ALSO immediately go listen to Kill For You by Gigi Perez and don't tell me that isn't percabeth. Ugh i am sick


Walker's POV:

After saying goodnight Leah, I head back into my room. Embarrassingly enough, I need to talk to someone about this. Typically it'd be Leah, but I mean, yeah. I don't think I want to talk to any of the cast about it because what if she's on a different page than me? Pulling out my phone I know exactly who I should text. The one and only, Leena Scobell.

Hey I send.

You good? She replies almost immediately. We don't really text. It's either meme-communication or random 2 hour long facetime calls.

I kissed Leah - Actually she kissed me. The details are not important.

OMG? Tell me EVERYTHING. Okay. the details are important.

I was giving her, her birthday gift. The necklace I showed you? She loved it. Then we swam for a bit, but when we got out of the pool the sky was with the aurora things with all the colours. And then we kissed!

Awe Walker, your first kiss! I am so so so happy for you. This is not my first kiss and she knows it.

Just because you didn't like her doesn't mean my first kiss didn't count. Yeah I don't really know what I'm fighting. Kissing Leah was obviously better.

Fine. You're first important kiss. Anyways, are you guys dating?

Well I don't really know. That's why I'm texting you. We kissed two separate times but we didn't really talk about us.

Well, do you want her to be your girlfriend?

Obviously.

Okay, then ask her? She says that as if it's the easiest thing in the world.

I cant just ask her to be my girlfriend.

?????? Why not lmfao -Well to start, what if she says no? I don't think she would but what if she's not ready? And was just overwhelmed in the moment?

Because it could ruin everything.

I'm pretty sure it would be more like everything you've ever hoped for. Don't stress lil bro. She likes you back, anyone can see it. Just talk to her. I'm sure she's feeling the exact same ways as you are right now. Confused but hopeful.

Yeah okay. You're right. I just need to talk to her.

I always am. Night brother, love ya.

Love you too Leen. I don't know if she really helped out with my problem, but she sure did make me feel better.

The next morning I'm awoken to very subtle nudges against my shoulder.

"Walker? Walker, wake up." It's Leah. I lift my head and look around at our surroundings. I'm in my room. She's in my room. Our moms? Not in my room. She looks like she also just woke up, just maybe like five minutes before.

"Our moms went to grab breakfast. I thought maybe we could talk."

"Yeah sure! Let me just brush my teeth." I get up and use the washroom, I brush my teeth and wash my face, finally I change into an ABBA T-shirt and go to join her in the living room.

"Morning Leah," I say to her.
"Good morning Walker, did you have a good sleep?" She asks. She looks beautiful this morning. But she also looks like she might've been tossing and turning like I was.

"Not really."

'Me neither."

"I texted Leena."

"That desperate, huh?" I chuckle back at that comment, somehow forgetting how well this girl knows me,

"Well it's not like I could've talked to you about you!"

"Sure you could have. "Oh Leah, I think Leah's the prettiest girl in the world"" she says with the world's worst impression of me.

"Oh c'mon I do not sound like that," I fake offense.

"You used to." Okay, she's got me there. She continues, "what were you thinking about?"

"Us."

"Obviously. Care to elaborate?" She's smiling at me.

"This is hard. You go first?"

She starts to fidget with the necklace around her neck. The one I had gotten last night.

"Well for starters I guess I'm just confused on where this puts us, relationship wise. I don't think I want to just be friends, Walk. I like you a lot and after the kiss I just think being friends isn't the right move for us." Perfect, setting up the nicest segway for my next question!

"I'm so glad you feel that way too, Leah. Will you be my girlfriend?" She lets out a big belly laugh.

"Just jumping straight into that, huh." She snakes her arms up and around my neck and pulls me in closer.

"I'd love to be your girlfriend, Walker!" I pull her against me into a giant hug. Our height difference makes this so much better. She tilts her head up at me and I can't help myself but lean down to give her a kiss on the lips. We return back to the couch, maybe sitting a bit closer than usual and continue our morning chatter. Leah's eyes spark up and a smirk appears on her face.

"You know what would be really fun? If we messed with the cast about us. They already assumed we'd get together at some point. What's a little harm?" ah I love this girl.

"Ha, that's a great idea Lee. Act all obvious. Drive them all insane... But what about our moms? Should we keep this from them too? Our own little secret?" I ask her, while her hands in my palm and I play around with her fingers. She'll probably be able to tell something's up the minute she returns with breakfast, but once again. She never pushes. She'll just continuously chat with Leena and Ms Leah until one of us says something. This will be a ton of fun. I'm already coming up with ideas.

'I mean we'll tell them all eventually. We're all so close though sometimes it feels like they know stuff about us before we even do. It'll be nice to have our own little secret for a bit," she goes on, "plus when we tell everyone it also makes it easier for the internet to find out. I just want to keep this between us just for a little while longer." Right now it's just Leah and I, and I absolutely love it.

Around fifteen minutes later, our moms return with large acai bowls. We chat around eating them on the couch before asking Leah what she'd like to do for the rest of the day. We need to be back at the YYC airport for 6, meaning leaving here around 4. So we have about 8 hours of whatever Leah would like to do. We decided a little trip down to the Cave and Basin for a little swimming would be a fun start. Leah jumps in the shower to get ready, our moms start packing a bag for us, filled with things like sunscreen and snacks, and I, myself go to grab my journal and a pen.
