myself up and choose a three quarter dress that has a slit starting above my knee and the sleeves are short frills that rest on my shoulders. I run my hands through my hair again and grab my denim jacket and phone and purse and slip into my white converse. 

I'm pulling up onto his driveway, parking my car in a corner. I sigh and get out of my car, locking it and I  walk towards the door and ring the bell. It didn't even take seconds before I see him standing there in front of me. 

"Hey" I smile and he hugs me and then lets me inside. It's quiet and everyone seems to be asleep or maybe in their rooms doing their own thing. "Is everybody sleeping?" I ask him, keeping my voice as low as possible. 

"Yeah I think so" his raspy voice says. 

"How was your day?" I ask just as he asks me, 

"Are you avoiding me?" I sigh. Good question. No actually. I realise I've been telling that to myself because when I look at him he's looking at me, waiting for my response. 

"No. Why am I here then?" I ask him, more like tell him. He nods to himself before he goes to the kitchen and comes back with a bottle of pringle's and something that appears to be coffee or chocolate milk? 

"Let's go upstairs." He says already heading for the stairs. I follow behind and he opens the door to his room and lets me in. He closes the door behind and even locks it and puts down the stuff he brought on his table and sits on his bed patting the space next to him. I sit next to him and just look around his room again like the first time I came here. 

"Have you thought about- you know what I said?" He breaks the silence. 

"I've been thinking about it and I'm still-"

"That's ok. I don't want to push you. I'm sorry if I came across like that-'' I placed my lips on his, surprising myself with my sudden boldness. He pulls me towards him by my waist, basically letting me sit on his lap. My hands are lost in his hair, probably tangling them. He falls back on the bed and in a matter of seconds I'm on the bed and he's on top of me holding himself up with his hands. He trails kisses from the edge of my mouth to my jawline down and then to my neck. He kisses harder on a spot making me let out a slow moan. There's probably going to be a pink spot there. 

We just kiss each other for what feels like a good hour or even more because by the time we fall flat in the bed we're both panting hard. We lay in silence just staring at thin air while reviving back to our normal breathing. 

"Baby-I," I turned to face him. "I'm falling so much for you and I know you can see that- I can barely go a day without seeing you or hearing your voice. Maybe you don't feel that way towards me but I do. So much." He says

"I'm not saying I don't feel anything towards you- don't ever think that. I do have strong feelings for you but I just need some time to think a little Eddie-" I say and he nods.
