Confused Love

Chapter 1: Royalty

Ronaldo and I have been together since May 19th of 2014 and it has been an amazing two years with him. He has done nothing but make me happy and love him more each and every day. Our anniversary is in a few days and I want to give him something special. I already have his special gift and he'll be so happy. Life is just perfect right now.

Right now, I'm walking to class with Ronaldo with his arm wrapped around my waist. While walking, I notice Dylan Hill looking at us. I've known him since the 3rd grade but now we're seniors. He wasn't the best looking back in the day but he looks much better now. I don't have any feelings for him but he's a good person.

I'm sitting in class and all that I can think about is Ronaldo. Most relationships don't last over 3 months but we made it happen.

"Miss Marie, please pay attention to the board. Solve for "y". 4y+2=6x," Mr. Smith said.

"Y = 3/2x - 2," I answered proudly.

"You are correct but please pay attention."

"Yes sir."

At the end of class, I make my way to the cafeteria for lunch. Ronaldo and I have different lunches, so I eat with my friends. While I'm eating, Dylan sits next to me. He usually sits with his own friends but he's over here for some reason. Weird.

"Hey, Royalty. Is it okay if I sit here?"

"Of course, Dylan. How are you? We haven't spoken to each other since the 8th grade."

"I'm fine. I've just been so busy and stressed out ever since my parents got a divorce a few years ago. I'm living with my mom and I guess it's alright for now," Dylan explained looking a little sad.

"Well at least you're managing. I know divorce can be hard but it happens and we just have to deal with it. I'm just happy that you're doing okay."

"Thank you. I've been meaning to ask you something. Are you busy this weekend? I need a tutor in calculus and I know that you're really smart."

"Yeah I'm free on Saturday. What time will you be coming over?"

"4:30pm. I already know where you live since we live near each other."

"Alright. I'll write it down so that I'll remember. You don't have to worry about paying me back. I'll do it for free."

"Okay. Thank you for the help."

After we settled everything, we tell each other crazy stories about what has happened over years. It was really fun to talk to him. I didn't even notice my friends who were listening to our conversation. He's a good friend and we'll always be good friends.

After the bell rings, I make it to my 3rd block class, Psychology. Dylan and I have that class together so we decided to sit next to each other. I like psychology even though I don't plan on being a psychologist after high school.

Mr. Wright asked everyone to pick a partner and so Dylan and I partnered up. We're supposed to ask each other what we're thinking about. Dylan tells me that he's thinking about a large pizza from Papa John's which made me laugh. I told him that I'm thinking about a gift I'm giving to Ronaldo on our anniversary.

While we're doing the assignment, the bell for 2nd lunch (Ronaldo's lunch) rings. When he walked by my class and looked inside, he smiled until he saw Dylan and frown for some reason. Weird... is he jealous or something?

At the end of the day, I walk towards Ronaldo's car so that he can take me home. He usually waits outside his car but he's inside this time. Is something wrong?

I opened the door and hear him listening to the radio. Once I got in, he kissed me on the lips and we both smiled. I love him so much.

He drives us to In N Out for an after school snack. We talked about our day and we both listened to each other.

"Today, Dylan and I spoke to each other after 3 or 4 years. He asked me to tutor him in calculus this Saturday. Is that okay with you?"

"Yeah. It's good that my lovely girlfriend is willing to sacrifice her weekend to help someone who needs it."

"Thank you baby. And I can't wait for our anniversary next weekend. It'll be so fun. It has been 2 years and almost 6 months. We have our whole life together."

"And it will be a beautiful life."

After we eat, Ronaldo goes to the car and I use the restroom. It only took me 3 minutes so he didn't have to wait too long for me. He starts driving me home and we talk about our future on the way to my house.

We finally make it and he gives me a goodbye kiss. I walk into the house and make my way up the stairs to my room. When I opened my bookbag to take out my homework, I see a folded up letter sticking out of my calculus textbook. It's from Ronaldo. It says:

Dear Love,

I go by my word. I mean every word I tell you especially if the word is I love you. I take love so serious that's why I get hurt by love a lot. And once I fall in love with a person and she is in love with me too, I think of a future for us because to me, love is special. Love is something that should last you till death......but some people date and date and date and type I love you or say I love you and it just disgusts me.

I just have something to say/type. I think I'm a lucky guy I truly do I survived through so much and I found someone that gets how love should be. But I'm being honest guys like me are disappearing slowly. It's because girls break hearts and they live alone till they're 25 or 29 but at that age finding girls(women) is hard, so the good guys lives get destroyed from girls. If I date someone it's because I choose you out of a billions or trillions of girls because you had something special.....something that wasn't that same as the other girls. That's why I treat you like a queen because you won my heart over trillions of other girls and that should make you happy and feel like a winner.......and the thing is, we are slowly getting brought together.
But I'm a type of man, guy, boy whatever you want to tell me or call me if a man boy guy etc goes through pain for a girl he loves don't you think some girls should realize that? But I the type of guy no matter how much you hurt me I'm willing to stay loyal and suck the pain and forgive.........this hurts me more but I love you and I stay loyal no matter what because I love that person and that person is you 😘.

I really don't mind if you can't complete a promise it's okay but what I promise I mean it I can't live with my self if I fail a promise. But I have a promise...... I promise to support you till I die I would promise more but I can't I need you to promise me the same thing so I can truly complete it. I love you and that's all that really matters ❤

I'm just here to tell you that you're a winner. You won my heart. You've beaten every girl in the world to have my love. You've won a future with a person that truly loves you. I'm proud of you every day and time because I know how you survive with pain and it's amazing. I don't want you to be sad I want you to be happy every day. So I'm here for you any day and anytime 😘.

I hope you like it mmaa 😘 from your love Ronaldo 😘 I love you 😍❤

It's so beautiful. He's always there for me and it makes me happy. I make my way down the stairs to get one of our unused picture frames so that I can put the letter in it and put it on my wall. Once I hung it up, I took a picture of it and sent it to Ronaldo. He was so happy that I framed it.

It starts getting late and so I start getting ready for bed. As I'm laying in bed to fall asleep, I start thinking about Ronaldo and it makes me smile. Out of nowhere, Dylan goes through my mind and it confuses me. Why did he go through my mind? I ignore it and eventually fall asleep.
