I woke up with a soft groan, my eyes fluttering open. Faint rays of sunshine seeped into the room through the curtains, and I could smell the familiar scents of home.

I slowly sat up with a grunt, holding my head. I was on my bed... what happened?

Wasn't I out with Gold? That wasn't a dream was it? No... it had to have been real. I barely dream anymore.

I jumped and cried out in surprise when Gold popped out of nowhere."Morning sleeping beauty!" He called, grinning.

I tensed. "What are you doing in my house!?"

He shrugged and sat on my bed. Oh god... "You kinda blacked out at the park all of a sudden. You wouldn't wake up you know!" He pouted. "You could at least thank me for dragging your ass all the way back here. You're heavier than you look." He accusingly pointed a finger at me. "Also, you lied to me. Your house looks perfectly fine."

I glared as he laid down, sighing in content. "Don't make yourself comfortable."

"Aww, come on, Silv!" He sat up and raised a finger. "You should be nice to your guests."

"Like hell." I didn't want him in my house! Especially not in my room, and definitely not in my bed!

"Shouldn't you be somewhere? Like... work? Or with that girl you mentioned? I'm sure they're more important than hanging around me all day."

"But we haven't talked in ages, Silver. You're more important to me right now." He winked at me, and I clenched my fist.

He's not going to leave no matter what I do... great. Just great. I hang out with him for one day and all of the things that could go wrong went wrong. I locked myself up for a reason... I knew today wasn't going to be a good day...

"Hey, you got anything to eat? I'm starving."

"Just because you took me home doesn't mean you get to raid my fridge."

"Harsh. Who's the one who took you in when you were homeless and living like a hobo?" He pointed a thumb at himself. "Me."

"Technically it was your mother." I muttered.

"Whatever! You still owe me!"

I rolled my eyes. "Fine, but I don't have much so don't get greedy." I watched as he smiled and walked out and into the kitchen. I groaned and flopped back onto my pillow.

Come on, Silver, think. What could you do to trick him in leaving...

I heard my pokegear vibrate, and I looked on my bedside table where it was sitting. I sighed heavily and sat up, grabbing it and reading what it said. It was from Blue...

Did you tell him yet?

I flushed. Did she really think I was going to tell him anything? Like hell!

No, and I never will. Stop bothering me about it.

I sent the text, crossing my arms in frustration. Even if I wanted to tell him, he'd probably have a heart attack. The sheer fact that me of all people grew to have feelings for someone is ridiculous on its own.

Oh, but you'll have to sooner or later~

I furrowed my eyebrows. No. He'll never know.

Hehe, you still at the park?

No, apparently I passed out and he carried me back home. He's still here.

Aww, that's so cute!

I felt my face heat up again. That wasn't cute! It was embarrassing!

Shut up! I texted back angrily. I looked up when Gold walked in, holding a bag of chips and bottle of water. He sat next to me on the bed, and I shied away.

"Gold... you really don't have to stay here. You can leave if you want."

He gave me a look of confusion. "Leave? Why would I leave you alone if you're so sick?"

"It's not that big of a deal, I'll be fine."

"Nah, I'm gonna stick around until I know you'll be fine." He opened the bag and began stuffing his face. I looked away and stared at an uninteresting spot on the wall.

Great, the one and only person on this planet that I have feelings for is in my bed. What could possibly go wrong!?

"So, uh, Blue told me you ate a rare candy?" Gold rose an eyebrow in question, and I sighed.

"She dared me to. I'm not that crazy."

"Obviously you are since you actually did it."

I rolled my eyes. "It's not that important."

Gold sighed and set the chips down. "Hey... Silver...?"

"Hm?"

"There's actually something I want to talk to you about..."

I tensed at the sudden serious tone in his voice. Gold? Being serious? This has to be joke.

"Fine, but make it quick."

"I uh... well, I want to start off with that I hope this doesn't change anything. I don't want to make things awkward, but I have to get it off my chest so...

I gulped, my heart thudding a mile a minute. I don't like where this is going...

"Have you ever liked anyone, Silv?"

I gripped the bedsheets between my fingers. "No..."

"Kissed anyone?"

I felt my face heat up a bit. "Why are you asking me this?"

Gold sighed, staring up at the ceiling. He was being weird... "So... I know you're not the best person to talk to about this, but I'm just wondering what your opinion is." He looked at me, an unknown emotion sparkling in his eyes. "If you ever fell in love with someone, what would you do?"

Well, since we're talking metaphorically... "Tell them... I guess. Isn't that what you should do?" I scowled. "Why are you asking me this? Is it that girl?"

He scoffed. "No, I barely know her name." He gave me a smile. "But I guess you should tell them right? How you feel?"

"That's the most logical thing to do."

"But what if you're afraid of rejection?"

"Well..." I looked down at my hands. "At least you told them, right? That's all that matters."

He sighed heavily. "Right... just tell them, huh?" He smirked and sat up. He then grabbed my hands, and I flinched at the contact.

What is he...?

"Silver... I have to tell you something."

My heart started doing jumping jacks. Please don't tell me... he's not... he can't... no...

He paused and let out a small chuckle. "I like you. A lot. I wanted to tell you sooner, but you were avoiding me so..." He shook his head. "I just really like you, okay?" He rubbed my hands with his thumbs. "Even if you're a big pain in my ass, I can't stop thinking about you. And it's a little weird, but I don't care. All I know is that I've never felt like this about someone before..."

Everything froze. Time. Space. Everything. Gold. The ladies man. The hotshot. Ego himself. He likes me. Me? No... he's joking... he has to be. This is some sort of sick joke... though the sincerity in his gaze gave me every bit of proof that this wasn't a joke. He... really...

I inhaled sharply, my face burning. I shoved him away in reflex, hearing him grunt in pain as he fell off the bed.

He laughed it off as he stood, rubbing his head. "Yeah, I expected something like that. I figured." He picked up his bag and hat, which fell off his head. "I'll be going then. Sorry for bothering you." He turned and walked out of my room. I sat there, stunned.

Gold... likes me...

Of all the things that could have come out of his mouth... he...

I jolted. Wait... Gold likes me? It's not one sided! What am I doing just sitting here!? I need to tell him how I feel too!

I got off my bed and ran out of my room. Gold had his hand on the front door knob. "Gold, wait!"

He stopped and turned slightly to look at me. I gulped, suddenly feeling choked up and nervous.

There's nothing to be scared about... he feels the same! All you have to do is tell him!

"I..." I swallowed. "Me too."

He rose an eyebrow. "What?"

"I... like you too..." I murmured. Gold's eyes widened and he dropped his bag carelessly on the floor, walking over to me. I backed up until I felt my back press against the wall.

"Gold, w-wait-mmph!" I was cut off as he leaned down and tilted my chin up, pressing his lips against mine.

I tightly gripped the sleeves on his jacket, shutting my eyes. My mind was all over the place. I almost couldn't believe this was happening... he's kissing me...

We slowly broke the kiss, and I stared up at him, dazed. He simply smirked.

"Was that your first kiss?" He asked, voice arrogant.

I nodded shyly and he chuckled. "Well here's your second one." He kissed me again, gently placing a hand on my waist while the other gripped my hair.

I grunted into the kiss, my hands finding their way to his own hair, threading my fingers through it.

Maybe this day won't suck after all...
