Song of chapter: Latch by Disclosure ft. Sam Smith

   I wake up to birds cherping. I suddenly feel someone shift next to me. I look to see it was Valerie. Oh crap. We fell asleep while watching the movie. I look at her peaceful, beautiful face. I won't lie, she is really cute when she sleeps. I sound like a creeper. I look at the time.

9:18

   I guess I should wake her up. I place my hand on her shoulder and shake her. I shake a little, but she didn't move. I shaker her a bit harder. She finally woke up. She see's me and smiles, but once she figured out where she was, she jumped to look around. "Did we fall alseep while watching the movie? I totally forgot I was even here!" she exclaimed.

   "It's okay. Yeah, we both fell asleep without knowing it. Do you want to contact your mom to let her know that you are here?" I ask. She nods her head and gets her phone out. She starts typing away. Once she was done, she set her phone on the floor and sighed.

   "I'm sorry. I didn't mean for this to happen!" she huffed.

   "Hey, it's totally cool! I'm kinda glad you stayed the night. Means we might get to hang out more, and that is totally all right with me!" I smirk. She smiles and giggles. It's so cute.

   "I'm glad too," she states. "Is it okay that I use your restroom?" I chuckle.

   "Yes, you may," I say. "It's down hall to the left."

   "Thank you," she says. She stands up and heads out of the room.

   Why am I thinking these thoughts? Peaceful, beautiful face. Her giggle is so cute! Why do I think this. I mean, it's normal to say that to one of your best friends right? The thing is, I have been thinking these things for a while now. My heart skips a beat when I talk to her. When ever she hugs or holds my hand, I feel electricity shoot through me. It's not normal to feel this way. The only time I have felt this way was when I was with Renne. Does this mean I sorta like Valerie? I mean, she is specail. She is one of the best girls, apart from Emma, I have ever met. Emma is just like a sister to me. Valerie, I don't think she is like a sister to me. It's something more. Something different. It's a good feeling of different. I haven't felt think is a long time. Maybe I'm imagining things. Maybe my feelings are just playing with me.

   My thoughts get interuped by Valerie's voice. "Are you okay?" I look at her. My heart goes faster.

   "Yeah, I'm totally fine! Do you want breakfast?" I ask while standing up.

   "Yeah sure! Let me check my phone, and I'll be down in a minute," she answers. I nod and stand up. I quickly run down the stairs to start breakfast.

   Again, my heart was beating faster when she walked in the room. I need to get a hold of myself.

   I get out a pan and start making pancakes.

   We finished breakfast, and we are now sitting on the couch. "Again, we never finished our get to know you game," I say. We start laughing at our stupidity.

   "Yeah, I guess we didn't," she giggled.

   "Who's turn was it?" I ask. She shruggs her shoulders and smiles. "Okay, I guess I'll just go. What is your favorite book?" She thinks a seconds before answering.

   "Hourglass Door by Lisa Mangum. It's such a good book! Ever heard of it?" she wonders. I shake my head no. "No? Okay. Well, it's about a girl names Abby who falls in love with a boy names Dante, who is a time traveler. It's not a normal love story trust me. It's really good! My name is in it, so it makes it even better!" she exclaimes.

   "Sounds very interesting."

   "Oh, it is. I guess it's my turn. Favorite type of music?" she questions.

   "Rock. All time favorite," I answer with pride. She nods her head. "Do you ever wish you could listen to music?"

   "I do. I can feel the beat through the vivbration of my car or my headphones. Even though I can't hear the words, I can feel the beat. I have listened to a full song full though! My mom was taking me to a doctor to get cochlear implant, but I didn't. I got to hear my own voice and my favorite song. I listened to Come And Get Your Love by Redbone. It's still my favorite song to this day," she explains.

   "Wow, that's amazing. How come you didn't get a cochlear implant?" I ask.

   "I don't know. Just didn't want one, I guess," she answers. I nod my head. "Anyway, my turn..."

   We continued to play the game. I learned so much about her! She is so interesting! I learned that she played soccor when she was little. She started leanred sign lanuage when she was two. I even got to learn some sign lanuage. I learned how to say my name and how to say good morning. It's so cool.

   It's now twelve o'clock, and Valerie has to go. "I had a nice time, Logan. Thank you for letting me stay. It was a wonderful day," she smiled.

   "I'm glad you had a good time. I know I had a fantastic time," I said. She smiles bigger and gives me a hug. My heart was going a million miles an hour. I didn't want to let go. I wanted to stay like this forever. I wanted to hold her and never let her go. I want to stay in this embrace. If I could stay in her arms forever, I would. I feel safe and warm in her arms. I feel safe haven.

   Sadly she pulls away. I smile down to her. She smiles wider. I then lean in and kiss her cheek. She kissed mine, so it's okay to kiss her cheek as well. She blushed really hard. "Goodbye, Logan," she says.

   "Later, Val. I'll text you later okay?" I question.

   "Yeah, definetly," she says. She gives me one last hug and heads out the door. Her mom came to pick her up. As soon as she left, I start to question my feelings for her.

   Do I like Valerie more than a friend?
