Chapter 13- Feelings

[Jack's POV]

I was so annoyed with myself. Erin had gone through all that and I hadn't been there to help her, god damn it Barakat. It was okay though, because now I was here for her and I wasn't going to let her go. It's weird, I'm usually the guy that never really gets into relationships, I've never fallen in love before. But when I saw Erin I melted, she was so perfect to look at and now I knew her, she was an even more perfect person. I decided now, after she'd opened up to us all about her past, I had to tell her how I felt.

"Hey, Erin. Come over here," I whispered, pulling her to one side.

"What is it Jack?" She asked curiously.

Her eyes were red and she was still a little sniffly after crying but she still looked beautiful. I'm one of the most confident people in the world, but she meant so much to me that I was finding it hard to form the words I so desperately wanted to say.

"I- um-" I stuttered.

Fucking hell Barakat, get it together, I mentally slapped myself. She giggled at me when she saw my self-annoyance.

"It's okay Jack, you can tell me," she said and smiled.

"Well.. I um.. Okay. I know you've probably already figured this out due to the fact we made out earlier but I like you. I like you a lot. You're the most beautiful girl I've ever met and you're different to other girls, you're perfect. Will you be my girlfriend..?"

I only just managed to form the sentence without sounding retarded. I was so nervous.. What if she rejected me? I would be destroyed.

"Jack, I like you too," she finally said and blushed a deep shade of pink, "of course I'll be your girlfriend!"

My heart flipped over and turned inside out. I was so happy! I cheered out loud and Erin laughed at me, she looked so happy too. I picked her up and spun her round as she laughed and then planted a kiss on her lips which earned a few 'aw's from the others. I didn't care, I was too head over heels for this girl and I wasn't letting her go.

[Alex's POV]

Jack and Erin were adorable. I was so happy my best buddy had finally found himself someone he could stick with. His little gesture got me thinking. I needed to tell Ingrid I loved her. How was it that three words could be so difficult to say?

"Ingrid?" I said.

"Yeah?" She replied, still fangirling with Holly over 'Jerin'.

"I need to talk to you," I said quietly.

Shit, wrong words. She looked at me and panic filled her expression. She thought I was breaking up with her. Before she could say anything I pulled her up and kissed her. She relaxed then and rest her hands on my chest. I hummed happily as our kiss deepened. She pulled away as I pressed kisses on her nose and cheeks.

"Never scare me like that again, Gaskarth," she smirked.

"I was actually about to tell you the opposite of what you thought," I said and chuckled nervously.

She looked at me with a puzzled expression and waited for me to continue.

I cleared my throat and everyone turned to look.

"Ingrid," I began slowly, "I love you."

Her eyes widened in shock. Crap, was I too forward? Ugh I never got anything right.

"I love you too, Alex," she finally said and lent in to kiss me again.

"You scared me! I thought you were gonna freak out and run away!" I whined and pouted which made her kiss me again.

"Of course I wasn't going to run away," she laughed, "I just wasn't expecting you to feel the same way I did. I guess you've fallen in love with me as quickly as I've fallen in love with you..."

I grinned like an idiot and pulled her close to me. Everyone was so happy now. Mike and Holly were together, Jack and Erin too, and I knew everyone else was finally settling down with their current life situation. Nothing was wrong in the world at that moment in time.

But I went and jinxed it, didn't I?
