"Yeah sure." I say nervously, playing with my hair. Oh. My. God! This is it. He wants to take this friendship to another level. Am I ready for this? "Ebony, we've both know each other for a while. Over the past few months I feel we've grown closer and made a good friendship.
But I never wanted you to me friend. Ebony I am............" He sighs as if he can't say it, and I close my eyes in half relief and half defeat. I wanted him to say it, but then again I'm glad he didn't. Now it's awkward. When we get off of this ferries wheel, things won't be the same. I'm tired of keeping Macarevhic at an arm's length. I don't want to lose him. If he won't say it then I will. I might be going through changes still, but I want Macarevhic around. He makes everything better. And life doesn't seem so tough when I'm around him. He makes life easy for me. My heart starts to beat in overdrive.
I'm going to tell Macarevhic the very words I never wanted to feel for him. "Macarevhic I love you." I say quickly and drop my head down in embarrassment. I think Macarevhic has gone into shock because he is extremely still and quiet. Oh no I think I made a mistake.
"Wait what did you just say?" Macarevhic ask in a breathless voice. "I said I love you." I look at Macarevhic and he smiles at me. He kisses me and I promise you it's everything I thought it would be. I felt like flying and my heart was threatening to beat out of my chest. We continue to kiss passionately as if we both need each other. I been wanting to do this for so long and it feels right. It has always felt right. I love Macarevhic. I love him. I'M IN LOVE!
During the ride home, it wasn't awkward in fact we laugh joked and he snag me a song in Spanish. It's was as if all the restricted feeling is now gone. He loves me and I mean he really loves me, and I love him. I never thought nobody would ever really love me.
As a matter of fact, Arod hasn't crossed my mind at all. I'm happy about that. Macarevhic walks me to the door, and he gives me a light peck on my lips. "I love you chica." I put my harms around his waist and hug him. He's so fine, he's everything I ever wanted and I finally got it. I feel like crying tears of joy. I look into his eyes, and I smile.
"I love you too Macarevhic." We kiss again and I reluctantly tear myself away from him and go into the apartment. I feel like running a marathon and I can't stop smiling.
