Chapter 9: A Night to Remember

I rushed down the hallway my mind on high alert trying to find a place to hide. I'd say I have a good thirty seconds to find someplace to hide before Dolly and the puppies get up here.

I checked a nearby closet unfortunately for me it was filled with boxes and coats. Then I tried the bathroom, but it there's nowhere to run if I get caught in there.

"In here, quickly!", Someone whispered. I looked over to see Dizzy and Dee Dee, two of the many sisters Dolly had peaking through a cracked door motioning me to come in the room. "Oh thank god!, You two are life savers.", I said relieved.

There was an opening and I'm gonna take it. I dashed into the room shutting the door behind me silently as to not give away my position. "I really appreciate the help gir-"

My jaw dropped and my eyes shrunk. Dolly stared back at me along with Dizzy, and Dee Dee. All three of them smiling at me. "TICKLE FIGHT!!!"

My body briskly went into panic mode. Before I could get the chance to take off I was pinned to the floor by Dizzy, and Dee Dee. "You little traitors!", I yelled. Dee Dee and Dizzy tickled my sides.

Dolly tickled my belly. This attention to my body instinctively causing me to thrash around and squirm. The sensation made me burst into an agressive fit of laughter. Thankfully I used the bathroom not too long ago.

"Please stop!", I giggled. "Uncle! Uncle!"

The tickling abruptly came to a halt. Dolly's little sidekicks took off leaving me and Dolly by ourselves. She kneeled helping me up off the floor.

"You're so cute when you're happy.", She affectionately complemented.

"Gee Thanks.", I retorted ignoring the sudden build of a warm feeling within me. "Oh Aaron! I got something to show ya.", Dolly blurted heading over to her closet.

"What about the puppies?", I asked worried about them being supervised.

"Don't worry Dawkins is always on the watch when his big brother and sister are gone, RIGHT DAWKINS!!??"

"WHAT!!??", He screamed back.

"See he's got it."

I rolled my eyes, "If you say so Dolly. So, What is it you wanted to show me again?". She opened the closet door which instead of holding clothes there was a ladder leading to what I assumed was the attic.

"Come on."

I scaled the ladder making sure to take my time. The last thing I want is to trip and fall. Once I fully climbed the ladder I attentively inspected the room. This house was big anyway so I'm not suprised there are more rooms in here that I was unaware about.

The room was medium sized with wooden floors and walls. In the floor was a twin sized mattress that sat under a skylight. "I usually come here when I need some alone time. It's not much though.", Dolly mentioned. She sat down on the right side of the mattress patting the left side telling me to sit next to her.

Sitting down next to her I noticed the full moon gleaming down on us. "Would you look at that.", I said in amazement. The moon was always a good sign for me. "A full moon, Beautiful huh?"

"Sure is.", Dolly agreed. "Um...Aaron there's been something I've been meaning to ask you."

"Yeah.", I took my eyes off the moon giving her my full attention. "Have you ever had a girlfriend?", She asked and I was taken aback.

"No. Your the first girl I know that's my age as a friend.", I responded.

"No, I mean as have you ever been romantically involved with a girl?", She repeated. I nodded no in embarrassment. "Is there a girl you like?", She pried.

Oh god...What do I say? What am I thinking? This is my opportunity to express my feelings for her, I shouldn't lie about this.

"Well...I like you.", I confessed. I could see how flabbergasted she was with my answer. This was so embarrassing. "I know you don't feel the same way. What was I thinking? You don't like me. I'm sor-"

My words were quickly cut off as she pressed her lips against mine into a soft kiss. My heart melted and I calmed down. She had a sweet taste suprisingly to her. I shut my eyes indulging in this pleasurable moment. A couple seconds go by and we brake away from the kiss.

"I love you too.", She admitted in a heartwarming way. "Was it good?"

"It was amazing.", I replied blushing insanely. My first kiss by a girl I actually liked. "So... does this mean were a thing now?"

"Of course you little cutie.", She joked. "But were gonna take this slow. We don't wanna rush this. So what do you wanna do for the rest of the night?"

I then got an idea to make this night just a bit better. I pulled out my phone going to my music playlist. I put my speaker on selecting a song that really fit the mood. I selected, "Perfect by Ed Sheeran".

Dolly scooted closer to me resting her furry head on my shoulder. I then wrapped an arm around her bringing her closer.

Her hand placed was over top of mines. We both admired the Moon's beauty. "I just wanna spend the rest of tonight with you. I love you Dolly."

A/n: Well it's finally happened Dolly and Aaron are a thing now. How do you guys feel about this? What would their Shipping name be?
