Come See About Me

You Already Did

(Dean P.O.V)

Where's Seth and Paige?!" "That's where they are. Back at our area, but they're talking right now. He didn't need the drink, so it's all good." Roman explained. "No, no, no, no... it's NOT all good!" "Babe, what's going on? What did you do?" Renee asked me with an eyebrow risen. "It's not what I did... IT'S WHAT FOX IS ABOUT TO DO!" I warned once again. "What's that crazy Foxy up to now?" Nia asked me with an irritated look on her face. "It's not just Foxy, it's---"

"KALAN?!"

A Few Minutes Earlier

(Paige P.O.V)

"... And I never should have acted that way towards you like I did." Seth admitted to me after apologizing several times for the way he had acted out before. Or in other words, for treating me like a complete asshole. An apology was exactly what I needed to hear and it made me feel really good. Finally, we were slowly making progress after an entire year of hating each other. Well, that was never the case. Truth is, I couldn't hate Seth even if I had tried to and I knew he felt the same way about me. He had to. I just needed him to tell me. Tell me his true feelings--- I swear if he did, we would not only make progress, but hopefully begin a new chapter in our lives together. A chapter where we're both happy and proud to be in each other's lives. Caring, supporting, and loving each other the way it was always supposed to be. At least, that's what I wanted to believe.

"I should be apologizing too." I told him. "No. No, you've already said your apologies to me many times before and I denied you of that. Really, I shouldn't have and that's my fault." Seth owned up to his actions once again. I'm glad he could put his pride aside and own up to his mistakes. I've owned up to my terrible mistake from over a year ago and the feeling of finally being free of that was such a relief. Seth had forgiven me and I was more than willing to forgive him. I understand why he acted out that way towards me, but now I just really wanted the apologizing to stop. I wanted his feelings to be out there on the table. I wanted to hear the truth, but he was holding back. Maybe if I confessed my true feelings to him, he would open up too.

"Look, you don't have to apologize anymore, Seth. I forgive you. It's okay, I promise." I assured him. "Look, I just want things to go back to the way they once were. Maybe even..." I was about to mention something further, but was cut off my an ecstatic Seth. "Yes! Me too! That's all I've really wanted since the beginning of all of this." Seth said quickly, then breathed a sigh of relief as he was glad to see that I felt the same way about it. However, there was more to it for me... "Good. But I..." "Wait, I have another confession too." Seth said before I could finish. Usually, I'd be annoyed by getting cut off, but this was the moment that I've been waiting for. Seth was about to confess his true feelings for me! Sure, I was willing to confess mine first, but to hear it from him would really mean the world to me.

My heart raced in my chest as I readied myself to listen to Seth. The once loud and packed room surrounding us grew quiet, as if we were the only two here at this party. "Look, Paige... this might be my only chance to say this to you, so I might as well just come on out with it and lay all my cards out onto the table." Seth said as he seemed like he took a deep breath and grew a bit nervous. It was never easy telling someone how you truly feel about them for the first time. We've known each other for years and it's been all love, ever since. But behind that platonic love, were always true, but hidden feelings. Feelings that we never knew of because of one slip up that changed the both of our worlds for over a year... Now, here we were slowly finding our way back to each other and searching to find a way into one another's hearts... permanently.
