"Damnit Colby."

I muttered as I looked at my bruised lip. At least I'm at home where no boys can break my heart. I sat down on the couch and turned on some music. Music always just made me feel better; especially Paramore.

I let the music play from my TV as I looked through pictures of Colby and I. We looked so happy. I thought I made him happy. But I didn't. I never made him happy as some bimbo does.

I scrolled through my photos until I came across a photo of Fergal and I. I did miss him. I wanted my best friend back. But...how can we be friends after what he told me and kissing me? I took a deep breath as I dialed Fergal's number.

"Pam? I've missed you."

Fergal said as he picked up.

"I missed you too. Do you think we could go get a bite to eat or something and catch up?"

I asked him.

"Sure. I'll pick you up at 8, Okay?"

"Okay. See you then."

I said as I hung up. I smiled as I rushed upstairs to go get ready.

"Hey."

I said with a smile as I hugged Fergal.

"Hey. Wow, you look...wow."

Fergal said as I giggled.

"Thank you. You look pretty snazzy yourself."

I said as I messed with his collar. Fergal led me into the restaurant and we got sat down at a booth.

"So, what's been going on with you?"

I asked Fergal.

"Nothing. My life has been pretty boring."

Fergal said as I laughed.

"What happened with Cathy? You guys seemed pretty happy together."

"She's just too damn jealous for me. Besides, if I'm being honest here, the sex wasn't good."

Fergal said as I almost spit out my drink.

"Fergal!"

I yelled as I slapped his chest.

"It's the truth!"

Fergal said with a laugh. A few minutes later, the waitress brought out our meals.

"Now, I have to ask you something."

I said.

"Okay. Shoot."

"What did you mean when you said you have feelings for me?"

I asked Fergal. He put his fork down on his plate and looked at me.

"Exactly what I meant. I'm in love with you Pamela. Always have been, always will be."

Fergal said.

"Well, I don't know if you can handle me. I'm a mess Fergal Devitt."

"You've always been hard to get, huh Pamela?"

"If only you knew Fergal."

I said. Next thing I knew, our lips were connected together. But it was different then when I kissed Colby. I had butterflies. I felt a spark. I felt...love.

"Woah."

I said as Fergal and I released.

"Did you feel that too?"

Fergal said.

"Yeah."

"Be my girlfriend."

Fergal blurted out. My jaw dropped as I searched Fergal's face for any signs that he's joking. But he wasn't.

"Yeah. I'll be your girlfriend."

I said as I smiled.

"Great."

Fergal said as he kissed me again. I can't believe I just agreed to be Fergal Devitt's girlfriend...woah.
