"Why were you with him?" Zach shouted, throwing his hands out to the sides.
"Because he's my friend!" I yelled back, becoming frustrated.
"Well stop! I don't want you around him!" Zach stated.
"Well, I don't care what you want! You're not my boyfriend and I'm not your girlfriend!"
With that, I grabbed my phone and stormed out his front door, leaving him standing alone, shocked, in his apartment.

I pulled into my best friends' driveway and got out of my car, slamming the door shut. She already opened the front door, letting me stomp inside.
"I'm a motherfuckin' train wreck! I don't want to want him, but I miss his touch! I hate when he's with another girl, yet I shouldn't, because he isn't my fucking boyfriend! And he has the audacity to yell at me and tell me that I can't hang out with someone, just because he's a guy. Like, who says that to someone, even if you are dating! And we aren't even dating! I don't understand him, he's so ...so...arrogant!" I ranted, throwing my phone and car keys.
"Do you like him?" my best friend asked, not even giving any thought to what I had just said.
"What?" I asked, confused.
"Do you like Zach?" she repeated.
"I...um...I.." I stuttered.
"Yeah, you like him," she stated, making me cringe.
Of course I liked him, but I didn't want to.
"Well, news flash! He likes you too!" she smiled, talking to me like I was dumb.
"No, no he doesn't," I said, refusing to believe what she just said.
"Yes, he does. He wouldn't be mad at you for hanging out with other boys unless he liked you. He's jealous. And neither of you ever want the other to touch anybody else. Hell, he shoved that guy out of the way that tried to walk up to you in the mall that one time. He likes you! And you like him!" she explained, causing me to internally freak out.
"So, stop being petty and throwing your shit around my room, and go get your man!" she bossed, pulling me down the stairs and shoving me out the front door.

♡

I stood on Zach's doorstep, my hands shaking.
While I was driving here, I got a sudden boost of confidence, and I felt prepared to tell him how I felt.
Now that I'm actually here, standing on his doorstep, rain falling down, I felt small and unprepared. Any confidence that I had, left me.
I took a deep breath and was about to knock on the door, when the door swung open, revealing a stressed looking Zach.
"Zach," I breathed, every single thought leaving my head.
"I was just leaving to look for you, but I guess I don't have to now," he smiled.
I smiled back and we just stayed like that for a while, smiling at each other and enjoying each others presence.
"Oh, here, come inside, it's raining," he laughed, pulling me inside.
He closed the door behind me and then turned around to me.
I shivered from being soaked by the rain and Zach immediately took action.
He pulled me to the fireplace, where a fire was crackling and let me sit in front of it. He walked into the kitchen and walked back out a few minutes later with a two mugs in his hands and a huge blanket draped over his right arm.
He walked towards me and handed me the mug, which was filled with hot chocolate.
He sat down next to me and wrapped the blanket around both of us.
"So," he started.
"So," I continued.
"I'm sorry for yelling at you earlier, I shouldn't have," he apologized.
"No, it's okay, I was yelling too," I replied.\
"Yeah, but-"
I cut him off, not being able to contain myself.
"I love you, Zach! I'm sorry for blowing up and storming out earlier, but I was frazzled. Neither of us wants to see the other with somebody else and we most definitely don't want to see each other touching someone else. I don't know if you feel the same, but I really hope you do because if not, then I just embarrassed myself really bad," I chuckled.
"Of course I feel the same, that's why I'm so overprotective of you. I love you too," he admitted.
I cuddled up to him, his head resting on mine as we sat in a peaceful silence in front of the fireplace, just enjoying each other.
Just enjoying the moment we had both been waiting forever for.
