You & Me ~ MystreetZane x Reader

28. Y/N

🍃🍃🍃

If I were to describe how I feel, then I wouldn't be able to give you an accurate description.

It's like having your first ice cream after hearing so many stories about how delicious it is. But then again it feels like my cone would be taken away from me after I've had my first lick.

I feel so close to Zane. My heart is beating ninety miles per hour and my face is hot from Zane holding it. His lips fit perfectly on mine, like the final puzzle piece. His fringe brushes against my forehead. I breathe in his soft, intoxicating scent and I melt onto him. I wrap my arms around the back of his neck and pull him closer to me. I'm so aware of everything about him and I just want us to stay in this little bubble for who cares how long.

But I realize it's just wishful thinking when Zane slowly pulls away from our kiss, somehow breaking the fantasy-like atmosphere and tossing me back into heavy reality. I open my eyes and they meet his hypnotizing, so-deep-I'm-drowning blue eyes. Red paints over the dark freckles on his cheeks. All this I savored, in fear I might never get to experience something quite as amazing as this again.

My breath is shallow as I waited for something I thought was inevitable. Zane might run away, overwhelmed by everything that I said. He might apologize and say that it was because he didn't know what else to do, because I was the first friend he has ever had. Maybe this was all a stupid dream and I would end up back on earth from the heaven I came from.

Zane closed his eyes again, and pressed his forehead against mine. What on earth is he doing?

"Y/N..."

I winced, and I shut my eyes as well.

"... I like you."

My eyes fly open and I almost jump back. Zane looks at my shocked expression and smirks, stifling a laugh. He puts his hand in the pockets of his coat.

"I've liked you since the day we've met. But I couldn't find the courage to ever tell you and I constantly wonder if it's better to be friends. And it was really hard. Do you remember the party? When Laurance put his arm around you? I felt so upset but I just couldn't tell you why."

My mind replays the conversation Aph and I had a while ago:

"At the party, Laurance put his arm around you, remember? Zane was really jealous!"

Good thing she's not here. I would hate to have her say, "I told you so!" in a moment like this.

"Seeing you two together," he continues, "I thought you would be better off with him instead of me."

I look at Zane as if he were a little boy denied of his treat. "Aww, Zane... To be honest, I'm so much better when I'm with you." I take his hand and smile up at him. He smiles back.

We stand there for a moment, and suddenly everything becomes awkward.

"So... What happens now?" Zane questions.

"Do we... date? I ask.

We both look at each other and we both know.

"Aph?"

"Aph."
