Till Dawn

Decision

"Wait WHAT! A Girlfriend? Why?" I questioned while feeling Confused, Surprised, and I felt dumb for not getting it with all those hints. "Yep, I mean you've been single your whole life. And I know that a lot of girls are interested. I mean you smart, Handsome (maybe), nice and caring. And you can do house work. You're almost the perfect husband but you're still 14 so being a boyfriend should be great." She said in a cheery and positive manner. "I'm flattered but you already know me. I am a person who can't approach people unless I need to. I'm also considered a social outcast, well in the eyes of many. I don't even know how to react or treat a girl. I mean you're the only female friend I have, well in the area. So how can I even be a decent boyfriend?" I said in a way that would trigger a debate but I had no intention on participating in one. "Well that's easy. Just be yourself" She replied. If this was a debate, she could've easy won because of her experience with society. But what does she mean by be myself? I don't understand but I said "Well I'll think about it" without even thinking. I was really confused. I wanted to ask advice from Jay but I can't reach him. Ohh I have an Idea. Why don't I just ask someone who has experience with this kind of relationship? But the problem is..... I barely know anyone who has or had a relationship. Well I guess that leaves me to my final option. Lie in bed and think about it. I want to know the pros and the cons. Let's see pros..... I can observe Clive or when we go on double dates, I can finally find someone who likes me for who I am and have a romantic relationship with them, I can experience something new, and.... I can't think of anymore. Next is Cons..... Fail so much and I go into depression, Barely have time for studies and some friends, Experience heartbreak,.... That might be it. Ohh wait I forgot about the Clive plan. Holy Crap there's so much stuff going on. No I need to focus on the girlfriend thing cuz I might need it but...but...but... "Agh! What am I going to do?!" Oops that just came out. Well I need a walk. It's still 7:30 anyway so I can come back by 8 or so. I was walking and didn't notice that my legs were about to break down. So I looked for the nearest bench and sat down. A Red Haired girl sat beside me. "You looked depressed" She said out of nowhere. I was thinking of just saying "Nah, I'm Fine" but for some weird reason I felt like I could trust her so I explained the situation. "Well, that a handful. You seem to have a lot more problems than you should" She said in a slightly mature way "Why don't you just do it. I mean nothing really bad can happen. I mean that life for yah. I kinda faced a similar case before so yeah. Anyways, don't be afraid. You Decision might affect the situation but it will affect your life at some point, so do what you think is right. Well I need to go so good luck" She said and stood and ran. Oops, I forgot to ask her name but I think I have my decision. So I called Ellen and asked "Ellen are you free tomorrow?" "Yeah why?" She replied. "Well let's go find me a girlfriend tomorrow. Alright?" This is my Decision.

A Date?

It's Friday and the sun isn't that angry today. It's a great day to relax outside. Well relaxing outside isn't really my thing but still. I am currently waiting for Ellen. Today will either go really good or bad. Finding a girlfriend isn't really looking for one at places or anything like that, it's about finding the right one automatically not looking for one in a mall or town. Well that's what I know but it looks like Ellen has some sort of plan so I trust her I guess. While I sit on the park bench a girl was waving to my direction. I wave back, assuming that it was Ellen but as she got closer... "Heyo! You're William right?" She suddenly said in a manner that tells me that I should know her but I don't, so I try to act it off and said "Yeaaah.... Ummm" "Ohh! Sorry, I didn't really introduce myself. My names Rena, I'm one of Ellen's best friends." Wait a sec. I where have I heard that name before... Ohh!, She's the top 1 student on our batch. "Ohh, I'm William, but I assume that you already know that." I responded with a slight chuckle, Hmmmm... This seems suspicious. Why would Ellen invite one of her best friends to our current plan. As I say or think of that I suddenly realize the plan. Ellen you sneaky little.... Well I can't really blame her for this, since she is also doing this for me. But I wonder, what will she say to me when she comes. *(music) buzz . Ohh my cellphones ringing. As I try to reach my phone out of my pocket the music stopped. Hmm let's see, who called me. *No Messages. I could've sworn that my ringtone just played. Then I notice that Rena just hang up from her conversation on the phone. Wait, when did she start talking with someone? "Sorry bout that, Ellen just called. She said she couldn't make it. Well I guess we have to cancel this since our host is not here." She said with a slightly disappointed tone. I start to read the situation and understand Ellen's plan, so I tried to just improvise and said "Well, we could still continue without our host. It kinda seems like you were looking forward to this thing, so why don't we just hang out without Ellen. And besides, knowing Ellen, she would probably be sad if she realized that she's the reason that this got canceled. So why don't we just go on" I said without even thinking and analyzing a single word, when I said that a small but visible blush was present on Rena's face. She smiled in a way that I thought of as cute. "Ok, why not. I mean, I don't really have anything else planned for today." She said in a slightly excited and embarrassed way. I understand since I said some stuff that would be expected to come out from a protagonist in a romance anime. Then I realized and said "Did Ellen tell you the destinations for our little outing? She kinda didn't tell me." I'm trying to improvise as much as I could right now. "Well, same here. She said it was going to be a surprise." She replied. I think I know what she meant by "surprise". Well now we need to go somewhere. "So where do you wanna go first?" I asked. I was able to mask of the embarrassment. "Well I don't really know. I don't really go out that often." She replied in a way that tells me that I should decide. "Why don't we go watch a movie or something? I think there's something interesting that's airing." I suggested with a slice of doubt since I don't really know the movies that are currently airing. "Alright, why not?" She replied with a spice of excitement. While we were walking to the cinema, I realize that we aren't really talking that much. I was about to break the silence and bring up something to talk about but she beat me to it and said "Ummm... do you go to the cinemas often?" Hmmm.. that's an odd question but I still responded "Nope, I don't really go out that much. Well considering that I don't really have that much friends, I think it's normal for me not to go as often as other people do." I replied without realizing that, I just admitted that I don't have that much friends. Well it made her laugh. "Sorry, sorry.... Well I can relate to that. Ellen is the only real friend I have." She said with a sincerely but saying that kinda pulled the mood to a more depressing point. I just don't understand why I lower my guard. "Ohh sorry. Didn't really mean t bring down the mood" She said while smiling. Wow, I impressed on how fast she could read the mood but I can't believe that one of the model students at school, actually don' have that much friends. It got my curiosity so I responded "Don't worry bout it. But I'm kinda curious, why don't you have more friends. If it's okay to ask" I asked and I see that she was surprised. She drops the smile on her face. She tries to mask her depressed face but fails. I feel like an idiot now for asking such personal question. Silence filled he space between us as we walk to the cinemas. I gave up on getting an answer but I understand why though so it's all good. But she responded. I didn't really expect this but she said "Because I'm scared" .
