Chapter 15

I wake up the next morning with one of my legs between Chandlers. My head lays against his chest and my arms around his slim waist.

And I thought I hated this boy. This is the complete and utter opposite.

I sit up slowly, careful not to wake the beautiful boy lying next to me. My head hurt from crying and my stomach too. I kiss his forehead gently and stand up. I stretch quickly before changing into a black tee and gray flannel. Then some skinny jeans. I brush my hair quickly in the mirror before my eyes drift back to Chandler, meeting his amused ones.

"Chandler!" I screech, turning around. "You watched!"

"You expected me not too?" He raises an eyebrow, sitting up off the bed.

"Well - I uh, thought you were asleep. You were when I got up." I say quietly, my cheeks heating up.

"See, thats where you're wrong Shae. You woke me up when you kissed me." The smirk was clearly there. 

"It was only on the forehead, Chandler." I roll my eyes, picking up the brush again and finishing what I was doing before. I pull my hair up into a pony tail.

"It was still a kiss. But I would have preferred one right - here." He points to his lips, walking over to me. 

Fucking.
Adorable.

"What about Ha-"

"She cheated." His voice is quick and sharp, cutting me off. His smirk had fallen as soon as I asked. I frown, stepping closer to him and sliding my arms around his waist, pressing my forehead to his chest. "With the guy.. whats his name... Ty? She said it was easier. They're closer together and are able to see each other. She didn't even tell me. Brooke did." Chandler whispers, standing still in my embrace.

"How did you get contact to her?" I whisper back.

"I took my phone back Wednesday." He answers quietly, letting out a small sigh.

Its silent for a good 5 minutes while I comfort him, my hand running up and down his back.

"I was supposed to go identify my Mothers body yesterday. I couldn't. I told them I would. And you're dad has probably recieved tons of calls from them. But I couldn't. I ended up being with you, which is much better." I sigh, biting my lip.

"Can I admit something to you, Shaelee?" Chandler whispers, playing absentmindedly with my fingers.

"Anything." I smile gently, looking up at his sweet face.

"I have unbelievably, and utterly fallen in love with you. Everything about you. Your smile. Your voice. The way you walk. Your accent. Your humor. Absolutely - everything. To me, you are perfect." I feel my breath catch in my throat as his eyes meet mine. I love you, too. "Now, I can't promise that things won't be broken. But I swear that I will never leave. Please stay forever with me."

"Fuck, Chandler." I kiss his bare neck gently. "I love you, too."

Chandler lays his head on mine, holding me tightly. "You're all I'll ever need." I add, squeezing him tightly. "And honestly? All I want."

A few minutes pass and were still standing in the middle of the beach house attic, holding onto each other as if we're going to float away. 

I pull away, smiling toothlessly up to him weakly. "Could you come with me to identify my Mom." I whisper.
