We left the spoon and I walked Cyrus home. Seeing as he lived quite near to me, across the road in fact, it made sense for us to go together.

"Um... Jonah?" he began.

"Yes Cyrus?" I responded.

"Can I hold your hand?" he asked.

"Of course, and in future don't ask, you can just do it" I answered.

He smiled at me again, and I could've sworn I felt my knees go weak. I felt his soft hand gently slip into mine, and I never felt more confident or joyous in my life.

"This feels so right, doesn't it?" I said.

"It really does" He concurred, giving me that adorable smile again.

As we walked, I noticed that the smile never faded from his face. I can't believe that I've never seen him this happy before, and I definitely don't believe the fact that I am the reason for it.

It was quiet, which was nice as no one was judging us and we could just be ourselves.

We were rapidly approaching our homes, but I wanted to tell Cyrus something before we got there.

"You know, in all of my life, I can't remember being so worried about upsetting someone" I stated.

"Really? Why?" Cyrus wondered "You know that I will probably never be upset with you"

"Well, you're so important in my life Cyrus" I responded "And before we spoke at the spoon, I knew that I upset you, regardless of whether you overreacted"

"I did overreact, so please don't think I'll ever be like that with you again" Cyrus said "As long as I'm with you forever I'll have no reason to be sad"

"Good, and the same goes for me" I retorted.

We arrived outside Cyrus' house and I felt a little sad that we would have to wait to see one another again. I threw my arms around him and allowed him to snuggle into my grip.

"I'm so pleased today worked out" I whispered "You're the best"

"Thank you, but you're the best" he countered "You give the best cuddles"

I taken by surprise as Cyrus looked up at me, and the kissed me. I wasn't complaining, but Cyrus was always a little bit shy, and so I wasn't expecting it.

"I can never tire of kissing and hugging you" he chuckled lightly.

I knew that there was something we hadn't said, but we should say to each other. I decided to be the one to say it first.

"I love you Cyrus" I declared "Good night my angel"

"I... I l-love you too J-Jonah" he stuttered, with true emotion in his voice "More than you can ever know. Good night sweetie"

He went into his house and as I walked to my house, I felt like jumping for joy, because finally I had got the one guy I loved.
