Silenced

Not Sure...

6 WEEKS TILL PROM.....

" IT'S HERE!" Indi says, bursting in my Math class.

" oh-OH MY GOD!IT'S HERE! IT'S HERE!" I say, getting up and running out of class.

We run to Indi's locker, and that's where I see it....

My prom dress!

God.... It's even better in person!

" Go try it on!"

" Ok. How many more dresses are coming?"

" None. You were the last to get your dress!" Indi says.

" oh." I say, grabbing my dress.

I quickly run to the bathroom, and change.

I run to Indi.

" Ta-Da!"

" Wow, you look amazing!

" Thank you."

All of a sudden, we hear something drop.

I turn around to see Gavin, a- WAIT, WHY IS GAVIN HERE?

" GAVIN WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?" Indi yells, trying to cover me.

" I-I was going to the... nurse.. cause i have a headache, and- wow!" Gavin says, barely getting words out.

I smile, knowing he's speechless.

" Y-You look... wow... uh-"

" Thank you." I say blushing.

We both stand there in silence for a moment.

" I-I should go. See you later?" Gavin said.

" Yeah.... Oh um, I'd really like to talk to you later!"

" Ok, sounds good.... bye"

"bye" I say smiling.

As he walks away, I can't stop thinking about how I'm actually going to Prom with him! I go back to class, ready to get sent to detention.

" PLEASE!!!!"

" Why do you even wanna see this movie anyways? It's just like every other romance movie." Gavin says, closing his locker.

" Cause, it may be different! You'll never know, unless we see it!" I say.

" hm.... tempting..."

" I'll pay for snacks, and drinks!"

"..... fine. What time is the movie?"

I pull my phone out of my pocket excitedly, and go onto the AMCE MOVIES app.

" 5:00!"

" Ok, so what should we do in the mean time?"

" I don't know.... Oh, let's go play some Minecraft!"

" Minecraft? Man, I haven't played in ages! Yeah, let's go!" Gavin says.

" OH COME ON!" Gavin says, dropping the controller next to him.

" Hey- Not my fault you suck at Minecraft!"

He gasps dramaticly, and tackles me.

I laugh, the suddenly feel like I can't breath. I look at Gavin, and see he's blushing.

"....."

" we should probably talk...."

" Yeah, no thanks." I say, moving him off of me.

I've never been good at relationships. Last one I was in, I ruined it. I made way too many mistakes, and ruined a perfectly innocent boy.

" Coco- It's bound to happen- Let's just get it over with!"

" I gotta go-" I say grabbing my stuff.

" Coco-" He says grabbing my arm before I get up.

" LET GO! I-I just can't talk about it yet. Plus it's pretty obvious what we are!"

" And what is that? Cause I truly can't tell! Do you like me, do you not, what is it?" He says, standing up.

" I DON'T KNOW! ISN'T THAT THE POINT OF THIS? NEITHER OF US KNOWING?"

" No, it's not! Coco I really like you! I love how you smile, I love your mean sarcastic personally- But I need to know if this is real or not! I need to know if I'll get hurt again, or if this will actually work- So PLEASE for me, tell me what this is!"

" You want an answer? Fine! We're nothing, but friends! Friends who kissed once, friends who hang out almost everyday- Friends who can't be themselves around other people- FRIENDS WHO WISHED THEY COULD GIVE YOU WHAT YOU WANT!"

Gavin goes quiet.

Oh shit....

I've done it again.....

".... I-I'm sorry, I-"

I get caught off by Gavin kissing me. He quickly pulls away.

" Do friends do that? No! Friends support each other no matter what, friends don't just give up so easily- Friends don't leave, when they get scared! I think you just scared to admit you like me! What's stopping you Coco? I-Is their something wrong with me? Am I just impossible to love?!" He says, tearing up near the end.

I hug him.

He doesn't say anything, and just cries into my shoulder.

" i'm sorry gavin. I-I just don't want to hurt you, yet I still did it....."

I really like Gavin.....

I do.....

But I can't hurt him anymore...

I let go of him, and walk out of his house. I ran as fast as I could to my house.

he didn't even follow....
