Only You ♡

3 days later

We are now back at John's place. Everyone at the dinner table, laughing, talking, eating. Whereas I just in my own thoughts thinking and thinking.

My attention went towards John. Hearing him laugh , seeing his smile, warms my heart. I see everyone else and feel so great full to call them family. These types of days is where you have to cherish the littlest moments even if you aren't aware. They may be your last or someone else's last. Being with those whom you love and love you back is the best gift you can ever receive from the universe.

Clink clink

Jaren: I would like to say something !

He says as he raises his glass.

John: This isn't a formal dinner dude. *light chuckle*.

Jaren: I know I know, I just wanted to say something before I forget that's all. *fake coughs* John you are one lucky mother fucker man. I'm glad you lived and survived that incident. No matter what you are going through dude we are here for you. You are surrounded with people who care about you right here , right now.

As Jaren was giving his speech John made his attention towards me. I sense him looking at me but I didn't bother looking back, I pretend I couldn't tell he was looking and just listened to Jaren. Few moments later into the speech John got up.

John: Alright dude it's my turn.

Jaren smiles and sits. We all clapped and laughed.

John: Thank you all for being my friends and support me the way you guys do. Really thank you ! I know you guys had to deal with you know who and I'm deeply sorry about that. But that's over now and I'd like for us to move on with our lives and just live life like the way we always do. With that said, *fake coughs*...

He says as he started walking towards my direction.

I looked at everyone. Faces shocked but a full grown smile across their faces.

John: Look y/n, I know we had our ups and downs, I know we had days where we never speak to each other, but I want that to be over. I want to be more than just best friends. And I know you feel it to. I know what I did and said was wrong and I'm sorry I deeply am. I just want us to be like our teenage selves, like the old days. Goofing around, laughing, those things, but I can't do that without you. Once you left I knew I fucked up because I didn't stop you.

Me: Left ?

John: when you were living to the UK. Before you surprised me and my mom with the news I wanted to ask you out. And hopefully have you as my girlfriend...but I was such a pussy that I just watched you leave...but at least you met Cam and the rest ya know ? *scratches neck*. But I regret it til this day that I never stopped you.

Gulp

Me: Yes.

John: *confused face with a smile*. Yes what ?

Me: I want to be your girlfriend. *smiles*.

Cam: I FUCKEN KNEEWWWW IITTTT BRROOO !!!!!! WOOOOOOOOO. Mason you owe me 5 bucks, thank you very much *smiles*.

Me: Okkkaaay *light chuckle*.

I say as I look back at John.

Me: You know I never wanted to leave. I only did it for you.

John: Why ?

Me: Because I caught feelings, I didn't want to ruin what we had, I didn't want to make you feel awkward and I didn't want to make a fool outta myself. So I decided to leave. But deep inside me I wanted you to tell me not to. But I knew if you even told me that I would be so stubborn that I wouldn't listen to you.

Jaren: Well it's never to late to love one another. It always comes around either unexpected or just in a different route. I'm happy for you guys. *smiles*.

I got up and hugged John.

Everyone: Awwww

I turned around and looked at the table full of the people. Smiling and happy. This is life. This is what I'm grateful everyday in my life. These people means so much to me. I'm glad I have them in my life. All of them.

I looked up and John and he looked at me with a smile. He kissed my forehead and hugged me tighter.

We ended the night by all of us watching a movie.
Throughout the movie I was in John's arms. I wasn't really paying attention to the movie at all. My mind was just on him. Few moments later I started falling asleep in his arms.

Best day I ever had throughout my years.
