                                                                              Brooklyn P.O.V.        

After Dallas and I finish working on the project my parents invite Dallas to eat dinner and, of course, he agrees and we eat in silence mainly then he leaves and we plan to work on the project at his house tomorrow after school, I head up to my room and change into a pair of black leggings and a black hoodie and start working on my homework. Once It's done I lay on my bed and fall asleep thinking of Dallas...

It's been about a week since Dallas and I have to work on the project and we switch back and forth back and forth between our houses, I try to do the work as fast as possible but I swear he tries to drag out our time together, but I try not to think about it. It's currently Friday and Dallas and I are working on the project and I'm wearing a pair of blue ripped jeans with a white tank top that has a button down the front and a light pink jacket that I threw over the chair with my purse and Dallas is wearing dark green jeans and a black hoodie. This week has been hell having to be near Dallas so much it feels so overwhelming knowing we kiss not a week ago and that he felt nothing after we finish working. 

He asks if I want to watch a movie because his parents went out of town for the weekend and his brother was at another friend's house doing a school project like us, we decide to watch second Iron Man seeing as we already watched the first one together. I sat beside Dallas with my coat over me to keep me warm because I was not about to ask Dallas for his hoodie he keeps glancing at me like he wants me to lean into him but I refuse to look back at him knowing I will lean into him. 

The movie finishes and we say our goodbyes, I head to my house and change into my comfy clothes before heading to bed. I wake up around 11 am to knocking on my door so I get up and open it to find Dallas dressed in his usual meanwhile my hair is on a messy bun, my glass, grey sweat pants, and a cropped hoodie "What are you doing here?"  "I didn't know you wore glasses"  "Yeah I do- wait you didn't answer my question of why you're here"  "We were supposed to work on our project but we can later just text me okay?"  stopping him before he can leave "Wait we can come in" I stand to the side and lets him walk-in "We can work in my room," I say leading him to my room which I realize he's never seen "Sorry for the messy bed and for how I look you kinda woke me up," I say nervously "You look beautiful" 

I turn around and face Dallas"What did you say?"Did he just call me beautiful?"I said you look beautiful Brook" I feel blood rush to my cheeks "T-thank you Dallas"  "Anytime Brook" he replies with a wink and I once again feel the blush rise to my cheeks, after he says that we just stare at each other and then begin to work on the project as if nothing happened "What about a movie?" Dallas says after about an hour "I am so down but first I need to eat something "How about I go get use some Krystal's?" I agree without hesitation and he heads off to get the food. He returns about 15 minutes later with the small burgers and fries he even got me the cherry slushie I asked for, we sit next to each other in my bed as we watch the first Avengers I glance at Dallas every now and then and I catch him glancing at me. 

When the credits roll and we've thrown all the trash away we both lay back on my bed and I put on Avengers: Age of Ultron, which we agreed to watch after the first on. Halfway through the movie Dallas puts his arm around me and I lay on his chest as he plays with my hair, I cuss myself because this is the last thing I want to do was end up back in his arms after what he said to me that night, we stay in this positions even when I hear small snores coming from above me and when I look I notice Dallas has fallen asleep and I decide to do the same. 

I wake up to Dallas lightly kissing my cheek, opening my eyes I see Dallas look down at me "Where are you going?"  "I'll be right back I'm just going to use the bathroom" I nod but stay awake till he returns and lets me lays on his chest again and we both fall back into a peaceful sleep. We are once again awoken by Dallas's phone ringing so he reaches over and answers it then talks for a second before hanging up and starts to play with my hair "It was just my mom making sure I'm still at your house" I reply by nodding and moving slightly to get more comfortable "Captain America but the first one?" he says and I agree and put it on he lets me stay on his chest and he plays with my hair as we watch the movie in silence

The movie ends and Dallas tells me he has to go home and gets up and so do I we walk downstairs and right before he walks out the door he gives me a hug and a kiss on the forehead and I feel the coolness of his lip ring on my head then he gives me a soft kiss on the lips before leaving and saying he'll call me tonight after I close the door I have a huge smile on my face and walk back up to my room thinking what the heck just happened?

Dallas stays true to his word and calls me later that night after a full day of me doing nothing but homework and watching a show called "Elite" and we talk about so many random things in which I learn his favorite color is green, favorite animal is a koala, his favorite Pixar movie is Monsters Inc., and that he wishes he could have a German Shepard but Dawson is allergic so they can't have a dog. We get off the phone around 12am after saying goodnight and I fall asleep with my thoughts once again consumed by that boy who confuses the hell out of me...

The next day I go over to Dawson's house and we hang out all day watching Elite together, I see Dallas once but he barely looks at me before heading back upstairs. After I return home at about 6 pm I change back into a pair of black leggings and a hoodie putting my hair in a bun and taking my contacts out and putting my glasses on. I hear a knock at the door and see Dallas standing on the other side so I open the door "Can I help you?"  "I came to see you"   " I was at your house all day Dallas you couldn't talk to me then or even look at me ALL DAY I was there whatever game you're playing I don't want to be apart of it Dallas," I said while closing the door only to have him reopen it again and not say a word but kiss me this kiss is dare I say softer than the other kiss but feels so much different, slowly he pulls away and finally says "Listen I've never been good with feelings or girls or any of that brook but I know I feel something for you but I've never really done this before never felt how I feel about you I've felt it for years now but never wanted to say anything in case you didn't feel the same that's why I told you to forget about that kiss I didn't want to somehow mess up something but working with you these past what two weeks have been hell for me and I can't help it anymore I really like you brook and have for a long time"

when he finishes I'm speechless, I feel tears run down my cheeks and Dallas wipes them away while stares at me waiting for an answer his eyes pleading me to say I feel the same "I d-don't know what to say Dallas I never realized how much I did like you till you let me wear your hoodie and slept on you but I do Dallas I do like you" he gives a big smile before kissing me with more intensely than before but still somehow soft and I can't help but smile as I kiss back now this just feels right I think as we slowly pull away......
