*Romance*

"Do you want to know the truth?" She asked, looking up at him. They were in a secluded part of the library, hidden away by two walls of books, the table in front of them stacked high with novels and textbooks also blocked their view.

He had a confused expression. The truth about what?

"Do you want to know why I don't want date you?" She clarified. She placed her book down on the table, ticking a bookmark between the pages as she waited for a response.

When she did not receive one she continued.

"It's because I can't see anyone actually looking me. I'm the good, nice girl that can't say no.

People want the good girl with an edge she hides behind her books, I don't have that. People take advantage of me, of my kindness. I compliment others often and never know when their response is genuine.

You guys have always joked around me with an element of truth. I'm boring, Daniel, I'm dull, not interesting, I'm a wimp, a wuss. What I consider a good time is sitting in silence together not doing anything or just doing our own thing.

You guys want to talk, you always want to talk. You get bored and awkward with silence while I embrace it as long as no one else finds it awkward.

So I'm distancing myself because I just can't see us happening."

She finished and got up, placing hey books into hey bag. She knew she took out too many books and she wouldn't be able to read them all before they were overdue but she just couldn't resist.

Hey eyes drifted to Daniel before quickly averting back to the bag in her hands. She could see how badly he wanted to respond but she didn't want to hear it.

"What?" He asked as she was walking away. She smiled sadly and shook her head.

"I'm rambling, ignore me."

Alrighty, so this one doesn't have a picture but whatever. I wrote this one a while ago when I was having some problems with a friend of mine (his name was not mentioned, that was just a random name) and I wanted to say this out loud to all my friends for so long but I just can't bring myself to actually tell them any of this.

Anywho, I hope it wasn't horrible and I'd love some comments or votes, just to encourage me a bit more but whatever.

Ciao!
