He Fell In Love (Asa ButterField- FanFiction)

Chapter 23: 2000 Miles (Let It Snow)

(SUNDAY- 7:55AM)

Mary's P.O.V

so it was Sunday and I was packing up a few things for 3 weeks at Home where I grew up. Chloe was already left, left flight was leaving so early. she left like at 6am and I was alone as almost always. but I was happy to see my family again, their glee smile on their faces when they see me again, their only special daughter.

the door was open wide and I heard a lot of noise of teens passing by to go down stairs, people dragging their small luggage's on the ground with wheels rolling. even voices around the hallway and my room by the door. I already packed my clothes, coats, sweaters, scarfs, flats and socks even underclothes.

the window was sweating, filled with coldness from outside. I was almost ready but not leaving until the time was right to go. I woke up very early, to help Chloe pack up. and I took a long hot shower, I had more time to stay in my room. I was just waiting. I leave until 8:40am. my friends were all packing and leaving early. but I didn't know what time do they leave especially Asa.

I looked at the drawer on top and I saw the radio off. I wanted to hear Christmas songs. so I turn it on and it was already on the channel were people put tons and tons of Christmas Songs. even the popular ones. I volume it up and it was playing of my favorite songs 'Let It Snow'. I suddenly found out who sung the song and it was Michael Buble , in fact, he was one of my favorite singers around the world.  

when I heard his songs for the first time, I always hear some jazz stuff behind the music.. and I thought he likes jazz music and pop all together. I thought it was doltish but when my mother put of the song called 'it's a Beautiful day' on Christmas eve last year, my mother was dancing and I was just sitting there on the couch, nothing to do but play with my hands. then my mother told me to come and join with her and I didn't want her to be sad for me not joining with her. so I just went with her. we both danced and it was getting really fun and that's when I fell in love with his voice and his style all as one. my parents liked his music too....

I was just nodding my head, alone in the room hearing Michael Buble. I came near the window, the curtains open. I heard the knock on the door. I turned around and Asa by the door. I turn the volume low and took few steps to my bed where luggage was on top.

"Hey" Asa said

"Hi, Ace" I said..   oh shoot, I gave him a nickname.. too soon??

"when are you leaving?" he asked

"another 20mintues" I replied... I looked at the clock and it was already 8:28

"oh" that's all he said

"what about you?" I asked, zipping my luggage

"30mintues" Asa said

he was holding something behind his back and I didn't want to ask him what he has on his hand.

I was wearing my white long sleeves with dark blue jeans and a purple coat, with my winter hat on.

Asa was wearing his gray shirt with blue sweater and black jeans with his dark blue converse and mine flats.

to me, time seemed to go pretty fast and I believed it wasn't ...

I was looked up and smiled at Asa.  he was smiling to me too, smiling so bright as always.

"Mary, I want to tell you and give you something" he said, walking few small steps towards me

"Oh--" I heisted

"we have something in common, you know?" he asked

I can already hear my heart beat faster harder and the heat burning inside my body parts.

Asa's P.O.V

I knew me and Mary could be so amazing and I was right. I was about to leave for another long minutes and I wanted to see Mary before she leaves. when I saw her in her room, with the radio on and sung by my favorite artists Michael Buble ' Let it Snow'. she was so beautiful and yellow, I felt so many butterflies and tangling inside of my stomach.

I got her a present and I was prepare to give it to her and I wanted and needed to tell her what I feel about her. I knew it was time for me to tell her.

"you know, we have something in common, you know?" I asked, waiting her answer to come

"I can recall" she said.. she continued

"so what do you want to tell me?"

"just answer this last question, do you have anyone in your mind right now?" I said

"I don't know" she said

"Asa, I am not following" she said, her face and voice were confused

"um-- well you need to know something... I think you are lovely, beautiful and talented and amazing, I have an affection for you. Mary, do you--- " then someone stopped my track

"Mary, your Cab is here!" our English Teacher Ms. Greenwell was by the door

"Already!?" Mary was stunned

Ms. Greenwell nodded

"you better hurry" Greenwell said, she continued

"Asa, your cab is coming another 8 minutes, come on Mary"

Mary grabbed her luggage and looked at me, seems like for the last time

"see you later, Asa" she said

"But wait.... Mary" I said, hoping she would stay .. she couldn't

"sorry, I have to go.. bye, Asa" she said and waved

she walked out, carrying her light luggage, while Ms. Greenwell followed her out.

I looked at the present I wrapped up. now facing me. the box was red with golden ribbon and small like  a ring box. it was a necklace I bought just for her, it was half of heart, I already had  the other half on my neck . there was a word, when you put them together in magnets. it said 'Love' 

 'Lo/ve'  I had the 'LO' and Mary would had the 'VE' 

I was by the window, watching her get inside the cab and waving at Ms. Greenwell and then she drove away.

.......

"She's gone" I thought, it was like 2000 miles away from her or even more. I remember that she told me that she lived in Pennsylvania. I was going to be short miles away from the Performs Arts Academy.. but anyhow, it's very far and I didn't want her so far away from me.  

the snow was coming down, it got colder day by day. I looked at the sky and I whispered "outside under the purple sky diamonds in the snow, sparkle.. .I hear people singing, It felt like Christmas time" I remember reading  the lyrics early in the afternoon.

I looked around the room and I saw pictures of Mary with her family and even by herself.

she looked very pretty and lovely. I looked down and it was a notebook, I knew it was from Mary. I flipped to the first page, and it was her address from Pennsylvania. I took it and put it in my luggage. I stepped out of her room and closed the door.

Ms. Greenwell came and told me that my cab was here. and once I was coming home.. I had a plan to revealed my true affection for my beautiful Mary.
