"What are we?"

Lania's POV -

We just kissed, I haven't see him since last year, he just got over a break up... And now he asks me "what are we?" I like him but I can't decide. It's too soon.

"Um." I mumbled.
"Did I scare you? Please say I didn't." Archer replied to me.
"I-I just need some time to think." I whispered as a ran away.
"Lan wait! Come back!" Archer shouted from the distance as he got up to chase me.

He was running after me, and I felt unstoppable. Until I was stopped. He picked me up again, swooping me off my feet, carrying me like his bride. Then setting me down when I stopped squirming.

Gosh, he was muscular. And perfect. But how did I fall in love so fast? I mean, I've known him for YEARS but still.

"Lania... Please don't run away from me. I know I've messed. And I've been ignoring you for a year and I've hated myself for it. I learned that we were meant for eachother... And I-I-I love you." He said with a cry.

What do I say. Just speak, Lania. Speak your mind.

I love you too Arch, I said and ran up to him and kissed his cheek, then looked at him and grabbed his neck and finished it off with a kiss on the lips.

Did you just... Yes you did.

"Hey Arch. Catch me." I smirked.
"Wha?" He murmured back as I bolted across the field and into the street, dodging cars like a bullet, he was chasing behind me.

HOOOOONK!

With that, I heard a skid, a slide, and a crash. I looked behind me knowing Archer was the cause. Was he hurt?
"Archer! Where are you?" I cried out.
"Ove-r he-here." He said lying under rubble from the car's bumper.
"Are you okay?" I said running up to him.
"Yeah, just a fe-w scratches and bruises that's all." Archer mumbled.
"Do you need help?" I said as he got up and hobbled over to me.

Archer's POV -

"I'm fine, I promise."

I'm not fine. I ache, I'm hurt. But it should just be a sprain and a couple bruises.

We made it to her house and I decide to lie on her couch.

She came in with a glass of water.
"You sure you're okay?" She said in that cute worried tone.
"Yeah, I'm fine." I said as I took the glass and drank.

Lania's POV -

He's not. I can see it in his eyes. Is he trying to impress me?

"Hey, movie?" He said.
"Sure, but I have finals tomorrow... So after, you have to hit the road Jack!" I said with a laugh and started to sing.
"You're adorable." He said as I got up and popped in Captian America.
"One of my favorites." I said as I sat down on the couch.

It was about 4:00pm and the sun had already set. Stupid daylight savings... The movie was just about done, and due to Archer's injury, he fell asleep.

I wiggled a little to wake him up.
"Hm? What? What'd I miss?" He mumbled.
"Nothing much, just like... The whole movie." I laughed.
"Here, come on." I said waving my hand over to my stomach. I sloped down and signaled for him to lay on my stomach.

He maneuvered over and rested his head on me ever so gently.
He's literally an angel. Soon after, we both fell asleep.

It was now 8:34pm and Archer woke me up with the slightest of movement. He reached out his hand and started rubbing my arm with his thumb.

"Hey I have to go." He whispered.
"Mmmokay." I said in a morning voice.
"Text me, okay?" He said as he hobbled off the couch and to the door.
"Yeah okay I will I promise." I said as my eyes forcibly shut.
"Goodnight, sleep well." Archer said as he closed the door behind him, hearing a click which meant lock.

Goodnight.

"Today has been confusing. And I am tired." I said to myself before shutting my eyes once again.
