My eyes widened at the realization of what Robert had just told me. "What?" I asked again, my hands shaking. "I said I like you." He looked at the ground, shaking his drink, hearing the ice clink around.

My heart pounded. "I like you too." I muttered. Robert stopped on the sidewalk, "Huh?" He asked. "I said I like you too." I let out a shaky breath.

He smiled widely, his cheeks darkening as he did, and he grabbed my hand. "I don't wanna leave you." He said, his bottom lip being pulled between his teeth.

I frowned and admired how he looked right now. "I don't want you to leave me." I muttered, pushing my face against his chest. He played with my hair and continued walking. I'm surprised we didn't trip over, hanging onto each other the whole way back to my car throughout the parking lot.

He slipped into the passenger door just as I did to the driver's side. I sighed and looked over at him. "Robert?" I asked. He looked at me, "Hm?"

I caressed his cheek and smiled, looking back to the road as I started to drive. He held onto my hand as it was pressed against his cheek the whole way home. It made me so happy for him to be here with me. And for him to admit he had feelings for me made me ecstatic.

I parked in the driveway and got out, walking over to the other side and making my way up to the house. I grabbed my key and unlocked my door, Robert standing behind me with the left overs we had.

We walked inside and I watched as he sat the left overs down on the coffee table as I dropped the keys on the couch. "So... you like me?" I said, leaning against the couch.

He turned, his curls swaying. He nodded his head and I smiled. He looked at my curiously as I gave him a look that said 'ask me to be your girlfriend.'

"You want me to ask you?" He said, walking towards me. I shrunk, getting shy, but I nodded my head. "Oh it's my honor."

I looked up at him. He grabbed my hand. "Olivia Jacks, will you do the honor of being my girlfriend." He said, taking another step further. I smiled and nodded, "Of course, Robert Sheehan."

He grinned and leaned in, pausing for a second. His lips grazed over mine and my breath hitched. I closed the gap to which he let out a surprised gasp, but let go of my hand and grabbed my waist. Our lips moved together quite smoothly as the silence in the room was almost ear ringing.

He pulled away, blushing, his lips a little swollen. "Don't leave then."
