Jen's entry

I sit on my bed, mascara running down my face. Why did I have to be so mean to him? I really don't know what to think, I mean, it's just all too sudden. I didn't realise he liked me in that way.

It was just then, thinking about what had just happened, that I realised that maybe I do like Josh, I just can't face the truth. His eyes are so beautiful and he's got the nicest personality, and I'm sure he didn't mean what he said in a bad way. I decide to text him: "come to my house x" About 20 minutes later, I hear his car pull up. I take a deep breath.

"Come in" I say. I think he's seen that I've been crying, he doesn't look particularly happy either. "Look Josh, I've realised that I really actually do kinda like you, I think I just went a bit crazy because I couldn't believe it and obviously with everything going on.
"It's okay, I get it. I really don't mind, as long as I know now that you do like me in that way." When he finally lifts his head, I can see that he has been crying too. I fall into his arms, and give him a hug and bury my head into his neck. "I'm sorry." I whisper. "No, Jen, I'm sorry. I didn't mean for this to make things awkward between us. I didn't want it to ruin our friendship." He whispers. I whisper even quieter this time, "I love you."

Josh's entry

I drive home from Jen's. I go upstairs, shower, then go it bed. So many thoughts fly through my head, like beautiful birds. I can't believe she actually likes me. I thought I made a real fool of myself but I didn't. I love her so much. Jen's coming over for dinner tomorrow night after filming, we just need to talk things over. We aren't dating yet but I would like to. However, I don't want to rush things and make her feel uncomfortable.

My phone beeps and lights up the darkness. It's Jen. A rush of happiness pumps through my body. It says, "Hi Josh. I don't really want to take things too far, too fast. For now, I hope we can forget about it, I hope you can understand that. We'll talk more about it tomorrow.x" "Okay, of course x"

That's the thing though, I don't want to forget.
