Unnoticed Feelings (It's Just You And Me)

Getting to know him

   I felt a bit better that Chris was talking to me. It made the awkward feeling I had go away.   Although we did become friends,I became more intrigued by him. I was getting to know how life was for him was,how he was as a kid growing up and how everyone saw him. Every word he spoke,drew me more and more closer, wanting to know him.

  A day in school,when Ariana and Kaleb was at home and I was alone at school,he decided,when he saw me, that he'd hang out with me for the day,to get to know me and me to know him better. At first I was overly excited in my head,but I calmed myself down and chatted with him. He looked like he had a lot on his mind and I decided to comfort him as a friend and not an over obsessed girl for the day.

  I was looking for every possible way to comfort him as a new friend.

  BHe was cool, emotional,strong minded, caring, honest,smart and funny. Everything a girl could ever want in a real down to earth kind of guy and I was glad to have him as a friend.

   He admittedly said that he had a girlfriend before,but broke up with her,cause she only used him for money and whatever else she could take from him. He said that he was played like a pawn in her hands. He called himself foolish,to not realize that she was using him sooner,than too late.
  She took his former best friend away from him and turned him against him,so she could have him all to herself, to do the same thing to him,like how she did Chris. The guy said that he literally cried his eyes out for being played. He said that he was not good enough for anyone,that he was dumb,stupid and so caught up in the clouds that he didn't realize that people used to use him for their advantage .

  Everything he said about himself to me,made me wonder,how did he looked so stable and normal every time he passed by me. Was he holding it in? Or was he just trying to not let his emotional side show and have people worry about him?

  It was sad to see him like that,but I could understand what he went through and what he did to hold himself together. I got to see the real him and surprised enough for me,he actually opened up to me,even though we've been friends for like four or five days now.

   We hardly had classes cause of some conference meeting that most teachers went to,so we had lots of time to talk. He was honest through the whole conversation,but showed that he had some self-esteem problems to work out.

  "I understand what you went through and I get it!,life is tough and it never really goes the way we planned,but we have to walk through otherwise , we'd get stuck on our own obstacles we create! , Besides you're not the only one that when through a tough time...",I said, reassuring him.

   "You went through tough time s similar to mine?,how?,you sound too nice for that to happen to you!",he said ,in disbelief .

"Well, I've went through an identity crisis,caught my boyfriend cheating on me, went through a year of depression and a year of therapy from my mom! , Also I was bullied as a kid cause I used to wear glasses and look like a geek!, so I think that were both suffering from similar pasts that were hard to go through! ,And if you need a friend,you can trust me or Ariana, were both honest, secret keepers,and understand a lot of things due to experience,so you're safe with me!",I explained and reassured him.

  "I don't think you'd look bad in glasses,I think you'd look more cute with them!,and thanks for being a good friend to me although we've been friends for like four days!, To me, you're actually,cool to talk to and modest!",he remarked.

"Awe thanks! ( I said blushing a little), you're not bad yourself!, So why did you cover your real emotions up and acted like nothing was wrong?",I asked.

"Thanks!,I hid my emotions away, because I didn't want people to see the real me and judge me! ,And I had to play tough,to join the football team, cause coach wasn't looking for sobbing saplings like me, so I did what I needed to do and I got in!, I've done it so much that it's so easy to do!...",he answered, honestly.

"So do you mind having all those girls running after you,dreaming of you, screaming your name, wishing that they had you?",I questioned him.

"Not really!,I tell them no ,but they still persist to have me as their boyfriend!, It's flattering,but I'm not interested in any of them, they're too posh,get too excited near me, and always spy on me when I'm shirtless in the shower after the football game!,they invade my privacy way too much!",he replied.

   My eyes shifted from looking at him for a moment and began looking away for a sec,while whistling and twiddling with my thumbs, playing innocent,cause I'm one of the many girls that do that. Then I started to talk again..."So,what kind of girl are you into,do you have a type of girl you like or you have no type and is just waiting for the perfect one?",I asked, with curiosity.

  "Well I don't have a exact type of girl yet,but I'd like a girl who is smart, funny, entertaining,comforting,caring, pretty, addictive and has a great personality!",he answered,with honesty.

  "Wow!,("I know I'm not half of the girl that he's looking for,but still thankful for the friendship though,besides,how far can this friendship go?"...I said to myself), you're looking for a rare type, perfect girl,nice to hear!,I know you'll find the perfect one,even though that she might be in front of you!...",I reassured, by patting his shoulder,while we went to another class with no teacher, giving us time to talk more...
Lucky me!...
