Catching Feelings

It hits you, like a high speed train or bus. Sometimes you don't want to, but you do. But in my case, I didn't know if I wanted to or not. He was my little sisters best friends brother, and boy was I smitten.. But did he like me back? And did everyone pushing him to like me, just make him hate me even more? That's what I have to find out. I mean Gio is the cutest boy ever, his smile, his eyes, his long eyelashes, and he's so sweet and nice, and funny, and quirky. But, I couldn't help but think, what did he think of me? My sister Taylor's birthday was yesterday, and her friend came over with her brothers, including Gio, and my cousin, who was really good friends with my sisters friend's brother. And my cousin, being the pushy one that he is, kept pushing us together. He grabbed both of us around the shoulders and pushed us together; then Gio's brother kept asking me while I was standing over near him and not with Gio.. And I mean, I didn't wanna seem obvious and like a clingy person, who wants that? And once my cousin grabbed our hands and tried putting them together, I knew that once Gio pulled away, he didn't feel the same as I did. I thought that the fact that he asked me out to the movies to watch Oculus with him and his family meant that he did think I was cute and he was possibly interested in me or getting to know me better, and that he paid for my cookie dough bites and water, and that we had our own row, meant that he was, somehow, interested in me. I guess I was wrong. But when Gio's stepmom asked me what I thought about Gio and if I liked him or not, and I blushed and said I did, did I really? Or was it just the fact of having a boy that was nice to me, and asked me to go to the movies with him and his family, and that was cute, and paying attention to me, just give me the delusion that he liked me? And if it did, what was my head putting me through.
