           "I feel bad for the poor girl." 

I laughed and took a bite out of my pasta before I cocked a brow and said, "Why?" 

"Because she had to deal with a person that is super dense and is also a pain in the ass." she deadpanned.

I rolled my eyes at her as I twist my fork, playing with the pasta and locked my gaze on hers who was already studying me, it was bright, curious and affectionate. She's too freaking beautiful, I don't wanna let her go, never.

"Anyways, continue what happened after that?" she asked curiously, her lips curved up into an enthusiastic smile.

I cleared my throat, "Okay..."

 ~~~          

    "What did you say?" she inquired, her eyes wide, almost falling out of its sockets.

Once my mind processed what I said in the spurt of the moment. I cursed myself internally but then decided to be truthful, since the cat is already out of the bag and I'll listen to this stupid organ that is inside my chest for once to settle it down since it clearly overpowered my brain to provide me logical and rational answers.

I swallowed the growing lump on my throat, " You're mine." I rasped out, my voice lower than I would have liked.

She blinked, once, twice and tries to open her mouth then closed it once again. We stayed awkwardly silent for awhile until she finally speaks up, "Since when did I become yours?" she croaked out.

I took a deep breath, " Since the time I decided to."

Her breath hitched and I could see her throat bobbed and nervousness. 

" So decide," I stated lowly, licking my lips which her eyes followed the gesture.

" W-What?" she stuttered out nervously.

" Say yes in being mine. I won't accept a no."

She huffed but still didn't look away nor moved an inch away from me, she was frozen on her spot as I was. 

" Cocky of you, there is always another choice." she stated stubbornly.

" That's why I removed the other choices." I replied, tilting my head to the side and moved closer to her ears, "You're mine and you already know that so don't be stubborn, you were never interested in that chimp Caleb from the start anyway."

" And how would you know that?" she sighed in what I think pleasure.

" Those looks you gave me spoke what I just need to know. I have just been trying to ignore it and told myself that I'm reading it wrong." I breathed out, "But this time though... I'm not gonna turn a blind eye on it, so just admit that you like me because I do." I confessed and moved my head back to stare at her face.

She blushed, her eyes wider than before but all her emotions were clearly displayed and I could read it like a book. She was embarrassed, shocked but mostly happy making my lips curved up into a smile. Her mouth who was previously wearing a scowl now broke out into a smile-- a beam rather,
