Accidentally in Love

There were some complications involved in Chris and I getting together. I was engaged at the time and he was living with his girlfriend. These problems didn't seem like problems at the time since we had just planned on being friends. We hung out a lot, going to clubs, going out to movies, talking etc... and before you know it I kissed him. Here's where things get complicated. I knew that I couldn't, in good conscience, stay with the guy I was with at the time, so I ended it. I went home to New Jersey for the summer hoping that time apart would help with my confusion. I had convinced myself that I didn't have feelings for Chris, he was just a friend. It wasn't until I was in Virginia and was gushing about him to my cousin and she replied "Girl, you are so in love with him." I replied with my usual "No way! He's my friend, that's just weird." but deep inside I knew what she had said was true. I was in love with him, and I had to tell him and hope he felt the same way.
