down and press my lips gently to hers. As I begin to pull away, I feel her hands close behind my neck. Lifting up on her toes to kiss me more feircely then I ever could have imagined. I wrap my hands behind her waist. Pulling her closer to me.Her lips are so soft and I don't want to stop kissing her ever. I slowly come to my senses and realise my dreams are coming true, or my world is about to come crashing down. Either way I Could die a happy man. I pull my lips away from hers and rest my forehead on hers.

 

Trying to catch my breath I whisper " I'm so sorry. I couldn't help myslef any longer." Taking a deep breath to steady my nerves before I contiued.

 

" Alliona Storm I love you. I always have." Pausing to look into her eyes to see if there is any regret.

 

"Tony, I have to tell you something." she starts to say looking deep into my eyes I swear she can see my soul.

 

I raise my finger to her lips trying to stop her before I could finish. "I know you probably dont feel the same about me. And I know you could do so much better. But..... If there is even the slightest bit of love for me besides just being friends. Please Alli give me a chance." I know I sound like I'm begging but if I let her walk away right now without knowing a piece of me will go with her.

 

 

"Can I speak now?" she says with a slight giggle. " Anthony Hawkins, we have been best friends since the 3rd grade. I have had the worlds biggest crush on you since I first seen you on the playground when we were registering me for school." She lets out a sigh of relief before continueing.

 

"Tony you will be my boyfriend." she says without remorse. " I can't wait anymore for you to ask me. So I'll just declare it. Now please grap my bag my gorgous boyfriend, so you can take me home."

 

I'm shocked, stunned, bewildered, so many emotions but the thing I choose to focus on is she called me her gorgous boyfriend. I stagger to the stump throw her bag over my shoulder, when I turn around I catch her staring at me smiling. OMG that smile is for me she is mine finally.

 

I walk her back to her bike, but instead of getting on it she grabs it and starts pushing it. We walk in silence,stealing glances at each other. Our feelings are now out in the open, yet both of us are speechless. I stop her at the corner of her street for one last kiss before I walk her the rest of the way home. When we get to the end of her driveway she stops and looks at me. I know her parents are watching but it doesn't stop her from taking my hand and pulling me close. She places so soft gentle kiss on my lips.

 

As she pulls away she whispers " I love you. I'll see you tomorrow." Then sets her bike on the side of the house.

 

"I love you too." I call after her softly. Walking toward the end of her block. Dazed I think today has got to be the best day of my life. My mind keeps replaying everything that happened in the woods. As I round the corner in my trailer park my mind drifts back to Alexa and what the hell she was doing in the woods. Did I imagine it.
