alison's pov

i smiled nervously as i chomped down on my lip. i was nervous- but the good kind of nervous. i rub my palms together, proud of myself for taking this step. i know that emily wants this too, and i was excited to ask her.

i stare deep into emily's brown eyes and noticed that i inched closer to her and my hand was now on her thigh. i can't say that i didn't imagine myself going further, but i immediately blocked those thoughts from my head, knowing that right now was not the time to be fantasizing about emily.

"uh," i say, lightly laughing.

"what's so funny?" she smiles.

i stare at the pink painted wall which holds a framed photo of me and the girls. i remember that day. we all ditched school, to go to the new ice shop that opened in rosewood, 'creamery'. i kicked a piece of lint off my floor and played with my bedsheets and heard emily's clean rubber shoes, squeak.

"nothing," i say. "it was just-"

"just what?"

"would-" i interrupt myself trying to find a better opening.
do you wanna be my girlfriend?
how about we become official?
would you want me to be your girlfriend?

" i think, that uh, we should take, um , another step in our relationship. "

"what do you mean?" she asks, with a glint of hope in her eyes.

"i'm asking you to be my girlfriend,"  say confidently, but with my eyes sealed shut.

even though my eyes are closed, em's shriek awakens that. i look and see Emily's face tomato red. she excitedly slaps her hands on mine.

"soo that's a yes?"

"YES, YES, YES," she screams.

i grin widely, ear to ear and start to pepper her with kisses. I climb on top of her and quickly kiss her neck and cheeks, knowing that she's ticklish basically anywhere in her body, as she laughs.

She stops me and grabs a hold of my face. She kisses me passionately.

"I'm so glad you asked me," she cheers.

"Me too," I whisper.

I crawl back into bed and hear thunder rumble. Emily's face immediately changes into the cutest pout face, I have ever seen.

She jumps into bed with me and cuddles into my chest as I wrap my arms around her. I turn on the TV.

I inhaled her cinnamon scent, and played with her silky hair.

Just as I thought this moment couldn't get any better, I feel my phone buzzed.

I pulled it out and it revealed an unknown number. Still, I opened it, curious.

It read:

From: Unknown Number

Having fun? Not for long, make sure to watch both of your backs.

My eyebrows furrowed, looking at the words presented on the screen
Emily saw me.

"Ali? Are you okay?" She asks, concerned.

"Y-yeah," I stutter, trying to make her ignore it. It was probably just some joke or something. I should definitely expect one of the girls to call me tomorrow and tell me how I fell for the text. I shrug it off and continue to watch the movie and snuggle with Emily.
