I wake up unsure of where I was for a moment as my eyes adjust to the dim light of the fire almost out. I look down and see Skylar in my arms still asleep, I had forgotten I came to her room last night I look around to find the clock. Bloody hell it's 3 in the morning I can't believe I fell asleep here. I slowly try to untangle myself from her arms and legs tangled around me trying no to wake her but no prevail. She grips my arm pulling me into her more.
"I swear if you leave right now I will never talk to you again, your so warm and comfy." I chuckle she was always slightly bitter when she was woken up. I lay back down and pull her closer to me. "Love you Georgie." My heart skips a beat when she says that, something we've said for years but still.
"Love you too." I kiss the top of her head and get comfortable again knowing I'll be here the rest of the night but I should probably leave before McGonagall catches me here. I slip into a peaceful sleep knowing she was here with me.
Skylars POV
I love my best friend but I could never tell him but even just laying on his chest made me feel safe and loved saying I love you wasn't something we weren't used to but saying it was more than just the typical best friend I love you, it was me actually saying it knowing that he would never catch on because it is normal for us but it was a way for me to let it out. I knew Minerva would be upset if she found us together but I didn't want him to leave he is my comfort. He was warm and soft and the perfect person to lay your head on, he would rub your back when you were't feeling good or when your crying. He would try to make you laugh or at least try to get you to crack a smile. Any girl would be lucky enough to have him, and I knew one day he would find someone who would make him happy and that honestly hurt me to know that I would one day have to see him smiling at someone and kissing them potentially get married to them all the while I sit there in the crowd staying quiet because I would do every thing I could to make sure he was happy.
I hear his soft snores knowing he is asleep I tilt my head up to get a better look at him. His red hair kind of flopped in his face over his eyes, his jawline that you could land a plane on, his lips that look so soft slightly parted as he sleeps. He was truly a sight to behold awake and asleep. I'm sure if he woke up to me staring it would be pretty weird so I go ahead and twist around so my back is facing him trying not to wake him up. I finally decide to close my eyes and try to sleep when I feel him turn and put his arm around my waist pulling me into his chest. He nuzzled his face in my neck.
"Why did you go so far away. I love to hold you." He said in a sleepy tone.
I simply took his hand in mine as it was around my waist and fell asleep, I felt safe and within seconds was asleep.
"Skylar....Sky...love...wake up." I hear whispered into my ear I stir slightly. " Come on love. You need to get up." I know its George. I crack one eye open to see him propping himself up on his elbow. He brushes some hair out of my face. "come on sleepy head."
"George...." I turn to fully look at him and snuggle into his chest. I hear him chuckle I can feel it vibrate through his whole body a deep chested chuckle. " You always smell so nice." He kisses the top of my head butterflies erupt in my chest. I contemplate for a moment actually telling him how I feel, but when I thought about it more I found myself starting to have a panic attack but I wanted to tell him.
"Sky whats wrong, your starting to panic, your hyperventilating into my chest, just breath tell me whats going on in that pretty head of yours." He plays with my hair. Instantly calming me down.
I peek out from his chest and look at him. " Georgie....I...I gotta tell you something." I pull away slightly to fully look into his eyes, he looks worried.
"You can tell me anything love." He plays with my hair more.
I take a deep breath "Your my best friend, I would never want to do anything to hurt you or our friendship, but.....I love you....and I mean a pretend to like your music, let you have the last slice of cake kind of love. The kind of love that isn't friendship, the kind of love that makes me want to rip my hair out and scream. I know that you are in love with your soulmate but I'm laying it all out for you right here, if you don't feel the same then ok we can act like this never happened and go back. I have spent the last 3 years loving you......" I pretty much said it all in one breath, I was sitting up at this point freaking out my hands were shaking my heart was going about 1000 beats a minute he was simply just looking at me. I knew it I just messed up big time, and I'm about to lose my best friend.
"Skylar.......I had no idea..." he starts I cut him off
"Crap I'm so sorry that just messed this all up, You hate me and you don't want to be my friend anymore and.."
He all of a sudden gets really close to me putting his hand on my cheek. I turn red instantly....his thumb runs across my bottom lip his eyes flickering between my eyes and my lips as if to ask permission. With no warning he slams his lips into mine kissing me as if he was going to lose me, my hands tangle in his hair and pull him closer this is all I've ever wanted and I never wanted it to end he hovers over me as he lays my back on my bed our lips never leaving each others. It was urgent and loving. I mean hes obviously kissing me so he must feel the same.
"Georgie." I pull away.
"You have no idea how wonderful it was to hear you say that, I love you too and You...you are my soulmate so yes I am obsessed with you and have since day one, I love your laugh and your smile, the way you are so kind to others and beautiful. I have waited to hear you say those word worried that if I said it first we would ruin our friendship, I couldn't bear to lose you." He puts his forehead on mine. I lean up and kiss him slowly and softly.
"I'm yours forever georgie....but if we don't get up were gonna be late for class. I have to talk to Minerva about this too, I'm sure she won't like you being in my dorm anymore now that this has happened."
We both get up he nods his head and walks towards the door turning quickly to kiss me again deeply and lovingly.
"I love you Skylar." and with that he turns and leaves me alone in my dorm.
