(Dedicated to my girl Zizi because we had a great convo last night. Mucho love Zizi!!)

Sean's POV:

     Alex and I talked for a few hours, and then she fell asleep in my arms. She talked about what she wanted to do when she was older, how she didn't want our- I mean her future kids living the life she did. Like without parents and just giving up. I eventually fell asleep too because I woke up to see Alex's head in my lap and my hand in hers. She looked so peaceful. I smiled at her, and admired her. I stroked her beautiful brown hair and imagined how lucky I would be if she was mine. I want her to be mine. I wish she would be mine.

     I smiled at her, and admired her. I stroked her beautiful brown hair and imagined how lucky I would be if she was mine. I want her to be mine. I wish she would be mine. I noticed how her room was clean. Alex's room had one wall that had a bunch of pictures on it. It was painted a light gray color, a bed in the center that had a black headboard with white sheets and a black blanket. She had fairy lights around the headboard and a bay window with a bunch of pillows. She also had a black desk that had her stuff on it. 

"What the heck? I fell asleep?" She asks in her sleepy voice. "Sorry if you felt uncomfortable."

"I was fine. And you looked so adorable." I pinched her cheeks. She gave a little blush but gave me a little death look. 

"I need to get out of this house." Alex complains. 

"I'll take you out to get ice cream." I tell her, hinting it to be a date. 

"As in a date?" She asks. 

"Why not?" I shrug. 

"Then let me get ready. So shoo shoo!" She grabs my hand and pushes me out of her room. I go downstairs and sit on the couch. 

Alex's POV:

      Sean and I are going to get ice cream!! Yay. I honestly feel so bipolar right now. One minute I'm crying, the next minute I'm going with Sean to get ice cream. I throw on a Victoria Secret maroon and white sweater with black leggings and white converse. I fix my face a little bit and put a little deep part in my hair. 

"Okie lez go!" I walk down the stairs with my phone and my small black crossbody bag. 

"Wow, you look cute." Sean compliments me and winks.

"You're such a flirt Sean." I give him a little push. Deep down, he's so cute. "Just so you know Sean, I'm not cute. You're cute." 

"I'm hot, thank you very much." This kid man. He opens the door for me and we walk out. As we're walking, I feel Sean's fingers tap mine and twines them with mine. We both look down and then at each other. We just smile. 

"I hope you don't mind. Your hand seemed to heavy so I decided to hold it for you." Sean smirks at me. (HIS SMIRK!! DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED ON IT!)

"You're so cheesy Sean." I roll my eyes. We reach Ben and Jerry's and Sean opens the door for me. Sean pays for it, even though I insisted. We sit down outside and just talk like normal best friends would. 

"Sean, is there something you've been meaning to tell me?" I know he likes me already. I just wanna hear it from him. 

"Well Alex, I don't know how to say it but, I fell in love with you ever since sixth grade. I admire you so much and I honestly don't know what I would do without you." He explains. Awh, he is so sweet. 

"Really?" I feel so flattered. "I feel the same way because you've always been there for me and you're an amazing person. Your looks are just a bonus." I blush, but laugh. 

     After ice cream, Sean and I go to this little creek where there was a cute little bridge and you can see the whole city from up there. It was truly beautiful. I wish I could live here though. Like imagine the sunsetting and the sun rising. 

"Wow, this is so pretty." I sigh and smile. "How'd you know I love sunsets and city lights?"

"Isn't it obvious? Your room has so many picture of sunsets, sun rises, and city lights." He wraps his arm around me. 

Sean's POV:

"Okay, I have one surprise for you. But close your eyes." I cover her eyes and walk her over to this place. Kenneth and Gabe helped me out with it. It was under a huge tree that had a bunch of white lights hanging over it. There is a little ladder to climb up the tree and sit on it.

"Can I open now?" Alex tries moving her hand away. She covers her mouth. "Sean.. How did you do this? It's so pretty." 

"Alex, we've known each other for so long and it's been on my mind lately. But will you be my girlfriend?" I hope she says yes.

"Well duh!!" She jumps into my arms and hugs me. Finally she's mine!! I am so happy. December 16, 2016 is the day Alexandra Mae Daniels became mine. 

"Here I got this for you." I give her this rope bracelet that has her name in silver cursive letters. But it says Alexandra instead of Alex.  And a dance charm hangs from it. 

"Sean, don't you have the same one?" She asks me. I nod. "Here, you take mine and I'll take yours. Deal?" 

"Deal." I put on the bracelet on my left hand and she puts the bracelet on her right hand. "Now people know I belong to you, and you belong to me." 

     I hug her and she feels happy. I can finally call her my girlfriend instead of my best friend. We climb up to the top of the tree and watch the sunset. I feel so happy right now honestly. 

"Alex, I just wanna say that I'm happy you're my girlfriend." I play with my fingers.

"You're such an idiot. But, I'm happy you're my boyfriend." She grabs my hand and locks it with mine. She took out her phone and changed her Instagram bio. It had went, 12/16/16 🔐❤️ | Dancer | Singer | Actor | Cook |

     I decided to change mine too. It was the same thing as Alex's. I try to find a picture of us and it's one of where she isn't looking at the camera and I am. It's like one of those "in-the-moment" pictures. We're both laughing and our arms are around each other. I post it and caption it, 12/16/16 ❤️

"I have this picture!!" Alex exclaims as she sees my post. Well of course she has it. 

"It's my favorite." It really is my favorite picture. We watch the sun go down and pay attention to the city lights. 

"Wow, this is truly beautiful." She rests her head on my shoulder and sighs. 

"It really is." I rest my head on top of hers. 

"Sean, I just wanna say.. I'm sorry for being such a bipolar freak. Like one minute I'm crying the next minute I'm here with you. Like I seriously feel like I can get annoying. I'm such a hot mess." Alex rambles.

"You're my hot mess." I squish her cheeks and we both laugh. I look at the time on my watch, 8:30. We climb down the tree and I walk her home with our hands together. I walk her up to her doorstep and we look at each other. 

"I just wanna say, thanks for always being there for me Sean. I can be such an annoying girl but I am a teenage girl after all." She so sentimental. 

"I'll always be there for you my cupcake." I pull her into a hug. 

"Cupcake?" She asks. 

"You remind me of a cupcake." She gives me a weird look. 

"You're such an idiot." Alex tells me, but lovingly means it. "But you're my idiot." 

I'm still kinda upset, but I still had courage to write chapter 5. Dang, Alex is sooooo lucky. I wish I was her. Haha.
