I heard silence as I assumed she was to shocked or surprised to speak. I stood up and walked into my bedroom. "I know you told me not to but... I can't stop. Every time I see you I get motivation to make art. To express how I feel inside. I really care about you and I just wanted you to see it."

           I stood waiting for her reaction, for her to say something when she finally said, "Thank you." She turned to me with tears in her eyes. I had hung up and arranged all of my paintings in my room for her to see because I new she would go in my room.

           "I want you to understand... I think you are the most amazing person in the world. Your smart, your gentle, hell you even stayed friends with me. And that is a hard thing to do." We both laughed at that. I walked up to her and she wrapped her arms around my waist.

           "Thank you for showing me this." She moved up onto her toes and kissed me gently on the lips. Her lips felt so soft and unsure against mine. I kissed her back and felt her relax against me.

           "Are you ready for your surprise?" She asked me with a mischievous look on her face.

           I raised an eyebrow at her. "Yes?"

           She bit her lip and grabbed my hand. "Close your eyes"

           I did as she said and she pulled my hand to her and I felt fabric under my hand. I squeezed gently and heard a small moan escape her lips. I opened my eyes. "I did say close your eyes."

           "I don't want to anymore." I lifted her up and carried her to the bed. "You can't stop me once you've already started. I kissed her feverishly on the lips and slid my hand under her shirt. "I love you." I whispered into her ear.
