"Well I'm single" he says and my eyes widened "Zion!" I say "what?" He ask "you said don't break up with her and I didn't , she broke up with me" he walks towards me "okay but still" I say "but still what?" He ask "how could you move on so fast , it's been like 1 minute" I say

"I loved Delilah I did and care about her but It's you" he says "it's like when there's there's no pepperoni pizza but you'll get cheese 'cause cheese is amazing and all but then they bring pepperoni pizza back on and you're like oh yeah I need that one back" he says

"don't compare me to pepperoni pizza" I tell him "my bad" he apologizes "but you get what I'm saying" he ask "sadly" I answer "just like I didn't expect you to just fall outta love with me , I didn't either" he says "but it's different"

I sit down as he moves closer to the couch "how so?" He ask "cause you are the one that left , what don't you get?!" I question "I was so in love and you just got up and left" I feel like I been saying this for so long. "I didn't move on , you did" I point at him "so it's different" I prove my point

"Okay maybe you're right" he says "but look , we are both single and We feel the same way" he points between us "what's holding you back?" He ask
"Delilah? Or what?" he ask another question "yes and all of it" I start "i feel bad that you are just willing to move on so damn fast" I tell him

"And I still don't forgive you for what you did" I mumble and he sighs "what do I have to do to make you forgive me?" He ask "nothing just I don't know , give me time" I say "I can't jump back into this relationships when I'm second guessing you"

He finally sits down "I'll wait" he tells me "I really will" he admits. We look at each other "and what if I make you wait another 5 years" I joke or I think I am "well then I'll see you in five years" he smiles "no way, you can't wait that long" I shake My head
"For you , I will"

He places his hand on the side of my thigh. Inner thigh I guess you can say. "That's a long time" I say "yeah I know" he says "gotta do what you gotta do" he shrugs and I giggle lightly. "Delilah does wanna talk in person" he says "yeah, I understand"

I look at the time and it's already 8:31. I'm tired seems so early though. "I'm gonna head to be room" I tell him and stand up "am i coming" he ask "I don't know" I answer before I do hear him follow me upstairs and into my room "I like your room" he looks around "where's our memories at?"

I sit on my bed "in boxes and stuff" I say before covering myself with my blanket and lay down.
He just stands there at the end of my bed.
"So" he says and I close my eyes "what?" I ask
Then I feel him get onto my bed.

I open my eyes to see him laying there with chin resting on the palm of his hand "what are you doing" I ask "am I sleeping here or what?" He ask "up to you" I whisper "no it's up to you , this is your house" he says "whatever you want" I say

"You know I want to , but it's not my decision" he tells me "if you want me to go I'll go" I just can't help but smile as we look into each other's eyes making him smile also. "I don't really want you to go" I say "oh for real" he smirks

"You can stay" I make up my mind "don't gotta tell me twice , luckily I got these sweatpants on , already comfortable" he says. "But I'm taking this shirt off" he tells me "and I know it's gonna be hard but try not to stare to much Tina" he jokes "oh shut up" I shake my head as he removes his shirt and imma still stare

"didn't I see not to much" He lays down and I Smile "it was only 2 seconds" I admit "I don't blame you" he looks over and says as I roll my eyes
I move over closer to him before slowly putting my head chest and he waste no time wrapping
his arms around me.

"This feels good" he says "kinda like ..... home" he adds. "I get homesick especially after my family moved back down to Canada" he starts "and nothing usually gives me that home feeling"  as he makes shapes with his finger nail on my lower back. "You give me that feeling"

He's making it hard to make him wait long. Of course I wouldn't make him wait no 5 years now. "And I love you" he finishes and I take a deep breath. "Yeah I guess ..... I love you too" I say
"No you don't guess , you do" he says

I look up at him "I do" I whisper and then I feel his lips on mine causing us to share a kiss that feels almost magical like there's butterflies having a party in my stomach. Its a hate love feeling.

We break apart and I lay my head back down "goodnight" I tell him "Goodnight Val"
