Treegan- loving my best friend

Chapter 14:

Troian's POV:

We drive to Keegan's place in silence, I love just sitting with him, it makes me happy. I can't wait until everyone, especially the fans, know about Keegan and I. I've wanted this for a lifetime, and Ashley nor Marlene can ruin it.

"I-I have to ask you something." Keegan tells me nervously. "Is everything alright?" I ask him placing my hand on his inner thigh while he drives. "Um, y-yeah, everything is great." He stutters. "If you're not ready to tell or ask me something, wait until you are ready. It's fine by me." I smile rubbing his inner thigh a little with my hand.

He nods slowly and gives me a smile. "I love you." He whispers. "I love you too." I smile. When we finally reach Keegan's house we walk in hand in hand, and I place a kiss on his cheek. "Is something bothering you?" I ask him. "I just need to tell you something, but I don't know how to tell you." He says a little irritated.

"Hey, whatever you say won't change anything." I say squeezing his hand a little. "But it will." He says looking into my eyes. "Now you're scaring me a little." I chuckle nervously and bite my bottom lip. "Will whatever you have to say ruin our relationship? Us? Should I leave?" I ask him reaching for the doorknob to go.

"No!" He yells taking my two hands. "Can we maybe sit down?" I ask him. "I don't know how you're going to react. You may just walk out on me, or say yes." He tells me. "You aren't proposing, are you? I'm flattered, but we've only been dating a short amount of time." I say rambling on and on. Keegan shows a smile and chuckles a little.

"No, I'm not proposing." He smiles squeezing my hands. "Oh, I mean, I would love to marry you one day, because, I love you, a lot, and-" I say before he cuts me off with a kiss. "Listen.." He whispers, so I just nod. "So Troian, we've been dating a little while now, correct?" He asks me. "Are you sure you aren't proposing?" I giggle. "Correct?" He asks raising an eyebrow.

"Correct." I respond. "I really, really like you, and want us to work out, you know what I mean?" He asks, maybe hoping I'll get his message clearly, but honestly, I'm getting mixed signals. "No, I mean yes I want all that to happen, but I-I don't know what you mean." I tell him. "What I mean is, Troian, I want to live with you. I want us to live together, in one house." He smiles.

I let go of his hands and cover my mouth, laughing and smiling. "Are you serious?" I ask with excitement. "I'm dead serious." He smiles to me. "Would we live here? Or my house?" I ask him. "I was thinking here, it's a little bigger. Wait, is that a yes?" He asks me smiling. "It's a yes! One hundred million times yes!" I squeal and run into his arms for a hug he picks me up and swings me around.

"This is so amazing, and exciting. What about Marlene? Our jobs? How will she take this?" I ask worrying about everything. "Hey, don't worry about that, think about how close we are to our happily ever after. We will soon be living together, and from this day on, we are only moving forward.." He smiles kissing me. "You're so dorky and cheesy." I giggle hugging him.

"I'm so happy this is happening." He tells me. "When do you want to get your things? And bring it here." He asks me with an even bigger smile on his face. "The thought of that just gives me shivers, and makes me unbelievably happy. Maybe tomorrow after work?" I suggest. "Sure." He smiles.

My phone rings.

"Sorry." I apologize to Keegan and immediately answer it. "Hello?" I answer. "I have news." Ashley says on the phone. "Ashley? What news?" I choke out. "I already told Marlene about you two, so now it's time for some fun. Let's spread rumours everywhere." She says with an evil chuckle. "What do you mean?" I ask her. "You'll see by the time you get to work tomorrow, kisses!" She says and hangs up.

"Oh my god." I mumble hanging up. "What is she going to do?" He asks me. "Start rumours about me, she didn't say what they'd be, but God only knows." I say cupping my face. "Hey, but they're only rumours, and I know they aren't true, that's all that matters, right?" He smiles. "I guess, but she said one will be out by tomorrow morning..." I gulp.

"I can just post on my social medias that these rumours aren't true!" I say with an evil smile. "She wouldn't let you off the hook that easily, and you know it. She'll make them worse. Eventually about us dating..." He says. "Can we, just head to bed? I'm not ready for tomorrow." I sigh. "Come on." He says leading me to his room.

Keegan removes his jogging pants and shirt, and throws his shirt to me. I give him a small smile and took off my leggings, then my shirt, putting his on instead. "Thank you." I say kissing him. "For what?" He asks climbing into bed. "Not replacing me when someone better came along and always standing by my side." I smile kissing his cheek, and lying down close to him.
