Nikki's POV

"I love you, Nikki.... i love you."

Hearing those words come out if his mouth has me in so many emotions.

I'm shocked- Shocked because i know how he is. He is like me. Hard with trusting, Hateful, stubborn, and scared. Stuff like this terrifies people like us. Like him. Like me.

I'm confused- It's not that I don't believe it, because i know he wouldn't put himself through the ringer like this is he didn't. It's just, he seemed so distant all the time and the times when he wasn't, ended in him pushing me away because i was too much...

But I'm also happy- I'm happy because he finally said what i didn't know i wanted to hear, something I didn't know i wanted until it happened. He finally said something that was worth saying, something that meant something to me

The only thing was... could i say it back? Do i say it back?

What if i do, and everything crumbles again?

What if i do... and we drift apart faster than we already are?

What if i say it... but once i do, we realize that we don't?

I just stand there, all these thoughts running through my head, a look of sheer panic I'm sure laid across my face.

"...Nik?" He whispers

"I love you too." I feel like I practically yelled it before jumping in to his arms

"Wait, seriously?" He asks as he holds me

"Yes. I know it may not seem like it, and I'm sorry for that. But i do, so much." I smile as i continue to hug him

"That makes me to fucking happy." He squeezes me tighter

"This is so much fucking cuter than I thought it would be." Angel squeals in happiness

"You knew!?" I whip myself around and look at her

"tesSA LETS GO." Angel yells as she grabs Tessa's arm and they run off

"Congrats!" Tessa yells as she is being dragged away

"So, what do ya say? Celebrate with ice cream?" Zach smiles as he pokes his head in between Jack and I's

"Hell yea." I laugh

"What are we waiting for?" Jack asks as we all begin to walk back to the van

We go out and get our ice cream, then head back to the boy's house

"Ahh shit." I roll my eyes as i read my phone

"Zach, grab your camera. Jack, come with me." I sigh as i go into Jack's room

"Why?" They both ask in unison as they separate

"I have to upload tomorrow, but i don't have a camera or a video idea." I sigh once more and plop onto the bed

"How about- 20 questions: boyfriend Vs. best friend who knows me best?" Zach smiles as he comes into the room and sets up his camera

"That'll work. Good idea, heroine." I smile and pat the spot next to me
