I walked downstairs and seen a lot of my family members sitting at the dinning room table, Isabelle was here too, she was talking with my aunt. I walk over and hug them all then I approach Vanessa.

"Laura oh my gosh! You're so beautiful and grown up!" She said hugging me tightly.

"Haha thanks Ness, you look beautiful too." I said as we pulled away.

"So hows collage I asked.

"Stressful! But I'm getting through it, and Laura I'm sorry I haven't visited at all! I've been super busy with all my collage work." I nodded.

"It's fine Ness, I understand." She smiled.

She sat down and started talking with everyone else. I felt a tap on my shoulder so I turn around and see Cameron, my oldest cousins best friend, we were close when we were younger.

"Oh my gosh Cameron!" I hugged him tightly.

"Hey Laurie!" He said.

We pulled away and examined each other, and not gonna lie he's pretty handsome.

"Wow Laura, you're beautiful!" I blushed and looked down.

"T-Thanks.." I hear him chuckle.

"You've always been so shy." He said.

I looked up and rolled my eyes, "Shut up!" I whined.

The doorbell rang so I walked over and opened it, my smile widen as I seen Ross standing there.

"Ross hi!" I said letting him in.

He walked in and smiled at me, "Hey Laur, you look gorgeous." My face started to heat up.

"T-Thanks, you look g-good too." I said stuttering a lot!

I mentally slapped myself for stuttering so much.

Cameron came up behind me.

"Hey Laura, who's this?" Cameron asked.

"Oh, this is Ross, Ross this is Cameron." They shook hands and smiled.

"Is this your boyfriend, Laura?" My eyes widen and my face turned red.

"No! Um we're just friends, well actually he's my teacher..." I said.

"What? He's your teacher?" He asked.

"I'm her music teacher." Ross said.

Cameron nodded, "Well, I'm Laura's friend, it's nice to meet you."

Ross smiled, "You too."

We all sat down at the table and started eating food, after dinner we just talked and talked, and right now the subject was on me.

They were asking me questions about my life sense no one ever sees me anymore. Then Layla had to ask a question that made me want to lock myself in my bedroom.

"Do you love someone?" She asks.

I bite my lip and slightly look over at Ross to see him staring at me.

"Um..love is a strong word." I said.

"Okay..well do you like someone then?" She asked.

"I mean I guess I've had my little crushes on guys but nothing too serious, and plus who would like me, the shy, weird girl." I laughed softly.

After my awkward laugh I swear I heard Ross say "I would.." But that's insane! I'm just hearing crap!

"But Laurie! Your the most prettiest girl ever!" I smiled at Layla.

"Awe you're very sweet Layla." I said.

<><><><><>

After talking for a while a lot of people started leaving except for Ross and Cameron.

And right now it was just me and Cam talking.

"So who's your crush you were talking about?" He smirked.

"What? No, I don't have a crush on anyone I just said I've had my crushes on some boys, but I don't now." I said.

"Well, do any boys like you?" I laughed.

"No, why would anyone like me?" I said.

"Cause look at you Laura, your gorgeous, fun and really sweet! Any guy would be lucky to like someone like you." He said.

I smiled the hugged him, "your the sweetest you know that?" I said.

"Yeah I know." I laughed.

I heard someone clear their throat behind us so we pulled away and looked at Ross, he had his hands clenched really tight. What's up with him?

"Am I interrupting anything?" He asked.

I shook my head, "No, your good." I said.

"Laura, I should probably go to my hotel now, it was good seeing you." Cam said.

I nodded, "You too!" He gave me a kiss on my forehead then left.

I turned back to Ross and smiled.

"Hey." I said.

"Hey shortie." He said.

I giggled, "Stop calling me that!"

"Nahh!" I rolled my eyes.

"We should hang out again soon." He said.

I nodded, "yeah we should! I miss hanging out with my Rossy!" I winked.

He laughed, "I miss hanging with you too Laurie." I giggled.

"I better get going now, I'll text you when we can hang out." He came really close to me then leaned down and kissed my cheek.

I blushed as I felt his lips touch my cheek. Oh my gosh!

"O-Okay." I said.

"Bye Laur." He said then left.

Yep I'm definitely in love with that boy...
