Chapter 5

"Are you going to get Alex anything?"
"For what?" I asked even though I knew what Sean was talking about.
"Valentine's Day," Sean said giving me a side look.
"Why should I?" I retorted. What was up with the interrogation?
"Oh I don't know.... Maybe because she's your best friend. That you love more than a friend." Sean said laughing at the last part. I gave him a good shove so that he fell off the bench we were sitting on.
"Hey! It's true," Sean scoffed.
"Why did I tell you that?" I asked with a groan.
"Because at the moment I'm your only friend and you'd go insane without me," Sean said smugly.
"You're asking to be hit, harder this time. Like no teeth hard." I said grinding my teeth. I haven't talked to Alex since that day she called; nearly three weeks. February was here along with all of the Valentine's Day crap. What was I going to do?
***********************************

In the end I ended buying something for Alex. A bear and a pair of concert tickets that she had been wanting. If I was going to make up her birthday to her I would have to do it grandly.

It's the Friday before Valentine's Day and I'm nervous. I know with giving Alex her gift I'm going to tell her about my feelings for her. I couldn't keep giving her the back and forth.  Time to own up.

  I decide to text her.

Me: hey you busy tomorrow?
*read at 5:00pm*
Me: lex answer please
Me: ?
*read at 5:20*
Me: damnit Alex. Talk to me!
*read at 5:30*
Alex: you ignore me for three weeks and think you fix things through text?!
Me: I'm not trying to fix things through text! I'm trying to make plans through text so that we could talk!
Alex: tomorrow huh? Did you even look at a calendar?
Me: yes I did. I want to talk to you tomorrow
Alex: and if I'm busy tomorrow?
Me: that's b.s
Alex: I'm done talking.
Me: Alex come on I'm sorry ok?
*read at 6:00*
I start to get nervous as the clock hits six o clock. It seems like all we've been doing is fighting. I hate it.
Me: lex?
*read at 6:30*
I start pacing around, desperately trying not to throw my phone. My mind races with ways to fix this mess I've made. From the utterly crazy to the desperate.
Me: be mine?

*read at 7:15*
Alex: what?
Me: be mine??
Alex: your an idiot if you think that's going to work.
Me: please give me tomorrow
*read at 7:30*
Alex: fine. Be at my house by 6

I breathe a sigh of relief and sink into my bed. At least I get to see her tomorrow. I just really hope I don't screw up.
