The lingering question kept me up
2AM, who do you love?
I wonder 'til I'm wide awake

〈 Daniel 〉

It was now a late evening, everyone was asleep except for Kimberly.

I couldn't sleep either.

"Hey." I said.
"Oh hey, watcha doing here?" she asked, looking at me and back at the television.
"I could ask the same thing can I?" I chuckled.

So did she.

"I was just watching Malibu Rescue, I was bored." she said.
"Well I get it, you slept for a day, of course you're still active." I chuckled.
"And how about you?" she asked.
"Couldn't sleep." I snuggled with her.

I feel her smile and look at me, then at the television.

"Daniel?" she said.
"Yes Kim?" I asked.
"Can I ask you something?" she asked.
"Yeah, of course, what is it?" I asked.

My heartbeat was a bit unusual.

It was... faster.

"How much... do you love me?" she asked.

My smile was turned into a confused one.

"What do you mean?" I asked with a head tilt.
"Like, how much do you love me? If you could rate it?" she said.
"A hundred?" I replied, more in a question tone.

She sighed, smiling.

"Kim, what's wrong?" I asked, a bit more serious.
"I love you too Daniel." she smiled. "But as a best friend again." she continued.

My heart dropped.

I looked away, licking my lips.

"Daniel." she sighed, reaching out for my hands. "I'm so sorry, but I know I should to this instead of break your heart even more."

I took a deep breath, getting all the strength I have to look at her.

"It's Zach isn't?" I asked.

With glossy eyes, she nodded.

"You deserve him. I love you." I whispered.

She scooted closer to me for a hug.
