Ever since I met Caleb, we were best friends. I can't imagine him passing away... Why did he have to be the one to have this disease? He's just 13... He has a life ahead of him!
"Annie?"
"Yes?" She replies.
"Wanna talk over there? It's private..."
"Um, sure." She then hugs Katie and follows me to a corner.
"I love you..."
Annie doesn't say anything to me for about a minute... Until she finally speaks.
"Um, I love you too, I guess." She smiles. In the way I wanted her to. The love-love. Not the brother-sister love...
"I've been meaning to tell you that for awhile now and-"
She automatically hugs me before I can finish talking.
I smile as we hug and she begins to talk.
"You remind me of Caleb sometimes... But I've had a crush on you since we met." She blushes.
"I was scared that you would be weirded out..."
"Me? Weirded out? By you? Brennan? The cutest and sweetest boy I've met?" She says in a voice that gradually got higher as she spoke.
"Haha! You're so pretty and great at gymnastics. I'm so happy right no-"
Before I finish speaking Annie grabs me and we kiss softly...
"I better get back to my family. Thank you, Brennan." She says as she winks then walks away.
"Your welcome..." I whisper in a quiet way, trying not to freak out with excitement.
