If it's meant to be....

I fell in love with my neighbor's cousin, who only comes up about 4 times a year. It was something that just happened one day while looking at him, I'll tell you this, he's not the greatest looking guy around. He's a regular teenager with pimples and a body that needs more time to grow and so on. His voice had deepened since the last time I talked to him and it was just...sexy. I'm not that great, I'm chubby and though I don't have pimples and stuff I didn't think he'd ever be interested in me.
I was wrong :) He showed interest in me, we were joking and tickling each other, talking and gaming (he's a nerd ^_^). The next time he came down was for my brother's party and I'd been thinking of him since then. We all ended up watching a scary movie and we got cuddled under the same blanket off to the side. We ended up fooling around under it. When he left the next day he hardly spoke to me, and I was heartbroken. We were friends at the very least I thought he'd shown interest.
I confronted him on msn, and he called me a whore, but then later apologized because he thought I was kidding to. He was really sorry so I forgave him. He came back down about a week ago for three days. Again I was super happy to see him, and couldn't stop thinking of him. He came over everyday and on his last night he slept over. Again we played, tickled, talked, held hands, and we ended up fooling around that night lying beside each other.I kissed him that night, our first kiss since 4 years ago at truth or dare. I couldn't get him out of my head, and the next morning he had to go, so we said goodbye. The next day on msn I confronted him about it again, and ended up telling him I loved him. We talked normally after that, and it wasn't until I had to go to bed that I wrote "Even if you don't...I love you" then signed off. When I signed back on a minute later he had written "I love you too" with a heart.
We've spoken since but he hasn't said anything. If he does love me...and I hope, I hope he does then maybe this will work out. Maybe if it really is meant to be we'll get through this.
