"Because they do; they do find you attractive..." Gary said softly. He clutched her hands trying to not let her escape.
"Like who... name three people... in fact... just name one! because no one can think of three people for me..." Miranda said angrily, also a little sad.
"Me..." Gary added, holding her hand a little tighter.
"There's no need to make things up to comfort me..." Miranda moaned before shaking her hands free. "Enjoy Hong Kong..." she added before racing out of the restraunt.
Gary looked around heart broken. The truth was, he does find her attractive. Massivley so... he finished his beer before grabbing his back pack.
Miranda lay on her couch, sobbing softly to herself. The man she had been in love with for the majority of her life was leaving, and she couldn't handle it.
There was a knock at the door.
"Go away..." Miranda shouted, whoever it was, Miranda wasn't bothered.
They knocked again.
Miranda rose and opened the door, obviously they didn't intend to follow her wish. She opened the door.
Gary stood there his hands in his pockets, tears down his cheeks. The first time she had ever seen him cry. "I can't go!" He sobbed.
Miranda wrapped her arms around him. "Why?!" She whispered.
"I can't leave you... this could be the last time I see you... and I can't handle it... because the truth is; I do find you attractive, even if you don't believe me... and I think... No... I AM in love with you..." he said desperatley.
Miranda looked at him, lost for words. Her mouth had turned into a goldfish... opening without a sound. She stayed like this for several minitues.
Gary kissed her head; his eyes closed, trying to stop the tears. "I might see you again..." he whispered before turning away and heading back out the door, picking up his back pack.
"No Gary... wait!" Miranda squealed grabbing hold of the front of his shirt spinning him around and planting her lips on his.
There first kiss...Or, there first snog. Gary face was all flustered and his hands waved unsure what to do before dropping his back pack from his shoulder and resting them in her hair. pulling her closer to him.
They pulled apart breathless.
"I love you too..." Miranda added before Gary pulled her back in for a kiss. He pushed them forward, closing the door behind them and locking it. He then picked her up as she wrapped her legs around his waist, her arms around his neck. Much like a koala bear. He slowly led her to her bedroom.
