It's All About You

Story Three - Romance

Written by MrsSlowDeath

I felt so uncomfortable being there. Everyone was looking at me when I walked in and some of them began to laugh. My best friend's boyfriend smiled and waved at me. Was he being serious? Not long after a few people began to laugh a little at us. I was sure as hell that some of them knew about it.

After all, it wasn’t that bad at all. No one was asking me something and they all were in a conversation about random things and their school. I was the only one in a different school so it wasn’t that hard to be the outsider. Sometimes I listened to what they said but I didn’t care at all. Until this guy began to smile at me more often. His eyes met mine a few times and I was feeling so weird.

I didn’t like people flirty with me if I didn’t know them at all. My best friend's boyfriend was there and I kind of liked him. But the guy kept trying to get my attention by doing stupid things and I thought a was a complete loser. Maybe other people began to see that there was something between us because they left us alone for a moment. I sat there not knowing what to do at all. Should I say something? Should I look at him? Maybe ask his name again because I already forgot about it? I looked up and saw he was already looking at me. I tried to say something, tried to look away but it was too hard. I kept looking at him, until all the others came back.

Even when we were completely fine with each other at the birthday party of my best friend, we still got into a fight and began to say mean things to each other. We showed others that we hated each other. Right now I don’t know if I ever did. But it went on like that for a few months. At the beginning I only talked to him when I was with my best friend and she was chatting with him. It happened that she totally got into the idea to have a video conversation. That were the moments I wished she would calm down a little and not get herself too much into it.

But after a while we added each other on Facebook where we started to talk even more. And yes, it were still fights but we got to know each other. Which made us friends. Around the time we started to talk more in private, so on Facebook, I also saw him. I mean I ran into him and again my eyes found his. Looking away was not the first thing to do because his eyes totally had mine. He was so sweet towards me and just smiled at me. My best friend grabbed my arm and I needed to go.

After I saw him for the second time we totally were friends. Months passed by and we were talking as much as we could. Getting to know each other more and more. Back then I got into a hard period of my life and I was done as hell. But he was there to hold me up and see I was okay. He was the only one who made me smile and I fell in love with him, a year after I met him.

We were together for only three days and it barely meant anything. He let go of me because of another girl. I felt horrible and got mad at him for hurting me. Since my life was a complete disaster I needed him in my life but the way he was treating me wasn’t the way I wanted him to be in my life at all. I made a hard decision to let go of him too and live my life. Moving on would be much better.

A half year past by and I forgot him in some way. Sometimes things come back to you if they weren’t finished before. So he came back to me with excuses telling me he was sorry and stuff like that. I forgave him but said I only wanted to talk to him. Even being friends would make it hard for me since I was still hurt inside.

We were fine talking and laughing. It wasn’t on a daily base and yes we didn’t tell each other our deepest secrets but we were getting somewhere. Until the moment where we stopped talking for a while. The moment I didn’t know what was going on or what would happen next. Since I was doing other things and being in a new relationship I forgot about him too. We didn’t talk and maybe we never should again.

Like I said before things come back and again he did, again with excuses but this time also sweet words. “I shouldn’t have let you go.” One of my favourite sentences ever. He did and I began to think a little more about what had happened. We ended up to be strangers when somehow he always made me crazy.
