Friends To Lovers

Part 5

I'm sorry Cait I really am I promise you the second you need me I'll be here. I walk over to my best friend who's sitting up in bed with puffy red eyes and a couple tears still falling, I immediately get under the covers and pull her into my side holding her as close as I can not wanting to let her go, not wanting to mess this up. "Try and get some sleep Cait, we'll stay in tomorrow and have a movie day just us and you can tell me about everything that's been on your mind lately okay?" I see her eyes struggling to stay open 10 minutes later she's asleep in my arms. My god could I get use to this. My alarm goes off i reach over quickly trying not to wake Cait up but I was to late, she looks up and gives me a warm smile "Morning Cait, you hungry? I was gonna go downstairs and cook us some breakfast what do you want? Eggs, pancakes, smoothie?"

"Morning chick, I'll have some eggs please. I'll come down and help you" I start to get out of bed before Katie playfully pushes me back "nah uh, you'll stay right here and I'll be back In 10 with your food I wanna make it up to you for me being such a shitty friend when you needed me the most" I watch at she jumps out of bed and walks towards my door opening it and going downstairs. I hear her banging around downstairs next thing I know she's rubbing my arm trying to wake me up. Wait, why do I have butterflies? She's literally just rubbed my arm what's going through your head I think to myself my cheeks go a little red hopefully Katie doesn't notice "Thanks Katie, this looks delicious I really appreciate you doing this for me and I know how sorry you are for lately, you don't have to do anything else for me just be there when i need you"

"This is the least I can do Cait, I know I really messed up not being there for you when you needed me the most and I know you forgive me but I still want to make it up to you. There's a reason I have been so distant lately and I will tell you eventually I just don't think now is the right time." All of a sudden I'm pushed onto my back and Cait's arms are around my waist holding me as close as she can "Thanks chick, I want you to know you can tell me anything I'm here for you always. I love you" Butterflies is what I feel in my stomach hearing her say those 3 words and I know it's not in the way I want but hopefully someday soon I'll be able to tell her how I really feel and those 3 words will be in the way I want.

Lately I've been feeling these weird feelings around Katie and I think that's why it hurt so much when she distanced herself from me, when we touch hands accidentally or she hugs me my whole stomach erupts with butterflies. I don't know if she feels the same but I have to tell her soon I don't know how much longer I can go on acting like I'm not feeling these things for her, my Katie.
