We have moved inside now. Me carry carrying her in my arms. Our lips locked. I'm slowly making my way to my bed room and opened the door aggressively trying to get it out of my way. I lay her slowly down on the bed and crawl on top of her. Cautious.
" wait.." She whispers in my ear. I'm suddenly afraid and ashamed of what I have done. And begin to back off
" oh my gosh Megan I am so sorry. I didn't mean to push myself-" I'm cut off by her hands agressivly pulling me to her by my collar.
" all I was going to ask you is if you love me. "
I was shocked. How did she not know. I have loved her forever. How stupid of me. I'd actually have to talk to her for her to know. Dumb ass. I've noticed in taking to long tk answer her.
" yes. Megan I really really do love you. More than anyone in this world. " I begin to crawl on to the bed next to her. It's never felt so filled. So right before.
" how would you know that..." She says. Almost as if she's embarrassed.
" well. Who else comes to my door just to ask me to hang out? Who else has been through my parents death with me? Who else.... No one. You have been by my side through everything. And when I see you I get butterfly's and a feeling I just can't explain. I can't help but smile and be myself around you. I may not be the best friend you've ever had... But I know you have been mine. And I will do anything to see you smiling." I'm looking at my hands twirling my fathers ring. It's always been something I do when I'm nervous. Then i see her small almondy hand come into my view and slowly intertwine itself with my fingers. I look into her eyes. They're watery. I hope i didn't say anything wrong. "if that's not love then I don't know what love is".
I was looking in her eyes before. But then somwthing shifted. Something just changed oh so slightly. And then I wasn't looking to her eyes anymore. But I felt I could touch her soul. I could see everything she was feeling. What she wanted to say. I could feel her. Then I knew. I was falling. Falling in love with her again.
