I Was So Bitter, Till You Came Along

The months seemed to tick by slower than ever. Maybe it was because I was expecting Andy to show up any day now, because I wasn't sure what their last tour date was. Maybe it was because I was excited to see him. I think maybe it was both.

My mom came into my room one evening when I was scrolling through Twitter on my laptop. She had a look of concern on her face.

"Are you moving out?" She asked, resting a hand on her hip. I glanced up at her and slowly shut the laptop with a sigh.

"Well... since Andy and I are back together, I think I might be.. why?" I asked. She shrugged, and then she opened her mouth to speak.

"No real reason... I just wanted to know," she said. I nodded and gave her a small smile.

"Can I tell you something?" I asked of her after a moment's pause. She nodded.

"When I moved here... even before that... I had never kissed a guy. I never even had a boyfriend. I didn't want one, and I didn't want to get married or have kids. I was planning for college and I was saving up for a scholarship. But now... after having experienced everything I've gone through.. I feel different. You know?" I asked, feeling like what I was telling her didn't really have a point. She thought for a minute.

"Do you think you'd ever see yourself getting married?" My mom asked.

"To Andy... no one else," I replied. She nodded. There was a small smile etched onto her lips.

"What are you thinking?" She asked me.

"Well... I know that Andy and I haven't been together very long, but I think he's the one for me. I love him - no - I'm in love with him," I said, feeling the butterflies dance within my belly. I smiled to myself.

"You mean that?" Andy's deep voice startled me and he stepped into the room with a great smile. Was he here the whole time?

"Andy!" I exclaimed excitedly, and I pushed myself off of my bed and into his arms. He hugged me tight and kissed me gently before letting me loose. I grinned up at him.

"Of course I mean it," I said. He chuckled and kissed my forehead.

I was definitely in love with him, no doubt about it.
