Chapter 30

CIARA'S POV

"ugh! Amy, stand still , will you ?" I hissed . Amy was totally laying on me .

And I was trying to open the fucking door . But I can't be with her .

Why did she drink that much ? Something is surely going on .

She would never get this much wasted for nothing .

"Ciara ?" Asher's voice entered my body . I turned around to see him .

He looks damn hot just standing awkwardly. His eyes pierced mine .

I can't help but melt inside . We have been friends for so long . But I don't know why now , I feel something more for him .

I've been feeling these things from hella long time now . And I can't understand what to do with them.

I mean if only I'm feeling this way . Then it would be so embarrassing.

"Asher? You followed us ?" I asked, trying to act confused .

But I'm stupid . I mean we live in the same fucking building and I'm spewing nonsense .

He chuckled slightly " I live here too Ciara. " he said .

I know you handsome idiot .

"Yeah ,right." I said . Helping Amy to sit on the floor for a while .

"But yeah I followed you too ." He continued.

My eyes widened . I quickly turned to see him .

"Actually ...I.. I wanted to ask you something for a ...long time ." He said, chuckling nervously . Rubbing the back of his neck .

"Uh don't get angry Ciara . Actually I have been wanting to ask you this ...for a very long time ..but I couldn't...well I didn't have enough guts you know ...you were always so strong ...and beautiful ..uh I mean ..I don't know .. I just couldn't hold it in anymore . " he sighed heavily .

And continued " you know I love the way you get annoyed by rain . I love it when you hold up your hair into a bun . The way you hold the camera . The way you take pictures . Your smile . Your laugh . Your incredible ability to get what you want . The way you look after your friends ...uh ..I mean ... oh God !! " he growled rubbing his face .

"I don't know Ciara but I love everything you do ....from the ..uh ... the day I first saw you ..I fell for you ... I wanted to tell you this for a long time ..but I was afraid what would you say .....I never wanted to be just friends with you Ciara. I wanted to be more ..but uh...you see ..I was just so afraid ."

Warm tears of happiness started falling down my cheeks . I couldn't believe it .

Fuck! This was happening . It was really happening .

I can't believe he would have been noticing me since then .

"Uuh..so Ciara...one late question ..I..uh.." he stuttered.

I knew where this was going . He just has to say those words . And I'm gonna melt into his arms .

"Ugh!! Ask her out already , you fucker ." Amy groaned . Sitting on the floor . Cringing her face .

We laughed quietly . I saw Asher eased up . Seeing my messed up face .

He came closer . Cupping my face . Wiping those tears away softly with his thumb .

"Be my girlfriend , Ciara Jones ." Asher said, smiling dangerously sweet .

I nodded " okay." We giggled .

Leaning into a sweet and wonderful kiss . His mouth tasted way too good . I must be reeking with alcohol . But who cares ?

He has to kiss me anyway .

We parted after a few seconds . Resting our foreheads at each other .

"You can't even imagine how long I have waited for this day,"he whispered .

"Yeah you can't. Amy said, stumbling on her feets as she stood up.

I chuckled at my best friend . She should know how cute she looks when she is drunk .

"I like you , Ciara. I like you a lot ." Asher whispered .

"I like you too ,Asher ." I whispered back, smiling softly at him .

My cheeks burned from the hotness in here . I can't handle this . It's too much . But I'm just so fucking happy .

"Awww! Guys I love you both . I'm so happy for you two ." Amy said, faking a cry . Hugging us both .

What is she ? A mother ?

"You are so wasted Amy ." I giggled.

"Shut up . I'm not . I just feel proud of this asshole . He kept this for too long . Now finally it's out ." She smiled cheekily.

"Uh, wait ! Why do I feel like a third wheel here ?" She asked, narrowing her eyes .

"Oh come on ! You are good ." I said holding her still .

"I guess I'll see you tomorrow then ." I waved at Asher. He nodded, smiling at me .

We entered my apartment. I laid Amy on the bed . In the guest room .

Wash up and get to bed .

I couldn't sleep . I can't even get Asher out of my head . He is just so handsome .

The things he said . Oh God I'll die from this happiness.
