Aaron's pov

After class I was walking to my locker when my shoulder was grabbed and I was spun around.

"Aaron." Zane's chipmunk voice said.

"What Zane?" I asked.

"I want to meet up after class because I need to tell you something. Meet me at class 261." Zane said and then disappeared into his next class.

I was confused to as why Zane asked me to meet him. He never has talked to me unless it's something about Aphmau.

****

All my classes ended and I went to class 261. The classroom was empty and dark. I didn't see Zane so I stepped in.

Then, the door behind me closed and I ran over to it.

"Hey let me out!" I yelled banging my fists on the door.

"Be quiet! I'm trying to help you." I heard Zane's voice and I stopped.

"With wh-"

"Zane!" Aphmau's voice cut me off and I froze. Zane never told me Aphmau was coming.

"What did you need me for?" Aphmau asked.

Zane and Aphmau talked for a few minutes and it seemed Aphmau remembered the same thing I did when we were kids but she was just brushing it off as being kids.

Then, what Zane said next made my face burn red. "Aphmau, do you love Aaron?"

"Y-yes." I heard the stutter in Aphmau's voice and wait.....she said she loves me!

My heart started beating faster but then the door opened. Aphmau stared wide eyed at me and Zane said "There. I got her to admit it. Just don't hurt her."

"Aphmau-" I started but she cut me off by running away.

Her face looked so cute....the way she blushed. "Aphmau!" I yelled and Zane sighed.

"What are you doing? Chase after her!" Zane yelled and I nodded.

I ran down the halls not caring about the bell telling me I still had class. All I could think about was Aphmau. I didn't care about the people I ran into I just kept running.

I ran out the doors and looked everywhere. If I still remember Aphmau was living with her parents again.

I ran down the street and saw Aphmau at her front door. She disappeared into the house and I was just about to run through the street when a car horn honked.

I quickly jumped out of the way and the car swerved but went back into place. I stumbled back and fell and tried to calm my heart.

"That was close." I whispered as I calmed my heavy breathing.

I stood back up from the ground and hurried across the street making sure no cars were coming.

"Aphmau!" I yelled as I banged on the door. I tried to open it but the door was locked.

"Aphmau!" I yelled again but got no answer.

I kept knocking on the door but after ten minutes I slid down onto my knees. I wanted to confess to Aphmau so bad. Why won't she let me explain.

"Aphmau! Let me in!" I yelled again. I knew she could hear me so why is she ignoring me?

Aphmau's pov

I could hear Aaron yelling my name but I was way too embarrassed to face him. I confessed to Aaron without even knowing.....two times!

My mom won't be home until 8:00pm but as soon as she gets home she is going to let Aaron in.

I held Celestia and she tilted her head to the side. I smiled and stood up. I looked out my window and could see Aaron still at my door.

Then, my cellphone began to ring. It was my mom. I answered it.

"Hey Aphmau." My moms voice said through the phone.

"Hi. What do you need?" I asked.

"Well work is going to be hectic and I hate to leave you alone for so long but I'm going to be spending the night at work. Working of course, I won't be home till 3 in the morning. Bye." My mom said and before I could protest she hung up.

"Arg! Mom!" I yelled to myself and sighed.

Guess I have no choice but to face Aaron....I'm still so embarrassed. I walked downstairs and Aaron's knocking slowed.

"Aphmau...." Aaron said "I love you."

I froze in my tracks and stared at the door. I don't think he knows I'm here.

"Aphmau, I've loved you ever since we were kids. You were the only person who brought out the real me." Aaron confessed and my face grew hot and I started to feel embarrassed.

"So please....open the door so I can embrace you." Aaron said and I reached out for the door handle.

I opened the door and immediately Aaron was off the ground and I was in his arms. He hugged me tightly and I felt tears in my eyes.

"I love you Aaron! Why did you have to leave that day? I missed you so much." I whispered and Aaron hugged me closer. He felt so cold. How long has he been out there?

Aaron was still in his uniform and I gripped onto his shirt hoping he will never let me go.

"Aphmau. I love you so, so much. I never wanted to leave that day but...because I was a kid nobody listened to me....if it was up to me I would have NEVER left you alone." Aaron said and pulled away.

We looked into each other's eyes and Aaron started to lean down. I closed my eyes when his lips met mine and I felt my heart flutter.

I finally got what I've wished for, for so long.....I get a place in Aaron's heart.

Oh my Irene. I felt like my heart was gonna explode when I wrote this haha! Finally! A romantic part! I loved writing this and I hope you all enjoyed the cute romantic part. Bye my Ender Pearls!
