Not once had Anne hung out with Gilbert that day. And truth be told; they missed one another. Anne had this weird feeling in her gut every time she was around him. And it was bugging her deeply.
"I need to talk to Marilla; she'll know what to do." Anne said to herself after plopping onto her bed. She was thinking about everything that had happened that day, and she regretted not hanging out or even making a conversation with Gilbert.
"Why do I have to be so stupid sometimes?!" Anne yelled while wacking herself with her pillow. Then slowly dazing off into one of her wonderful daydreams.

It was finally the weekend so Anne took the opportunity to go see Marilla. She got a ride from Diana and thankfully she didn't question Anne because even Anne was questioning herself. When they got there, Anne thanked Diana with a big hug, went inside, signed in, and basically ran to Marilla's room.
"What's the big rush?" Marilla said a little startled at how abruptly Anne came into the room.
"Sorry; sorry, I, need, to, talk, to, you." Anne said in between breaths realizing how out of shape she was.
"Well calm down child. I can't understand you like that." Marilla said in her normal tone.
"I need to talk to you about something." Anne said finally catching her breath.
"Well what about?"
"Boys." Anne said quickly and quietly but still loud enough for Marilla to hear her. Marilla slightly laughed at Anne's problem remembering when she was in that stage of life asking her mom about boys.
"Well how can I help?" Marilla said a little happily. Anne took a second then finally spoke.
"Well one of my really good long time friends just arrived the other day and we both sort of liked each other at one point."Anne stopped for a second and then continued. "And well I kind of think that those feelings are coming back but then I just realized something right at this moment." Anne was talking so much that while she was talking she started thinking of Gilbert. She thought of his eyes and his smile. And she thought of them sitting side by side watching the sunset and remembering the night when Gilbert made the promise to always stay with Anne.
"Well spit it out child." Marilla said anxiously. Anne took in a deep breath and then finally spoke.
"I'm in love with Gilbert Blythe."
" wait what?"
"But I also love Alex!" Anne said stressed out.
"Tell me one thing." Marilla said calmly.
"Yes?"
"Who did you love first?"
"Why?"
"Just tell me."
"Alex why?"
"Then go for Gilbert."
"Why?"
"Because if you loved Alex enough you wouldn't have fallen for Gilbert." Marilla said staying calm the entire time. Anne thought about every word that Marilla had just said.
"So I should go for Gilbert?"
"Exactly."
Anne thought about it for a couple minutes, then smiled and hugged Marilla tightly.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you." Anne said onto Marilla's shoulder. She was glad she had had another mother figure to help her out.
"You are so welcome." Marilla said with a soft smile.
"I don't know what I would do without you."
"Well you wouldn't know which boy to go to that's for sure." Both of them started laughing.
"Well I hope to see you again in the future sometime." Anne said finally speaking.
"Well when you see Gilbert again tell him I said hi."
"I will." And with that Anne left with a big smile on her face.

Anne: hey want to go watch the sunset by the cliff tonight?
Gilbert: sure!
Anne: Great! See you at 6 I guess?
Gilbert: ok
Anne: ok then see ya later
Gilbert:see ya later
*stop texting*
Anne turns off her phone and starts jumping around her room like she got a new car or something. While in Gilbert's room, he's celebrating over finally getting to hug hang out with Anne. And maybe even telling her how he feels about her. Everything was going to plan for both of the teenagers. Especially Gilbert. This was one of the things that Gilbert needed right now, mainly to tell her about how he feels. And now all he had to do was figure out how to tell her. Now that was going to take some practice.
