You are in LOVE

Seven

Reputation was just a child when she first realised she had feelings for her best friend 'Lover'.

<Reputation>
We where playing on the swing set when Lover told me about a boy she liked. She told me that he was the most gorgeous guy she had ever seen and that she would do anything for him. His name was Dave. I felt jealous. But I didn't even like this boy. At that time I didn't understand why I was so jealous.

*time skip of 3 years*

When Dave and Lover finally got together, I understood. I was in love... But not with Dave... I was in love with my best friend. I couldn't accept it at first. Being in love with Lover would mean that I was gay. I decided to hide my feelings and acted like nothing ever happened. That didn't work out very well. As time went on I started dreaming about Lover more often. Probably because we didn't hangout as much as we did when we were kids. The worst part was that I couldn't talk to anyone about my feelings. They just wouldn't understand.

Their relationship went on for almost 7 years.

On a Wednesday night in October when I was home alone (my parents where on a vacation for two weeks) I suddenly heard a knock on the door. I wasn't expecting anyone that night. I got a bit scared. I decided to go look though the window and see who was there. It was Lover. I opened the door and saw the girl in front of me. She was soaked from the rain and she was crying.
'Can I come in?' she whispered.
'yes, yes of course.' I grabbed a towel and started drying her of. She just stood there, watching me and crying. 'Rep, something terrible happened.'
I stood up.
'what happened?'
she started crying even harder.
'I broke up with Dave...'
I felt happy. But I knew I shouldn't be. 'aww, I'm so sorry Lov.'
'I know you really loved him and cared about him.'
'I did.' the girl fell into my arms and cried. We stood there for a while.

When she finally calmed down a little I carried her to my couch.
'Do you want something to drink? Something warm maybe?'
'yes, some chocolate milk please.'
I made her the hot chocolate and brought it to her.
'Why did you and Dave break up? What happened?'
she started crying a bit. 'He... He che... He cheated...'
'HE WHAT?' I was mad at him for cheating on Lover.
Who could ever cheat on Lover. He made her really sad. I hated to see Lover sad 'cause it made me sad aswell.
' He didn't deserve you Lov, he really didn't. ' she nodded and drank the hot chocolate. After a while she fell asleep in my arms. I liked it. I liked how she felt save in my arms, i could feel her relaxing. A couple of minutes later I fell asleep aswell.

<Lover>
I woke up with sore eyes. I must've cried alot yesterday. I felt two arms wrapped around me tightly. I assumed they were Dave's arms so I didn't think anything of it. I started scanning the room. Where was I. I was laying on a red couch.
'Dave doesn' t have a red couch.' I whispered to myself.
I turned around to see who was holding me. Reputation... That' s when I remembered. I started crying again. 'hey hey what's wrong Lov?' Rep asked me.
' I don' t know what to do anymore. ' she wiped my tears and pulled me into a tight hug. I felt save in her arms.
'you can stay here for a while. My parents are on vacation so it's just me'
' Thank you Rep. '
' do you want to eat something? You seem hungry. '
' yes, please. '

Rep brought me a bowl of cereal with milk and a chocolate candy bar for herself. I ate the cereal and played with my spoon, I stared at the bowl. Reputation noticed.
' Do you wanna watch a movie to cheer you up a little? '
' yeah, that sounds good!' I moved closer to her. I didn' t sleep well and was feeling really tired. Half way through the movie I started slowly falling asleep. Rep grabbed me and laid me on her lap.
'Are you sleepy again?' she started laughing.
'Lov it' s 1Pm.' I didn' t respond.
We watched the rest of the movie in complete silence. She started stroking my hair. I think she tought I was asleep 'cause she started whispering things to me.
Things that I wasn' t supposed to hear. 'I'm glad you broke up with Dave.'
I just pretended like I didn't hear that. 'I couldn't stand him.' she continued.
'I guess I was jealous of him.'
'I've been jealous of him since we were seven. I just never really realised it until you two got together.' 'I love you...'
she whispered the last sentence really quiet so no one could hear it. But I heard it... I was mad at her. But I also felt a bit of joy. I didn't understand why.
