New Girl. | Khalid X Ella Mai {Complete}✔

Ch. 16

He pulls up at her driveway. He took a deep breath, and walks to her door. He was nervous, thinking he would mess up again. He knocks on the door. After 4 seconds of waiting, someone answers the door. It was Ella Mai's mom.

"Oh hey hun."

"Hi, is uh... Ella Mai here?"

"Yes she was expecting you, come on in!"

She lets him in. He slowly steps inside. He noticed a lot of pictures of her family. He could see little Ella Mai sitting on a log. He examines that picture. She was sitting on her dad's lap, while the mother was next to her. He smiles a bit.

"That was her father."

He goes to the hallways. More pictures appeared. She surely does have a nice family. He was interested in seeing her family pictures. Ella Mai came out.

"Khalid, you're here!"

She walks to him, and gave him a hug. She pulls him to her room, and they sat on the bed. It was silent for a while. She tries to think of what to say.

"That night hurted me." She started.

"I know, and it shouldn't have happened."

He turns away. He felt really bad.

"I almost lost the girl of my dreams over this whole popularity mess."

She scoots closer to him, and lays her head on his shoulder.

"You know how much I love you, right?"

"Yes, and hopefully you know how much I love you too." He tells her.

She smiles.

"I don't wanna lose you, Khalid."

"Really?"

"You've really done something to me."

He lays on her head.

"Whatever it was, it's bringing us closer." He smirks.

She giggles.

"Promise me you won't hurt me again."

"Whatever's keeping us from getting closer, I'll shut that down just for you." He said.

She hugs him. After a while of hugging, they looked into each other's eyes. They kissed. Her mom peeped in. She smiles. She quietly shuts the door.

Khalid came back home. His mom was home too. She was going through her mail. She looks up at smiling Khalid. She smiles.

"Someone looks happy."

"I sure am, ma."

"Got your girl back?"

"Technically we were never really parted." He shrugs.

"This for you."

She handed him his mail. Khalid looks at it.

"Probably junk."

"Mmmn, read it." She tells him.

"Okay okay."

He opens the mail. It was a letter from Southern Florida University. He sighs nervously.

"Awhl man."

He began reading the letter. A smile crept on his face. He suddenly jumped in excitement.

"What is it?"

"Ma, I got accepted to SFU!"

"OMG!!!"

She, too, jumped in excitement. She gave Khalid a hug, and kisses him all over his face. She smothers him.
