H.I.M

Please don't get angry

I'm stupid.

I sneaked out. I did it just so I could tell Grey to stay the hell away from me.

I wanted to tell him I didn't like him that way, that I spoke to him, only because I was being polite.

So I climbed out of my window, down my pipe and finally found myself walking towards the town park. The only one we had.

I made myself as comfortable as I could be on the benches, and stared at the stars. Beauty.

“Leeroy...hey” a husky deep voice spoke, behind me. I need not be told ...Grey was here and my heart was on the verge of bursting...at this rate I was going to die before saying anything.

“Hunter? ...hey” I said a little too low for my liking, I turned towards him ... giving myself the opportunity to admire God's work of art.

“ Thanks for coming. For a moment there ...I thought I had freaked you out. ” he said.

He cleared his throat and sat next to me. Although I could barely make out the trees, Grey was clear in my eyes, Boy! was he not nervous.

“ Right ...I'm guessing I have to explain that text... uhhhhhhh Leeroy look, I know you are the picture perfect boy. The one who aces all his tests, the one who goes to church every Sunday and the one who's just too nice for his own good. So my confession probably scared you. I really like you Leeroy, like a lot. I think you are cool and funny and just overall the best person I've ever met.

You are sarcastic and you view the world so differently, you aren't a people's person and prefer to stand alone which is pretty awesome. I know you don't know me ...and probably think I'm crazy for liking you. ..but if you could just give me the chance ...maybe you would like me too  Just one chance.” he said

Where the hell did all the words I had prepared for him go?

When I looked at him, I only saw a boy.

Scared to be rejected.
