One-sided love sucks

Say What?!

I have stared at Mike for over an hour. I couldn't help not to. Staring at him was like my drug. Even if I wanted to stop, I couldn't. But this time I had a reason for staring at him, not like I needed one. Mike didn't seem like himself today. First, he calls me at 8 o clock at night saying he has something he wanted to tell me. But all he does is sit on by bed, staring into space when I get here. It was weird. Then again, it not like Mike has ever been normal. And I was in love with this guy, so what does that make me?

Mike finally seems to come back to Earth. His dark hazel eyes turn to mine, as he does his trademark grin. My heart goes Thump. Thump. Thump. Thump. Thump. I hated that Mike had this type of effect on me and he didn't even know it.

"What do I have something on my face?"

No."

"Why was you staring at my face then?"

"I was...just staring at your ugliness." Wow nice cover. You think after hiding my feeling for my best friend for years, I would have gotten better at lying. But no.

Mike doesn't notice my obvious lie. That's not a surprise. He doesn't notice anything. "Ha I could get anything girl I want," Mike said smugly. It's not a complete lie. He was a handsome football player, a nice person, and smart. Those three qualities made girls throw themselves at him. Literally. One time a group of his fan girl chase him (and me because I was with him) around the town. At the end of the chase Mike was missing a shirt, a shoe, and his watch. Yeah shit gets real for football player here.

"You forgot you already have a girl. Joechla, remember?"

"...Yeah." Anybody other person wouldn't notice how his smile falters a little at when I mention her name. I was his best friend, not any other person.

"What did that bit- I mean your girlfriend done now?" Joechla, his bitch of a girlfriend who he has dated for three years is the worst girlfriend. I'm not saying this because I jealous (I am), it's the truth. She would forget his birthday. She repeatedly asks Mike for money till he barely have any money for himself. "Forget" to come to his game. She only cares about herself and literally put the I in BITCH. Mike the love struck person he is, forgive everything she does. All she has to do is bat her lashes and Mike putty in her hands. And Joechla know it . Beside to most people Mike and Joechla are the perfect couple, her a pretty blonde cheerleader and Mike a handsome football player.

A flash of sadness crosses through Mike eyes. Whatever that bitch did it must have been pretty bad. For Mike usually cheerful eyes to look so..sullen. He mutters something so loud that I couldn't hear it.

"What?"

Mike avoids my gaze, looking at the ground. That was another clear sign that something was wrong. Mike avoid people gaze when he doesn't want people to know what he feelings. "She broke up with me," he repeated.

"...What?!!!!!!! Why?!!!!" I've wished for them to break up for years. I never thought it would happen, though. Oh my god. The witch was finally gone!!!! Calm down and try not to smile. Mike is sad don't show that you're happy about the breakup.
