HE'S MY EX, daniel seavey

ariella

daniel and i have been hanging out a lot lately over the last few weeks, in-between his busy schedule.

the boys start their international leg of tour tomorrow and i'm not exactly looking forward to him leaving.

i don't want to admit it but i've gotten way too attached again.

he wanted to spend the day with me and his family so we are all currently hanging out together. christian and jeff decided to grill for us so we're about to eat soon.

daniel made it his mission to keep close to me at all times; his arm placed lightly around my waist or shoulders, or he sat on the arm of my chair and leaned his body against me. either way it took some getting used to again.

i'm so glad to be around his family. they welcomed me with open arms, making me feel at home. i always got along well with them and honestly i missed this.

"hey come with me," daniel whispers in my ear as i'm listening to keri and anna's conversation.

he stands and takes my hand in his, pulling me up from the chair. i groan playfully as i drag my feet, "danielllll the fire was keeping me warm."

he chuckles and quickly slips his sweater off and hands it to me, "better?"

i smile as i take the sweater and put it on, immediately recognizing his scent. 'he won't be getting this back' i think to myself as he leads us away from everyone.

we walk to a little secluded area and then he stops with his back facing me. i notice that his hands are shaking which lets me know that he is nervous about something. i grab his other hand and turn his body towards me.

"you okay?" i ask.

he closes his eyes for a brief second, inhaling sharply, "these last few weeks with you have meant everything to me, ariella."

my heart flutters at his words, "i could say the same. it's been really nice."

he stares at me intently, those beautiful blue eyes captivating me.

"i-i thought i had lost you forever. i know i don't deserve you. we both know that, but you've given me another chance to be in your life and i'm so thankful. even if it's just as friends.. though i'll always want more with you. everything i said in the past still goes. i want to build a life with you and someday, hopefully you'll be ready for that with me again. i want to prove to you that you can trust me," he pauses before continuing,

"i just- i'm scared that going on tour will throw things off when they're going so well. i can't lose you again... i guess what i'm trying to say is that i love you, ella. and it's okay if you don't feel the same anymore, i completely understand. i just wanted you to know that and wow i'm rambling, i'm sorry i don't know wha-"

i cut him off,

by kissing him.

and in that moment
everything feels right again.
