By the time we got home that night it was 4 am so I just crashed on the living room floor. My siblings and I all just fell asleep with Michael laying on the floor just a few feet away from me. The feeling of him being there was semi comforting. This feeling I was felling what was it? I didn't know what to think. "Stupid hormones", is what I kept telling myself. Laying there that night was the best I had slept in a while. My mind actually was able to go to sleep as well, there were no nightmare. That night was the first night I didn't have the nightmares. I hated them, the worst ones are the ones you try to wake yourself up from but you cant so you begin to think they are real. I didn't know why the thought of him being right there made me feel this way but it did and that's what mattered. In the morning when I woke up there I was in his arms. I tried to roll away as fast as I could in hope that no one had seen what was going on. I asked myself what happened? Had I done anything dumb? What was I thinking? He was a family friend... Had I gone crazy? All these questions went through my head. "Wait...No...This can't be happening," I whispered to myself. I could not get lose. He had me wrapped so tightly. I could not get lose with out waking him up. The question of what about everyone else? did anyone else see? Kept coming to my head. What would they say if they did see? If anyone had seen I'm sure we will be hearing about it at breakfast. "Crap breakfast." I said out loud, reaching for my phone. Breakfast was in 10 minutes, I had to be there. I turned back to Michael and shook him awake. "Get up, Get up,Get up" I screamed trying to shake him from his sleep. I felt his hand loosen up. He sat up and said "um what happened?" With a hint of joy in his voice. Nothing just fell asleep but we had no time to discuss what had happened. As I stood up I started talking to him trying to get him to get up as well. I turned back around to tell him breakfast was in ten minutes. As I started to turn I only got about half way around, then before I could say a word. His lips were pressed up against mine. I stood there not knowing what to think, but started to kissed him back. After a minute passed by I took a step back and turned away and said with a pleased tone "I was just going to say breakfast is in ten minutes please feel free to join us." The biggest smile appeared on his face and the same for mine but my whole face started to turned red as well. Nothing was said at breakfast about the incident that had taken place last night. So guess no one saw anything. breakfast went well though the whole time I was trying not to turn red at the sight of Michael. He had texted me while we were eating. My face lite up I looked up at him and he looked away. Then my phone went off again. with a text that read "play it off if anyone finds out your brother will not be happy at all." he looked back up at me and smiled. I smiled back and just tried acting normal. But I knew I was falling in love. What was love? I had never felt this way before. Was this even love? I had no idea. He went back home right after breakfast I was so sad to see him go but I knew I would see him again so I was still super happy I had gotten to spend the night with him. I didn't know what my whole family thought about him. But I know I liked him so honestly I did not care what my family thought.
