My heart is pounding

Oops! This image does not follow our content guidelines. To continue publishing, please remove it or upload a different image.

My heart is pounding. My cheeks are flushed. Why are my cheeks burning? Is it supposed to hurt when you confess your undying love for your best friend? No? I didn't think so. So they why the fuck are my cheeks burning! Maybe I fucked up. Maybe she won't want to see me again. Maybe going to see her is a bad idea.

I start walking down the corridor, trying to keep an eye out for any danger but my thoughts keep distracting me, trying to convince me to turn around. Run for my life and don't look back. I can even hear Aspen. Get out of my head Aspen. I don't want you there. Shake my head, trying to clear it of any thoughts, but I can still hear her voice. I turn the corner and I can hear Aspen's voice, talking to someone. I peer my head around to see who it is. Bella? What is she doing here?

I don't know why but I stop and listen to the conversation. Not that I care but a part of me feels like something happened.

"Here you go," Bella says as she hands something to Aspen.

"Thanks I guess. You really didn't have to."

"No no it's okay. Ace made me give it to you so, I kinda had to. Enjoy the keys to your new office Agent Aspen." Bella says with a light chuckle but Aspen didn't budge. "Are you okay?" she says as she puts her hand on Aspen's arm.

"Yeah I'm fine. I'm all good. I'm happy. I'm -"

"One more and I'll believe you." Aspen sighs and starts to walk towards the wall to sit down.

''I am fine, it's just a little overwhelming. We've been through so much shit. Me and Ivy having a weird friend with benefits thing wait what?, Ivy going on this mission, Ivy getting shot and now me stopping things with her. I just feel like the world is against me for some stupid fucked up reason''. Aspen puts her head in her hands as Bella sits down next to her putting her hand on her shoulder.

''You know?'' Bella starts ''You're basically the only person that I like at REPS. You make everyday new and exciting just by the thought that I'm going to see you. And when I don't see you that's just like such a shit day for me. But you make it better like you always do. Your personality, the way you make me laugh and" Bella pauses "Your stupid fucking hot" Damn she likes her. Who would have thought.

"You really mean that?"

"Well yeah! You got great boobs and everything" Bella says.

Too much information, Bella.

"No really, you are really beautiful and have such a good heart. And I really like you." Bella says as she stares into Aspen eyes entirely enchanted.

"I kinda feel the same way, ever since that night on the phone" Aspen says, smiling brightly. They both lean towards each other and their lips connect but as they start to kiss, I look away cause ew. I don't really wanna see that right now where the only person I wanna kiss may not even feel the same way. I then hear Aspen say "But we can't rush into anything right now. I'm still going through some things."
