I go to take a shower and then go to sleep. I wake up to the sound of my ringtone. "Morning" North says when I click accept. "Morning" I say groggy from sleep. "Come on, I'm waiting outside," North says. That comment wakes me up. "What? Outside where?" I say getting up. "Outside your house" North says. I scramble out of bed and rush to get dressed and get everything I need for school. "Why are you outside my house right now?" I ask. "Because I thought it would be nice if I drove for a change," North says. I look out my window and see North's car. "North you know how I told you that my parents are EXTREMELY un supportive?" I ask stuffing a textbook in my backpack. "Yeah" North says.
"Well they have to meet your parents and a bunch of crap before they trust you even as a friend and I doubt that we could even act like friends or trick your parents into saying so" I say worriedly. "Oh I'm sorry I didn't mean to put you in a tough spot" North says. "It's ok. I'll see you at school" I say. "Yeah see you at school" I say. I rush and finally get everything I need and I run down my stairs and dash into the kitchen and grab my keys. Before my parents could question anything I'm out the door and in my car. I look back and watch as North backs out of our driveway and then I put the keys in and back out of the driveway. Once I'm on the road I pull out the love letter that I spent all night writing. It's a full long page. Full of love. I have the person's name signed at the bottom. I don't know why I brought it other than to make sure that my parents can't find it.
I don't think about it too much before I'm at school. I meet North in the parking lot and we walk to my locker. "Hey sorry about that" North says. "It's fine, your heart was in the right place" I say, putting my books in my locker. The love letter falls out by accident. Before I knew what happened North had picked it up. On the outside it says "My love". North starts to read it out loud smiling at me
"Dear my love no this isn't going to be a poem I'm sorry if you were hoping for one, but it's still written with love. When I think of you I get butterflies, worms, and some kind of animal I don't think anyone has identified yet in my stomach. You make me feel safe when I look in your eyes. Your touch is all I want to feel. When I'm not around you it's awful. I can't stop thinking about you. Even when I shouldn't, I do. I'm sorry that my parents will never know how wonderful you truly are. You're the love I feel with everything else feels dark. Thank you for being the wonderful, amazing, beautiful self that you are because I wouldn't want one thing about you to change. Love Iris. To : FENIX! North yells at me.
