Chapter 57

I woke up to the sound of laughter outside my window, feeling a sense of warmth and happiness that I hadn't felt in a long time as I remembered the kiss Leo and I shared last night.. As I sat up in bed and rubbed the sleep from my eyes, I realized that I had just had a romantic dream about Leo.
In the dream, Leo and I were walking on a beautiful beach, hand in hand. The sun was setting, it’s reflection showed over the waves. Leo turned to me and smiled, his eyes shining with love and adoration. He took my face in his hands and kissed me, and I felt a rush of emotions that left me breathless.
As I lay in bed, my fingers on my lips, reliving the dream, I realized that my feelings for Leo went far beyond friendship. I was falling for him, hard.
