*Molly's POV*
Charlie and I were down by a meadow having a picnic. He's going on tour for a year and being his best friend I'm going to miss him. Since this is the longest we'll be away from each other we're trying to make the best of it. I looked at my watch to check the time.
"It's 11:11, time to make a wish" I told Charlie.
It's a tradition of ours. Whenever we're together we always make a wish at 11:11. I know it's kinda stupid but that's the way we roll. Both of us closed our eyes and made a wish. I wished that Charlie would be mine. I know. Falling in love with your best friend, only happens in books and movies. But that's what happened to me. I fell for Charlie and I fell hard. He's always on my mind 24x7. It gets frustrating sometime knowing that he may never like me more than a best friend.
When I made my wish and opened my eyes I saw Charlie already looking at me. It was not unusual for Charlie to stare at me but whenever he did I felt butterflies in my stomach.
"What did you wish for?" I asked him.
"It's a secret," he said with a hint of sadness in his eyes.
Strange. We usually tell each other what we wish for. Well, I technically lie to him because I always wish for the same thing, I want him, but I never tell him the truth. He always tells me what he wishes for though. A new car, bigger gigs and stuff like that. So what's so special about today's wish?
"Please tell me Charlie or I won't tell you mine," I threatened.
He was always eager to know what I asked for so it was a good blackmail. Charlie sighed and said, “Well if you must know, I wished that the girl I love loves me too"
WHAT??? He loves someone. No.
"Oh!" I whispered “I hope you get your wish fulfilled."
"I hope so too. Say, can you help me practice?" He asked.
"Practice what? I asked confused.
"How I should tell the girl I love how I feel," Charlie said looking at his fingers.
Uh oh. This is not going to be good. I won't be able to take it.
"I don't know Charlie," I said.
"Please babe?” he looked at me with his puppy dog eyes.
I could never resist those eyes and he knows it.
"Fine," I said.
"Here goes" Charlie said, "Molly I love you. I have loved you forever. You are my best friend and my world. I don't only want you as my girlfriend but maybe in the future as my Mrs. So what do you say Molly, will you be mine?"
I was so mesmerized by his speech that I said, "Yes."
Oh my god where did that come from.
I panicked, “I'm so sorry Charlie I didn't mean-," but Charlie cut me off, "So you don't like me?"
Huh??
"Molly don't you get it. I love YOU" Charlie said and kissed me.
I pulled away and said, "You love me? I thought it was someone else."
"I love you Molly," Charlie said.
"I love you too Charlie."
