"you need to tell him Phil."
I knew that Emily was right. I do need to tell Dan that I'm in love with him. it's been eating me alive for the past 3 months. I started to notice the way he scrunched up his face when he laughs really hard, or the way his touch makes me feel like a 13 year old girl on her first date. I realized that I look at him a little too long, and that I really like the thought of being his boyfriend.
there was a knock on Emily's door followed by Dan's voice. "em, have you seen ph- oh hey dude. what are you doing in here?" he scrunched up his face in disgust.
"ewwww are you shagging my sister?" I shook my head unbelievably fast. a look of relief flooded over his face. "oh thank god." Emily let out a squeaking sound. "so what if he was?" Dan looked at her like she had three heads. "are you being serious right now Emily?"
I stood up and walked over to Dan pulling him out of Emily's room. "lets go Dan." he nodded and walked with me back to his room. we sat on his bed. "so why were you in my sister's room?" I sucked in a breath. it's one or never "w-well you see, I w-was talking to h-her about something."
Dan laughed at my nervousness.
"what are you trying to tell me? are you like in love with me or something?" Dan joked, but his face soon fell when he saw that I didn't answer him. "oh my god. you are." I didn't know what to do. I figured I would kiss him and if he kissed back then that would mean he felt at least a tiny bit of the same for me. I leaned forward and pressed my lips to his.
he didn't kiss back.
I felt my heart break when I pulled away and saw an empty look in his eyes. I felt tears start to fall as I got up to leave his room. I felt him grab my wrist tightly. he pulled me back to him.
he looked at me deeply before he kissed me.
I kissed back.
he pulled back and rested his forehead on mine. "damn. I guess I'm not as straight as I claim to be." I smiled and then he pressed his lips to mine again, making my heart flutter.
god I love him.
