I opened the door and stepped inside with a sigh of relief escaping my lips. I looked up after closing the front door behind me and saw London sitting on my couch, gazing at me. Seeing him made me a bit happy and shocked since I wasn't expecting to see him here as he stood and walked up to me, but once I remembered why I had been ignoring him; I frowned. He noticed my expression and started to look a bit concerned. "You don't seem very happy to see me. I've noticed that you've actually been avoiding me.. Did I do something wrong?." He looked so sad, and I couldn't stand to look at him and turned my head away. My frown only grows into pure sorrow. "You have a girlfriend and yet you tried to kiss me. I've caught you with tons of different girls all week!" I felt so upset as I continued and glared at him with disappointment. "You're a player." His reaction to my words immediately made me feel horrible and so much regret but I couldn't take it back.  "I don't have a girlfriend. I wasn't trying to get with those girls, I was just trying to invite them to Clark's party because he insisted that I ask the girls, and I'm sorry for trying to kiss you. I didn't know you didn't like me that much." I was so shocked and disappointed in myself for thinking so horrible of him. I had let both him and me down and I knew I had lost my chance with him. I felt awful for saying all those things. How was I going to make it up to him now? "I should go." I watched him walk past me to the door, but I couldn't just let him leave. Not like this. I grabbed his hand and held tightly so he wouldn't leave.

I held his hand even tighter as he turned and looked down at me. "I'm sorry. I didn't know... I shouldn't have just assumed, and I didn't mean to hurt your feelings. I still want to be friends with you, if that's okay... And I do like you... I just really thought you were with Silva since that's what she told me." I exhaled heavily from holding my breath for so long. I saw a soft smile grow on his face before he pulled me into him and hugged me tightly. I was shocked at first but when it was processed, I knew that he had forgiven me, and I thankfully didn't lose him. I hugged him back then looked up at him as he slowly let go and kissed my forehead. "I'll see you tomorrow morning. I'll wait for you right outside your dorm. Bye gorgeous." I couldn't help but blush from his affection then slowly waved bye while smiling as he walked out. I sighed heavily and slowly turned and saw Night staring at me in shock with her jaw dropped to the floor. "Heh... Soo.. that's London." She slowly nodded her head yes while still making the same expression. "And I think I really like him but I'm not exactly sure what to do about it. Hehe..." She blinked once before screaming and squealing while jumping up and down. I chuckled a bit as he plopped onto the couch. "Tell me everything!!" I sighed with a smile then walked over to her and sat down on the couch beside her. We ended up talking about London then Brendon for hours on end until around 2:30 in the morning. Night started to yawn a couple times before I suggested we go to sleep and can continue talking tomorrow. I hugged her goodnight then walked to my room. After I closed the door then crawled into bed, I grabbed my pillow, shoved my face in it, then screamed as loud as I could. I fell back on my bed and started giggling while thinking about London. I think I'm finally going to get my chance with him. All I need to do now is stay patient. I can do that, right?

I woke up a bit late this morning but thankfully, Night didn't let me sleep in for a whole 30 minutes this time. I took a quick shower then started chaos by trying to find a nice outfit to impress London.  I found one of my old uniform skirts that shockingly still fit but was a bit short. I grabbed one of my white buttons up shirts and tucked it under the waistband of the skirt and started to button it up until I realized that all my jeans were missing. I rushed out of my room and over to the living room so I could see Night without walking so far away. "Night!! I'm going to murder you if you stole another pair of my jeans! I only have like 5 now and they're all dirty!" After yelling at her, I noticed a presence was near and turned to see London. I hadn't finished my makeup, and my shirt wasn't even fully buttoned up so I'm pretty sure my bra was visible. My hair was also still in a loose bun from last night since I sleep with my hair up every night. I was so embarrassed but I didn't want him to notice so I held it together. "Uh.. Hey gorgeous." He seemed a bit anxious but it was kind of cute since he was also pretty red as well. He kept creeping down at my chest and body in general but I knew he was trying to fight it and be polite. He got up and walked up to me with a bit of excitement. "I uh.. Brought you something." He looked away and at the rose as he pulled it out from behind his back and held it up to me. I was stunned and filled with so much joy as it was my favorite flower and it was absolutely beautiful.
