The Middle Man

Motives

-next day-

I woke up on the couch with a sleeping Kian right next to me. Waking up I had little to no recollection of the night before, and seeing Kian startled me.

I screamed, he might have been sleeping before but he certainly wasn't anymore. How did this happen I couldn't remember too much and my eyes hurt and I was truly misunderstanding the scene here.

"Rosi stop yelling!" He said grabbing at my shoulders to calm me down. His reaction almost made me laugh but I needed to focus on the environment here, why were we sleeping on the couch? It was like a huge dream I was imagining, but maybe it wasn't a dream. Did what happened yesterday really happen?

"I'm just surprised that you're still here." I said to him.

"Yeah I -uh- I guess I am." he said smiling and nodding.

"How did we not get caught?" I asked freaking out, I don't remember what time we must've knocked out. I'm surprised I wasn't waking up to my mom in my face questioning me.

"We didn't do anything wrong, we just feel asleep, ya know, after we kissed ... made out. Calm down though Rosi, you kind of went through a lot yesterday." he told me, and I just stopped what ever I was doing, which was exaggerated fidgeting and heavy breathing.

"Oh. You're right. Yeah." I told him, thinking back to our make out session. It reminded me of last summer. I smiled, once again, at the memory.

"And you said you loved me, are you still right about that?" He asked, all serious.

"Yes. Of course." I told him, loosening up and leaning against him playfully.

"Good, because I wasn't kidding either. But now, no more of last night, forget how it started." He told me kissing my cheek. Finally someone who actually cared about my feelings, and not someone who wanted to control me. Kian was always that type of person for me, that I always knew to be true.

Yeah I guess it was best to get my mind off of things. My mind may have been foggy waking up but I saw clearly now. I remember Drew and his over controlling tendencies reaching a peak. I will never understand why I liked Drew. If you compare Kian and Drew, well it's was an easy choice. Kian was my best friend and definitely more than that by now. Like last night, we actually kissed and before then I wouldn't even talk about a truth or dare kiss with him. I was afraid to admit it to myself but I have liked Kian since that day, he knows it too. Nothing was going to stop me from accomplishing my summer motive, to be more than a guy's best friend, and I was already half way there. Kian was such an unexpected factor in all of this.

As for Drew, he was so out of my sight, like it never even happened. He had the sweet smile and perfect hair but his personality was his greatest fall, and that is important. Kian had it all and I loved it all.
