i look at him, "wha- what do you mean?" i say.
"i have no girlfriend," he says.
"you're kidding," i say.
he shakes his head, "nope."
"wow." i say.
he smirks and hovers over me, "come gimme a kiss," he says.
"no." i say.
"aw please." he says.
"nope," i say.
he leans in to kiss me and i move my head out of the way.
"oh come on," he says.
"haha sucks to be you," i say.
he leans in to kiss me again and i move again.
"anna, come on now," he says.
i laugh, "sorry buddeh."
he grabs my chin and then kisses me. he wraps his other arm around my back. i kiss him back. he smirks in the kiss.
he pulls away and looks at me.
"what?" i say.
"you gave in," he says.
"aw yeah boo hoo, we both knew i would." i say and he smiles.
"you're not wrong," he says.
he goes back to sitting on me and i roll my eyes, "joey i'm seriously really fucking sorry," i say.
"i know anna."
"no you don't, i shouldn't have tried to get you jealous, i'm so sorry," i say.
"anna i know. i shouldn't have tried to hurt you either," he says.
"no i deserved it," i say.
he frowns, "i'm sorry," he says.
"no. you shouldn't be apologizing. i'm the one who should be apologizing."
"anna-"
"no joey seriously. it was entirely wrong of me to hurt you that way. i really didn't know how to tell you i liked you and i ended up hurting you. i'm so sorry joey. i really do really really like you and if you're willing to, i want to try and give us a chance," i say.
he looks at me, "anna, i really like you and i want to give us a chance too, so will you do the honor and be my girlfriend?" he asks.
i nod and he grabs my face and kisses me. i kiss him back and he smiles.
we both pull away, "i'm so sorry joey," i say.
"anna, stop apologizing."
"but i feel so bad joey," i say.
"anna, hey, look at me," he says and grabs my face.
"what?"
"you don't need to apologize because i forgive you," he says.
"okay, can we make a promise?" i ask.
"yes," he says.
"can we promise to not keep anything from one another and to always be honest?"
he smiles, "yes anna of course."
i smile and hug him, "good. i dont want to lose you."
"you'd never lose me," he says.
"good." i say.
joey lays down next to me and wraps his arms around me, "you're so beautiful," he says.
"don't start," i say.
"no seriously anna. you are," he says.
"joey. don't."
"anna dead fucking ass, don't even get me started."
"i won't. don't worry."
he laughs, "ill star anyways. your smile, oh my god. i lights up a whole goddamn room. it's so cute oh my god. your eyes. i could look at them for hours and get lost in them. your hair, it's just amazing. it's so silky and soft i love it. your hugs, they make me want to melt. anna you have no idea what you do to me."
i look at him, "you are my whole fucking world," i say.
"you are mine anna. you make my world complete. all past aside from us. you mean the most to me. no matter how many times we fight. no matter what. you mean the entire world to me."
i smile, "joey stop."
"no anna. you don't understand. i've liked you since literally day one. your dad told me not to make myself known to you but i couldn't hide anymore. i'm sorry if things have moved so fast but i dont want to lose you. you are my world anna," he tells me.
"joey-"
"no let me finish. you always know how to lighten my day. you always can put a smile on my face. i love when we cuddle. it makes my whole night. i live teasing you because i love seeing you mad. it's adorable when you're mad. the way your eyes light up when i say your name, makes my heart go wild. you mean so fucking much to me anna. if i ever lost you, i don't know what i would ever do." he says.
i tear up, "i'm so sorry," i say.
"for what princess?" he asks.
"for ever hurting you. i regret it all joey. i should've just told you that i liked you when i first knew i did. i'm so sorry for hurting you," i tell him.
"anna it's in the past and you are forgiven. lets live in the present and forget about it, please," he says and holds my face.
i nod, "okay, let's live in the present," i say.
he smiles and kisses me again.
"i love you annamaria."
"i love you too joey."
i love you too.
