"Harper...can we talk about something serious?" My voice was shaking just a bit. I wanted to tell her how I felt. How things are changing and I'm seeing her Ina different way. I'm scared she will think its weird.
"Yea, of course. Always." Her voice was shaking a bit too. Was she scared?
"So. I wanted to talk about..." I stuttered a bit. I am so nervous. "Um. 'Us'..."
"Jona. Let me say something first. I started out thinking we would just be friends. But the more time I spend with you, I feel like we could be something real. I bet that sounds weird but that's just a thought." She looked at her arms the whole time, at the scars buried deep within her wrist. I grabbed her arm and covered her scars. She looked at me hesitantly. I looked in her eyes and got down on the floor in front of her. "Harper. You've been my best friend for a while. Every day I grow finder and fonder of you. Your beautiful and smart. Your funny, chill, and perfect all around. I know your past. I know what you've been through. And I'm here for you. Just let me tell you that everyday. That your beautiful. That your special to me." And just like that, she began to cry.
