"Just look at that sunset" I said.
The sky was filled with colours. The most beautiful shade of yellow, blue, red and pink was painted on the sky.

"Isn't it beautiful, Elliott?" I asked him.

"No. Not as beautiful as you." He replied happily.
The sound of that always wants to make me smile.

"Hey Elliott. Can I tell you something?" I asked.

"Yeah sure"

"You remember that time when we smoked weed?" I asked him

"Yeah. Why?"

"Well, I guess you were high enough to tell me that you love me. Even kiss me"

"Huh..? What?! Kathlyn, I didn't- I don't- I-"
His sentence got interrupted when I leaned in to kiss him.
His soft lips touched my lip gloss drenched lips. We kissed like the world was ending. But no. Every time I'm with him it feels like time stopped. Everything changes. My heart beats so fast. Because I love Elliott Scott Foxx.

"Did I really?" He asked stuttering. A few seconds later he finally said,
"Well, I really don't care about that now."
He pulled me so close to him so that he can kiss me as long as he can.

"My bad boy" I whispered in his ear.

"My smart weirdo" he whispered back.

"I'm starving" I said hungrily.

"Well, let's go eat!" He replied.
We walked to the elevator and got in. I pushed the button to the first floor. We got off whispering to each other "I love you",
Or
"My bad boy", and
"my smart weirdo"

We (kind of) took all of the food and hungrily consumed it. We kept on smiling while holding hands under the table. We got back to our room and watched TV.

"I love you" Elliott said.

"I love you more." I replied.
