Chapter Four
Gabriella's POV
It was a little chilly in my room. I was trying to do my English homework, but I wasn't getting much done. Me and Ryan are currently having Q&A time. I've just asked him who he likes. He won't come right out and say it, so I keep prying. He says it's one of the girls he texts, and I say, "Well, it's either me or Laurel, because those are the only two girls you text."

He quickly replies, "No! It's definitely not Laurel."

"Well is it me then?"

"This is going to sound weird, but... ever since I met you, I've had a crush on you."

Well, this is definitely not something I was expecting. A boy confessing his love to me. I will dare to say this has never happened before.

So naturally, I do what anyone else would do in my situation. I completely freak out. I mean, I'm only sixteen. I was not expecting a boy, let alone my best friend, to declare his... love? for me. All I know right now is that I'm super confused. But I'm just gonna roll with it.

Naturally, I make a complete and utter fool of myself. A girl can't be expected to cope with this without at least an hours notice. I need time to mentally prepare for this.

I immediately text Alayna, my best girlfriend, and she completely freaks out as well. let's just say us ladies are not equipped to handle boy drama on a moments notice. Guys really need to figure that out. It would be much appreciated, and I feel like I'm speaking for the majority of the teenage female population.

I need some time to stop freaking out before we continue talking about this, so I hurriedly text him, "Can you cook?"

Seconds later he says, "Yes. I love to bake." Alright, that I can deal with. My best friend bakes.

"What do you like to bake?"

"Anything, but mainly cakes. I love to decorate them as well."

"Alright then, my new name for you is Peeta."

"I'm cool with that."

With that my night kind of cools down. I go to bed with butterflies, but somehow I know it will all be okay.
