That's when I did what my heart was hoping for. A hug. A warm hug.
"Hey—" He laughed.
"So you like me too huh?" He smiled.
"No! I mean— I don't know!" Shoot. Do I?
Why am I finally not feeling that empty feeling anymore? Why doesn't it feel fake? Why do I actually feel happy for once?
I laughed.
"Wait... wait— did I just see you laugh?"
I looked at him.
He laughed along with me.
"I'm so happy that I'm in tears," He said while smiling with his dimples coming out.
I pulled my hands out of the warm blanket and reached over to his face. His dimples just seemed so... mesmerizing.
When I touched his dimples, he stopped laughing. He looked serious— but that was when I felt a warm hand holding my head, pushing me forward.
I felt these soft lips that seemed irresistible.
"W-why are you doing this—" I stopped.
He pushed me close to his face.
"Shh... I need to tell you something,"
"What is it?"
"I like you,"
Oh snap. What did he say? Oh my god. That came out of nowhere through... AHHHH! I don't know how to reply! Do I say I like you too... But... I don't know if I like him! I literally just met him, why is he moving so fast?! Maybe he's a player?
"Sorry. I don't think I can reply to that," I said quietly.
"I'll wait for your answer," He smiled.
"If I continue this kiss I think you'd freak out even more so let's just stop here," He laughed.
I laughed nervously, "Haha, right"
