Chapter 7: Yes

ALICE POV

Later in the day he had already sent six messages asking me for my response or wondering if I'm done thinking, in which I've answered none. He tried calling me, I didn't pick. I finally put my phone on silent after the teacher warned and promised me it will be seized. When I got home and I unlocked my phone to see thirty-six missed calls. Obviously, thirty-two was from Elliot while one was from my mom and the other two from Victoria. I call my mom.

" Hey Mom"

" Hey darling, hope you are home?, I actually called you earlier to tell you, I and your dad will be away for a week so we expect our baby to be of good behavior okay??"

"Yes mum, sorry my phone was on silent"

"Ok hun, bye, love you"

"Love you too mom"

I call Victoria and tell her everything that went on in the library and she urged me to say yes.

I finally found the courage to call him.

"Hey, I saw your call but my phone was emm.. on silent and I ummm... saw your messages also"

"Hey alice, emm ok, so what do you say,"

"Say about what (even though I know I just wanted to hear it from him)"

"You said you saw the messages didn't you??"

" Oh that, emm I ummm" he quickly cut me off

" It's fine, it's like that, you can't force yourself even if your my mate but everything or ummm the ball is in your court"

"Elliot, emm I was just being silly, I haven't done this before but I'm willing to give it a try so umm, yes I will"

" Are you fucking serious?"

"Yeah I am"

" Ok thank you so so so much, Alice thanks, I love you"

I'm blushing " thanks also i-i I love you too"

"You do??"

"Yes umm I gotta go shower so we can talk later bye"

" Ok then, bye love you"

"Ok love you too"

The calls over and I feel like a new creature, God I can't explain right now. I move to shower and go straight to bed.

ELLIOT POV

I've called her severally and sent various texts but she hasn't even replied one. She seems to be dodging me and I'm feeling sad. Later at night, I was glad when my phone rang and the caller ID read Alice. I quickly picked up the call. We talked and she said yes. Like she freaking fucking said yes to me. I didn't even notice when I blurted out I love you, surprisingly she replied before she told me she had to shower so I had to say bye and told her I loved her she replied and hung up then the line went dead. I lay on my bed feeling like the happiest man more like boy or even a guy on Earth. Goddddd. She'll be the death of me.
