My One Chance: The Next Morning

To say I woke up with a smile on my face the next morning was a definite yes, I was so happy and I couldn't believe how well last night had gone. I got to kiss the one girl I have been dreaming of kissing and she kissed me back. We kissed and it was the most amazing feeling. Hearing my phone ring, I wondered if it was Hanna trying to convince me to go shopping with her and I was so happy that I might've agreed but then I realised what time of the morning it was; there was no way it was Hanna. Maybe Spencer, wanting an early study session and I knew that would bring me down from my happy high. Then there was the person I hope it was, my amazing girlfriend or was it too soon to call her my girlfriend; even though that's how it felt.

"Hello," I answer the phone panicked just realising I had spent too much time thinking about it that if I hadn't answered it would've gone to voicemail.

"Hey Aria, it's Emily," I heard her whisper into the phone and I was so happy to hear her voice and not Spencer.

"Hi," I say back geeky but it does get a giggle out of Emily, so there was a bonus.

Emily then asked "Are you busy?"

"No I just woke up, why?"

"Yeah I know you did, I can hear the grogginess in your voice but I wasn't sure if that meant you had plans for today."

"No, I'm free and again why?" I asked while trying to not sound groggy.

"Well I'm about to go for a run and I was thinking, if you weren't busy,"

I cut her off with "Emily, like you a lot but you are not seriously asking me to go running with you at seven-thirty on a Saturday morning."

"No but it's nice to know you like me a lot. What I was asking was if after my run, if I was to stop view the brew to pick us up a warm drink and something with way too much sugar in it. Then bring it to your house where we can eat/drink in the privacy of your bedroom, do a little talking and hopefully a lot of kissing?"

"You are adorable, I am definitely up for that."

"Cool, I thought you would be but I didn't know if you had plans."

"Well I'd change them if I'd get to spend some time with you."

"Now you're the one who is adorable, I better get running but I'll text you when I'm on the way to your place."

"Alright Em," I say before we both hung up our phone. I fall back onto my pillow in happiness, Emily was the sweetest and cutest person on this planet and I needed to take this opportunity to work out if she's my girlfriend or not. Panic then dawned on me that my room was a mess and I smelt all sweaty, I needed a shower and to clean my room and all before Emily gets here.

I raced around the house looking like a lunatic to my family, I told them that Emily was coming over and they seemed to understand but made fun of my worriedness; some family right. When I received Emily's text that she was on her way an hour later, I had just finished picking out my outfit which had taken serval minutes and I still needed to straighten bits in my room. The doorbell rang and all of my coolness sank away but I didn't have time to dwell on that because someone else was answering the door. I took off running out of my room, down the stairs and too the front door where Mike stood talking with Emily.

"Mike, go away!" I say as nicely as possible and pushing him away from the door. Mike frizzed up my hair in retaliation and if Emily hadn't been standing there all cute, it would've been the start of a sibling fight.

"Hey," I say in a very dreamy tone of voice.

"Hi," Emily seemed amazed at Mike and my antics.

"Come in," I open the door wider allowing her to step inside. Shutting the door behind her, I take the lead to upstairs and into the safety of my bedroom where no creepy family members could watch us.

"Sorry about my family, they're not normally like this," I say as I close my bedroom door.

Emily replied with "It's okay, I'm guessing their just really excited and happy for us."

"Yeah," I say lingering on the word us in my head.

"I got you a herbal tea since you don't like coffee and a croissant with ham, lettuce and cheese," I watched as Emily worked out what was mine and what was hers, before heading them too me.

"Thanks Emily," I say pecking her on the cheek which brings up a blush.

"What did you get?" I asked.

"Hot chocolate and a chocolate donut, there also one for you," Emily said seeming to have forgotten it before. We sat down on my bed and began eating as well as sipping at our hot drinks, it felt awkward but comfortable at the same time.

"Can I say something?" Emily asked seemingly nervous.

"Of course," I place a comforting hand on her shoulder.

"I don't want to offend you especially because I really like you. Us being together does seem weird, I don't know why but it does to me. But the thing is I've never woken up with a smile on my face so big, I've never gone running in the morning with the same smile on my face and I've never brought anyone breakfast or something over in the morning because I want too. You've changed a lot of how I am in just a single night and I really like this new romantic or happy side of me. I want you to know even if I'm awkward at times or might seem like I don't know what I'm doing, it's because I don't but there's one thing I'm sure on is us."

"That's a lot to take in at once but I understand that I just sprung asking you out on you, you probably had no clue that I felt that way about you. I wanted to ask if you'll be my girlfriend but I'm thinking maybe I shouldn't, maybe I should just enjoy more dates like these first."

"We could do both."

"What do you mean?" I asked confused.

"Ask me to be your girlfriend and I'll say yes, and we can also enjoy more dates together as girlfriends."

"The things you say Emily Fields would make any girl week at the knees."

"As long as that girl you, I don't care."

I smiled cross at Emily before taking a deep breath and asking "Emily Fields would you be my girlfriend?"

"Yes of course Aria, it was so straight-forward of you too ask," Emily said cutely. I saw Emily lean forward and I leant inwards as well our lips joined for a kiss, just like the ones before this was magical and special. After that we spent the rest of the day up in my room talking about everything and nothing at the same time, snuggled up together and just enjoying our girlfriends company.

The End.
