After the whole hangout, that's when it hit me. I forgot to get his phone number. It was almost dark to ask him so I didn't bother to do it today. I waited tomorrow to ask him. It's been on my mind to get it. I didn't know if he would show up at my house to talk to me or not. I was just over exaggerating. I woke up the next morning, k totally forgot about it until I was brushing my teeth.

I needed to relax since I was over thinking about it too much. I went outside in my backyard and sat on my porch. I took a deep breath and looked the view around me. I closed my eyes, until I heard a voice right next to me.

" hey David! "

it was andrews voice.

I opened to my eyes to see him in his backyard waving at me. I didn't know what to do so I just waved back. He came closer and then suddenly he kept talking to me. I looked at him he was talking about some hat or something?..

" why don't I go to your backyard instead. "
I said to him.

" sure! " he smiled back

I went to his backyard and it was jaw dropping when I finally got to see it in person. It was just so cozy over there. I sat down on the porch chair and looked at the trees. I was looking at him and he looked back, what I think he was staring at me... he hid his mouth with his hand. I suppose he looked at me and got embarrassed. I wouldn't know. I smiled a little, knowing he was looking at me. I sighed and looked at Andrew.

" hey, do you wanna like hang out and maybe go see a movie next week?" He said to me.

" sure! I'll be down to hang out! I also wanted to say something too." I replied back. I wanted to confess to him. I couldn't hold it anymore.

" well?.. " he said back to me.

" nevermind I forgot... " I replied back to him.

He looked interested what I wanted to say to him but, maybe another day when I have the confidence to. I sighed and looked down at my shoes.  What does he think about me. I'm so curious.

" what do you think of me?.." I said to him.

" hmm?.. I guess a good person.. a funny one. I really think your such a good friend. " he replied

" yeah.. crazy." I said back to him

" I don't know why you would ask me that but I'm not bothered by it. What do you think of me though?.." he said.

*• I think of you as, a crush, •*

" I think of you as a amazing bestie, your always energetic, nice.. kind... that's all." I replied to him.

He seemed amused by my answer and got all energized. He kept talking and talking, I listen to him, I nod and listen.

What would he say about me if I told him. I really want to. Should I, nevermind I'll plan it out. After we sat on his porch we both went down to the basketball court near our houses. It wasn't that far away too, we arrived there and we sat down on the bench just talking for a while. Just like friends.. I wanted to be more than just friends. Something in my stomach felt weird. Like I needed to tell him. We stayed there for around a hour and head back.

" oh I forgot I ask you, I needed to tell you something but I forgot what it was, but I'll text you if I remember it." I said to him.

" okay! Don't forget to tell me! Keep me updated!"
He replied back.

I planned out everything. I was actually gonna do it. I was going to confess to him. It's only been like 2-3 weeks. But I couldn't hold it any longer. I was going to show up at his house, I'm gonna tell him, hopefully it doesn't ruin our friendship. That's the last thing I need. I really hope he understands what I'm feeling towards him.
I was trying to build up the confidence to knock on his door. I was still laying on my bed trying to memorize everything that I was going to say to him.

I took a deep breath and went outside, and knocked on his door, I didn't send him a text message or anything. Just talking to him in person. I waited until I saw him open the door, I looked at him in the eyes and told him.

" I remember what I was going to tell you, it's a secret." I said to him.

" finally! Let's go to my room so you can tell me." He replied back.

We went upstairs to his room and he closed the door, I sat on his bed and watched him sit on his chair. I took a deep breath and looked at him.

" after this, please don't get mad at me. Trust?..."
I said to him.

" yeah.. I won't get mad." He replied back.
