"I like you, Aiden." You confessed to your best friend of 4 years. He looked shocked. "Uh.. I'm sorry Ivy.. I-" He stuttered and you laughed. "I'm the one who's supposed to be sorry, Aiden." He looked confused. "It was a dare. Sorry about that. Don't worry about it, alright? See you tomorrow!" You said in a playful tone and left the classroom. In reality, it was not a bet at all.. it was real, it was a real feeling towards him. 'It's okay, Ivy, at least you know his feelings towards you. What a lucky save..' Inner you.
Next day came and you decided to go to school earlier than usual. You saw something that made you stop in your tracks and made your eyes watery. You saw Aiden and a girl. They were chatting and laughing. There goes your heart, broken. You had a feeling that your best friend, Aiden, has found someone but you didn't want to jump into conclusions, so you decided to throw your thoughts away. "Oh Ivy! Meet Carey!! Uhh, you know? We kinda became a couple just now." He said while he rubbed his nape and smiled widely with his lips pressed together.
He looked like he had always liked her for a long time. His actions and how he acts around her showed a lot. You tried hard to hold back your tears. "Oh! Nice to meet you Carey!" You said and held your hand out. She smiled and shook your hand. "Likewise!" She replied. "You know, he can be a handful but I think he'll be okay under your control." You said it while you tried not to let tears escape your eyes. You wanted to be a supportive best friend. "What are you saying? I have never give you hard times!" He whined which made Carey laugh.
"Thank you for the heads up!" She said and smiled widely at him. "What? Come on, not you too." He sulked which made her ruffled his hair. 'They're really in love with each other, don't they? Good for him.' Inner you, trying to be positive about it, and as a distraction from crying. "Uhh, I think I will go to class first! See ya!" You said, ready to leave when he grabbed your arm. "Wait! Go with us!" He said. "What the? No way, you have to spend time with Carey as a couple. Not with me. Come on, be a good boyfriend. I'll go first, see ya!" You said and walked fast. You placed your bag down and went to the toilet. You took out your phone and typed out your feelings into the note in your phone.
Your tears fell on your phone as you typed all of that and finally broke down at the end. Moments later, you get yourself together and wash your face. 'It's okay, smile.' Inner you and you smiled. You entered the class to see him already seated at his seat, which is in front of you. You sat down and he turned to you.. "Where have you been?" He asked. "The toilet." You replied and he nodded. A few seconds later, the teacher entered and he faced the front. 'Even if I can only see your back and be around you, I'm happy.. it's better than nothing..' Inner you.
