The movie finished but by this point Dua was fast asleep with her head in my lap. I put the hair that was dangling in her face behind her ear, stroking her hair softly. I turned off the TV, gently moving Dua's head so I could get up. Once I had, I picked up Dua and carried her to her room, remembering where she had said it was. I placed her on the bed gently and placed a kiss on her forehead as I tucked her in and went to leave the room but as I did, Dua grabbed my arm.
"Stay" In her tiredness she had asked me to stay, was it the best decision? I had to ask myself. I eventually gave in and nodded. She moved over and I took off my shoes before getting into the bed with her. I wrapped my arm around her and she immediately buried her head in my chest, a soft sigh escaped me as I closed my eyes, drifting off into a deep sleep.
The next morning I woke up before Dua so I slipped out of the bed, grabbing my shoes, kissing her forehead once more before slipping out the bedroom. I walked into the living room and then slipped on my shoes before leaving a note for Dua and heading out the door.. the note read:
"I had a wonderful time last night, you asked me to stay so I did, but now I have to go, I have a few things to do at my house, including shower and brush my teeth. (I have morning breath) Text me or Ring me when you see this. - R xoxo"

After having a shower and brushing my teeth, I settled into my seat, editing the next video for my YouTube channel. My phone went off, it was Dua.

I sighed, the words "I love you" ringing in my mind. It meant more to me than she ever knew, that she'd ever know. I ran my hand through my own hair before publishing the video I had spent an hour editing. I got up from wallowing in my own self pity and decided to take some photos of myself, to boost my self esteem.

baileemadison Could say she takes after her sister 😂
I couldn't help but facepalm at my sisters joke. I was only younger than her by 3 minutes. Almost as if she heard my facepalm through the wall she walked in my room grinning from ear to ear.
"So I couldn't help but notice you didn't come home last night and when you finally did, you were wearing the same clothes you left the house in.. you also left the house with Dua so what happened?" She wiggled her brows at me and I just stared at her, raising an eyebrow. "For one.. I wouldn't discuss my sex life with you and for two.. I didn't do anything with Dua. Unless you count a kiss as doing something, but..." Before I could finish my sentence my sister let out a loud squeal "OMG Yasssss! Was she good kisser? Did you discuss if your an item?" "Calm down! We didn't but she did fall asleep, I carried her to bed and she asked me to stay.. hence why I was in the same clothes as yesterday. I left before she woke up. I would've probably been compelled to kiss her again and I don't know.. wait.. I've never told you I liked girls?" My eyes went wide and I muttered "Shit."
"I already knew, bitch you're my twin you can't hide nothing from me." She laughed. "Excepttttt... the time I hid my YouTube channel from you." She glared at me and we both began to crack up. She was still mad at me for it but she still loved me and wouldn't change me for the world.. that fact I was grateful for.
She walked out the room, shouting "I for one ship it!" As I heard it I began to twinkle, I thought, what if we could actually be a couple? God, the thoughts were torturing me. I distracted myself by putting on a playlist and singing along to it whilst cleaning the mess that was my room. Although, cleaning didn't get the thoughts of Dua out my head. I decided to message her.
rilesmaddy Thinking of you.. 😘
dualipa I'm thinking of you too.. it's just a boring day at the office. 😘
rilesmaddy Are you speaking of a metaphorical office or an actual one? Because either way... 😂
dualipa Metaphorical, luckily. God, is it bad I miss you?
rilesmaddy Yes. But it's bad I miss you too, what time do you get off?
dualipa Not until 9, love.
rilesmaddy Okay, I'll pick you up.. see you at 9 😘💞
dualipa Can't wait! 😊😘💞

I put my phone down, smiling to myself. I checked the time, it was 6pm.. I had 3hrs to plan a date.. or what I hoped was a date. I began to ring the nearest restaurants but none had tables available. I sighed softly thinking to myself. That's when I got the idea.. picnic in the place that was close to my heart. I rushed around getting the supplies ready for the picnic.
3hrs later
I was on my way to the address Dua had sent me, the nervousness I had felt when I first met Dua came rushing back to me. I really adored this woman and didn't want to screw it up. As I pulled up to the location, Dua was stood outside, her brows raised in shock as she saw me pulling up. I went to get out the car but she shook her head and opened the door, she sat down inside and closed the door.
"You look... wow" She muttered nervously, I'd never seen Dua as nervous as she was this very moment. "I could say the same about you, gorgeous." I, myself was surprised of how easily these words came out. She slipped her hand in mine before switching on the radio, she chuckled as she saw her CD just next to the radio. I noticed too and quickly grabbed it, shoving it into the glove compartment. "I... um..." She let out a snort as she saw my cheeks begin to flush. "I knew you were my fan but I didn't think you had my CD! I bet in your room you have my poster too and kiss it whenever you think of me." She teased me and I scowled, hiding my face. "Dooooonnnnn't" She gave my hand a squeeze and sighed happily. "Alright, so where we going?" "You'll see.." I replied eagerly as I drove off.
