Cadence's POV





She pulled away quickly from me and said, "I can't do this. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have kissed you back."

My eyes widened in shock.

"What?" I stood up, "You're not kidding, right?" I asked, confused as hell as to why she was reacting like this after she had just confessed to me, "You can't be serious right now."

She had a guilty expression and shook her head.

This is what I feared most.

"I... I'll be in my sister's room. You can stay here for the night," then she was out the door, leaving me in her room all alone, confused and hurt.

I just stared at the wall for minutes as the feeling overwhelmed me until I burst into tears...

I opened my eyes as I sucked in a knife-like breath. I sat up abruptly, glanced at the clock, and saw it was 7 in the morning. I looked at the window when I heard it was pouring outside, it was kind of dark.


Was that all... a dream? Did I get rejected in my dream?


Then I realized that... This isn't my room. My heart skipped a beat as I turned slowly to my side only to see Allison sleeping peacefully.


I felt my face begin to heat up as the memories from last night came flooding back in, resurfacing every kiss we had. I facepalmed out of embarrassment... But not going to lie, she is a good kisser. Nothing happened beyond that though. Not yet at least.


Cadence, stop. Shut it and go back to sleep.


I took a deep breath then I laid back down, while my heart is still running laps. I tried going back to sleep but it was no use.


I faced her, admiring her side profile. Her eyelashes were long, her nose was perfect, and her lips are...


How can someone be so pretty even when they're sleeping?


I was internally screaming. She's just so pretty, it hurts. I don't know if I want to look like her or date her.


Oh, right. She's not my girlfriend yet. It's still not official without the label, right?


Should I ask her? Or are we even dating yet? Just because we made out doesn't mean it's official yet, right?


What if we end up like my last relationship?


My mind was filled with so many What-ifs. But then suddenly, it immediately went blank as I felt her arm slid onto my waist, unconsciously pulling me close to her.


I died dead. 



I panicked. I wanted to scream. My face was so red, and I could barely even breathe. I could even hear my own heart beating.


I gulped as I saw her wake up slowly, then her gaze focused on me and she said, "Good morning."


Her morning voice was so iehfksadjekhdsa


"Good morning," I tried not to stutter. She smiled.



She asked, "What time is it?"



"It's uh..." I panicked again, glanced at the clock, "It's a quarter to 8, yes," I sat up quickly.
