A/N: Sorry it's been a couple days since I last updated! I've been super busy with school. Anyway, I know this is a short chapter, and I'm sorry, but I just can't make it longer without it seeming to run on. :/ The next couple chapters are gonna be pretty short, but bear with me! I'll try to add more to make the next couple a bit longer, but there's not much that can be added. Anyway, enjoy! :D

Mitchie POV:

Alex is sitting at my vanity, combing her fingers through her hair. She looks goregous in just a green tank top, denim shorts, and green converse. I get up from my spot on the bed and go to kneel behind her. She catches me looking at her, and I look down while smiling. I'm hoping she didn't catch my blush though.

"What's got you in such a good mood this morning?" She asks me, catching me off guard.

"Oh, nothing…" I reply as nonchalantly as I can manage while looking down again, blushing even harder.

"You sure about that?" She asks.

She quickly spins around on the vanity stool, catching me off guard yet again. I hadn't realized how close I actually was to her, but here she is, her face literally inches from mine. She doesn't back up. Neither do I. I'm hypnotized by her brown eyes. I can't help but think of how much I want to kiss her right now. Her soft pink lips are only inches away from mine. As I think this, I glance down at her lips, and quickly back up to her eyes. I'm about to back up, to keep myself from doing something I might regret, but before I can, Alex gently touched her lips to mine.

Yep, that's right. She kissed me. I'm stunned,and it takes me a moment to register what's happening, but as soon as I do I kiss her back, since this is what I've dreamed about since I was twelve.

She cautiously brings her hand up to cup my cheek, as if she's worried that I'll pull away. To reassure her, I wrap my arms around her neck, pulling her closer to me. She wraps her arms around my waist, and pulls me as close to her as possible, until there is no space left between us, and we are completely pressed up against each other.

I am quickly getting lost in the feel of her lips on mine. I am in complete bliss. But before I can get completely lost in the kiss, my dad barges in my room without even knocking.

Me and Alex pull apart as soon as we hear the door open. I look up to see my dad standing there looking completely shocked. I glance over at Alex to see her looking at her shoes, then back at my dad. I'm sure by now my face is tomato red from embarrassment at him finding us like that.

"Uh… can I talk to you for a sec, Mitch?" He asks me, gesturing to the hall.

I glance back over at Alex to find her still studying her shoes before replying.

"Uh, sure." I say as I follow him into the hall, shutting the door behind me.

I stand there looking at my feet, too embarrassed to look at my dad.

"So… you and Alex huh?" He asks me, a smile in his voice. I look up to see him smirking at me.

"What? No…" I trail off, shocked that he doesn't look surprised.

"Then what was that I just walked in on, huh?" He asks me, his smirk growing.

"That was… I don't know." I tell him honestly. I really don't know what brought that on, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy every moment of it.

"You don't know? Don't tell me it was nothing, because it sure didn't look like nothing." He says still smirking.

"It wasn't nothing… I mean, I don't know what it was… I mean, I know what it was, but I don't know what brought it on…" I trail off, getting anxious.

"Calm down. I'm not mad. I always knew you and Alex had a thing for each other." He said, smirking yet again.

"Wait, what?!" I nearly shout.

"The way you guys look at each other, it's clear you love each other." He said, his smirk softening into a gentle smile.

"Well of course I love her, she's my best friend." I state matter-of-factly.

"You know what I mean, Mitch." He says seriously.

"Yeah you're right." I sigh. "I really like her, dad. I have for a long time. I wish I could tell her, but there's no way she'd feel the same…" I said, voicing my worries.

"Tell her, Mitch. I can tell you now that she does feel the same way you do." He tries to reassure me.

"But how do you know?" I ask him, worry written very clearly on my face.

"Because I can see it in her eyes. When she looks at you, well, it's the same exact way you look at her." He tells me.

I take a deep breath; I really don't know what to say when I go back in there…

"Patrick! Come on! We're gonna be late for our reservation!" My mom called up the stairs.

"Coming Connie!" my dad yelled back.

"Well, the reason I came up here was to tell you guys that me and your mom have lunch reservations. We'll be back later. You kids behave, and have fun. But not too much fun." He said while smirking at me.

I was speechless. He laughed at my shocked silence, and left me there. I still don't know what to say to Alex, and I'm suddenly nervous to go back in there, but I know I have to. I take a deep breath, put my hand on the door knob, and I open the door.

Alex POV:

Mitchie and her dad go out into the hallway, and I'm left sitting on Mitchie's vanity stool, staring at my shoes. I'm extremely curious to know what they're talking about after what her dad just walked in on. I can't believe I made such a stupid move. What was I thinking! I shouldn't have kissed her, even though I loved every moment of it. I probably screwed everything up between us. I should probably just leave now before she comes back in the room, but for some reason I can't make myself leave.

My curiosity gets the better of me when I hear Mitchie shout from the other side of the door. I get up and cautiously walk over to the door before pressing my ear up against it. Her dad is talking, probably responding to her shout.

"The way you guys look at each other, it's clear you love each other." He says.

"Well of course I love her, she's my best friend." She states matter-of-factly, making my heart give a painful squeeze. I know she's talking about me because I'm her only best friend. I'm about to move away from the door when I hear her dad continue to talk.

"You know what I mean, Mitch." He says. Wait, what? What does he mean? There's a slight pause before she responds.

"Yeah you're right. I really like her, dad. I have for a long time. I wish I could tell her, but there's no way she'd feel the same…" She admitted. Is she still talking about me? Wait, since when did she like girls?

"Tell her, Mitch. I can tell you now that she does feel the same way you do." He tries to reassure her.

"But how do you know?" She asks.

"Because I can see it in her eyes. When she looks at you, well, it's the same exact way you look at her." He tells her. At this point I'm almost positive that they're talking about me. I look at her like she's the only girl I see. Because she is. But does she look at me like that? That'd be too good to be true.

I hear Connie call for Mitchie's dad, although all I heard was a mumble through the door.

"Well, the reason I came up here was to tell you guys that me and your mom have lunch reservations. We'll be back later. You kids behave, and have fun. But not too much fun." I heard him tell Mitchie. I didn't hear Mitchie respond. I heard her dad laugh, and then there was only silence.

The next thing I know, the door opens, hits me in the head, and I'm on the floor with a headache.

"Oh my God! Are you okay?" Mitchie exclaims.

"Yeah, I'm fine." I say, not wanting her to know I was eavesdropping, although it was kind of obvious.

"Are you sure?" She asks sounding worried.

"Yeah, really I'm fine. Just a slight headache." I tell her with a smile.

She looks at me for a moment before deciding I was okay. She smiles at me and looks into my eyes, making me forget the world for a minute.

When I come back to reality, I remember what happened between us a few minutes ago. I look away and clear my throat, before glancing up at her from behind my hair. She's still smiling at me. I look back down again, this time I'm blushing. She moves my hair behind my ear, puts her finger under my chin and tilts my head up to look at her.

"Don't hide. You're too pretty to hide." She tells me, my cheeks blazing.

She smiled at my reaction. She still has my chin in her hand, preventing me from hiding my face again. She looks into my eyes before leaning in and placing a gentle kiss on my lips.

I'm shocked. I thought that me kissing her could screw everything up, but she just kissed me out of the blue. I bring my hand up to touch my lips, which are still tingling from her kiss. I probably have the most awestruck and dumbfounded look on my face. When she sees my expression, she quickly looks down and giggles.

"Look Alex, there's something I need to tell you." She says hesitantly.

I look at her, signaling for her to go on.

"Well, you see, I'm kind of… well…" she trails off, looking up at me. I gaze back at her, again awestruck by her beauty. She searches my eyes for something, what I don't know, but she looks like she's found it.

"I'm in love with you." She tells me, staring deep into my eyes.

I think my heart has just exploded. Those five little words were everything I've been wishing to hear since I met her. I can't even formulate a response. I just gaze at her in stunned silence.

She takes it the wrong way.

"I mean, it's okay if you don't feel the same way about me. I mean, how could you? I just thought I should tell you. I don't want to lose you as a friend-." I cut her off with a kiss filled with as much passion as I have in my body, which is a lot. She's caught off guard at first, but quickly kisses me back.

We kiss for a few minutes before we both need oxygen. When we pull apart, we still stay wrapped in each other's arms. I rest my forehead on hers, still breathing heavy.

"I'm in love with you, too." I whisper to her, staring into her eyes. She gives me the biggest smile before pulling me back in for another passionate kiss.

A/N: I'm sure by now you've noticed that when I switch POV I backpedal a bit. I don't really know why, I just feel like it gives a bit more information. I know I hate it when I read something and it switches POV when someone walks out the door and then you don't get to know what is happening on the other side of the door. If that makes sense. Haha, anyway, I hope you can understand my style of writing. I've never written a full story before so I'm going by trial and error here. If you have any suggestions for me it'd be appreciated. Also, I want to say thanks for the lovely reviews so far. You guys are giving me the motivation to finish this that I've been lacking for so long. So thanks. :3
