The country boy lives next door

Chapter 5

Bella's POV
I woke with a smile on my face, I don't know why but he popped into my head. His smile, his brown eyes, his horrible fashion taste but then again he is a country boy so I can't complain too much. He was perfectly imperfect and for some reason I loved that about him. I haven't even known him for a month and I'm already thinking about how cute he is. Ugh, this boy has gotten into my head and I don't know how to get him out, I ju-
"Bella! Are you awake?" I heard Sapphire scream up the stairs, cutting me out of my thoughts.
"Yes Saph, I'm awake!" I yelled back before getting up and going to the bathroom to take a shower.
After my shower I did my morning routine and then I went downstairs for breakfast. Once I was at the bottom of the stairs Sapphire attacked me with a hug. She was feeling much better.
"Guess who just asked me out!" She squealed, more liked screamed.
"Who?" I said not really up for guessing this early in the morning.
"You're no fun, anyway, Jackson Murphy asked me out!!" She was jumping for joy, literally.
"Saph, I'm so happy for you but you know I'm not a morning person so can you stop squealing and jumping?" I asked in a serious tone.
"Okay fine. Breakfast is on the counter. I know how much you love chocolate chip pancakes so I made some this morning." She said and then walked into the living room.
Did she just say chocolate chip pancakes? YES SHE DID. YAY!! I love chocolate chip pancakes, they're delicious, but they are messy too.
"Bella someone is here to see you!" Sapphire yelled from the hallway as I was stuffing my face with pancakes. Great.
Who would want to see me this early? And then walked in the one person I did not want to have see me with chocolate all over my face. Why is this happening to me? He just chuckled and grabbed some paper towels off the counter and wiped the chocolate off my face. I swallowed the pancakes and looked at him.
"Bain, what are you doing here?" I asked in a shocked tone.
"I'm here to see you, like Sapphire said. I didn't know you liked chocolate chip pancakes." He had this amused look on his face. I can not believe him.
"That was embarrassing. Please don't bring it up again" I begged him.
"Why was that embarrassing?" He asked, clearly not noticing how I was trying to hide my body from him.
"Come on Bain, it's obvious why it's embarrassing for me." I said, not making eye contact with him.
"Because you're bigger than most girls? Seriously Bella? You think I care about that?" He said, disbelief lacing his voice.
"Yes, Bain, because I'm bigger than most girls." I still hadn't looked at him, feeling embarrassed still.
He walked over to me and lifted my chin up, making me look into his eyes, and then he said something that I never thought he would say to me.
"Bella, you're beautiful no matter what size you are. You are the most gorgeous girl I've ever met. And I wouldn't change you for the world. You are perfect." He looked me in the eyes as he said that.
"You just met me, Bain. How could you think I was perfect?" I asked him shyly.
"Because in the time I have gotten to know you, I have noticed a girl who lights up a room as soon as she walks in, a girl who doesn't need makeup because she is naturally beautiful. You're beautiful Bella, no matter if you believe me or not. I think you're so gorgeous." At this point I was almost in tears, I can't believe he thinks of me that way.
Should I believe him?
