Leo's POV:

I and Anya have been dating for like two weeks now and honestly, this is the longest relationship I've ever had with any girl, the longest 'fake' relationship anyways, actually my first fake relationship but you get what I mean.

I've really started to grow true feelings for her, I don't really know if it's love because I've really never loved before but all I know is that I feel different around her because we are kinda the same so around her, I get to be myself. That's love right?

Anyways, I've been looking for a time and place to tell her what I feel for her, I'm only worried because, I don't think she feels the same, after all we started with fake dating. I don't know if she'll like to stop this fake dating thing and then make this thing real.

I asked her out on a surprise date with me telling her it will help to 'boost up' our fake dating skills and she agreed. I'm going to take her to the park for a romantic picnic and there, I will confess my feelings to her.

Moments later, I had already gone to Anya's house and I took her to Devalle's park where I already prepared the most romantic picnic spot for us
"Wow, Leo, nice picnic spot" she said with a mouth full of fries
"Manners Anya" I said earning an eye roll from her
"Now look you have ketchup all over your nose" I said to her giggling "how did it even get there?" I said again between chuckles using a napkin to clean the red stains from her nose and she just stays there staring at me

"You know, a picture would last longer?" I said to her and she stopped as shook her as though I stopped her train of thoughts
"Sorry" she finally said and then there was more silence with her chewing on her fries and me on my burgers

"Hey, Anya, tell me something you've never told anyone" I said as casual as possible trying to lighten the mood
"If there's something I haven't told anyone, what makes you think I'll tell you" she said smirking
"Ouch, was just tryna lighten up the mood" I said touching my chest like I was in actual pains
"O, I see, well then, my middle name is Penny" she said shyly
"Penny?, so your name is Anya Penny Dewills?" I asked laughing
"Stop laughing Leo, Penny isn't such a bad name" she said throwing her fries at me and I continued laughing
"OK, sorry princess" I said finally, cleaning a tear drop from my eyes
"Now it's your turn, tell me something that you haven't ever told anyone" Anya said obviously frustrated at my laughing at her. Probably preparing herself to laugh at me in return
"I love you" I said casually
"Fool, I mean a secret, no ones here, so tell me something true"
"It's true Anya, I love you and I've never ever told anyone about it" I said again relieved to finally let it of my chest
"Leo...., Leo I hope your not trying to get an effect on me again" she said shaking obviously taken aback
"No Anya, I'm not trying to get an effect on you, I really do love you and I always have but I never realized it. I'm not even in love with you Anya, I'm obsessed with you and if you say you don't love me back then I'll probably die of depression. I don't want us to continue this fake dating thing Anya, I want to date you but for real this time, I want to hug you and cuddle you and kiss you with emotions and not because people are watching, Anya I......" I couldn't finish my sentence because next thing, her lips were crashed on mine, this time it was a deep, real, emotional kiss. It was better than all the others, it was better than even the first. We were there for minutes but then we had to pull back for air, we pulled away slowly and breathed out heavily, she finally managed to say
"I love you too Leo, I was only scared you, probably won't feel the same that's why I've been quiet all this time. I promise never to play you like the other boys, don't play me Leo"
"I won't ever" I say looking into her eyes then finally pulling her into a hug.

Hectic right?, I mean it took them 17 chapters to admit their love for each other but is it the end of the story?
