*previously*

"I love you" he barely whispered and I swear I wouldn't have been able to hear but I did . Wow this is not what I was expecting to hear . No . . . no no . . this is not true . It's all a dream . . . Right?

*Now**

Anna's POV . . .

"I've always loved you back in college and now more than ever . I can barely take my eyes off you even for a second . Anna I love you more than you could ever imagine . Want to hear the truth? I've been stalking you since you started working at my Corp and I just couldn't let you know who I was . I'm sorry about that . I just wanted to get to know more about you from a distance but it didn't help . Sure I dated other women but none was like you . I tried to forget you but I just couldn't, neither did I have the courage to tell you how I feel . I've been dying to be with you and just one day, one day that you've stayed in my house, I just can't hold back anymore . Anna I love you with my life and I'll do anything to have you" . His confession hit the roof and I really do want him but I don't know if I love him . Yes, I have feelings for him but love? I've never loved, I only like . Love is a strong word and I don't know if that's what I feel for him . He is cute, charming, loving, hardworking and I don't think I can stay a second without him by my side . The thought of him with other women is making me sick as h.e.l.l . Wait . . . maybe I actually love him . Ugh . . . I don't even know .

"I . . . I . . . uhh . . . "

"It's okay if you don't feel the same way . I am totally cool with that . I just want you know that I love you and I'll always be by your side no matter--"

I cut him off-guard by kissing him . He froze for a second before deepening the kiss . His hands slipped to my waist and I soon find myself straddling his lap . The kiss was ferocious and when we finally pulled apart, we were panting . I rested my forehead on his and we smiled deeply at each other .

------_--------------BEN'S HOUSE----------_--------------

5 days later . .

**Nighttime**

Anna's POV . . .

I was on a video call with Ella and she seemed pleased with the earlier confession . I never thought I'd feel loved . That makes me wonder if he loves me for who I am or he loves me for who I was . If he loves the UGLY Betty Anna or the new s.e.xy Anna? That I don't know . I know I have feelings for him but I don't know what it is . . . infatuation or crush or like like or . . . love . I honestly am confused as h.e.l.l .

"Are you even listening to me?"

"W . . what? Sorry . . you were saying?"

"I knew you weren't listening . You were probably thinking of him . Look Anna, you love him . Do you remember the way you used to blab about him back in college . 'Oh Ben smiled at me today' 'Ben and I wore matching jacket' 'Ben was looking sad today' 'Ben skipped a cla.s.s today' 'Ben this . . . Ben that! And now all you ever think of is Ben . All you've been discussing with me always linked to Ben . Baby girl you love him and I know that . Give him a chance to prove himself to you . I mean who takes a girl to 'his thinking spot' if he doesn't love her . Ann love, follow your heart" . She was right though . Ever since I've been living in Ben's house, all I find myself thinking about is him . He was even in my dreams . It's been five days since he confessed to me and I've been trying hard enough to avoid that topic with him . I don't know what to do .

"Argh . . . I'm so confused Ella . "

"You know what will happen? Follow your heart . Tell him how you really feel about him, okay?"

"I'll think about it"

"You better do . I've got to go, my date's waiting"

"Say hi to him"

"I will . Bye babe"

Maybe she's right . Maybe I love him . I'll think about that tomorrow . I'm too tired to stress my brain .

It seemed like I've been lying on the bed for hours . I just couldn't sleep . "Ugh . . . I need coffee" . I got out of the bed and headed towards the kitchen . The house was dark and quiet . Ms Williams and Ben must be sleeping . So I'm the only one who can't sleep in this house, GREAT . I gulped down the coffee and went back to my room . Just as I was about to open the door, I felt my heart squeezed inside my chest and I started searching for air . Fresh air but there was none . Oh no! my panic attack is coming back . My body started growing numb and I let out a loud scream while clenching onto my chest then blacked out .
