3 YEARS LATER:
Grace's POV-
'I love you...'
Those three words kept repeating everyday in my mind these 3 years. My heart started beating fast the moment I stepped down the plane. I knew that I shouldn't get excited over this cause he just told me that he loves me as a friend.
My plan to get away from him to clear my mind... definitely failed cause I couldn't stop thinking about him from the moment after our first kiss.
Well... it has atleast helped me graduate! Lol!
I walked towards the arrivals hoping to see him but unable to think of what to say to him.
As soon as I saw him, His eyes met mine too. My crush... Looking right at me with only me in his sight! His lips curved up into a beautiful smile which I missed all these years.
Handsome as always...
My eyes lit up as I smiled back at him and started walking towards him.
"Harvey... " I felt my voice and my life once again as I called out his name.
"Grace! " He called out cheerfully just like he always does and pulled me into a tight hug.
Hmmm... I missed this... I missed him... I missed his scent... Which always made me feel alive. We just stood there with our hands around each other. If only this moment could last forever...
Harvey's POV-
My prayers don't seemed to be answered cause just after hugging her for few minutes, the security guard interrupted the beautiful moment by asking us to leave.
My girl... she was back! She is back!
Both of us quickly got into my car and I started off to our houses.
"I missed you so much Gracie."
Yeah so much that I even got a tattoo of her name on my arm while I was super drunk thinking about her.
"I missed you too. " She replied while smiling and playing with her fingers.
"What's the matter? " I asked.
"Harvey... I have a confession to make. "
There! My heart thumped wildly while I hoped that she would not say something related to her love life! She has a boy friend? She likes somebody? Oh no! No! No!
"Wait!" I braked the car suddenly realising we were almost crossing our houses. I invited her to my house and she hesitantly nodded.
Please... don't make me loose her just when I got her....
As soon as we stepped inside, I heard her speaking.
"Harvey... I like a certain person. "
"..."
No! No! No! I gritted my teeth to stop myself from losing control.
"He is the only person who understands me like the back of his hand. He is funny, cute, handsome... and I even had my first kiss with him! "
"Gracie... Not now please... " I murmered...
"I want to let him know that I love him and I like him a lot! So... I will be confessing my feelings to him now. I hope he doesn't push me away like he does to other girls."
"Gracie... " My heart just started burning... She likes... loves someone.. and that person is not me...
"I love you Harvey! I... I have a huge crush on you! "
"... What? "I stared blankly at her face as I processed what she just told. She told me that she f**king loves me!!! I looked at her.
She was red.. completely red... Her hands were squeezing her skirt. Her eyes were shut.
I pinched myself to believe that this was not a dream. My lips formed a smile... more like I was grinning ear to ear. I found my voice again.
"I don't think I would describe myself as 'Cute'... "
She glared at me which was so so so adorable!
"Did you not hear what I say? I just told you that I love you and that you mean more that just a friend to me! Could you pl—"
That's it! I didn't let her finish her words as I sealed her pink glossy lips with mine. I couldn't wait. My girl just said that she loves me!
"What the h*ll was that? " I heard her asking me after a very long kiss. She didn't kiss me back though!
"Why can't you let me finish my words and answer me first? "
I simply shrugged as I told her, "I didn't listen to anything after you said that you love me."
"..."
"So... Can you kiss be back this time? "
"Yeah" She replied.
I pulled her close to me by her waist and pressed my arm at the back of her head. She brought her hands around my neck. I slowly dipped myself into ecstasy as she kissed me back with those pink lips of hers. I knew from that moment that I was drunk in her for my life just like she was...
