(Anna's POV)

I am currently sitting on the edge of the briedge. Yes THE briedge. And i am just looking at the stars without moving not averting my eyes.
I am just thinking.
We danced with Ed and i didnt know how to tease him but i did know how to bag him.

Flashback

"Oh hon! I didnt know u could dance that good" i said to him continuing this mornings joke.
And i touch his arm like i was encouraging him.
"Excuse me what?" Ed asked confused.
Dont laugh, dont laugh, u will confront yourself. I thought.
But... lets take it further.

I dance a bit closer to him.
"Why so confused, babe?" I askes and grabbed his wraist to pull him even closer to me.
He had a blank look. I swear it was like his brain had stopped working.
Then i took his hands and placed them around around my wraist.
In any other situation i would have blushed and run away. But not this time. No.
I was having way too much fun.
"Ed... is something wrong, sweetie?" I asked pretending to be innocent. And got my face closer to his and looked at him as if i was concerned when all i really wanted was to burst out to laughter.
I carried on looking at him as if concerned. Profound mistake.
Cause once i stared into his eyes for more than two seconds i was stuck, trapped there. My expression changed and he figured it out.
"Omg, Anna are u really carrying on with that prank?!" He asked.
"Yep" i said smilling not stepping away from him. We were dancing few inches apart which made my heart rate speed up.
I grabbed his hands which he had taken off of my wraist. This time i just hold them and we dance our faces inches apart.
"So... untill now u seem like u are gonna lose that dare" Ed said.
"Oh, i think i already won." I answered.
"That wasnt tease." He said.
"What is, then?" I asked him.
All out of a sudden without even following the rythym he let go one of my hand and turned me around and then he... pulled me on to him.
No gap between us, our lips almost touching.
"So this is teasing?" I asked him stepping back.
"Yep and u are going to lose that dare." He said to me challenging.
"Oh, yeah? I dont think i will" i said to him.
I then took his hands placed them at my wraist and put mine at his neck. Then i broke apart, turned around, grabbed his hands and put tjem around me. I kept dancing with my back onto his body.
"What do u say? Dont u agree?" I asked as i tuened to face him again.
"Mmm maybe.." he said.
Ok, at that moment i had to admit i was having too much fun to think logically.
So i just placed my hand at his neck and kissed him at the edge of his lips. It was a butterfly kiss. Like those u give your aunt bit u do the mistake and kiss her too near to her lips.
The only difference?
I did it on purpose.

The song ended and i took a step back.
"So, did i win?" I asked him satisfied with my actions. Untill i saw his face. He was blushing like crazy!
"Um.. yeah, i guess u did"  he said and we went back to the group.

Flashback over.

The atmosphere in there was too akward so i decided to take a walk and i end up here.
At the briedge.
I heard footsteps from behind me but i didnt bother to look. There was only one person who would came here right now.
He sit next to me. But he didnt said anything.
I turned to face him.
Ed was looking down thoughtful.
"I am.." just about when i was going to apologize he connected our lips into a passionate kiss.
I immidiately kissed back putting my hand on his neck to bring his closer.
We pulled apart and we stared to each other for a while.
"Anna... i like u." He said.
I couldnt help but smille. So much that my face hurt.
"Me too." I said.
He smilled back. But his smile was bittersweat.
"Anna i really like u but u dont know everything about me." He said.
"What do u mean?" I asked him.
"Our gang... running around drawing was just the begging. We eventually end up stealing for the homeless and we... we even tried to stop drugdealers. And we did. Many times. But then the police went after us because we, i killed drug dealers. I killed somebody Anna. The gang didnt broke apart because i left. We were almost busted. I was hunted by the police untill i moved. And with the passage of time the issue was forgotten.
But the fact that i , we have killed somebody has never been forgiven. And i cant live with it. Its really difficult to live with the fact that i am a murder. But everyone we killed they deserved it. Can u understand this?" He asked me.
My mind was blank. I couldnt proccess all these information so i just noded.
"Can u understand that these actions are past? History?"  He asked me again, tears running down his face.
I noded again.
"Can u understand that i needed u to know the true Andrew and everythink i have done because i realky like you?" He asked.
I noded and pulled him close and hugged him.
I hugged him, crying along with him and felt his emotions.
I felt Ed, the Ed i knew regretful of what he has done, hunted by his guilt. But hugging him i felt another part of him. I felt like i was hugging a stranger, a murderer. I wanted to understand him but right now, i couldnt.
So we broke apart and k headed home with tears running down my face.
Ed kissed me. Ed likes me. Ed... Who is Ed? Cause tonight a figured out Andrew Phillip isnt who i thought it was.
The boy i liked admitted he finally liked me. But who is really the boy i like him. How bittersweat!
