Chapter 1 - Early Morning Confessions

~Bens POV~
I sigh, and move some of my dirty blonde hair out of my face. I grab my small, brown leather diary. I grab my pen and write in it.
'(Y/n). Beautiful, beautiful, (Y/n). *sigh* why do we have to just be friends. Why can't she be mine already? God, I want her~ She's so damn stunning. Even when she's covered in walker guts and blood, she still looks stunning. I want to tell her how I feel. I want to; but I'm just so nervous. I have to do it though. I'm gonna do it right now. I know she won't mind, we've talked at 5 A.M. before.'

I set down my pen and close up my diary. I tidy myself up and try to make myself look as nice as possible. I exit my room and quietly make my way to her door.
'You got this.' I think to myself as I gently raise my hand to tap on her door

~Your POV~
I grogily wake up in the uncomfortable and lumpy motel bed. I look at the little alarm that was sitting on my bedside table. It was almost 5:30 A.M. I sigh out of relief and lay back down, knowing that I still had a couple hours left of sleep. Before I lay back down and allow myself to fall back into a deep slumber, i reach into my (Favourite colour/band/tv show/pattern) backpack and grab a cereal bar and a water bottle. 'Nothing better than an early morning snack' I think to myself with a grin. I open up my water, and go to take a sip when I hear a light tapping sound on my door.
"(Y-y/n)..?" I hear ben, my best friend and crush, calling out my name. I quietly get up and open the door with a sleepy smile on my face.
"Oh, hey ben! You need anything?" I ask him in my usual cheery tone.
"(Y/n), I know, it's early in the morning but..I need to get something off of my mind."
"Of course ben! C'mon in!" I say as I open my door for him. I go and sit on my bed and motion for him to sit down. He does so and lets out a sigh
"So, what's on your mind? Anything stressing you? Some cunt giving you a hard time?"
He sighs. "Actually, it's none of that. I came to talk to you because, well, I...couldn't stop thinking of you. I've been thinking about you for..well..awhile now. It's just that you're so perfect, and beautiful, and amazing, and wonderful and I- I just- I love you!" he nervously confesses as he looks down"
"Ben..I..I love you too"
He looks up at me in shock and surprise.
"R-really!?"
"Ben, would I lie to you?"
"Well..No"
"Exactly" I giggle.
"So are we...official..?" I hear him nervously ask.
"Of course we are, (insert cute nickname here)" I say as I kiss his now scarlett red cheek. He gently kisses my forehead and gets up.
"I'm guessing you're gonna want some sleep now, lovely. I'll see you tomorrow. I-I love you~" he tells me as he makes his way to the door.
"Ben, wait!"
"Of course lovely. Do you need anything? Food? Water? Another pillow/blanket?"
"Actually, I'm admittedly kinda cold and I was wondering if you'd like to stay with me and...cuddle and fall asleep together" I say with a bright red blush on my cheeks.
"Of course! That sounds great~" Ben says as he makes his way over to the bed. He gets in and wraps his cold and skinny arms around me. He gently pulls me towards his warm body and I blush and smile.
"I love you" ben softly whispers into my ear.
"i love you too, cutie" I respond sleepily. I close my tired eyes and fall asleep in the loving and warm embrace of Ben
