Chapter ten

[ f a r k l e]

it's been exactly another month when I saw Riley, and when I last went home. It's like a ghost town here, and we have no idea how to go home. That's the reason why she hadn't gone home. To New York, she was stuck here. 

"Farkle, you have no idea how much I've missed you so much, especially your mother. How is she?" she asked, she was laying next to me, holding my hand.  

"Well, first of all, I missed you too. Second, you miss my mother than me? Just kidding, well my mother misses you too, she has been asking about your whereabouts." 

"Aw, now I feel bad." she frowned, she let go of my hand and sat up, crossing her legs. I lay on my side and looked at her.

"Hey, it's okay. You were stuck here and now we're both stuck here." I told her. And she smiled innocently. "Well......."

"You really know how to get out of here, do you?" 

"What? No, of course not, I- Yeah...." she put her head down and I hugged her. "Hey, it's okay. We could stay another month if you want."

She smiled, a strand of hair fell and she put it behind her ear. "Really, are you sure?" she smiled but frowned. "No, we'll go back." she said.

"Why?"

"Because your mom will miss you, even your mom misses me. And it's not fair to her." I hugged her and she hugged me back.

"Whatever you do, i'll be here with you." 

Over the month, we been holding hands, kissing on the cheek, or just a peck on the lips and cuddling. She's full of sunshine and I like it.

"I love you Farkle." she whispered.

I froze. I love her too, or I thought I did, I mean I really like her and I love her... Or, is it too early? I don't really love you. Isadora's voice went through my head. If I didn't really love you, how can she love you too? — No, shut up. 

"It's okay, Farkle. You don't have to say it back. But I want you to know, I do love you." she said, smiling sadly.

"Riles, I really like you but i'm afraid. My last relationship had me feeling afraid. I don't love Isadora anymore but I think I'm just not ready. I really, really really, really like you Riles."

She reached over and held my hands. "As long as I know you like me and you don't love Isadora." she smiled sweetly at me, and kissed me. As I was kissing back, she smiled. 

We were face to face, our forehead touching. "I will wait for you, Farkle." I closed my eyes. god, I am so sensitive. "I don't know how but I heard you, I think it's really adorable that guys show their emotional side."

We laughed and ate some strawberries.
