Chapter 113
“I know that you may walk away from me and this is the last thing I want, but I can’t spend one more day pretending that i don’t have feelings for you, because my heart simply beats for you, cupcake” I can’t believe what I have just heart. It all feels like a dream For a while, I have been trying to think of a way to make him notice my feelings and here he is, telling me that he has always had feelings for me.
Not a single romantic novel could give me the thrill I have inside of me now. No, this isn’t a thrill. This is like flying. I’m on top of the world. Being told by the one you like that they like you back is an unmatched feeling. An indescribable. unmatched feeling that has a unique beauty no amount of words are enough to describe.
As I stare at his shocked face, I realize that l’have been lost in my own thoughts and I need to tell him how I feel.
“Say something, please.” His pleading voice brings me back to consciousness. I focus on his handsome face and for the first time in a while, I see fear.
“I’m glad that you told me about how you feel,” I say, taking a step closer to him, closing the space between us. “Because I’m really tired of pretending that we’re just friends.” I stand on my tip goes and kiss him. His surprise is clear because it takes him a couple of seconds to kiss me back, but when he does, he makes sure to let me know that he has been waiting for so long to actually kiss me.
This kiss is different. We’re not kissing because we want people to believe that we’re together. We’re not kissing because I look kissable and it is the heat of the moment. We’re kissing because we want to. Because we truly feel something for each other.
“Just to make sure that I understand, you like me too, right?” I laugh at his question and rest my head on his chest.
“In case my initiating the kiss wasn’t enough, yes, Silas, I like you. I like you so much it hurts,” I say, staring at his beautiful
eyes.
“Oh my God,” he mutters, engulfing me in his arms as he picks me up and twirls me around. “You don’t know how long I have been thinking about this, cupcake.” He sets me down, but his hands stay on the small of my back. “I was so scared because all that I could think about is that you might run away from me and we wouldn’t be able to go back to the way we
were.”
“It’s a good thing you finally said something, because I was so close to saying something myself.” He chuckles at my words and I just latch my arms around him. “Frankly, I don’t want to go back to the way we were. I want us to start something new.”
“I want that too. I want that more than anything you can imagine,” he says, pecking my lips.
“So what does that make us?” I ask, eager to hear him call me his girlfriend.
“This makes me your boyfriend and makes you my girlfriend if you agree to be mine,” he tells me. I want that more than anything. I’m so tired of pretending to be his and now I want to really be his.
“Yes, I want to be your girlfriend and I want you to be my boyfriend,” I admit. I never thought I would be able to say this to him while maintaining an eye contact with him, yet here I am, unable to move my eyes away from his.
“So… which ride does my gorgeous girlfriend want to go on now?” he asks me. Being called his girlfriend sounds incredibly amazing.
“The Ferris Wheel!” I beam, reaching for his hand.
This all seems like a dream. I cannot believe that Silas Cromwell is my boyfriend. If somebody had told me last August that Silas would become my boyfriend by December, I would have accused them of being crazy. This is surreal, I don’t know how I fell for him, but I’m glad that I did.
My mind still cannot accept that he has been in love with me for years. I never thought that I would end up with him one
