Fake Boyfriend || k.s. {Completed}

Chapter 7 - John or Keaton?

After the movie Keaton and I decided to head to the beach.  As we approached the beautiful beach i reached down and took off my shoes so i can feel the sand between my toes.  I hold my shoes in one hand as Keaton has mine other intertwined with his.  I know i like Keaton and i'm pretty sure he likes me but i cant stop thinking back to John.  I really thought John was my love but as time went by he kept building my hopes just to have the come crashing down with in weeks. The way John told me things just made my heart flutter, his smile was beautiful to me.

Kory why are you thinking of John when you are here with Keaton? My inner voice is right.  Why am i thinking about a guy who broke my heart so many times and told me lies that i was dumb enough to believe.  

"Kory?" I hadn't noticed that we had stopped walking and Keaton was standing in front of me looking at me confused.

"Wait.....What?" I say looking at him as he gazes into my eyes.

 I feel my cheeks heat up, i don't know why i blush a lot when i'm near Keaton i just cant help it. He moved closer to me closing the gap between us, i feel more and more nervous as his hands caress my cheek. 

"Kory i like you, i really like you" I knew it!

 I stare into his eyes, not knowing what to say but cant help the urge to kiss him.  I crashing my lips onto his I couldn't help but smile into the kiss, it was beyond perfect.  I snaked my arms around his neck as his hands find their way to my hips.  Minutes later we finally pull apart, i cant help but smile and looking at Keaton i can tell he cant help but smile either. The walk back to the car was quiet, i don't know what he was thinking but every time no said anything his smile grew bigger and bigger.  

He was so beautiful in this light of the moon, i couldn't help but stare and its just my luck he caught me.  His smiled got bigger i don't even know if that's possible but it did.  I don't think i have ever seen someone smile that big but he proved me wrong.  His smile was breath taking.  He opened the passenger door for me and as i got into the vehicle the door was closed right behind me.  I sat there looking at the window watching Keaton walk to the driver side. The car ride was quiet as it was walking from the beach, i hated the silence but i didn't know what to say to him.  I was confused about everything, the kiss (Which i kinda pushed on him), John wanting to talk to me, and Keaton telling me that he really likes me.  But i still like John.....or love who i thought was John.  He finally pulled up to my house, i couldn't wait for him to open the door for me.  As we walked to the house hand in hand i got nervous.  I scanned the area around my house to see if John's car was anywhere, thank god he wasn't.  

Opening the door i saw Wes and Carly's eyes land on me and Keaton as we walk in closing the door behind us. Soon enough everyone's eyes were on us as grins grew on their faces, i forgot me and Keaton were holding hands.  I snatched my hand away from his blushing a little bit.  He looked confused and ignored it and went to set beside Wes, i watched as he elbowed Keaton giving him a goofy grin.  I didn't know what to do in this situation.  I had to much on my mind but one thing i wanted to do and that was

Sleep.

- A Week Later - 

Keaton and I have been going out for a whole week, everyday we have spent with each other.  I really love to be around him but i feel like I'm leading him on.  I know i still love John and i want to talk to him but i cant leave Keaton alone and heart broken.  He is the sweetest person ever, he makes me feel so great about myself.  He always finds away to remind me that im beautiful, and how much he cares for me.  I really care for him but John is stuck in my head and all the thoughts of everything we have ever said or talked about crowds my mind. I my phone starts to vibrate on my bedside table.  I reach and grab it to see a new text from Keaton.

From Keaton: Kory i cant wait to see you again.....also i think I'm falling in love with you <3

*Keaton's POV*

I waited for her replay.  I really feel like I'm falling in love with her and the way she makes me feel is mind blowing.  My phone vibrates beside me.  I see her name flash on the screen, i unlock smiling at my thoughts maybe she feels the same but my whole world crashes as i read her message.

From Kory: Ok

Ok? 

That's all she can say is ok? 

I toss my phone into the chair across the room, frustrated by her message or answer i would say. 

"What the hell Keaton?" Wes yells as the phone aslmost hits him in the face. 

I just sit there not knowing what to say thinking about the whole week what she has done every time i tell her how i feel about her.

"Kisses me" 

"Dude that's messed up" i look to see Wes holding my phone. I'm guessing he has read the message that i sent and her reply to it. "So has she done that a lot to you often?"

I nod not really wanting to talk about it, i just feel so hurt thinking this all was a game to her.  But that can't be it because i know deep down she cares for me and if she didn't she would tell me right?

"Wes i don't know what to do" i sigh.

I hear a car pull up to the house, but i don't get up to see who is outside.  I just want to be alone right now and not deal with anything. 

"What does she do when you tell her how you feel?" 

"she kisses me and after that she just goes on like i said nothing to her" i love kissing her but i rather have answers. Wes just sits there not saying anything.

"Just don't want to be her fake boyfriend anymore" i pause. "I want to be here real boyfriend" i put my head in my hands as i feel like an idiot for going this far with being Kory's fake boyfriend just so a guy will leave her alone.  Wes doesn't say anything as i just sit there deciding what i had to do.  Then i finally figured it out.
