Tia's POV

"Celestia?" The boy says.

"Yes, that's my name," I say.

"Wow, it's pretty," he smiles as I glanced at Preston.

He looked a little angsty. Was he... jealous?

We took out milkshakes and fries as we sat at the tables.

"Are you planning to stay in Colorado?" Preston asks.

"Yes, well, I don't know really," I say, "I know I want to get more out of life than staying in one place."

"Would you ever move here?" Preston asks.

"Here? Oh, I don't know, I don't like my stepmom, probably not," I say.

"I'm not staying here either," Preston says.

"Really?" I say.

"I want to go somewhere to find an adventure. Somewhere else," he says.

He's biting his lip.

Damn, do you want to be the death of me? Is that your whole plot? To kill me on the inside.

Preston's POV

I looked at Tia.

Celestia, what a beautiful name. She's gorgeous and I don't think I could ask for anything more. Am I...?

No...

I can't.

But I just can't help it.

Kiss her, do it... you know you want to.

I grabbed her face and crashed my lips into hers.

This is what she meant in the beginning by don't get attached to me...

Tia's POV

I felt my face being grasped as I found my lips on Preston's. He was rough, sweet and savory.

What the hell is going on? This isn't just kissing. Me and Preston have hooked up many times before but this was something else.

I pulled away and looked at him.

"Preston... are you... in love with me?" I ask scared.

"I... Celestia... I don't know Tia..." he says holding my hands.

"What do you mean you don't know?" I say, "do you realize what happened? You just..."

"Tia," he says, "fine... I do!"

My eyes were widened.

"You... what?"

"I'm in love with you Tia, you're a rare type that every guy wants," Preston says, "you're the girl every guy fantasizes over... god I don't know how I fell-..."

"I love you too," I muttered out.

"Tia, you don't need to lie to me, I know you don't," he says.

"I do," I say, "I love you Preston. Even if we only have a short time together, I love you. I don't fall for people this easily, so do not ever betray me."

He just looked at me.

"Tia," he smiles as he kissed me.

It was only a fling, how did it end up like this?

Preston's POV

I awoke with birds chirping in the morning. The sun beat down through my blinds as memories of last night filled my mind. After grabbing food we went to my house and well... the rest was history. I glanced over next to me to see Tia sleeping on my chest. I rubbed her back with my hand as she gets closer.

Was that real? Did I really kiss her and say the L word?

I did...

And I never regret it.

"I love you Tia," I smile as she grins.

I move the hair from her face and I rub her cheek.

Tia and I against the world
