Be Mine

Confessions

Cole's POV
Another beautiful day, waking up next to the love of my life. I'm still mad at myself for yesterday's events and probably, I will never stop blaming myself for what I've caused to her. Camila started moving, cuddling closer in my arms and rubbing her head on my chest.

"Mmmm..." she murmured and half-opened her eyes. I stroked her hair and moved a piece of it behind her ear.

"Good morning, beautiful."

"Cole," Cami smiled and kissed my chin with those soft lips of her, which I wish I could kiss right now. "Good Morning."

We got up and ate breakfast. Lately, I've been spending a lot of time at her apartment. We have kind of sleepovers, have TV marathons, eat together, etc. And there's nothing I love more than being 24/7 with Cami. She's the best company.

As we were eating out French toasts, I got a call from Mads. She wanted us to meet at her place in about an hour. I said that I would be there, and before I left Cami's apartment, she grabbed my hand.

"Hey, Cole, would you like to come over in the evening and watch a movie?"

"Sure, I'd love to. See you later, Cam!"

I knocked on Mads' door and she opened it for me. We sat on her couch and by the face she had, it was obvious, that she wanted us to talk about something really really serious.

"Cole, I need to talk to you about something, that is super important."

Oh, God, here we are...

"What is it, Mads?"

"It's about Cami."

Camila's POV
Vanessa texted me and told me to come over at her place, because she wanted to tell me something urgently and I was slightly confused. But it's Vanessa. You can't say no to her.

After a while, I arrived there. First, we ate some snacks and watched TV, but like 20 minutes later, she turned the TV off. She probably remembered the reason that she told me to come over and I was waiting for her to say what she has to say.

"Right, so I wanted to talk to you, Cam."

"About what?"

"About Cole."

Shit!

Cole's POV
"What about Cami?" I asked Mads, who put on a 'I'm ready to do it' face.

"Listen, I know you've never told anyone before, and probably you don't want anyone to know about this, but I do."

I was so confused.

"I know that you like Camila."

My heart started beating faster and faster, my hands started sweating and I tried my best not to look nervous at all.

"I-I don't--"

"No. You're going to tell me everything. And don't you dare deny that you have a crush on my best friend, because we both know that these are bullshit."

"I--...I mean..how? How did you figure that out? Why are you so sure about that?"

"Because..."

Mads chuckled and I gulped. She was ready to tell the story of her life.

"You always stare at her for God knows how many hours. When you guys first kissed -and I mean really kissed- on-screen for the Riverdale script, you had that smile on your face, like you have been waiting to do that since forever. And the way you're touching her during those precious make outs on-screen, they way you look at her is so erotic, and that little disappointment on your face, when you have to pull away from each other's face is what made me believe that you are crushing really hard on her. Plus, all those moments that you hangout together. I don't know how, but I can feel your heart beating 10 times harder. Am I wrong?"

I was speechless for once more. All this time, I haven't realized that I am in love with Camila and Mads had instead of me? How is this even possible?

"You're...you're not wrong.."

The smile that crept on her face was bigger than the whole world. She clapped her hands together and let out a small laugh.

"You like her!!!"

I nodded and chuckled slightly.

"I can't keep it to myself anymore, Mads. I don't like Camila, I am definitely falling for her. I mean, if someone asked me to describe her in only one word, that would be perfection. She always makes me feel weird. Good weird."

"Oh, ohhh, Goddd!!!!!!"

Was she literally running out of breath? Because it seemed so real.

"Cole, I'm so glad you finally found the courage to admit it! But you need to tell Cami, too."

"Are you out of your mind?! I'm never gonna have a chance with her. Resently, I found out that she was in love with me when we first met at the studio for the auditions of Riverdale and I broke her heart. How is she supposed to fall in love with me again, just like that?"

Mads smirked and placed a hand on my shoulder.

"How are you supposed to know what Camila feels about you if you don't tell her how you feel first?"

That was a strong point. Cam has forgiven me for long time now, so maybe she's not still mad at me.

"You're right. I guess...I should tell her."

"Come here, Colie!"

Mads hugged the shit out of me, in point that it started hurting a bit.

"So you knew? This whole time?" I asked and she laughed.

"Of course! Not only me, but Vanessa and Casey, too. And KJ a little bit. Cole, not gonna lie, but you're a terrible liar when you're in love."

I chuckled and told her to shut up. After a while of talking and snacking with her, I went back to my place. Wow, I finally got to talk to someone about my feelings. And tomorrow, in the evening, I'm gonna tell her. I'm gonna tell that I love her.

Camila's POV
"About Cole...?" I asked, unsure of what Vanessa was implying.

"Yes, about Cole. Both you and I know that you're in love with him."

My face turned red and my stomach started feeling weird. I wasn't in the mood of lying anymore, so I decided to tell Vanessa everything.

"Yes, I am. I've been in love with Cole since months now. I'm not gonna deny it, V. I just wish I could tell him as comfortably as I'm saying it to you right now."

Vanessa was shook.

"Well, wow! I didn't know that I could get the truth out of your mouth THAT soon," she laughed and placed a hand on mine.

"Just tell him how you feel, Cam. Even if he doesn't like you back, try it. He's not one of those guys, who rip your heart out of your chest. Will you do that for me?"

"I...Truth is, I can't hide it anymore. The way he kisses me on set is so loving, passionate, soft, and sometimes even aggresive. He makes me melt with only one look. I don't know what kind of spell he has casted on me, but it definitely worked. And I'm not doing this for you. I'm doing this to make myself feel a little bit more free and relaxed. So, yeah, tomorrow, I'll tell Cole about my feelings for him."

Vanessa smiled and clapped her hands together.

"Yes! That's the spirit, girl! I want every detail from tomorrow, okay?"

I nodded and after a while, went back to my apartment.

I guess, tomorrow's a big day...

The most boring and awful chapter of the year. I don't know what the hell is wrong with me. I promise next chapter will be better and we will finally have what we've all been waiting for (I'm literally spoiling my own book)!
