- Sorry for any grammar errors -

I fell asleep and I had the best dream ever. I dreamed that Wes asked me to be his girlfriend and I said yes. I just wish that-oh! I look to my left and he’s right here next to me. So, the dream was real? Am I really his girlfriend now? He’s sleeping so peacefully that it’s hard not to smile. I lean in closer to his ear “Hi cutie” he starts waking up and when he opens his eyes and sees me, his mouth shape a smile “What’s up girlfriend”. Yeah, the dream was real. I really like this idea of being his girlfriend. He makes me happy and I couldn’t feel better with him by my side.

“I thought I was dreaming” I say resting my hand over his chest “Dreaming with what? Unicorns?” he says. “Well if you consider you a unicorn then yes” we both laugh. Then he stops and looks at me while he rubs my skin with his thumb “Thank you”. That takes me by surprise “Thank you for what?” “For being here, for making me forget about that Drew’s situation even if it’s just for a minute” Oh. I wish he didn’t say that, I already feel bad because I haven’t told him about Drew and now he’s thanking me for being there for him. No please, don’t thank me. I think it’s time for him to know the truth “Wes, I need to t-“ “Shush” he puts his finger over my mouth so that he could stop me from talking “I love you”. Oh my dear god. Tell me I’m dreaming please. I love you. Those words are powerful. He loves me? Wesley Stromberg loves me? How? Why? What do I have for him to love me? He notices the surprise on my look. My cheeks are burning and he’s waiting for me to say something but I’m speechless, I just don’t know what to say. I sit up on the bed and he follows my moves “What’s wrong?” he says with his head leaned down. I turn my face to him and immediately crash my lips on his. He’s gonna be devastated when he knows that his best friend likes his girlfriend and he’s gonna blame me for not telling him but everytime I try he cuts my words. When we split away to catch our breaths he talks “Just let me know if it’s too soon, I’ll understand, but you’re mine now and I do love you so yeah” he smiles and I try to smile too knowing that I’m hiding a big thing from him. “It’s not too soon and I love you too” I finally say it. I love him. I truly love him and that’s why I’m scared.

His phone interrupts our moment. He quickly jumps out of bed and picks it up from the nightstand “Hey. Uhm no, I don’t know when we’re coming back… but Drew… he has amnesia… yeah, I don’t know what’s gonna happen… I hope he recovers…okay, I’ll let you know…bye”. He comes back to bed and sits on the edge with a sad look on his face “So, who was it?” I ask.

“Our manager…it’s gonna be hard now that Drew’s in the hospital. We already canceled some concerts and stuff and we have this tour with Selena in two months… I don’t know what’s gonna happen with the band Madison”. I try to comfort him rubbing circles on his back “It’s gonna be okay, he’ll recover, he’s strong and he’ll make it through, we just have to believe” “Yeah you’re right babe” he smiles which makes me smile too. When I look at the watch it says 8:34pm. Shit, I better get going. I start getting up but I need to cover myself with the blankets because…yeah. I pick up my clothes from the ground and head to the bathroom “You don’t need to cover your body you sexy thing” Wes blinks at me before I enter in the bathroom “Of course not, boyfriend” I say sarcastically. I really could get used to this boyfriend/girlfriend thing and I wish it lasted but I’m not sure, not until he knows the truth.

“Where were you?” The moment I walk in my house my brother starts shooting me questions.

“Since when you’re my dad?” I say rolling my eyes. I start walking upstairs but then I stop and turn around “Don’t you have anything else to do than being always over my ass? I’m tired okay, T-I-R-E-D! You’re annoying, you give me headaches and you’re my brother, you’re supposed to be there for me when I need!” Okay, now I’m done. I finally go to my room. He needed to hear that. I just hope he gets it and stops acting like a jerk because I would like if he started acting like a real brother, not like a dick brother.
