Let Me Love You

•15•

I sit on a chair in his room and he groans again.

"I'll tell you in the morning" he says and I shake my head.

"Now"

"Okay... Like I said,I met her three months ago.. my friends and I made a bet. We bet some bucks,and if I couldn't get her to fall for me,I was gonna pay double.. I didn't have a problem with that. Heck,I wanted to pay triple because I didn't feel any attraction towards her. After she fell for me,I was supposed to break her heart. I mean literally break it. Tell her I never had any feelings for her and just leave her to sob," he narrates. "I was given a time range of one month"

I nod as I listen to him.

"A month was complete,and it was time to tell her. I was supposed to take her somewhere private to tell her. I couldn't get the words out of my mouth,it took me so long to tell her. I think I got attached," he runs his hand through his hair. "And when I finally got the courage to say it,she kissed me. Damn,it was hot. I explained to her,she was first mad at me,but I apologized. She didn't speak to me for about a week. I could tell she was hurt" he stops to sigh.

"Her actions were justified, I played with her feelings. I confessed how I felt about her two weeks later. We started going on dates,had fun,fought,got drunk,yelled at one another and other stuff" he says and I laugh

"So you love her?" I ask him

"I do," he grins. "If I knew love would be this nice,then I would have fallen in love earlier"

"I'm happy for you," I say. "But you have to be committed"

"I know," he sighs. "I'll try.... This whole thing is new to me. It's like I don't see other girls anymore"

"So," she chuckles. "When's our next date?" She asks as we walk to my car.

"Tomorrow,Ruby," I smile. "I'll take you out for as long as you wish"

"Let's make it Saturday. I don't wanna seem too demanding"

"You are not demanding,babe," I peck her cheek. "I love you"

"Do I have to say it back?" She asks as I loosely hold her hand.

"Yes,you do... To reassure me"

"Well,I love you too," she chuckles. "Now,when am I meeting your parents?" She pouts.

"Whenever you want," I shrug. "Let's make our date on Saturday at my house"

"Deal"

"Look pretty" I tease.

"I am pretty" she protests.

"I mean don't dress the usual. Wear a gown for a change" I laugh.

"I am not doing that" she replies.

It's not like my parents would mind or anything,but I would love to see her in a gown.

I wake up to the blinding rays that almost fry my eyeballs.

Why does it have to be so hot??. I can't wait for winter!

I let out a groan when I realize I just had a dream. Another dream about Ruby.

Where we actually said "I love you".

Why is she so sweet in my dreams,but the opposite in real life?

I actually think I'm going mad. This is the third dream this week.

I get up from the bed as I get my dumbbells.

When I'm finally done with everything,I have my bath.

I get a plain black t-shirt and slide it on with a pair of jeans and my shoes..
