My place in the Diary of Jane

Going through her diary

Pages turned rapidly as Ben's eyes scattered throughout the words of her crush's diary.

"Where is it...?" He thought to himself as he flipped through the pages with his heart pounding a million times out of nervousness, knowing Jane would return back into the room at any moment.

"Did she even mention a single thing about me in her diary?" He muttered under his breath out of desperation, just to see any signs of reciprocation of feelings from her but... Nothing.

Yet he still didn't give up.

He turned... And turned another page until he reached the end of her diary where it was just blank pages.

His stubbornness got the better of him and flipped back to the pages... Still trying to find his place in the diary of Jane.

Suddenly, he heard footsteps and panic surges throughout his body and his heartbeat only got worse.

He closed the diary and placed it back where it was and he sat back down where he was earlier and Jane entered the room with a bright smile.

"I'm baaccck~" Her flirty-like tone brought a small smile on his face, finding it a bit funny.

"Hope you didn't do anything here... Or worse, went through my stuff?"

Ben let out a small scoff in a joking manner in order to throw her off from her suspicions.

"Pft! Like hell, I don't snoop through people's stuff. You know I'm a well-mannered person."

Jane let out a hearty laugh along with the response: "Of course, of course! You're my best friend after all!"

A small chuckle was his only response but in his mind... He took the last sentence personally. Those words ran through his head over and over while feeling his heart shattering.

The question still remains... Would he get the girl or not?
