Chapter 55 - Milton Keynes

Madeline's POV

I heard what leah said and i had that butterfly feeling in my stomach again, i've only ever truly felt that with leah. I've only just now realized it. Leah was obviously beautiful, an amazing football player, and an amazing human being. Seeing her now and remembering how i used to think about her in the beginning made me realize how wrong I was. 

I've realized how far we've come from her hating my guts to her getting a tattoo because of me. There was obviously still some issues we were gonna have to take care of but i couldn't stop thinking of how much I love this girl. I know we are just friends but i couldn't shake that feeling away. 

Never in my life would i think i'd be here.

"That's really sweet of you..." i said. 

Leah gave me a smile, her bright blue eyes stared into mine.

"Do you want to come with me?" i blurted out, staring straight at her. 

"Uhm...where exactly..." leah asked, a tiny smile appearing on her face. 

"Texas?" i said hesitantly.

Texas wasn't the greatest state in the United States, so i wasn't sure if she would want to go with me.

"Y-Yeah.." leah nodded, she stuttered at first so i could tell she probably wasn't on board completely. 

"Leah, we don't have too...I was only offering if you wanted to..." i said.

"No- i do wanna go..i just...i was wondering if you wanted me to go...i mean we're going to be around your family. I know how they are, i wouldn't want to create any problems..." leah said.

"I know we're going to be around my family, but we're going for Charles. Not for my parents." i shook my head. 

"Okay then...i don't think i've ever been to Texas before so...are you gonna show me around?" leah sent me a smile.

"I'm sorry but...don't get too excited. Houston isn't all that." i said. 

Leah's smile dropped and she furrowed her eyebrows. "Don't talk about your town like that..." leah scoffed.

"It's a city, but it really is just plain." i smiled. 

"Mm...how about this..." leah began. "...You come with me, this weekend to Milton Keynes...to visit my mum...and i'll go to Texas with you." leah suggested. "You can come see where i grew up...and i can see where you grew up." leah smiled at me.

"Okay. Deal." i said.

"Deal...but just so you know, i would've gone to texas with you either way." leah nudged me. 

"Good to know..." i smiled.

"So...tomorrow night?" leah raised an eyebrow. 

"We're leaving tomorrow night?" i asked.

"Yeah, let me call mum...." leah pulled her phone out. 

"I need to go pack- how many days are we staying?" i stood up and looked at leah.

Leah's blue eyes shot up at me from her phone. "Madeline." leah smiled. "Calm down. We're not leaving till tomorrow night...we have all day tomorrow to pack."
