I was chilling on my bed when my phone buzzed. It's from Daniel. He's trying to get me a boyfriend since I don't have one. I'm kinda not in mood to have a relationship. Last time I was in relationship was abot 1.5 years ago. My boyfriend we literally ex boyfriend was cheating on with my bestfriend. Tragic right.

"I've arranged a dinner tonight with Nick"
"What? Do you mean by dinner is our date?" I reply
"Yeah. I know it will be fun trust me"
"He doesn't like me in that way" I click send.
"Don't say that! Just wear something nice and be ready by 6".

I sigh. I don't like him and I know he likes me as friends, just friends.
 
*Skip time, at 6*
I already dressed into something nice but not too fancy. Daniel just text me, he's in front of my apartment so I ran a little to his car.
 
"Hey guys" I greet Nick and Daniel as I get into Daniel's car .
"Hey" Nick greet me back.
 
I take a sit next to Nick because there are some bags stuff on the front seat. I bet Daniel make it up so I have to sit next to Nick. The car ride was awkward. But Daniel always try to make a conversation even he was driving. Finally arrived at the restaurant.
 
"I have reservation, for two tables" Daniel say to the waiter.
"Two tables for Mr. Seavey?" The waiter asked.
Daniel nodded.
"This way sir"

We followed the waiter.
I walk beside Nick awkwardly. I fasten my walk and grab Daniel's hand.

"Wait. Why did you order two tables?" I whispered not wanting Nick hear us.
"One table for me. And one for you and Nick" he grin proudly.
"What the heck. No! Cancel one table or I'll go" I treathened him.
"Okay okay" Then he talk to the waiter.
 
We take a sit and start a small chat. Daniel always being the one who tried to make us talk. I think he's trying too hard. I can say Nick is uncomfortable. How can he doesn't notice it?
 
After we finished our food, Daniel pay it and drop Nick to his apartment. Here I am. Just Daniel and I in the car. It's time to tell him to stop all of this.
 
"Danny..."
"Yeah?" He kept his eyes on the road.
"No offense. But I think you're trying too hard. And I think you should stop"
"Why? You guys look cute together"
"Didn't you see how Nick sit uncomfortable?"
"Maybe because he likes you!"
 
Great! Now we're arguing. I don't like to arguing at my friends.

"Listen Dan... I don't like arguing. And maybe this is the time to tell you my feelings. I... I like someone else" I said in shaking voice. Not sure how he will react.
 
"What? What you didn't tell me earlier?" This time, he looked at me
"I'm just afraid" I almost whispering.
"Who's that lucky guy?" he asked me softly.
 "I... I can't tell you. I hope I can but I just can't"
"Why you can't? You always tell me everything"
"Because... If the feeling is mutual... Just forgot it" I sigh.
"He wouldn't know right. Come on tell me" he insist.
"It's you. It's always been you, Daniel" I look down.

I can tell that Daniel is shocked. He opened his mouth but no word come out.

"I... I'm sorry. I shouldn't have told you" I can't look him.
"No. I'm the one should say sorry to you. I'm sorry for not notice it" he grab my hand.

I push it away because I know he doesn't like me back and he hold my hand to comfort me. I hate myself right now. Why did I tell him. It will broke our friendship and I can't be around him. Well good I'm not around him so I'll try to move on. But can I move on? I love this kid very much. I never feel like this before. The feeling is so strong.

"It's ok, Dan"
"I'm sorry to say this but..." he let out a sigh and continue "I think it's better if we keep being friends. I hope you're understand"

I know it. I just nodded try to keep my tears in my eyes but I can't. His words break my heart. Every word.

"Don't cry" he said as he wipe my tears gently.

I give the best smile I can make a.k.a fake smile :)

"Come on don't cry. It's  a prank. I like you, y/n. I love you" he laugh.

I look at him with wide eyes, not believing what I just heard.

"It's just a prank. I love you. Actually I'm kinda jealous seeing  you and Nick. I set it up to help me not falling for you, deeper each day. Because I know you look at me as friend. I'm sorry"

I give him a "seriously" look at him. Then we burst into laugh. He look at in my eyes, deeply. I look at his blue eyes. He lean closer. He grab my face, jolt of electric. He kiss me passionately. I feel fireworks on my stomach exploding. I'm in love with my matchmaker.
