He Found Me

Chapter 8

Ivy P.O.V
----------------------------------------------
I am shocked, completely dumbfounded. I keep questioning myself. How do I feel about Tristan? Is he just a friend or is he more? When I'm around him I feel slightly dizzy, and he always cheers me up. When we kissed at the party I felt the most amazing sparks. I never felt those before. My mind keeps running through these facts, and all the things that I have learned from reading books. Then it all clicks. In one instant I realize what is going on. I ,Ivy Stars, have fallen deeply in love with Tristan Spain.  When the realization of it all hits me the biggest smile spreads itself across my face.  I'm in love with Tristan.  The guy who I kissed as a dare.  The one who forced me to go on a date with him.  He stole my heart, and I don't wish for anything else.  I still have to answer him.  How am I going to say this without sounding weird.  I think over this for a while before I get an idea.  I pull out my phone and send him my answer.

"Want to hear a poem?"  My anxiety rises when the phone goes unanswered for a little while.  My ringtone calms me down slightly.

"Sure". I breathe  out and tap away at my phone.

"Roses are red, Violets are blue, You stole my heart and I like you." I look at the text that I sent to him with slight worry. In a matter of seconds I get a message that took my breath away?
Tristan P.O.V
----------------------------------------------
I felt incredibly happy. I told her my feelings, and it feels like a huge weight has been lifted off of my shoulders. I get into my truck, and I drive home planning on staying near my phone for the rest of the night. The farther I get from her house the more anxious I get for her reply. The rest of the drive home feels like torture, but I know I need to be patient. I sprint my way up the stairs and throw myself on the bed waiting for her reply. After a while, I get up and start to pace my room. This doesn't seem to help any of my feelings at all. Then it happens, I hear a ring from my phone. For a few seconds I was completely frozen. I quickly got out of that when my phone decided to remind me by ringing again. I pounce on it and slightly calm myself down before reading the message.

"Do you want to hear a poem?"  I felt so confused, but I of course said yes to her.

"Sure" I texted back waiting for her to answer a very important question.

"Roses are red, Violets are blue, You stole my heart and I like you."  I had to double take when I read this.  She likes me back.  It's not one sided.  I start fist pumping and mentally screaming the words yes over and over again.  I sort my thoughts out and send her a quick reply. I really hope this message will lead to us being closer than we are right now.

"You know what I have to ask now right?" That was what I said. Nothing less, nothing more.
