“What are you doing here?”
“Why did you break up with Kim?” He looks at me intently.
“Because of you”
“W-What?” I blush. He walks closer. I nervously step back remembering that he was shirtless and undressed. He stops walking.
“I’ve lied to you and treated you badly Star. I guess to start being better I have to stop lying. The truth is I never liked Kim; I just used her for fun because I was upset and thought you used me. But now there’s no reason to be with her. I have no reason to be upset anymore because I was with you. After my parents died I felt like I had nothing to live for and then this little girl came out of nowhere into my heart without me expecting it and she made me feel sane again. You were the only thing that kept me living and when I found out about your parents and thought that you knew I felt alone. I went insane and then started to hurt you and hate you because I thought I was tricked.” He walks closer to me and I reached the wall. I stopped and he kept getting closer as he talked.
“When I started hurting you I realized that I cared about you and I wanted to lose this feeling by hurting you and I trying to forget but it never worked. As much as I tried I couldn’t relieve this feeling of wanting you, and being around you because my world doesn’t make sense without you” He puts his hands on the wall while facing me so I wouldn’t leave. I looked at him surprised as he kept talking.
“And that’s why I won’t give up no matter what even if you toss me aside and give up on me because I like you Star! I always have …” He slowly gets closer to my face and kissed me softly. My heart raised and my hands shivered with excitement. I can’t! I can’t admit that care about him because what if he’s like this to just get me back. What if Craig was right? What if Eliet could never really like me? I push him away and scream “Stop!” He looked confused.
“I don’t like you like that. You were just a friend to me. I’m leaving!” I started to walk off and he grabbed my hand and pushed me back into the position we were before.
“When we first kissed that night in my room you felt something. You kissed me back that day.” He gets closer and I look away. He gently moved my head while holding my chin. He looks into my eyes.
“You’re lying!” he smiles. “I can tell you’re lying Star. I know when you’re lying and you are now. You like me.”
“No I’m not!” dam he knows how to read me.
“Yes you are! I can tell tha- wait….You think I’m lying! You really think I would tell you this If I were?”
“You have lied to me before. It won’t be anything new if you were now!” He looked at me with his eyes looking innocent and said “Star you know when I’m lying and you know that right now I’m telling the truth but if you don’t believe me read this.” He walks to his locker and takes out a notebook and comes back to give it to me. “When you are done looking through it come back and tell me the truth. When you do I promise that I will make up for everything. I like you star.”
He smiles and kisses me in the cheek. “I’ll be waiting.” I turn around and walk away while blushing. I was late to my first class and I ran. I told the teacher that I had lost something and finally found it. The teacher looked at me suspiciously but since I was always good in class and this was the first time I was late she didn’t complain and just told me to sit down.
I sat down and started looking through the book and it had drawings of me. He drew us in the swings when we were little and my face a bunch of times. In one of the pages he even wrote something.
Dear Star, March 12, 1994
I have to confess so many things to you. I’ll start by saying that you are
Everything I could ever wish for. With you by my side I could be happy forever.
You made me strong in a time that I thought I would break and I’m so
Happy I met you. Where ever you are I will always want to be right beside
You so thank you for being with me and bring me back to a better person.
I will always care about you Star.
By. You’re Eliet
My eyes began to water up and I calmed down to not make a scene in class. Within each class I kept on looking through the notebook and when the bell rang for my last class Lyra and I headed to lunch which I have been avoiding before. While walking to my seat I saw that Eliet was here sitting with Johnny were he used to sit except Craig wasn’t there. Eliet noticed that I entered the lunch and I quickly looked away. Lyra and I sat down in the table. I started to look through the book with interest. I flipped through the pages and then found another letter he wrote.
Dear Star, January 2, 1995
We are finally friends again and I feel like I can finally breathe. I’m so happy
every time were together I want to hug you and take you in my heart. I
want to hold you in my arms and tell you how much I care about you.
I want to wake up every morning by your side and show you every second
that I care about you so much. I want to tell you so much that when I look
in the sky I see your worm loving eyes. I dream about you star all the time
even when I was a small kid. When your near me I want to kiss you like the
night you gave away your first kiss to me. If I ever tell you the truth about
how I feel I hope I get a chance to be in your heart because you are
everything that I live for Star.
By. Eliet
I started blushing and Lyra Started to ask what I was reading. I said I was reading a romance story I had made a while back for school. She left it alone. Lyra nagged me to get in line and stop reading that notebook before I starved to death but I went in line with the notebook. When we were in line I felt like someone was watching me.
I looked around and spotted Eliet gazing at me and smiling because I was reading his notebook so much. I closed the notebook and put it under my arm and acted like a kid by sticking out my tongue at him in a joking way. He laughed and I turned away. After that Eliet didn’t approach me the whole time we were in school until later.
I walked down the hall and open the exit door of school. Eliet was outside waiting for me. I went down the stairs nervously. My legs were shaking and my hands was too. I never bin this nerves around Eliet. I stopped and I was a couple of feet away from him. I didn’t get to close so he wouldn’t notice that I was nerves.
He walks closer to me and says “Do you believe me now?” I hesitate to answer. I breath out to prepare myself. Ok I’m ready.
