My Best Friend [COMPLETE]

Chapter 10 - Wait, He Loves Me Back?

"I, uh..." he stuttered.

"You like me!" I said, with a tone of satisfaction. He scratched the back of his neck.

"Maybe..." he said shyly.

"I'm gonna go," said Mia, obviously uncomfortable.

"Okay, bye." I said. She turned to leave and after I paid, Thomas and I went home. When we got inside, I broke the silence.

"Thomas, we've been friends since we were... not the point. We should be able to talk about this." 

"Do you like me back?" he asked. I blushed.

"How long?" I looked at my feet, and he pulled me closer by my hips. "Long?"

"Maybe..." I rested my hands on his chest.

"How long?" He looked down at me.

"Since..." I paused, thinking. "Since Junior year..."

"Of high school!"

"Yeah,"

"You've had, like, four boyfriends since then, well three not counting Bryce."

"Definitely not counting Bryce." He pulled me closer. I didn't think that was even possible. My hands were squished, so I moved them to his neck.

"Okay. he wasn't very nice,"

"No, he wasn't." I looked into his eyes, his gorgeous, blue, eyes.

"What?" He asked. I must've been staring for a while. i didn't even notice, it felt like only a few seconds.

"Nothing. You just-" I blushed. "You have the prettiest eyes I've ever seen, and I know its weird when a girl says it to a guy, but it's true I love the color of your eyes it just-" Thomas cut off my rambling with a kiss. A passionate, sweet kiss. A kiss full of longing. He poked my lips with his tongue, making me laugh despite the moment we were having. We continued to kiss, and finally pulled apart for a breath.

"Woah. You're a good kisser." he said. I blushed. I've blushed more in the past hour than I have in the past two years.

"Oh. Um, thanks? I don't really know how to... respond to that? I, uh... you too... um..." I felt awkward, and I inhaled to sigh, but Thomas caught me in another kiss, this one more passionate than the last. I entwined my fingers into his hair, and he hugged me to him. He proceeded to pick me up.

"My room, or yours?" he joked. I laughed.

"What? Oh. You were being serious." he laughed at me thinking he was joking. "I don't care." I kissed him again. He stumbled into his room, and closed the door.

"Madalyn, I think I've been in love with you before you even had a crush on me." he said, looking into my eyes.

"I love you too." I kissed him again.

I woke up the next morning, encased in Thomas' arms. He was still asleep. I looked at the clock. 8:45. I was going to be late for class, but quickly realized I didn't care. I decided to skip my first class today. I snuggled back into Thomas' arms. I can't believe what happened last night. My wildest dream, Thomas liking me back, came true. unless I was asleep now, in which case, don't wake me up. Don't you dare.

I fell back asleep, it wasn't hard. Thomas was warm, and when I woke up, everywhere else on the bed was cold. I looked at the clock. It was almost 11. I took off my shirt and put on Thomas' shirt, and then walked out of his room. I liked his shirt better. I don't know why. He didn't have a class for an hour.

"Hi Thomas." I said. 

"Hi." He grabbed my waist, and pulled he into a hug. I leaned up to kiss him, just a quick peck, but he didn't let that happen. As I pulled down, he craned his neck to kiss me, so I met him halfway in the middle. 

My stomach chose this time to sing the songs of its people. I was hungry. Way to ruin the mood, stomach. 

"So, obviously," I said, breaking the kiss. "I'm hungry. Are you?"

"I attempted to fry bacon..." he looked ashamed. I walked into the kitchen, to see a mess of bacon grease and burnt bacon. I picked a piece up and it crumbled to charcoal in my hand.

"How did you get this out of the pan?!" I asked, laughing. I pulled the second half of the bacon package from the fridge, and pulled out a different pan.

"Um, I waited for the grease to cool, and then flipped the pan upside down." he admitted, making me laugh harder. I made bacon, and eggs. We ate, and he had to leave for class. He kissed me, and walked out the door. I decided I'd play hooky the rest of the day. I pulled out my phone.

Me: Hey Mia, can u get my hw from my classes? I don't feel good so imma stay home. 

Mia: OMG!!  is it bad??

Me: its ok, just bring my work, please 

Mia: kk 

Me: thx 

Mia: np :P 

Thomas got home two hours later, and I had successfully cleaned half the apartment.

"I thought you're supposed to be in class..." he said

"Key words there, supposed to. Not have to. I didn't feel like going."

"Why not? I left onto him, giving him a hug.

"Becauuuuuuse. I wanted to wait for you... Also the teacher was going to do a lecture on the most boringest thing ever."

"I'm not even going to ask."

"Good." I gave him a quick peck on the lips. I booped his nose, then proceeded to giggle like a little girl. Thomas was just staring at me.

"What?" I asked.

"You're just so cute when you laugh, or do anything, for that matter." I smiled, as he sat on the couch.

"What's your homework damage?" I asked.

"45 questions, a worksheet. 3 1/2 hours?"

"Darn. Okay." I walked over to him with a plate and sat on his lap. "Food. Eat. Love you. I need to clean the bathroom. I haven't done that. You haven't either... do your homework while you eat." I stood up, and walked to my room so I could change into something I didn't mind getting soaking wet. I pulled on a sports bra and a pair of shorts. I went into the bathroom, grabbing the cleaning spray and a sponge from under the sink. I sprayed the tub, and turned on the fan. It was loud, but oh well. It was needed.

I let it sit for twenty minutes, going into my room and grabbing a book. I set a timer on my phone. When it went off, I finished cleaning the bathroom, and was completely soaked.

"Madds, are you still cleaning?"

"Yeah." He walked in. 

"Oh. Hi." he was shocked at what I was wearing.

"What?"

"You look pretty hot." He smiled, and I laughed. He then kissed me, getting himself wet from the water on my shirt and shorts.

Author's Note: They didn't do it, the thought in my mind was that they were going to but were going to fast and decided to cuddle instead and according to one of my best friends, that's not what it sounded like... (I changed some things its better now)
