[Fact #5: My friends think I’m weird. But I am! And so I shall be :P]

Kara’s POV

Kirk?! Of all people, why on Earth would Kirk be looking for me? It’s not even like I’ve missed him; he was my least favourite people when I was in school. So why is he looking for me?

“Hi, Kirk,” I said.

“Hello, Kara,” he said. “Have you chosen a college or university yet?”

So now he’s trying to attempt making conversation like a normal human being instead of making a move? This is going to be a very interesting conversation.

“Yes. I’ve applied to Cambridge but I don’t think I’ll be accepted.”

“I wouldn’t say that.”

He brought out an official looking envelope – a manila envelope – with my name printed on it in black, bold block letters. And the envelope was from…  Cambridge! I unceremoniously snatched the envelope from him.

“What are you doing with this?”

“I don’t think you remember; my father sort of works at Cambridge, and so he mailed this to me to give to you.”

“Thank you.”

I ripped open the envelope, and unfolded the white sheet of paper. The first words I saw were, “We are pleased to inform you…”  I nearly cried. I got accepted into Cambridge! This was epic!

“Oh my God, I got accepted into Cambridge!” I yelled. Then, I hugged him for a brief moment before letting go.

“What was that for?” he asked.

“For bringing me good news!”

“You’re welcome.” He smiled. “And guess who also got accepted?”

I played dumb. “Uh, Britney Spears?”

“No silly.” He rolled his eyes. “I am. Um, can we put away all our bad years and start over as friends?”

I pretended to think about it. “Alright, I’ll be your friend.”

He looked happy; happier than a normal human being should have looked. I wondered if there was an ulterior motive to his thoughts, but I let it slide.

“Anyway, I heard that Liam is back in town?”

Aha. Ulterior motive spotted. “Yeah, he just got in. Why?”

“Just wanted to know if I could stop by and say hello to him.”

Wait a minute. How does he know Liam stays with me now?

“He tweeted it,” Kirk said in response to my unspoken thoughts. Had I said them aloud?

“Yeah, you did,” he said again. Damn gotta stop that. “Anyway, Kara, I’ve been meaning to say something.”

“What?”

“I love you.”

[This was short. Don't hate meh! I'm sorry! -T xxx]
