A/N: This one is sort of long but I hope you enjoy. Please review! I don't know to update if you don't review!
Annabelle walked inside and smiled widely at her aunt that was sitting on the couch watching tv.
"You look like you had a good day." Aunt Elizabeth said happily.
Annabelle walked over to her aunt and took a seat next to her on the couch. "I really did." Annabelle bit her lip and let out a loud sigh.
"Is there something you want to talk about?" Elizabeth asked sincerely.
Annabelle turned to her aunt and smiled. This was so different to Annabelle, her own mother didn't like talking to her. She took in a deep breath and decided she'd just mention Adam to her aunt and see the reaction.
"I spent the day with a guy friend of mine." Annabelle said quickly. She decided not to tell her the truth of Adam being her boyfriend. She was going to work up to that later.
"Oh, just a guy friend?" Elizabeth questioned her.
Annabelle nodded but couldn't help but smile just thinking about Adam. He made her heart flutter and her stomach get butterflies. He was perfect for her. She'd never had someone completely make her fall for them like Adam had.
"I think I like him." Annabelle said to her aunt.
"Already?" Elizabeth replied with questioning eyes.
"He's so different than anyone else I've met." Annabelle said in a matter of fact way.
"Well, don't rush things." Elizabeth sweetly replied.
Annabelle nodded once more, "I don't plan to. Anyways I'm going upstairs. Goodnight." She said quickly as she stood from the couch. She waved to her aunt before running up the stairs and into her room. She threw herself on the bed and began to smile uncontrollably. She'd never been this happy. Moving to Canada was honestly the best thing that ever happened to her.
She picked up her cell phone and dialed Clare's number. Clare was slowly becoming her best friend right now she needed to talk to her.
"Hey!" Clare answered energetically.
"Clare bear!" Annabelle replied on the other end of the phone.
"How'd you know that nickname?" Clare said with an annoyed tone.
Annabelle laughed loudly, "Adam told me."
"Should've known." Clare replied happily.
"Speaking of Adam, we spent the day together." Annabelle said excitedly to Clare.
"And how'd that go?" Clare said intrigued.
"Clare, he's perfect for me. It's just so crazy." She said quickly.
"Well according to Eli, Adam says the same thing about you." Clare giggled on the other line.
"There's only one problem, maybe it's too perfect?" Annabelle questioned herself.
"Nothing can be too perfect. You'll have issues and you'll work through them. It'll be fine Annabelle, don't worry." Clare said reassuringly.
Annabelle nodded and took in a deep breath, "Now I know why I called you." She paused. "You know just what to say."
"Well, I try." Clare replied simply.
"Thanks Clare." Annabelle said as her cell beeped loudly into her ear. She pulled the phone away from her face and saw an incoming call from Adam.
"Adam's calling, so call you later?" Annabelle said quickly to Clare.
"Of course. Have fun!" Clare said happily.
Annabelle pulled the phone away to answer the phone, but soon realized she'd missed the call. Please call back, She thought to herself as she stared down at the phone. Ten minutes later her cell rang once more.
"Hello!" She said as she answered the phone.
"Hey beautiful." Adam replied on the other end. Annabelle's face instantly turned into a smile as she heard the voice of her boyfriend on the other end of the phone.
"Miss me already?" She said jokingly.
"Every second we're apart." He said with a laugh.
"I knew it!" Annabelle laughed loudly.
"Can I come over?" Adam asked her nervously.
Annabelle looked around and began to think of an excuse. She didn't know if she was ready for him to meet her family, but she knew she couldn't lie to him. Annabelle has made up her mind.
"Of course Adam." She replied nervously.
"Be there in ten." He said as he closed the phone.
Annabelle sat very still on her bed as she realized she'd eventually have to tell her aunt and uncle about Adam's secret, but for now she'd keep it a secret. Annabelle stood up and ran down the stairs happily.
"Well, it looks like you're going to meet my friend." Annabelle said quickly to her aunt.
"He's coming over?" She questioned. Annabelle nodded her head and took a seat next to her aunt as they waited for the doorbell to ring. To Annabelle it felt like hours as she waited for Adam to arrive at the house. Annabelle turned to the door as they both heard footsteps on the porch quickly followed by the loud doorbell. Annabelle sprang up from the couch and opened the door. She smiled at Adam and motioned for him to come inside.
"Hey.." Annabelle said quietly to Adam as he stood next to her. Annabelle looked between her aunt and Adam and quickly sprang to life.
"Aunt Elizabeth this is Adam." She paused briefly before continuing. "Adam this is my aunt Elizabeth."
Adam smiled over at Elizabeth before extended his hand to her, "It's nice to meet you." Elizabeth took his hand and shook it gently, "Same to you sweetheart."
Annabelle bit her lip as the two began to talk to each almost as if Annabelle wasn't even there. "Why don't we have some ice cream?" Annabelle said.
"Sounds good." Elizabeth replied and the three people walked into the kitchen. Annabelle, Adam, and Elizabeth sat in the kitchen for over two hours talking about everything from Elizabeth's work to Adam's family and even about Julia. The daughter she'd lost only a year ago.
"Well I'm going upstairs. Goodnight kids." She said happily as she left the kitchen leaving the two sitting.
"She likes you." Annabelle said as Elizabeth had disappeared from view.
"Good that's what I wanted." He replied.
"Ya know what?" Annabelle asked him.
"Huh?" Adam was confused.
"I like you too." She replied sweetly to him.
"That's really what I want." He replied before stepping closer to Annabelle. Annabelle took in a deep breath as Adam was only inches from her. This was the first time Adam had acted like this without Annabelle having to tell him to. Adam moved his face closer to her's and waited patiently for her to close the gap. She smiled and quickly placed her lips gently on his. Adam kissed her back with more passion than he'd ever done before. When they pulled away from each other Annabelle took in a few deep breaths.
"Wow…." Adam said quietly to Annabelle.
"Wow is right…" She replied back.
"I've got to go." Adam said sadly.
Annabelle nodded her head. "I know. Goodnight Adam Torres.
Adam smiled happily, "Goodnight Annabelle Harrison.
He turned away from her and walked out the front door. Annabelle looked around before running out the door after him. Adam heard footsteps on the porch behind him and instinctively stopped. Annabelle ran up to him and pulled his lips back to hers. She never kissed anyone like this her entire life. She let everything out in that one kiss. Annabelle wrapped her arms up around his neck and continued the passionate kiss. Adam broke the kiss and smiled down at the girl in front of him.
"You're perfect." He said quietly to her.
"No I'm not." She said sweetly.
"I think you are." Adam replied.
"You're crazy." Annabelle laughed happily and placed one more kiss on Adam's lips before turning away from him and running back up the stairs of the porch.
"Bye Mr. Torres!" She shouted behind her as she closed the front door of her house.
