Love Crime

Falling In Love

Classes were once again cancelled for the day, so I decided to go back to my dorm and pack up everything. As I was packing Hester came in and started to get her stuff ready to move in the house as well.

"So....last night, I saw that you weren't scared. You didn't even scream, how come?" Hester asked me all weird like as she walked right up next to me as I put some books in one of the boxes.

"Yeah because I wasn't scared" I say rolling my eyes

"How come?" She asked all curious and tilt her head

"Because It wasn't scare at all. Trust me Hester I have seen worse" I say looking her right in the eyes. "I believe you on that" She said and stared at me more than walked back over to her side grabbing a packed box and leaving the room. My guess to head to the house. I pulled out my phone and texted Boone seeing if he wanted to come over which he said of course. I waited a good 20 minutes until there was a knock on the door.

As I open the door for him, he gave a quick kiss on my lips and walked in the door. When I turned around he wrapped his arms around my waist as I placed my hands on his chest and looked up at him.

"How has your day been?" He asked me

"Well, now that your here it's a lot better. But when I got to the house it was just chaotic" I say looking over to where the boxes were, Boone followed my eyes to see half of my stuff being packed.

"You're leaving?" He asked me and I could hear the sadness in his voice

"Just moving into the house well being forced to by Dean Munsch and Gigi" I say as I walked over to put more stuff away.

"Here let me help" He said he put some more books away for me. Him and I talked and laughed our asses off as we packed up. After an hour we were finally finished. As I placed the last box by the door, I turned around to see Boone staring at me with a sided grin on his face

"What? do I have something on my face?" I asked him with a chuckle as I stood right in front of him

"No. Your just beautiful. Like extremely beautiful" He said putting a piece of my hair behind my ear. My cheeks turned red as he said that and as it did, his grin turned into a bright smile that I just love. wait... love? what am I thinking?

"I love seeing you blush" He said which just made me blush even more

"Oh but I'm not blushing" I joked

"Your not" He said joking as he wrapped his arms around me and me wrapping my arms around his neck "Because it looks like you are and maybe it's from how incredibly hot I am" He add which made me laugh

"You are full of yourself" I say continue to laugh

"Well did anyone ever tell you darling. That's the best part about me" He said but I rolled my eyes and shook my head

"No, it's not" I say and Boone looked shocked that I said that "There is more to you than meets the eye and I know that and sooner or later people will start to see" I tell him and he just looked at me all shocked that I said that

"Really?" He asked

"Of course" I say. He smiled at me even more and just stared at me more. He opened his mouth but than closed it like he was thinking about wanting to tell me something.

"What going through that mind of yours?" I asked him

"I think I'm in love with you" He said and when I heard him say those words my eyes widen and I gasp as he just stared at me more in the eyes

"Wh--what did---what did you just say? You what?" I stuttered

"I'm in love with you Ariella" He said but this time I could hear the seriousness in his voice and I see in his eyes he was for sure telling me the truth I didn't have to hear his heart for that. As I was seeing this, I realized that I haven't said anything. Boone unwrapped his arms from my waist and started to back up.

He started to shake his head "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said anything. I'll go and I'll see you later." He said as he headed for the door

"Boone wait-" I start to say but it was to late he had already left. I felt my heart sink and I knew in that moment that I was in love with him. I'm in love with Boone and it didn't matter how long I knew him. My mother always told me love doesn't have a time stamp and that it can just sneak up on you and that's what happened.

"I'm in love with you too" I whisper feeling my eyes started to fill with water.
