I feel a lot more happy around you - Aiden/Ashlyn

It was late at night.

Actually, it was early in the morning, but who cares?

Ashlyn and Aiden were sitting in Ashlyn's room, just talking about, anything that they found interesting.

In fact, the things they were talking about made them forget about being in a dangerous world every night.

Sure they were stupid topics, but it was nice.

Especially when it's with your crush.

Ashlyn's P.O.V

"Okay, okay, okay." I interrupt Aiden's random tangent on his 2017 Pokémon faze.

"If I where a chip flavor, what flavor?..." I stare at him waiting for the answer, hopefully it's not something stupid like those barbecue Chi-

"Fritos, but the BBQ twist ones" I stare at him, I feel my face contorted into one of disgust. " those are absolutely horrid. Why?" I lean into my knees a little more,

For some reason we were both sitting on my floor, with are backs pressed against my bed.

"Because sometimes you're sweet and sometimes you're sour—oh my god you're a sour patch kid! I loooove the tropical flavor ones especially the Pineapple!!"

I tune out what he's saying, not only because it's stupid but for some reason he just looks so.. I would say handsome, but that's not the right word— not cute, because that's to elementary.

Whatever!

He seems really nice to look at right now. I can feel my face lightly heat up.

I don't normally act like this. And I think it's so stupid that I do around him, I'm constantly catching myself smiling, or suppressing an annoying giggle when he says something stupid. It's so very frustrating, but it's so great all at once. It's to difficult to explain!

Sometimes I wonder if he feels the same, but I don't want to judge somebody's feelings off their actions.

I'm in my own little word for a little until I realize he put his head onto the top of mine.

"Aiden"

"Mhm" he slightly responds,

"What are you doing?" I feel a small, almost invisible smile pull at my face.

"I'm resting my eyes, obviously" yeah sure he is.

We sat a little like this, I think I started to drift off to sleep but caught myself a couple of times, maybe it didn't help that because of his position I was forced to lay on his shoulder.

"Ash" his voice surprises me for a second, "yeah?" My voice was a lot quieter, I don't know if that was intentional of me or not, maybe it's just because I feel so tire-

"I think I like you a lot."

My mind goes blank. I don't even realize he's said anything until a couple seconds later, swallowing the lump in my throat I lightly respond,

"How much is a lot..?" Suddenly I feel very impatient for his response.

"More than a friend a lot." He says slowly, almost in a whisper. It felt very unlike the Aiden I know, but none the less it was him.

I know I've been silent for a while, and I don't mean to be. I just don't know how to respond to this, I mean I could play it off as I'm sleeping if I wanted to, but I wouldn't do that to him.

Taking my hand, I extend my pinky out and lightly rest my hand on the top of his knuckles. He relaxes a little next to me, I didn't even notice how stiff he felt the whole time.

He captures my hand in his, interlocking are fingers. I find myself leaning into him more.

I take in a small breath, as if what I might say will alter the rest of my world,

And maybe it will.

"I think I like you a lot too."

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I'm sorry that I've done a lot of them lately, I just have a huge Aidelyn brain rot rn and I NEED to get these cuties down and show the world🤭
