Second Chance (Edward Scissorhands x Reader)

Chapter Fifteen

Authors note: OKAY OH MY GOD- I know I haven't been online for a while because of my mental health and as well because Wattpad is refusing to work on my computer but this story is almost at 1,000 reads and I can't express how happy I am. So I was thinking about answering a few questions as my way to say thanks. I just wanted to add as well that my mental health has been better, I've talked to someone, have rested, and recollected my mind, because of that I'll try posting here a bit more, hopefully posting at least once a week. Again, THANK YOU SO MUCH-

When the kiss ended, I couldn't help but feel like my stomach was filled with butterflies, and that my heart would pop out of my chest at any moment.

"Y/N? Are you okay?" Edward whispered, putting his hand on my cheek.

I felt the heat on my face getting up, so I just nodded. We stood there, not saying anything for a bit. I felt so awkward and so in love at the same time. Several emotions and thoughts were going through my mind and I couldn't really believe what had just happened.

"I love you too Edward," I whispered under my breath, I couldn't look into his eyes so I just looked down at the floor.

"Really?" His face lights up, a very adorable smile planted across his face.

I give him a small nod, and he immediately gives me a tight hug. I felt safe and protected during that hug, so I just smile. My face rests on his chest, and I close my eyes. We stay there, for a few more seconds, before I take a step back. I'm still very flustered and nervous, but something inside me seems to be in a deep ease. I began playing with my hands to help me from tensing up.

"I-I think I need a moment," I start stumbling on my words.

Edward sighs, and nods, "Okay."

I rush over to what is now my room, close the door, and lean over on the door. I take several deep breaths as a smile starts showing up on my face. I quickly cover my face with my hands, trying not to die from embarrassment. The kiss keeps replaying in my mind, and my face just keeps warming up more and more.

After a few minutes, I calm myself down, and decide to go talk to Edward again. Leaving my room, I spot Edward sitting down on the floor, I walk on over and sit next to him. My head goes on his shoulder, and lean closer to him.

"Oh, this is nice," Edward chuckles.

"Can I ask you something?" I look up at him.

"Of course."

"When did you know you loved me?"

He looked down at me, and paused, he didn't say anything for a while, and then, "Cutting bushes with you was nice, I really enjoyed it. What about you?"

"I'm not really sure actually, I mean it really was very apparent when I came back, but I feel like I always had a little bit of feelings for you," I giggled, "You're very loveable after all."

"Thank you," He whispered.

From then on we kept talking for what felt like hours, we talked about different stories, our passions, each other, people we knew, and so much more. I loved every second of it, and I couldn't ask to be with anyone better.
