It's 10 months later and things are going great. My blog has been nominated for Best Teenage Talk Site ,even tho I didn't win it, I felt already honored to be nominated though. oh and that presentation about internet friends? I got the highest score of the class. Ethan and I stayed good friends.

"well..what do you think?" I turned around and showed Ethan my dress for a school dance this weekend.

I thought about not going but My mom wants me to be 'social and enjoy my teenlife' .That's only thing that's making me go and that there's gonna be snacks.

"You look beautiful" he gives me a cheeky smile.

"thank you" I chuckle.

"well.." I sat down. " when are gonna meet each other?"

"soon" he winks at me.

"I mean like...seriously"

"I know I know..But I've been busy lately." He spoke to me.

"with?" I raised my eyebrow at him.

"stuff" he lays back on his bed.

"well..if you don't want to meet me..you can just say it." I said to him.

"no..it's just..I don't really think.."

he sits back up.

"my girlfriend would like that.." he sighs.

wait..what? his girlfriend? He never told me he had a girlfriend... I mean..huh? I thought he felt the same way about me as I feel for him.

"oh you have a girlfriend?...I mean.. that's amazing." I tried not to sound upset.

"Sorry I forgot to tell you. Her name is Jenny and we've been dating for.."

he starts to count on his fingers.

"next friday,2 months" He confirmed.

"whoa 2 months of loving and caring. I'm so happy for you" I said. I hope he didn't notice the sarcasm.

"Mae..Are you ok with me dating?" he asks me.

"yeah I'm totally fine with that."

and there was the awkward silence again..

"oh now that I think about it.. I Have to go...uh..buy some jewelry with Sarah, say hey to Jenny for me"

"wait Mae I ha-" I cut him off and closed my laptop.

I took of my dress, changed into my pjs I don't care that it's only 4 pm. I just laid on my bed and start to cry. I just can't stop thinking about him.

I searched for his letters in my drawer.

Dear Mae

you're one of a kind,do you know that?

And another one.

Dear Mae

do you know how it is to have feelings for someone,you think of its they feel the same way?

"well no Ethan" I wipe my tears away.

I didn't even bother reading the whole letter. We stopped writing each other when the project was done. That's when Ethan finally got himself a phone.

I heard my laptop bleep so I checked what it was.

@EthanDolan8 wants to video chat.

I clicked on declined and then saw that he send me (8) messages.

Ethan Dolan : hey Mae whatsup?

Ethan Dolan : Are you mad?

Ethan Dolan : Mae r U okay? ;)

Ethan Dolan : that was lame

Ethan Dolan : Don't ignore Mae

Ethan Dolan : now I will stop

Ethan Dolan : ok I can see that you didn't really liked the idea of me dating.

Ethan Dolan : I thought we were friends..you should be supporting me.

As I was reading the texts I saw that he was typing again.

Ethan Dolan : I saw that you read my messages.

Ethan Dolan : You know what? Whatever..

well that broke my heart..He doesn't care at all. I'm gonna make sure he will think I don't care either.

HA I took this story to another direction.
