I needed to get to the bottom of this... I needed answers. Yeah, Felix telling me he was my "Guardian" was a start but I just wish he would tell me what was happening.

He was still looking at me... my eyes never leaving his gaze and his eyes never leaving mine. In that moment I knew he was going to kiss me and as much as I wanted to, I wouldn't let him... not if it meant he wouldn't tell me what this was all about.

Yes, like I said I met Felix at the beginning of this year and on the very first day we met, we hit it off, we had so much in common and as fate would have it we became really close friends maybe even more than that but we weren't... you know a "couple." In fact I didn't know what to label us as... but we were definitely way more than just friends.

He liked me... Hell he told me he liked me and as much as I would hate to say it, yeah trust me I don't fall for someone that easily... I liked him too.

So here I am standing in this really dark guest bathroom with Felix still gazing at me. From what I read by the way he looked at me, his eyes glistening under the moonlight... he looked like he wanted to tell me something but he hesitated. He looked down his gaze now focused on the floor.

It was like he had something important he wanted to tell me but he couldn't get it out, almost as though he was afraid that the very words he wanted to say would end his life.

Finally he looked up... from what I had observed it looked as though he had been contemplating on how he was going to tell me this "very important thing" he wanted to say. Looking up his eyes caught my gaze once again as my lips parted and then after a moment of practically staring at each other, he spoke... "I guess, I blew my cover." He said scratching the back of his neck as he let out a bit of an "awkward" laugh in an attempt to lighten the mood.

My gaze however, remained stern and I wasn't even smiling... I was all serious but that slowly changed when he smiled at me... and not as in smirked, even though it did make him look ten times better when he did that, as in a genuine smile, which actually made him look a hundred times better but don't tell him I said that. So I guess, in a way he did kind of lighten up, well, my mood.

"So you're my Guardian..." I managed to get myself to say as I looked at him, "who is actually my cat?"

"I don't know how to put this..." Felix said seeming rather unsure.

He's giving me that again... if he's not going to tell me or he's going to avoid my questions again, I am going to kick him out.

"You know I am this close..." I said as I held out my index finger and my thumb with a tiny space in between them to show him just how close, "to kicking your shirtless ass out of my apartment."

"Don't you mean kissing?" He said somewhat amused.

"Kissing?! No, I am literally this close to pushing you out that door and slamming it in your face."

"Yeah, that's what you say now but we both know that you'll never do that."

"And why won't I do that, exactly?"

"Because you love me and we both know that you fighting with yourself to admit it."

What? Does this guy see right through me or something... is it that obvious?

"That's it, get out!.." I said pointing towards the door, well, it was actually my bedroom door I was pointing at since we were both still standing in the guest bathroom.

"Wait... you want me to wait for you in your bedroom?" Felix said in confusion as he looked at me pointing at my bedroom door, unable to take a hint.

Then a smirk popped up on his face and I knew that he knew what I meant, but Felix was just being Felix and playing dumb.

"You know that's not what I meant..." I said still looking at him and trying to finish my sentence but he beat me to it.

"Then what did you mean?" He asked, playing dumb.

I took a deep breath, my anger was starting to boil... "No, you know exactly what I mean... Now get out!.." I said still pointing towards my bedroom door.

"Get out?.. You mean like get out of the bathroom?" He said with a smirk, still playing dumb.

"No!.. Get out of my apartment!.." I shouted, well, more like whisper shouted... it was like 3:00 am, if I shouted I would surely wake up the neighbours so I had to go with the "whisper shout" tone.

That was it... if he wasn't going to tell me what was going on then there was no point in him being here... even though he did look really good at this moment in time but he doesn't need to know that.

"Get out!.. Get out or..."

"Or what?" He smirked as he mocked me.

"Or I'll push you out the door myself..."

"I'd like to see you try..." he said in amusement as I approached him, "not that you'll get very far."

The nerve of this guy... he pisses me off.

Then the sarcastic voice in my head decided to come back... let me at him... let me wipe that adorable smirk off his face, the voice said.

Adorable?

Ugh... not you too... I said in my head, I'm already fighting with myself not to like this guy... or to show him that I like him because he is one... "cocky" and two... "he knows just how good he looks" and now I have to deal with you... "my cold and sarcastic side" thinking that Felix is "adorable," this is going to be one long year.

Yeah, Felix may not have been a brag... like I said before but he certainly did know that he had looks which of course he didn't have to brag about because I mean, all you need to do is to look at him and you'll ask yourself, based on how perfect he looks, if he was even human at all. And of course we knew the answer to that... he wasn't human... he was my "cat." *Awkward silence*

I slowly walked towards Felix as he waited for me to reach where he was standing, which wasn't that far from me, but I was hesitantly taking small steps towards him since I was unsure of what he was going to do once I reached where he stood.

Once I reached where he was standing with a gulp, might I add.. yeah I was nervous, I'm not going to lie... I placed both my hands on his solid chest in an attempt to push him out of the bathroom doorway, well, a failing attempt to push him out the doorway. Just like his solid chest his whole body was solid... it was like trying to push a really heavy boulder, that was in the shape of a guy, out of the doorway.

He just looked at me and my failed attempt in amusement... "Are you done now?.." He said clearly amused, the smirk never leaving his face.

This guy... he's really getting to me.

"No!.." I replied still trying to push him out of the doorway.

"Well, good luck with that..." He said sarcastically as he looked away, yawning... yeah he was yawning like all my efforts were for nothing. Then he looked back to me and as much or as hard as I pushed him so that he could eventually move... it did not work... he didn't even move an inch... that's how pathetic I was.

Now I regretted all those times I skipped out on PE at school... if I actually participated I just might have been able to move his stubborn ass. Ugh... who am I kidding, even if I did PE there is no way I would be able to move this guy.

"Look as much as I'm enjoying this..."

"This?" I questioned him.

"You know..." he said smirking, "watching you struggle or should I say watching you fail at trying to get me to move. It's really a sight to see... I mean, it's hilarious... a tiny thing like you trying to move me. Really. But I came here for a reason..."

A tiny thing?!..

What does this guy take me for?!..

Tiny thing?

Tiny thing my ass!..

I'm not even that small...

I was still trying to move him after he said that cause I was stubborn and his words "tiny thing" really set me off... I was like a bull... and he was now officially my target. I don't care how pathetic I looked... I was going to make this boy move one way or another when suddenly he caught my wrists.

"Look..." he said, "as fun as this is... I mean, I could do this whole day but I came here to tell you something important and I don't want to see you get hurt, so if you'll please just stop and hear me out." With that his face went from the playful smirk it once held to a face that seemed serious and concerned. His eyes then gazed into mine and it was if I saw something in them spark. I couldn't tell what it was... but in his eyes I saw a mixture of sadness, pain and something that was really unexpected... Love.

Love?

Wait, what do I know about love?..

Felix always joked with me saying that he liked me... I mean, we dated, kissed, not only once but quite a few times and yes, like I said I liked him but I never saw him look at me like that before. He wasn't playing around... what I saw in his eyes was a different look... it wasn't fake.

Did Felix Hunter actually love me?
