New chapter up! This is you and U-KISS's Eli. Definitely a cutie he is! :')
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Your' POV
It's been a few years since I've known Eli. He was my high school crush. Well, maybe he still is.... But that's not the point here. I met him when we were children, well, I guess we are basically childhood friends? He never talk to me since. I don't know, but for some reason, I felt that I wanted to know him more when we entered High School together. He did not know about me and I certainly did not care at that point of time. What he did not know was that, I've been admiring him since.
I had to say I wasn't the best looking student there. Every day, girls would purposely push me down when I'm walking to lunch or even the locker. That fateful incident had let me to Eli, the school's star. He was both athletic and smart. It was a miracle to even look at him upclose.
"Yah, watch where you're going four eyes," a girl pushed me down.
I could not be bothered and continued to pick up my things from the floor.
"Yah, are you not going to apologise, pathetic being!" she pushed me down harder and those witnesses had laugh.
"What are you doing to her?" a familiar voice was heard across corridors.
"Do you know that it's bullying if you do this to a student?" Eli appeared with his groups of friends.
Eli came closer to me and had help me to stand up.
"Are you okay?" he asked.
I nodded.
"If I ever see this kind of behaviour, I would report it to the teachers. Do you understand?" Eli said sternly.
The witnesses apologised and had disappeared away from the scene. I looked at him dumbfounded, not knowing what to say.
"Are you hurt? Do you need anything?" He peered into my face.
I shooked my head.
"Well, in that case, take care and be careful," he smiled and left.
I can't believe I talked to Eli. The man of my dreams. His smile, and his voice. Am I dreaming? I hope not because I would never want to wake up from it. I looked at him as he walked away, with his camera sling on his neck. Forever taking photos of the surroundings. I had decided that I'm changing. Changing everything about myself with the help of my friends.
>>Fast Forward<<
I was at home, star gazing. I remembered what my friends said. 'Trace his name on the stars in the sky.' They read a book called '9 Recipes To Get Your Love', so I tried to do it.
"I'm being stupid," I sigh.
"No you're not. Come on, trace it with me," a dark shadow appeared behind me.
It was none other than Eli.
I'd noticed how he'd bring his camera everywhere to take pictures of everything. Everytime he talks to me, I can't say a word.
He held my hand and trace his name with me. Holding. My. Hand.
"Eli! Where are you? I've been looking all over for you," a figure appeared.
"Sorry man, I met my friend and had a little talk. C'mon, let's go Peniel," they left.
I was too awed to process what just happen.
"AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!" I screamed out loud and ran home.
The next morning, my teacher had convince me to play the role of 'Snow White' in a school play. We were not accepted in the classical dance curiculum. Somehow, I was manipulated along with my friends.
