~(Y/n) POV~

The curtains were drawn back, letting the night lights into the somewhat dark living room. I sat on my couch, a pair of strong arms wrapped around my waist. My back was pressed against his chest, and his chin rested on my head.

It was movie night once again, and Bickslow and I were watching (f/m) again. My boyfriend of four months never ceases to amaze me. His resilience to cheesy movies was matched by no other.

The bowl of popcorn on my lap was slowly being drained, and now as we neared the end of the movie only a hand full or two remained. I sighed and relaxed against him, the tension of the movie finally finding closure.

"This movie never gets old," I said, smiling contently as the credits began to roll.

"Speak for yourself, princess," Bickslow replied, chuckling.

"Well it's too bad it was my choice this week," I said as I wiggled out of his arms. I stood and winked at him playfully.

"Such a tease," He winked back.

I giggled and went to take the bowl into the kitchen. I was, however, stopped by a pair of arms wrapping around me again. "Where do you think you're going?" He whispered in my ear.

I blushed and giggled again. "Away from you, your breath smells," He recoiled, and checked his breath, blushing slightly.

I laughed at him and went into the kitchen. I heard him close the bathroom door and start brushing his teeth. I couldn't help but smile. I do love that idiot. The thought raised a sudden question.

When would I tell him. We had been together so long, yet we hadn't ever said the words. Those fateful words. I love you. I made it clear how I felt, but saying those words still scared me. What if he wasn't ready for that kind of a serious relationship?

I shook my head. Maybe the risk wasn't worth it. But, the again, he deserved to know. I wanted to take our relationship further, and this was the first step, but how would he react..?

"What're you thinking about..." Bickslow said from behind me, his voice dreamily absentminded.

"Is it that obvious?" I said, breathing out a laugh.

"You always pout a certain way when you're thinking," He said, coming up behind me and engulfing me in a gentle hug.

We swayed back and forth slightly and I relaxed into his embrace. "I was, I guess, just thinking about us..." I replied, staring off into space.

"What about us," He rested his chin on my head.

"Our future together," Maybe I should tell him now. Maybe I should say that I love him.

"Are these thoughts for my ears too?" He asked gently.

"They could be. If you're willing to take the risk," Anxiety coursed through me. What if he didn't want to get serious? Was this a mistake?

"I'm all ears," There was no turning back now.

"Bickslow, I love you," I said, biting my lip.

The swaying stopped, and for me time slowed. All I could feel was anticipation. This could either be a good decision or the end of a relationship. Suddenly, a chuckle resided from his lips.

"Is that it? I've been in love with you since the day I met you."

I spun around, looking up at him, a blush on my cheeks. "You should have told me! I was so nervous that you weren't serious about us..." A sweat drop rolled down my cheek.

"I was worried about the same thing," He said, sighing.

I leaned in and kissed him, laughing all the while. "We're such idiots. It's a good thing I love you," I said, pulling away.

He smiled and pecked my lips once more. "Sure is."
