Ashlyn POV:

You have got to be kidding me right now.

How did I get put in this embarrassing situation?

"WHAT?!", Taylor screamed in my face. I cringed at the loud noise and immediately backed up, already regretting telling her. I knew I should have just kept this to myself. I knew she couldn't keep a secret but she's also one of my best friends so I couldn't leave her in the dark

"You like WHO?!"

"Taylor kindly shut up. The boys are just outside this room, plus it's not a big deal", I said while slapping my hand over her mouth.

"Ash, honey, this IS a BIG DEAL! You have a crush on HIM of all people. I knew you secretly liked him!", Taylor proclaimed while winking at me, looking proud.

Did she just wink at me?

I groaned and fell back on the couch in the living room, wishing the ground would just swallow me up whole.

Why did it have to be him?

I mean, how could it be him?

Aiden is the most psychotic, energetic boy I know and I have a stupid crush on him? That makes no sense, to me at-least.

However, every time he looks and smiles at me, it makes me feel weird and a little giddy.

Every touch from him, tingles and sends shivers down my spine. It's odd though because I never want to move away from his touch and parts of me even enjoys it.

Ew. What did I just say? I'm about to make myself sick.

However, there's always this thought in the back of my mind saying, "what if he likes you back"? "What if he reacts to the same why to my touch, as I do his"?

Pulling me away from my thoughts, I feel two arms snake around my waist. I immediately turn around, and come face to face with two beautiful red eyes staring at my dark green ones.

I felt my face begin to heat up and knew I had to have the face of a tomato right now.

"Aiden, Get off me!", I yelled at him, struggling to get out of his surprisingly strong grip. I knew he was strong but I didn't think this strong.

"No"

"YES!"

"Nope"

"Aiden, I swear if you don't move this instant-"

"Why should I? Plus, you look cute when you're in my arms like this."

I didn't think my face could get any more red than it already was. Desperate, I turned to Taylor for help, but she looked like she was enjoying this nightmare I was in.

Smirking, she got up, winked at me again, and left telling us to have fun.

Wait. What's that supposed to mean?

Whatever I don't have time to think about that.

"Aiden, why won't you just let me go?", I said exasperated with this situation.

"Because I wanted to see you"

I met his eyes and saw that he was being genuine and it made me feel some sort of way that I didn't know if I liked or not.

I sighed, knowing there's no way out of this situation.

"Ok, fine you win. Just bring us to the couch so I can lay down."

Excited, Aiden immediately brought us to the couch and layed me on top of him.

OH.
MY .
GOSH.

This cannot be happening right now.

I cannot believe this is happening.

Trying to get comfortable, I felt something brush my hand. I looked down, seeing Aiden's hand on top of mine, seeking permission.

I nodded and instantly felt his hand wrap around mine. It felt warm. A warmth I didn't even know I was missing. It felt right and it felt like home.

I can smell his warm caramel scent around me and it felt good. I realized I never wanted this to end, I wanted him and I never wanted to let him go. I couldn't lose him.

"Aiden", I whispered. Trying not to let the others overhear.

I got hum in response while he kept rubbing his thumb on my hand, making it hard to concentrate on my words.

Before I could utter another word out, I felt light pressure on the top of my head. Raising my head, I realize he kissed me there.

I didn't know how to respond, I was shocked. First I didn't even know he knew what a kiss was. Second, he FREAKING KISSED ME! (Even if it was just on the head)

It felt like a dream, one I hoped never ended.

"I love you, Ash"

Huh?
What?

"Look before you say anything", he quickly said, " I've liked you for a really long time now and did know how to tell you. You're pretty, funny, smart, and you keep me in line. I really do love you, Ashlyn and I don't want to let you go."

If I was shook before, I'm definitely shook now.

He liked me?!

My face has to be a deep shade of red right now and even his cheeks are a little flushed right now. I couldn't speak.

Well you know what they always say, actions speak louder than words.

I put my hand on the back of his necked and kissed him. I melted into the kiss, knowing I finally have the boy I love.

When I finally pulled away, needing some air, I looked into his eyes, and finally whispered the words I've always wanted too.

"I love you too, Aiden"
