Him, Them, Me || A Rebel Coast FanFic|| ***UNEDITED***

4.-{New Feelings}

People were packed in my house. Half the people I didn't even know.

"Ray!" a voice slurred behind me.

I looked to see Ryan grinning at me, while he had a hand over some blond's shoulder.

"Yes?" I said, as the blond glared at me.

Wha?

"You look great. You should dress up more like this. Didn't know you have all those curves," Ryan laughed.

Oh god, how drunk is he? My face was flaming when I walked away. Ryan usually does, or says things he can't remember when he is somber. Angelo was talking into some red head's ear until he saw me. For some reason, I hate how Angelo does that. Ever since he got hurt by his last girlfriend, I'm afraid for him. It was a mess when she broke up with him, and now, I'm extra cautious about the girls he likes, or hooks up with. He's more emotional then the others.

"Ray," he said as he started to get off my couch.

I shook my head and walked away. He knows that I worry, and yet, he doesn't really care. I guess that's one of the perks for having guy best friends.

~**~

I decided to go for a walk. The party was great, but I needed to get away from it for a bit. I plugged in my head phones and listened to Counting Stars by One Republic. The city lights of Ontario were beautiful. The light summer breeze was dancing on my skin. I was smiling, as I wondered what it would be like to have a boyfriend. I felt a hand grab my arm, and I turned around alarmed.

"Ray!" Angelo breathed out, as I have no doubt he ran.

"Yeah?" I asked, wondering what the heck was he doing here.

"Why did you leave?" he asked, catching his breath.

"Eh...I just needed some time to myself," I said as I stared at the lights over the hill we just happen to stop by.

"Oh..." Angelo sounded disappointed.

It was a very awkward silence, that I had to break it.

"Angelo, do you like me?" my heart was pounding in my ears as I said this.

I had to ask. We always had a better connection then the other guys. We understood each other more. And over the summer, when his girlfriend broke up with him, and I helped comfort him, something changed. And I had to know what.

I looked at Angelo, my heart racing. He seemed to be looking for a good answer. Uh oh.

"Yes," he whispered, that I barely heard him.

I nodded and took a deep breath. That's what I thought. I closed my eyes, as my heart rate slowed down.

"Do you like me?" Angelo asked.

My eyes burst open, and my heart rate started up again. I don't know what to say. Angelo was amazing. He was everything a girl could ask for. The way his style of hair looked, was beyond sexy. His eyes were the second most perfection I adored about him. The first being his voice, which was angelic. The way his lips curled, that always had thoughts taunt me about kissing him.

"Can I take a rain check on that?" I asked as I couldn't come up with an answer.

I heard Angelo sigh.

"No," he said.

My head shot towards him. Never, had he pushed for something. I guess he really wants to know.

"I can't put it into thoughts," I said, as I began to walk on the grass and lay down looking up at the stars.

I heard Angelo lay beside me.

"Then just blurt out what you think," Angelo said.

Where do I begin?
