(75): I Love You

Kyle's POV.

"This is fucking delicious" Chelsea-Anne moans while devouring her pasta like a starved animal, but she still makes it look sexy.

She makes everything look sexy.

"I can make you moan louder" I wink.

She flushes immediately causing me to laugh before narrowing her eyes at me "Not the time, Chambers"

"Okay, okay"

I was so nervous about this whole date thing but it's honestly turning out to be perfect and fun. Just spending time with Chelsea-Anne is enough for me, I always love every second of it.

The past week with her has been something else. I might get hard just thinking about it. All the crazy and spontaneous sex we've been having. I never thought I could be that addicted to a single human being. It just seems to get better every single time with her, I don't know how. Some days she lets me have all the control, some days she wants it... like last night. That was fucking crazy! I almost lost my mind when I saw myself inside her mouth, it was one of the best experiences. She was so damn good at it too...

Fuck.

Just everything about her; her smile, her face, her voice, her body, her everything. She's... amazing. Every second I spend with her feels like heaven. Whether we're just speaking, having crazy and intimate sex, or just watching each other... it's heaven.

I love her so much. I really do. I want to tell her tonight. I'm not scared anymore.

"I have an idea" She says while taking a sip of her wine "We should play 21 questions"

"What's that?"

"We get to ask each other questions"

I laugh amused "I'm pretty sure we're past that stage though. That's supposed to happen when we didn't know each other that well"

"Well it would've if you weren't such a dick to me" She retorts.

"You want me to stick my dick in you?" I gasp acting like I didn't hear her and she scowls in response unamused "I'm kidding. Okay, let's do it"

She swallow what was in her mouth before clapping her hands enthusiastically "First question... what did you think of me? Like the first time we met"

I should've knows she'd ask such.

"I thought you were a goody-two-shoes and that you were annoying. I did think you were pretty hot though, still are" I wink.

She tseks amused "Okay fair enough"

"What did you think of me?" I enquire curiously. I've always wanted to ask her this question but it always slips my mind.

"Mostly that you were hot" She giggles and I smirk. Knew it. "Then you opened your mouth and I realized you were a rude jerk, still are" She winks mimicking me.

I laugh loudly, throwing my head back "Such lies! You know I'm a sweetheart to you now, Chelsea-Anne. I deserve a boyfriend of the year award"

"Yeah right" She snorts.

I raise an unhappy brow "Babe..."

"Okay, okay" She grins widely, her blue eyes shining that I'm slightly captivated "You do. You're a really good boyfriend. I'm a lucky chap"

I smirk "Thought so"

"Next question... uhm, why did you decide for us to be friends?"

I hum thoughtfully, trying to remember. It feels like such a long time ago "Okay, so when you went home for that exam break, I realized that I missed your presence so I was just like fuck it. It was always inevitable though"

"Told ya" She says arrogantly.

"Why did you want to be friends with me so badly anyways?" I ask.

"Well unfortunately I'm a peoples pleaser so I just had to get you to like me. Plus I had a point to prove, Chambers" She says and I signal for her to continue "Which is that I'd break through that tough demeanor of yours"

I shake my head amused "Well done"

"Are you glad that I did?" She asks, her voice suddenly soft as she twirls her pasta around her fork.

"Of course. I could write a whole speech about how sucky my life would be without you"

"Tell that to Nick" She jokes regaining her confidence.

"We owe him, don't we?" I laugh thinking about that annoying fucker.

Chelsea-Anne giggles before turning serious "We really do, Kyle, and all we do is pull pranks on him. We're the worst. We should spend more time with him. Alone"

"I did the other time" I defend.

She gives me a dry look "Only because you were mad at me and avoiding me"

"But still. Plus, he's always busy with that Avery girl. I don't really think he minds that much"

"Maybe" She hums looking thoughtful.

"Yeah so stop thinking about Nicholas and think about me" I basically whine.

She smiles "You know I always am"

"Really?" I can feel my eyes twinkle.

She laughs at me "Yes, duh. Isn't it obvious, mister?"

"And what do you think about?"

"Kyle, we're not getting sexual at a freaking restaurant" She shrieks, her face slightly turning red and I laugh.

"Oh so you think sexual things?"

She tries to scowl at me but ends up laughing "Not all the time"

"But most of the time?" I tease further.

She flushes, giving herself away and I laugh even more as she shoves a fork in her mouth so she has an excuse not to reply "You know what? We don't need to be having this conversation, I'm eating"

"Maybe when we get home, you can tell me exactly what you think about" I suggest, dropping my voice because I know she likes that.

She raises a brow gulping "I don't think so"

"We'll see" I challenge amused.

She always tries to resist me but fails miserably. Sometimes she likes to play hard to get but it ends being her begging me to take her. I love that, drives me crazy.

"No but I'm serious" She bites her lip.

"Why?"

She starts to toy with her hands, looking uncomfortable "This is embarrassing. Kind of"

"What?" I trail confused.

"I started my period today so yeah" She says, avoiding my gaze.

All I hear is 'No sex'.

"No" I basically cry out and she laughs.

"Stop being a child" She muses because now I'm pouting and my arms are crossed.

"Make it stop" I whine.

She laughs even more "What? You want me to make my period stop? Tell you what, I would if I could, but not even for the sex"

"Babe, what am I supposed to do now?"

"I don't know, not have sex? It's really not that hard" She replies amused.

"But I want you. All the time"

She can't seem to stop laughing at my torture as she shakes her head at me "Kyle, stop it"

"Okay, just distract me" I grumble.

I can't believe I'm not allowed to have sex with her for the next week. I mean we've been doing it everyday and now we're just not. This is torture. Stupid period.

"So dad sent me the cutest picture of Christian and Christina" She says with a huge smile and I can't help but also smile.

I'll never stop admiring how good of a person she is. Even after everything with her dad, she still loves him so much. Also everything with her stepmother. I could never be that forgiving even if I tried.

We're all so lucky to have in our lives.

We speak about everything. She updates me on her parents; apparently they've been communicating a lot after seeing each other in so many years and she's very happy about that. I guess there were some bright sides to that whole accident thing. She also updates me on her siblings, like right now. I really love our relationship. Not only is she my girlfriend, but she's also my best friend. I can tell her just about anything.

"Yeah?"

"They went to some photoshoot, and oh my gosh, they're so cute. He was holding her in his tiny arms and I can't. Oh my gosh" She tells me happily, her eyes bright.

She's so beautiful.

"Yeah, RJ has also been sending me pictures of Theo. Real cute guy" I tell her.

She smiles "Really?"

"Yeah. I think I even miss her" I chuckle nervously.

"Aww, I'm happy"

"You know, we should go together" I say suddenly, the thought crossing my mind.

She raises a confused brow "Where?"

"You know, when I go see Theo, you could come with to visit your dad and the children. They live at the same place"

"Oh yeah, that makes sense"

I hum, plopping a piece of my lasagna into my mouth and chewing as I watch Chelsea-Anne look deep in thought "What?" I ask her after swallowing.

"Would you be willing to meet my dad?"

I frown confused "Didn't I already?"

"As my boyfriend. He didn't know that you were my boyfriend then" She clarifies.

"I don't mind. He seems cool"

She grins toothily "Okay, good"

We continue with our food, our conversations lighter now because we don't want it to get cold. I never know how much I can speak unless I'm with her. Normally I like to stay quiet and keep to myself. That's kind of how I've always been.

"That was so delicious" She praises leaning back on her chair "I'm so full"

I reach for her hand on the table and kiss the back of it and she smiles at me "Yeah, me too. Do you want dessert though?"

"No thanks. I don't want to rip my dress"

"You did your nails?" I note looking at them. She has a light purple color and it looks nice on her.

"Yeah. Winnie painted them for me"

"I forgot purple was her new thing" I laugh remembering "She's so weird"

"She is but it's the good weird" Chelsea-Anne says. "But anyways... you and Kat looked civil the other day. Today too" She says all too excitedly.

I groan and she laughs at me "Yeah, I guess"

"So does that mean you would be willing to have some type of lunch? Just the two of you"

"No" I object immediately.

"Why not?" She complains taking a sip of her wine with her free hand "By the way, this is some good wine"

"I know, I can't drink too much though because I still have to drive"

"Sucks to be you" She snorts taking another sip.

"Rude"

She laughs "Kylie, you make me happy" She says suddenly and I'd think she was joking if it wasn't the admirative and genuine smile on her gorgeous face.

"I do?" I drawl.

She nods "Yes. You make me very happy. I just wanted you to know that"

"You make me happy too" I smile.

"I really appreciate today, all the effort. It was beautiful and I loved every second of it. To be fair, I love every second when I'm with you"

I think I start to blush.

"This is my treat so I'm supposed to be the one showering you with sweet words" I complain after I've sobered from grinning like an idiot "But you actually took the words right out of my mouth. I love every second with you too"

She grins, her hold on my hand tight "Good"

"Chelsea-Anne, I actually have to tell you something" I gulp nervously, my voice serious and she frowns confused and alarmed. This is it. I'm telling her.

"What?" She looks scared.

You can do it, you can do it. Just say it. Tell her. You have to.

I sigh one more time "I lo-"

"Are you guys done with your meal?" I don't get to finish my sentence because I am interrupted by Rosy.

Great.

Chelsea-Anne snaps out of staring at me with suspense to answer her because I'm too annoyed to now "Uh, yes"

"So the cheque?" She asks awkwardly as if only sensing now that she interrupted a very important moment.

"Yes please" Chelsea-Anne replies.

I hear her walk away and see Chelsea-Anne's eyes focus back on me "Kylie, what were you going to say?" She asks.

I sigh "I'll tell you another time"

"But-. Okay..." She frowns letting it go.

I kiss her hand because I can see that she's kind of upset "It's nothing bad, baby. I swear I'll tell you later"

"Are we going somewhere else after this?"

I nod "Yeah. You don't mind right?"

She shakes her head smiling "Nope, not at all, but only if you tell me where"

"Yeah I'm not falling for that" I snort.

Chelsea's POV.

(sorry if you guys are disappointed that i didn't carry on in Kyle's but i think it's just more effective like this. thanks for understanding)

^

"No, Kyle you're cheating" I holler crossing my arms with the golf stick in my hand.

"Am not" He shouts a few feet in front of me while attempting to sink his 10th ball in a row into the hole.

I groan "No fair"

After our dinner, Kyle decided to take us mini-golfing. I don't even know this place but it's nice. It's late so we're the only ones here. I asked him again how he knew of it and he gave me the same response: "I know people". I'm not complaining because we've been having so much fun.

"Come closer, let me show you how this thing is done" He beckons and I do that.

I took off my heels because they were killing me so now I'm just walking barefoot. The make-play grass is good enough so I don't mind.

"Go on" I say.

He offers me a smirk before standing in formation and I watch "So you need to concentrate on your target and aim very precisely. Don't be distracted"

"I tried that but it doesn't work" I whine.

"Babe, you know you're always thinking about something so try not to. Just focus on the target"

I shove him away "Okay, let me try"

"If you get this one in, I'll give you a treat" He offers me a mischievous smile and I just shake my head at him.

Dumbass.

I try to concentrate on my target as I aim with my eyes. I really want to prove Kyle wrong so I have to get this one. I apply my golf stick with the right amount of pressure as I hit my ball and I watch in slow motion as it starts to roll. It almost goes in.... almost but it goes around the hole, landing just next to it and I groan annoyed.

"That was better" Kyle compliments.

I pout huffing "I suck"

"Calm down" He says amused before I feel him standing behind me "How about I help you out?"

"Mh-hm" I hum momentarily enjoying his close proximity to me. He's always so warm.

His hand is on top of mine on the golf stick and he stands in such a way that he can see in front of me and that we can both move easily. I feel him kiss my neck and I giggle.

"Focus" I beckon.

"Right" He chuckles, his hot breath fanning my neck "Okay... so you want to be relaxed and concentrated, right?" I nod as he sways my hips gently as if to ease me of any tension "You don't want to apply too much pressure on the ball, just enough" He continues.

Why is his voice soothing and such a turn on?

"Yeah" I drawl.

"So..." He starts to move his hand on the golf stick and mine follows suit "Like that, are you feeling the difference?" I nod. He continues to show me and it gets easier "Okay, so we're gonna try and take a swing at it"

"Let's do it" I say confidently.

We strike the ball and I watch in slow motion again as it rolls and then it actually sinks into the hole.

"Yay!" I start jumping around happily.

This is a big deal, people! This is my first bulls eye of the whole night. I've been missing like a blind bat.

Kyle hugs me, also very enthusiastic, and twirls me around. This is heaven. He is heaven.

"Okay, do you want to try on your own now?" He asks after we've sobered up and he puts me down.

"I'm scared of failure" I mumble.

He laughs shaking my shoulders so I'm less stiff "Come on, you can do it"

"I don't know..."

"How about this... if you sink it, I'll tell you a secret I've been keeping since the day I met you" He says nonchalantly as if speaking about the weather.

I frown "You've been keeping a secret?"

"It's a good secret. Stop worrying so much" He rolls his eyes amused "So... are we on?"

"Fine"

He grins "Good. Take your time"

He moves to go stand a few feet away from me to give me my space. I stand in formation and take deep breath to try and concentrate my hardest. I remember to relax as I place my hand on the golf stick. I zero in on my target and eye my ball. Deep breath. The fact that I really want to hear Kyle's secret motivates me even more. I think I got it... I strike the ball with just the right amount of pressure and watch my ball roll away.

...

...

"Touchdown" Kyle yells when it has sunk in the hole and I start clapping happily again, very proud of myself.

"I did it!"

Kyle is next to me in a matter of seconds to join in on my excitement "I'm proud so give me a kiss"

"No. First tell me your secret" I demand.

His face is serious in a matter of seconds, causing me to frown alarmed "Lets sit down first"

This adds more to my anxiety.

"Kyle, you're scaring me" I say as I absentmindedly follow him to a seat.

We're sitting down and watching each other. I'm frowning and biting my lip because my anxiety is at a high. What could he possibly have to tell that's this serious. He looks nervous too...

"So" He starts, his voice slightly hoarse "I have to tell you something"

"Is it what you wanted to say at the restaurant?"

He nods "Yeah..."

"Okay, I'm listening. Please don't break up with me" I blurt involuntarily.

He bursts out laughing "Really?"

"Yes" I whine serious "Promise"

"I'm not going to break up with you, Chelsea-Anne. That should be the least of your worries ever"

I smile "Okay good"

"So, uh, last night when we were going on about how much I love being your first in anything, you're also my first in a lot, even if you don't realize it so I'm going to tell you"

I gulp.

I can already tell that I'm going to be crying at the end of this.

"Chelsea-Anne, your presence in my life has quite honestly been the best thing to happen to me. You're the first person to ever make me feel like that. Half of this speech is going to sound cheesy as fuck but it's all true" He chuckles lightly and I can already feel tears welling in my eyes.

"Kyle..."

"You make me so fucking happy, without even trying. Your laugh, your smile, your voice, that beautiful face... that's all I need to feel okay. You're quite literally my light in the darkness, and you know how dark it can get" I nod, wiping some tears from my cheek "Don't cry, baby. I don't like it when you cry"

"These are happy tears" I laugh as more escape my eyes and he wipes them off.

"Fuck, you know what? If I don't say this in the next second I'm literally going to explode" He says more to himself but I hear him.

"What?"

He sighs, his grey eyes piercing so intensely and deeply into mine that I actually start to shake "Chelsea-Anne Richards, I am in love with you. I love you. I probably have since the first day I met you. I love you"

WHAT?!

I actually start to sob. SOB. Like, ugly cry and I cover my wet and definitely ruined face. I just never expected this. I'm so happy. Kyle loves me. This feeling is so overwhelmingly good.

"Oh no, you're crying. You don't love me" His voice is soft and sad.

He thinks I don't love him.

"Shit, shit, what have I done! Fuck, I knew it was too soon. Jesus, I've just scared her away. Fuck, what was I thinking" He's basically having a conversation with himself and making me cry more.

Why is he so cute?!

"Kyle!" I say his name softly but he doesn't hear me because he's too busy muttering things. I wipe my face as I sober up "Kyle" Still not hearing me "Kyle!" I basically scream and he finally looks up at me, his eyes wide.

"Please stop crying" He pleas "Shit I'm sorry okay? I didn't kn..."

"I love you" I interrupt before he can start rambling again, with a huge smile on my face "I love you, Kyle Chambers"

He stays quiet for a while, just watching me as my smile widens "You do?"

I nod "Yes. A lot"

"You do? You love me?" His eyes are so vulnerable that I just want to hold him in my arms and kiss him until we both stop breathing.

I smile happily "Yes. I love you"

His face starts to move closer to mine "You do, baby?"

Oh my gosh, this guy.

"Yes, Kyle, I fucking love you. I'm in love with you. Only you" I basically shout, just in case he's not hearing me clearly.

He gives me the biggest smile I've ever seen on his face and the next thing I know is that his lips are on mine and I respond immediately. The kiss is loving and so passionate that I almost pass out. Electricity, sparks, butterflies... it doesn't get better than this.

"I love you" He whispers against my lips.

"I love you too" I respond, the words sounding so right.

He kisses me again before pulling back.

"I don't think I'll ever get used to saying or hearing that" He admits breathlessly "You're the only girl I've said it too. Sounds so foreign but I like it, and I mean it Chelsea-Anne. I really do"

My heart...

I blush happily "I mean it too"

"I would've loved to take you home right now and make love to you all night but yeah" He laughs awkwardly and I remember my situation.

Never have I hated nature as much as I do right now. This is unfair. I want him!

"Damn. You have the worst timing ever"

He laughs "I was going to explode if I held it in a second longer"

"A horny ex-virgin who's on her period" I utter shaking my head "Never fun."

"Oh my gosh" Kyle throws his head back.

I join in on his laughing "If it helps you feel better, I also would've love to have you make love to me all night"

"I know, baby" He kisses my lips.

"I love you" I utter against his "So much. Sorry I didn't say it first because I've felt like this for such a long time that I can't even remember. I was just scared"

"Shh. I love you"

And he seals our love with a kiss.
