Short Chapter

Dalia

I wasn't expecting that at all but I know that I love him as well but due to how shocked I was, I stammered

"I. I. I-" Jay cut me off

"Lia, you don't have to say it back if you're not ready or sure bout this. I just wanted to let you know how I truly felt and I understand that this may be a little bit to fast so if it's time you need, I'll give you that" he said in a soft voice and I could hear and see the hurt

I was about to answer before he once again cut me off

"We should head back" he turned and walked away towards the car

I stood there for a few minutes trying to process what just happened before rushing after him

"Jayden!" he just kept walking

"JAYDEN!!!" I yelled out with desperation

Probably sensing my distress he halted right before the door to the car

I ran up to him "You know that's just mean, you never gave me a chance to express my feelings and just decided to walk away. Bello, I love you too baby, you've shown me what it means and feels to be loved. You're my happiness and God forbid that I lose you. Te Amo Amore Mio" without giving him a chance to speak I tiptoed wrapping my arms around his neck and pressed my lips to his pouring out all my emotions into the kiss tugging at his hair a little causing him to groan. We made out for a bit before heading home joining our friends at the beach and then going to bed after some chatting

***
Next morning, we were all awake except Ash and Flo. Yas send me to go get them and I head upstairs to their room

I knocked twice but haven't heard back from them so I opened finding the door unlocked only to be shocked at the scene in front of me

I quickly turned and shut the door before running downstairs

"Lia, are you okay? You look like you've seen something" Jay said giving me some water which I gladly took and finished in one gulp

"I..Them..Omgosh" I stumbled still in shock

"Okay Dal, calm down" Yas said as she tried to calm me down

Few seconds later I was I able to recollect myself

"Ash and Flo" I paused trying to get the words out "They didn't hear me when I was knocking on the door so I entered since the door was unlocked only to see that t. they were making out with one another"

"What!!" Gina shrieked

"Really??" Yas said going upstairs to see for herself

We heard a scream few moments later as Yas came running downstairs repeatedly saying 'OMG'

I gave her a 'I told you so look' as she tried calming herself

Moments later the two came down with flustered faces

"Heys guys" they said in unison looking anywhere but at us

"So... Wanna explain what that was" Jay said

"I think it's kind of obvious as to why that happened since you'll know that we have had feelings for one another for a while but was to scared of how things would be if one of us rejected the other" Ash said shrugging his shoulders

Flo moved towards the chairs in the kitchen to sit "So yesterday night, we talked about it and I guess what you saw today confirmed that we are now dating, I'm so sorry I didn't get to tell you guys but this also just happened a few hours ago"

Lia came to me and wrapped her arms around my waist facing the people
I leaned down and kissed her forhead

"I'm happy for you guys" Lia says as

The rest of us congratulated them and forgot this debacle heading to the breakfast table to eat and plan the day activities

Soon enough we only had one week left before we had to return back home

That week we went shopping for souvenirs to take home, we went to the fair that took place but we mostly spent the week at home and the beach talking about upcoming exams, finding someone for George, college and all the events in life that we are yet to experience

We had so much fun, this is something I would treasure because not only did the ship I was hoping for to sail but Jay and I also said our L-word and that is definitely the best feeling ever
