chapter 22

when I got home, kian was still on my couch. it was late, so I'm surprised that he's still here. I didn't expect him to wait for me this whole time.

"kian, I'm back." I lightly shook him and his eyes flickered open.

"oh god, what time is it?" he asked groggily, sitting up.

"11 o'clock." I replied and he sighed.

"can I stay here tonight? I really don't feel like driving home." I nodded. my mom was on a business trip again, so I was alone anyways. I didn't feel like being alone.

kian has stayed at my house so many times, that he has his own drawer in my dresser full of clothes. we've been best friends since kindergarten, so he's basically family. his home life isn't very good, so he relies on us to take care of him. lately, that's all I've been doing.

"can you make some food? I'm really hungry." kian whined and I laughed.

"I have no food. there's some bread, so I can make toast." he nodded eagerly. I grabbed the toaster and plugged it in.

kian came up from behind me and wrapped his muscular arms around my torso.

"I missed you today." he whispered, kissing my cheek.

"I missed you too." I replied.

kian sighed. he released his grasp on me. he turned to face me. "I've wanted to ask you this for a while now-"

smoke was rising from the toaster and was followed by the smoke alarm blasting through my house. my neighbors are probably pissed since it's 11 PM and my smoke alarm is going off.

"crap, sorry. hold on one second." I ran to the toaster.

the piece of toast was completely burned and smelled terrible.

"how do you turn off the alarm?" I yelled over the horrible beeping noise.

kian took his shoe and threw it at the device. luckily, the alarm turned off.

"so much for me making toast. can you order a pizza?" I asked and he nodded, grabbing his phone.

"what kind do you want?" kian asked.

"pepperoni, duh. you've known me for how long, yet you don't know what kind of pizza I order? fake."

-

"can I marry pizza? it's the love of my life." kian and I are watching The Incredibles since I've never seen it. he claims that it's the best movie ever.

"still can't believe you've never seen this movie. it's my favorite." kian said.

"I fall asleep every time I watch it. it's pretty good, though." I replied.

I was really tired since it was almost 2 am. kian was snuggled up next to me and my head was resting on his shoulder.

I could feel myself falling asleep. I was extremely comfortable cuddling with kian. I loved this.

"krista, can I ask you something?" he asked. i nodded. he picked me up and sat me on his lap so I was facing him.

"I've been wanting to ask you this for awhile but I couldn't think of the right thing to say. you know already how much I like you. I want to be with you, and not just a best friend thing. I want to take you on cute dates and cuddle with you and do all of those things that couples do." kian paused.

to tell you the truth, I've been waiting for him to ask me.

"I like that you take care of me when I come home drunk late at night. I like that even when I piss you off you still care about me. I like when you don't have on any makeup and wear sweatpants and my big t-shirts." I laughed.

"I guess you can figure out what I'm getting to. krista taylor, please do me the honor of being my girlfriend."
