Kelsey's POV
As the words left Nick's mouth, I felt my heart stop for a second, then speed up. I couldn't believe he actually said that.
Nick was still smiling at me when he continued to speak.
"It's like, when you showed up, I didn't think about Jordan anymore. All I wanted to do was be around you. At first, I just liked being around you, Karmen, and Gatsby. But then, it turned out to be that I just liked spending time with you. And, I didn't know why, until...." he paused.
"Until I saw how upset you got and how bad I felt after Jordan kissed me. That was when I knew that I absolutely and undeniably loved you."
To say I was shocked would be an understatement. I was shocked, surprised, and taken aback. But, most of all, I was happy.
As soon as I finally got my breathing in check, I smiled at Nick. I then got up and sat next to him. Finally, I pulled him into a hug. He immediately hugged me back.
"So, does this mean you feel the same way?" Nick asked nervously while still holding me.
I laughed and pulled back a little to look at him.
"Absolutely."

Awhile passed since the Nelsey ship sailed. lol.
I was still at Nick's, obviously. He just admitted his love for me, I couldn't just leave him hanging.
Nick gently stroked my hair as I layed my head in his lap. After a while, I looked up at him.
As I got lost in his blue orbs, I thought of all the moments I spent with him. From the first hug we shared when we first met, (or, to Nick, when we met again after a really long time), to the laughs we had together in the ice rink a few weeks ago. In every memory I had of us, I had a smile on my face.
My thoughts slowly drifted away as I noticed him smiling down at me. I smile back and ask, "What?"
He chuckles and shakes his head. "Nothing, you're just so.....you." he says. I give him a funny look and laugh. "Is that a good thing?"
His smile widens. "It's a great thing." I slowly raise my head so I'm eye level with him.
"Well, good." I whisper. He chuckles again. And from there, Nick leans forward and connects our lips, adding to the memories I have of us together with me smiling.
Our first kiss.

Karmen's POV
When Kelsey left, Gatsby sat right beside me. "What were you and Kelsey talking about?" He said with a smile.
"Nothing really. We were just doing a Karmen and Keksey thing." It was the truth. We just do our thing, it doesn't really have a name.
----------------------------------------------------
Me and Gatsby sat there for what felt like hours, yet it was really just like 30 minutes. But when I'm with Gatsby time is nothing. I love every moment we share together. All I have to do is look into his eyes and I get lost.
Suddenly he kiss me, again. He wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me closer. He pulled away, witch felt like way to quickly.
He leaned his forehead against mine.
I closed my eyes and listened to the silence surrounding us.
Suddenly, he spoke. "Darling.......I don't know what I'm doing." His voice is quiet and soft. I feel my heart quake.
I open my mouth to speak but he stops me. "I don't love her." This caused my eyes to open abruptly.
"I thought I did, but I don't." He stares down at me intently.
"So, what now?" I ask carefully.
He smiles at me. A heart-warming, charming, make your insides swirl smile.
"I find someone else to love." he says looking me straight in the eyes. I smiled from ear to ear and pulled him in for another kiss. I could feel him smiling the whole time.
And that was the day I fell completely in love with Jay Gatsby.
