❀Simon's POV❀

As soon as I turned away I went straight to my room. So many feelings were clouding my mind. I immediately told Ethan and my other house mates on Skype before we started recording. I knew telling Ethan he would get hyped up, which he did. The other guys are saying to have this Max guy explain himself, and why he is here.

When we stopped recording, I asked the guys if they wanted to continue but they all said no. Except for Tobi, we jumped in a Skype call and we agreed to start streaming on Twitch.

"So, how was your day?" Tobi said.
"It was actually alright, I finally met up with Courtney since that so called incident-"
"That's good buddy!"
"Yeah, but here's the twist. You know Max right, wellll this prick is Courtney's ex. "
"So," he said nonchalantly.
"What'd you mean so?!" I said.
"Simon, why are you getting upset? The fact that he is her ex? The fact he can't have her anymore? Bro, you have her, why do you seem so intimidated? Maybe that is the reason for Courtney telling you to take it slow."
"Tobi, I'm so happy you are the way you are. Because Ethan and the other guys were grinding my gears about this shit. You're right, I should act unbothered but why did he move in the same tower? I still have my eye on him," I said looking down at the floor.
"Cmon man, let's start the stream," I nodded as he said that.

Tobi and was streaming for about two and a half hours. He went to get some food, and I promised the viewers I would answer some questions. I looked through the chat as it moved quickly.
"Are you excited for upload? Yes I am, to have something this big- other than my penis- sorry sorry. No but we have been thinking about this idea for a while, and to see it all come together is mad."
"Umm am I going to the Drake concert? Yes I am. Any plans for the week? Yes, I was able to grab some tickets for a basketball game at The O2, so if any of you are going say hi-" I was interrupted by a notification that tells me when someone subscribed to my twitch.
"Oh wow," I said trying not to blush," thank you Courtney for the 4 month re sub, you cutie. Get some rest." I grabbed my phone quickly and texted Courtney.

I miss you already By the way, date tomorrow? You, me and some balls. (Basketball?)

From Courtney💍:
I miss you too babe, and fooo shooooo☺️ get back to your stream
{received 1:34 am}

I smiled at the text message and I wanted to tell her how I felt right there. But over text is not for me. I looked through the chat to see ship names , and people genuinely gassing me up. Eventually Tobi came back and we continued for another hour, before calling it quits.

❀start song❀

The couple held hands as the game finished, they had a great time together. Courtney felt 100% better knowing that she had Simon around her again. Simon felt very nervous, but he admired everything about her. As they were leaving their seats a couple fans approached them. They both took numerous amount of photos, followed by having proper conversations too.

When they broke apart, Simon had his arm around her shoulder keeping them close. It was now or never.

Once they reached the main entrance, they exited and Courtney told him she wanted to take a picture of The O2. She turned back to Simon, who was just smiling at her. He took a deep breath and opened his heart, he extended his arms as their hands intertwined.

"Courtney Sage, I've been wanting to tell you this for a long time. But I was waiting for a time when we surpassed something, that I knew would bring us closer. You are a beautiful, graceful, charismatic and talented woman. And uh-" Courtney looked at him and there it goes, her tears filling those eyes. "What I'm trying to say is - Courtney is that," Simon's voice a bit shaky as he felt his heart beating out his chest. "I'm madly in love with you. I loved you from the start, and I've been wanting to tell you this for the longest. Courtney Sage, I love you."
"Simon, I love you too, it's always been you," a huge grin spread across their faces. And what it feels like it's been forever, they both inched their lips closer. The anticipation for the "first move" killed them both, their lips connected and the kiss was slow and passionate. It felt as though fireworks were meant to cast behind us, he lifted her up spinning her around.
"Courtney I've been meaning and waiting to tell you, I'm in love!" He shouted causing some heads to turn, they didn't care. It felt so right, to be able to say those words.
"I love you too babe," she said as he kissed her in the crook of her neck causing her to laugh.

They walked to his car, as he opened the door for her as he went in the drivers seat. Courtney had a over night bag to stay at his for the night, obviously not thinking about what was going to be said. Once they reached his house, they couldn't keep their hands or eyes off of each other. They entered his room, agreeing to enjoy and live in the moment. Simon and Courtney agreed to watch a movie, after they showered. After the shower, Simon joyfully went in the kitchen to try to find popcorn. Courtney was in the shower, and after she was finished she put on Simon's shirt and some shorts. She plopped on the bed trying to find movies to watch, as Simon entered the room doing a little dance.

He approached the bed, pecking her lips on hers while she sat in the bed still looking for movies. He laid on the bed, eating popcorn and looking at the tv. Once they found a movie they snuggled together. After the movie finished, heading to the bathroom to brush their teeth. All the lights turned off Simon laid in bed, as Courtney scurried in with him. She got comfortable on him, becoming the little spoon. He kissed her neck and her arm.

"I love you."
"I love you too."
