Warning: This chapter contains a slightly "heated" scene and some strong language. It's kinda very important though, so I hope ya'll wont get offended.

Chapter 29 ~ Rowan

"I love you Ace." I whispered. He looked into my eyes and I felt everything inside me fall apart. He was so perfect.
"I love you too Row. More than you can imagine." He replied. Suddenly I felt his hands grip my waist and adjust me so I was sitting on his legs. One of his hands traveled to my head and he pulled me a little closer. Smiling slightly, I put my hands around his neck and ran my hand through the back of his hair. I could feel one of his hands playing with my curls.
"You're so perfect." He said. I shook my head softly, but he just smiled.
"Don't. Don't deny it." He whispered, and our faces slowly inched closer. For a few brief seconds we locked eyes and then I found my lips on his. His hand was tight on my waist and I gripped his neck, as our lips pressed harder against each other. Before I could take in what was happening, our tongues were joined in a twisted dance and I could feel the sparks and the fire around us, as a bunch of fireworks blew up in my head. My heart was pounding as we pressed closer and closer. I let my hands fall from his neck and down to the bottom of his shirt. I played with it, letting it fall through my fingers, as if asking for permission and our lips unhooked. There was a spark in his eye I had never seen before, and I felt something burst me inside me when I realized I had caused it. There was a smile on his face as I lifted his shirt off his head and immiediately he went back to pressing his lips onto mine.
For the first time in ages, I felt alive. Those two years I had spent starving myself, hiding food, throwing it away, crying over a number on the scale, and killing myself, slowly killing myself, I was so dead. I had lost the energy to live, to enjoy life. And now, with a fire flaming between us, I felt so, so alive.
I put my hands on his chest, my eyes closed. Finally, he turned slightly and layed down on the couch, pulling me with him. Then his eyes opened and our lips parted. I didn't want it to stop.
"How did I get so lucky." He whispered.

"And we literally made out." I said, almost breathless. After everything, Asa had walked me home and now I found myself squished in the laundry room calling Ashley.
"WAHT. Girl how was it!?" Ashley asked excitedly, but I could hear the hint of jelaousy in her voice.
"Amazing in every single way. Actually, I was thinking I could tell you more in person. It being winter break and all, maybe I could sleepover tomorrow? Just the two of us."
"Row you're a genius. I'll ask my mom but I'm sure she'll say yes. Just the two of us. I can't wait." I could hear that Ashley was pleased, and I was glad. I had a lot of stuff to talk to her about.
"ROWAN! SOMEONE'S AT THE DOOR FOR YOU!" Mom yelled from downstairs. I jumped in my spot and winced, rubbing the spot on my head I had hit.
"You better get that." Ashley laughed and I smiled to myself.
"Ttyl ok?"
"Mhm."
Ashley hung up and I stood up, stretching my legs. They felt limp from the uncomfortable position I had been sitting in, next to the laundry machine.
I ran down the hall and down the steps. When I looked up, at the door I saw someone I wasn't expecting to see.
Kenzie

"So, let's talk." She said, as we started down the sidewalk. Mom had been watching us at the door, smiling, so when Kenzie offered a walk I had to say yes. How did she even find out where I lived?
"Kenzie, look. I don't know you, and I don't know what you want from me." I said, exasperated.
"There's actually a lot of things we share. Or should I say, you stole from me." She said. I hated the way she was so calm. It freaked me out.
"Um, I don't steal?" I replied, not sure what she meant.
"Ashley was MY best friend. And Asa was supposed to be mine."
"WHAT!?!? First of all, you should be talking about this to Ashley. She was the one who decided to befriend me and it's TOTALLY not my fault. Was I supposed to just say "go away" when she was all nice to me? I'm sure you would do what I did in my place. And second of all, WHAT!?! ASA was supposed to be YOURS?!?" I had raised my voice drastically, because I absolutely couldn't deal with this girl.
"Yeah. He was totally into me and I was interested. He was SUPPOSED to ask me out but then little readhead anorexic showed up." I stopped dead in my tracks.
"How DARE YOU!" I shouted. My body was trembling and it took everything out of me not to slap her or start crying. Or both.
"Look Rowan, I'm just telling you the truth. You need help. You're deathly thin." She said. The calmness in her voice remained, but her green eyes were full of hatred and slyness.
"I don't need YOU telling me how to live my life. I'm doing just fine and and I'm getting help. If you need to know. But you better not tell anyone or you're gonna have to deal with my boyfriend, and that will be deep shit. And, Asa doesn't like you at all okay. If you actually thought for a second that he was interested, YOU need help. He thinks you're a selfish, greedy and rude bitch and I agree. I never want to talk to you again Kenzie. So don't even bother." I said angrily. There were tears welling up in my eyes and a small part of me felt guilty, but she deserved it. Then I ran off, leaving her stranded on the street.
