Crazy About You (A Moey Fanfic)

Chapter 5: I Think I Love You

Joey’s POV

I jumped and fell into my bed. After, I screamed into my pillow but not out of anger but of joy. What just happened was electric.

I connected with Meghan in such a way that I couldn’t’ stand to be apart from her. I looked at my phone for a text from her but there weren’t any. 

I decided that I was going to call her. I picked up my phone and dialed Meghan’s number. To my surprise, she picked up almost immediately.

 “Hello?” Meghan asked.  “Oh. Hey Meghan, I was just wondering if I could take you up on that offer” I replied. I was able to hear her giggle through the phone and I turned a bright red.

“Aren’t you full? We just ate” Meghan said. Damn. Meghan caught me. I couldn’t think of anything to say.

There became this awkward silence through the phone. If I hung up, what would she think?

“I-I don’t mean now. I was just wondering if you could come with me to look at some houses with me” I blurted out. “Houses?” Meghan asked. “Is something wrong with you and Sawyer?” she continued. “No. He’s great. It’s just that the Wi-Fi here sucks and I just can’t anymore” I said.                                                                                                                    

I don’t know what is wrong with me. Why do I keep lying to her? “I’ll be right over then” I heard Meghan say before she hung up. I didn’t get to say bye and I threw my phone into the couch in frustration. What did I just do?

“Meghan, can’t you see I just want to spend time with you” I whispered to myself.

Meghan’s POV

I took hold of my purse and left the house. Before I left, David stopped me. “Where are you going?” David asked. “I’m going out” I said and then I left. David has really been on my back after I told him that I have fallen in love. After a couple of minutes of walking, I was standing in front of the café Joey told me to wait by.

Joey didn’t seem to be here. I stood in the middle of the sidewalk waiting for Joey to come. I couldn’t believe I had to wait. As I checked the time on my phone, someone wrapped their hands around my waist and I screamed in fear. People stared at me but from behind I heard laughter. It was Joey’s laugh.

“Joey! Why did you scare me?” I yelled. He was laughing so hard that he couldn’t speak. Without any consent, he swung me around. “I did it because it’s fun” Joey answered. I hit him playfully on the arm and he smiled.

Joey took me into his car and he drove for about 30 minutes. When we got out I saw the “For Sale” sign on the lawn of the house. I couldn’t believe he was really doing this. Joey and I walked around the house and I could tell that he was thinking about something.

“What are you thinking about Joey” I asked. “Just wondering if this is the perfect house” he responded. He looked into my eyes, afraid to speak. “It’s not” he finally said.

We visited a few other houses and nothing. Joey didn’t like any of them. Personally, I didn’t like any of them either. It seemed hopeless until we were on the last house on Joey’s list.

When we got out of the car, the house already spoke to me. From the outside it looked magnificent. The inside was even better. This was the type of house I always dreamed of. This house couldn’t get any better.

When I looked at the garden in the back of the house, I knew that this house was perfect. I noticed that Joey kept an eye on me as I was exploring the house.

 As I was checking out the bedroom, Joey came up to me and placed his hands on my shoulders and said “This is the one. It’s perfect.”
