She made me feel brave confident and I couldn't wait till she came round. Butterflies were whirling around in my stomach waiting for her too knock on my front door. I must have fluffed the pillows dozens of times before that clear, rapid knock sounded on my front door. I took a deep breathe and walked towards the door. I hesitated, seeing her figure through the blurry window on the door, her long, curly hair took up her shape. My hand reached for the handle and I turned it, revealing Lilly in a white crop top and black, skinny, high wasted jeans, only revealing her abs. Her lashes curled up, her cheeks were tinted pink and her lips glossy, she clearly made an effort which made me feel even more nervous.

She smiled at big, her big gorgeous smile, her eyes lit up as her pupils widened.

"Hey" she said, her voice as sweet as ever.

"Hey, come in" I moved away from the doorway so she could come in. She took off her heeled black boots and placed them delicately next to the door and we walked into the living room, not saying a word. I sat down on the sofa opposite the television.

"You want to sit?" She nodded and sat on the end of the same sofa.

I turned by body towards her, looking at her for a moment until I finally said "so, what did you want to talk to me about?"

"So, um" this is the first time I've seen Lilly nervous. "Do you really like me?" She looks at me for a split second then looked away.

"I really, really do". She immediately smiled, and looked me right in the eye
"I really like you Rosie, these last few days have been incredible" I blushed and we looked into each others eyes, absorbing each others words. Lilly finally broke the silence with; "Rosie, I have a question"

"Ask away"

She took a deep breathe and cleared her throat as the butterflies in my stomach whirled around.

"I really want to be with you, I want to go on dates with you and spend all the time I can with you. Will you be my girlfriend?"

My heart was beating right out of my chest. Was this real? Did she really just ask that? I was left speechless and couldn't respond. Her smile began to fade as her cheeks grew redder. I've waited to long to reply.

"Uh, sorry. I just. Sorry" she turned towards the turned off television, avoiding eye contact.

I shook my head but could conjure up a single word. Instead I moved closer to her and pulled her into an embrace, after the initial shock, she wrapped her arms around me.

"Yes, I would love to be your girlfriend" I whispered into her ear.

We sat around watching the kardashians for the most of the evening, whilst giggling and eating popcorn.

My head was resting on her lap, my feet up of the sofa as she ran her fingers through my hair.

"When did you realise that you liked me?" She questioned me, turning down the volume of the tele. "We've only spoken for a few days, and we are already together. So when did you realise?"

I sat up and decided to tell her "I've actually liked you, well, basically since the day started sitting next to each other. You always looked gorgeous and smelled amazing and, and I started to like you" I blushed and continued with a smile "I never thought we'd be together"

"Well now we are and I've never been happier" she smiled back at me as I felt goosebumps rising across my body.

"When did you realise you started liking me?"

"Hmm, you've always seemed quite interesting before we talked but, I really knew that you were quite cool the first time we started working on our project. We just had so much in common and laughed so much and I felt a connection"

"Um, in school, I'm not out yet. My family know but not people at school except Grace" I avoided I contact with her. Knowing this was a deal breaker.

She put her hand on my arm and comforted me, "It's okay, no one has to know till we are ready"

I couldn't help but smile, she was so sweet and understanding.

It still hadn't quite sunk in that she was my girlfriend. Lilly was my girlfriend. The girl that I had been pining over since the start of the year, finally liked me back. She could get any guy, any girl and she chose me.

We carried on flicking through the channels, finding something to watch and settled for the Big Bang theory. We watched and laughed together until it was time for her to go.

"It's getting late, I should probably get home for dinner and sort out my stuff for school tomorrow" I nodded then got up and walked towards the door. We paused in the hall way and I turned to face her. She took both my hands in hers "You're so pretty and you have made me happier than I've ever been in a while. I know it's been such a short time and it seems almost unrealistic and feels it. But, but it's real to me. I'm so glad you said yes"

I smiled and replied "you make me so happy and I'm flattered that you even liked me back and now you're my girlfriend. It's crazy but I'm so incredibly glad and wouldn't have it any other way"

As I finished off my sentenced she pulled me into her, wrapping her long lean arms around my waist, and rest her head on my shoulder. I wrapped my arms around her neck and buried my face into her, absorbing her scent.

We stood there, in each others arms, forever. Until she started to slowly pull away, all I wanted to do was grab onto her but I knew that it was late already. She pulled away so that we were still holding each other, our bodies were embraced together, touching but our heads were inches apart. Her big brown eyes were looking into mine and she smiled. I smiled back staring at her face, every curled eye lash stood out and emphasised her eyes. She leaned her face in closer and my stomach immediately had butterflies. I leaned in as well until we were centimetres apart. She wrapped her arms tighter around my body so we were one. We simultaneously leaned in towards each other, closing her eyes and slowly closing the gap between us. Her lips met mine, softly then harder. A millions bolts of electricity raced through my body, she pulled me in closer and closer. My hand found its way into her curly hair, gently pushing her head closer towards me. It felt magical, majestic, elegant. There wasn't anything aggressive about it. Everything was fragile, delicate and perfect.

Everything stood still and the rest of the world was black and white, but we were in screaming colour.
