Max's story

Chapter 2

Shelby: oh.......... well this is awkward ummmm Max I like you a lot like you said but I already have a boyfriend his name is Alex and he lives in my trailer park...... I'm sorry
Max was crushed by this text, but he didn't want to hurt Shelby's feelings so he acted as if everything is okay. His phone buzzes again, it's Shelby.
Shelby: R U ok?
Max:  Yea Im good it was just a question
Shelby: R U sure?
Max: Yea
Max didn't know what to think after that his one and only crush already has a boyfriend. Max didn't show any of his sadness to Shelby or anyone so that Shelby wouldn't feel bad and so the other students don't come up to him and ask him what's wrong. Me and Shelby still remained "Best Friends" we basically acted like nothing happed.


3 months goes by (It's December)
Monday December 1st
I walked up to Shelby's locker like I usually do and I see Shelby is upset. I see her punch her locker. "Okay I need to go over there and find out what's wrong before she hurts herself" I thought to myself before I walked over to Shelby. "what's wrong Shelby?!" "Nothing" she says. "No, no, no I just saw you punch your locker after you closed it" I said to her trying to get her to tell me what's wrong and why she's so upset. "ok... me and Alex broke up" she starts to tear up "he told me that he has been cheating on me basically the whole relationship" I stand there shocked kind of excited but more shocked than anything. "He told me that this guy was much better and that he didn't want to be with me anymore". She starts to cry and the tears start to pour down her face. I pull her into a hug and tell her that everything is going to be alright in hopes to calm her down. She starts to calm down but then snuggles into my chest and squeezes tighter. "Thank you for being such a good friend to me and always being there for me you truly are the bestest friend I've ever had". " Your welcome you're my bestest friend too and the nicest person I know he obviously doesn't deserve you" I move out of the hug tilt her chin up so she's looking at me "and he definitely doesn't deserve your tears that your shedding over him he obviously doesn't see your true potential ".  She smiles and we walk around school like usual before school starts.
3 days goes by (its Thursday)
I sat down during my study hall and I write Shelby a note. It says "Heyy Shelby I know you've already heard this from me but you should hear it again. I like you a lot Shelby and have for a long time. Do you still like me the same way? If you do will you go out with me and do me the honor of being my girlfriend? I'll prove to you that not all guys are the same. I promise to treat you with the most respect and promise to also treat you like a queen. So what do you say, will you go out with me?
I finished the note and now I just have to give it to her. Its 5thperiod and I see Shelby sitting down and I walk over to her and talk to her  and then when the bell rang for class to start I slipped the note to her before I went to go sit down in my assigned seat. After school me and her walk to the buses like we usually do, as we were walking she asks me "what's this for?" "You'll figure it out when you read it" I say as I smirk at her.
It's Friday morning and 3rdperiod comes around and she passes me the note that she used to reply to my note. I open the note up and it said"YES!!!!!!"I smile so big and blush a little when she's looking at me with those soft and precious eyes. I turn the note over and it says in small writing "why wouldn't I date you? " I almost cried in happiness but didn't because of how humiliating that would be? We couldn't stop looking at each other that hour and our last hour. Every day I love looking at her, "she gives me butterflies I my stomach and every time I look into her eyes I melt because they're so beautiful they're the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen. No... wait... She's the most beautiful person I've ever seen or met. I love everything about her and every time I see her it reminds me of how lucky I am to have her" I say in my head. She was the first one that said "I love you" I thought it was a little early since it had only been a week that I had been with her at that time but I went along with it and then a couple of weeks went by and I start to realize why she had started saying that so early. It was because she felt the strong feelings that I feel for her now earlier than me. She knew so much about me and she admitted to me that she had fallen for me a long time ago and was waiting for the day that she'd be able to tell me that she loved me and meant it.
(A few months go by and we're still together and we love each other even more than before)
It's March and we have been together for 3 months already we love each other. Every time we pass people in the halls when we're alone people ask us if we are still dating and without any hesitation her and I say "Yes". It's really funny when people pass by her and I kissing or simply hug and they're like "EWWWWWWWW GET A ROOM!" We both laugh every time, when she starts to look like she's sad I when people tell us that I always tell her" They're just jealous, don't pay attention to them just laugh". She loves it whenever we're able to hang out after school because out of school we're able to cuddle and watch Netflix together. I love doing that just as much as she does because it just gives us more time just the two of us and we don't have to worry about friends bothering us . Dates don't really happen often but every time we have a date we cherish the time we have together and never take advantage of it. Time seems to fly whenever I'm with her so fast that the next morning I realize its June and it's the last day of school we get to go to this park area near the school for the day. I was so excited to cuddle with Shelby in the sun and basically have a picnic together I guess it could be counted as a date but our friends would be there and now that I think about it I don't think that'd be counted as a date. I get to school and see her by her locker I give her a huge hug and I say" I don't want this to be the last day I get to see you every day, I'm gonna miss you a lot this summer" She replies with a sniffle and says" I don't want to this to be the last day I get to see you and I'm gonna miss you a lot as well". The bell rings and we look at each other and say "NOOOOOO" in unison. "I don't want to go" she says while colliding into me giving me a huge hug I giggle and I tell her "It'll be ok, we'll see each other once we get to the park". She looks up to me with those adorable and cute puppy eyes and says "fine, but I'm still gonna miss you though" and then she walks to her first hour and I walk in the opposite direction to my first hour. As I'm walking to my first hour I think to myself "damn I'm so lucky to have her she's so kind, NOT self-centered at all, she cares so much about me and others, and on top of it all she's absolutely BEAUTIFUL AND SHE LOVES ME. Once I get into my first hour the teacher takes attendance and then he leads us to the park where everybody else is. I see Shelby is there already and she's laying down with her arms holding her up and just sun-bathing waiting for me to get there I decide to sneak up on her. I kind succeed and run to her from behind so she doesn't see me and I get to her and hug her tightly. She jumped a little bit (which was adorable) and once she realized it was me and not someone else she relaxes and then takes in my hug. She turns her head and gives me a kiss in the middle of the kiss she says to me" I've been expecting you". She giggles and I move in and kiss her passionately. The kiss ended up being so powerful that she falls back slowly so she can lie down while I kiss her. Then in the middle of the kiss our third hour teacher (Ms.Davis which both her and I hate) come over and yell at us " YOU GUYS SHOULDN'T BE DOING THAT ... THAT'S AGAINST SCHOOL RULES!!!!!!"
            I smirk when she says a comment that gets her boiling mad. She says "but we're not at school are we? And you kind of can't do anything about it anyhow because we only have 30 minutes left of school and we need to get back to the school so we can catch the bus PLUS...... it's the last day of school soooo really you don't have any power here". The sight of Ms.Davis's face after Shelby told her that was absolutely priceless. She stormed off and went back to what she was doing and Shelby an I just continued after I looked her in the eyes and said "so... where were we" and smirk after that.
