the gang was reunited. me and payton were at my house this time and it was only a few days before christmas. his family was coming in 2 days to celebrate with us.
we laid in my bed. he was shirtless with his arm was around me. i laid my head against my chest as we watched some random movie. it was hot in my room, but cold outside. we both had hot chocolate with marshmallows.
when the movie was over, payton took me into his arms and just held me. he didn't say much. he kissed my head and kept his lips there for a minute.
"payton-" i began. but his words interrupted mine.
"do you know how much i love you?" he asked. i didn't answer.
"you know how people date other people and then they break up. but then they find the one they are gonna marry? well i think i found her. well you. i dont think we are going to break up. i think i'm going to marry you, and be with you forever," he states. i dont respond right away. i think about what he said. that's crazy to think that he feels that way about me. i love the thought of him marrying me.
"i love you too," i say. i nuzzle my face into his neck and he rubs my back.
