Annie;

It's crazy, I haven't talked to him in ages yet it feels like it all just happened yesterday, the kiss, him saying it was a mistake.
My mind is still whirling with thoughts of him.
Especially today, because something happened last night that I would have never thought.

*flashback*
she kicked a rock along as she walked home, her back pack slung over her shoulder, she heard a rustle in the bushes and turned her head.
no one there.
at least she thought, she stayed looking long enough to see a boy emerge from the bushes, he started to run and she would have been scared for her life but she recognized his face anywhere. Brennan.
however she was scared, she hadnt seen him in what felt like forever.
she stood there baffled, he was just running to her.
when he finally got there she wasn't sure what to do, he was out of breath and couldn't speak.
And then the unthinkable happened, he leaned in and pressed there lips together and an icy chill rushed through her body, now she was the one out of breath.
*flashback over*

Now I was standing in the lunchroom looking for a place to sit, Arden waved me over and I slid into a seat next to her.
I couldn't concentrate, in fact I zoned out so much I didn't notice like tapping on my shoulder.
"Huh?" I said looking up at him.
He rocked back and forth from his toes to his heels.
"I was just wondering if you wanted to go get a smoothie?" He said.
I turned my head to him, and then to the table where Brennan was sitting, "no" I said turning back to my food.
Arden elbowed me "what was that?" She asked, Luke is one of the popular guys and to e asked out by him is big.
I shrugged my shoulders, suddenly my food didnt look so appealing anymore.
I stood up with my tray and walked to the trash where I dumped its contents in.
I slowly walked to my next class praying for the day to be over quickly.

When I got home I threw my bag on the couch and ran upstairs, I flopped onto my bed and grabbed my phone.
I dailed Arden's number, it rang three times before she picked up.
"Hey annie what's up" she said.
It was them I decided to spill it.

"when I first saw Brennan I didn't like him, or at least didnt think I did but we started hanging out and then he kissed me and then said it was a mistake and then yesterday he kissed me again two months later and I don't know what to think when I'm around him I feel diffrent, like he just instantly brightens my day and makes me feel all fuzzy in side and I just want to kiss him and lay with him all day and I don't know what to do I think I love him" I couldn't stop the last words from coming out of my mouth, I hadn't admitted it to myself yet but I think I saw it coming.
"I hate to say it annie but I can't help you" Arden said, I assured her it was okay and I just needed to talk and she helped a lot.
So I've got one thing cleared up,
I'm in love with Brennan.
