Define love. || Young Leonardo Dicaprio

Chapter 28

"Soooo" he finally spoke

"Yeh?" I said startled of his voice

"Do you really have feelings for me?" He said softly with a hint of worry in his voice

"Well I mean-"

"Because I really do mean what I said Kenna I do really like you, and just not as friends...I think it's more than that. I just can't explain what it is" he rambled as I just nodded my head. Both of us just looking at each other. I gave him a small smile as he licked his lip anxiously. I put my hand on his cheek

"I can't explain it too Leo, but yes I do feel the same for you"

"So what do we do" I furrowed my brow as I thought. I never actually think that far. We kissed, we confessed our feelings now what? Did I want to get into a relationship with him? Despite all of the whirlwind of feelings i had for him I couldn't forget what's he's put me through. I guess I was just scared id get hurt.

"Kenna" he said snapping me back to reality. My head started spinning

"I think I'm gonna be sick" I got up and ran to the ensuite, hugging the bowl while I was sick. Leo crouched next to me as he rubbed my back and held my hair. I sat back leaning against the bathtub

"I feel dizzy, but I need to wash the hairspray out of my hair... but I don't think I can right now" Leo got up and started running the bath. Getting the bubbles in and everything

"What are you doing?" I questioned

"Have a bath, then get some rest" he smiled down at me. I kinda froze at the idea. Was he expecting me to bath with him?

"Just you I'll wait out there" he answered my thoughts. He got me up and walked out and shut the door. After an hour of sitting in the bath and drowning in my thoughts I hopped out. Putting my pjs on then drying my hair with my towel. I felt 100% better after that bath.

To be honest I expected Leo to be in his room. I saw my slide door wide open and a figure smoking a cigarette out on the balcony. I smiled to myself deciding to join him. I grabbed my blanket

"So what brings this fine gentleman this early morn" I say causing him to laugh. I sat next to him on the bench that was against the wall. I placed the blanket over our shoulders, him just pulling me into him as he had his arm around me.

"You feeling better?"

"Yep thanks to you mr DiCaprio" he smiled shyly. Seeing him this vulnerable around me was new.... I like it. We watched as the sun started to set and the birds started to fill the sky

"What time is it?" I wondered. He brought his watch up

"5:30"

"Looks like we're not getting any sleep, we have to be at the pool scene rehearsal at 8"

"I forgot about that" he turned his head. First with a thoughtful expression but then he gave me a small smile. It made my heart flutter. This boy was the only one that made me feel like this. I've got to at least give us a shot

"Leo" I said as I got lost in his eyes

"I think...I think I want to see how this goes"

"What do you mean" he scrunched his eyebrows and looked at the horizon

"You asked me what to do now, earlier right?" His attention immediately returned to me, his eyes again dilating and he kept licking his lips as he waited for me to continue

"I want to see how this goes, you know us... I don't want us to rush into things, giving ourselves a label you know, we'll just play it out see where it takes us"
