And just like that I was done!
Done thinking,
done waiting,
done suffering.

I was going to get what I wanted.
And that was today!

As I approched him, I felt my body stiff.
He sensed me and turn around shotting me a crooked grin.
My knees instantly went weak, but I recovered.

"Hey Bella. What's up?"
My eyes met his and we froze staring at each others eyes.
Looking at those pools of green, that made anyone lost track of reality.
I sensed he could see into my soul just by staring.
I felt naked right now.
I breathed deep and closed my eyes for reassurance.

"Edward we need to talk... well I need to talk."
He forrowed his browns and suddently in his eyes were confusion and desperation.
"Sure Bella."
We went to the back of the schoolm behind the gym building where no one would go.
"Edward... I need to say this or I'll explode. I know this is only one way, in some way I can feel it, but I need to take this out of my chest or I'll just burst into flames."
He didn't say a word, only nodded for me to continue.
"Edward. Since the day I came here from Phoenix I noticed you, like... who doesn't right?" I laught more to myself. "And you always help me in what you could, you've been a great friend to me really and I appreciate every thing you've done. But I... I've been feeling more and more thowards you, and I'm sorry if I leave you uncomfortable saying this..." My eyes droped to my feet but I continued. "And well I've been meaning to get you attencion, but I'm awkward and stupid and a geek so I never do. But I found courage and I'm saying this now. And if you wish I'll never talk to you again, ever!" My hands were shaking but I had to say the final words so I could have clouser.
"I-I lo-love you Edward." And my face and whole body started to heat up from my blush.
There was a heavy silence in the air but I wouldn't dare to look at him.
Silence...
More Silence...

Then all of a suddent his hands were in my face.
"Bella, do you honestly never noticed the way I look at you? Or the way I act around you, and the fact that I'm always making stuff up so we could spend time together? Really? Because I've been told I was getting pretty obvious. I guess not." He chucled lightly and lifted my chin up so I could look at him. His voice was calm and velvet like.
"Bella, you're silly for not seeing this, and I guess I am too, because obviously I haven't been able to read your signs at all. And Isabella, you are not stupid, by any means, ok? And yes you are a little geek, but that only makes you even more adorable." My blush was getting more and more evident in my face. I could believe that he... Edward felt the same way that I did.
Shit!
"So Isabella... Bella, I'm confident now to say that..." He brushed is fingers along my jaw and down my neck, cupping the back of it and making circles in my skin.
"...that I love you too Bella. So much, that it's even unimaginable."
And like that our lips met, our eyes frozen in one another, but slowly closing to absorve every second of this moment.
That day, was the day my life begun.
