That Girl

Chapter 20 (filler)

*Ari's POV*

H-he made me change infront of him?! Wae?! It was so embarassing! I'm so pudgy and I haven't gotten to shave in a few days! I was so embarassed! I was suck a sickly pale too! Ugh! He had picked me up after the little incident, carrying me to the livingroom on his back. I burried my face in the back of his neck, too embarassed to show my face to the others. He set me on the edge of the couch, then turned to pick me up and sit on the couch, putting me in his lap. I curled up in his lap, hiding in his neck, he smelt great, making me forget most of my bashfulness. He had a metallic dirt smell that I actually kinda liked, I honestly didn't know how else to discribe it. He was so cuddly, making me even more calm, he could literally make me calm down by just sniffing him, if I had an anxiety attack that is. He had wrapped his arms around me tightly, cuddling me to his chest. I felt love radiate from him, all of him. I felt him press his mouth to my hair, and I felt his chest rise up high and slowly fell back down, he was smelling me too, I could tell. I had never been treated like that by anyone before, ever. I was so use to my boyfriends being distant and/or rude to me, they would either ignore me or just never show me love, so all of this was new. All of it. I couldn't hold them back anymore, I felt a tear fall, then another, and then there was a flood. Ken sat up stiffly, and looked down at me, probably feeling the tears roll down his neck, either that or my shoulders shook, but he knew. He lifted my chin, "What's wrong?" He asked, worry and concern coating his soft, quiet, voice, and an urgent look on his face. I smiled as the tears rolled, "I-I.." I hiccuped slightly, being good at being quiet when crying, then continued, "I've never been held like this.." I whispered, overwhelmed with all of the feelings that flooded my brain. He looked at me sympathetically, and frowned, "R-really?" His grip tightened, and I nodded, making him press his forehead to mine and closed his eyes. I sniffed slightly, hiccuping softly again, "I love you." I whispered softly, starig at his face through the blur of the tears. He opened his eyes staring into mine, he seemed stunned somewhat, "I-I love you too." He whispered making me smile.

*Ken's POV*

"I love you." She was so confident in how she felt, catching me off guard. I felt my heart swell with happiness as I opened my eyes to look at her, "I-I love you too." I whispered back. God, did I love her..
