dear ivo,

ty and i are becoming better friends now. i don't know, i guess i decided to forgive him. it wasn't easy, let me tell you that, but it was worth it.

we went to the movies saturday. i saw you and carine there in the very back row. you guys were getting too close for my liking.

"hey, don't let them get to you."

i turned to ty. i just realized i was crying.

"i'm fine." i wiped a tear away. why would i cry?

ty wrapped an arm around my shoulders. "yeah, and i'm the queen of england."

"if you're the queen then i must be the king."

"and that must mean that.... we're married!" ty said in a fake girly voice, jumping up and down in his seat.

i laughed. "yeah, yeah okay."

ty and i lingered in the movie theatre when the movie was over. i didn't want to go home. we were about to go get some popcorn just to eat when i heard laughter.

i looked back and saw it was you and carine. my heart sank. you guys looked so happy together. i instantly felt something bloom in my chest.

jealousy.

why i would feel jealous, i have no idea. your eyes met mine and we locked gazes. neither of us turned away. carine was saying something to you, laughing loudly but you paid her no attention.

my heart started beating faster when your tongue shot out and wet your bottom lip. i wanted to kiss you so badly right then. just to have the feel of those full pink lips on mine would be amazing.

i broke away first. when i looked around, ty had a knowing smirk on his face and carine just looked shocked. she stomped away from us.

but you didn't go after her. you just stood there, staring at me as if you saw me for the first time.

i gazed into your eyes again and saw that your eyes dropped to look at my lips. a shiver ran through me. then you walked away.

"well, that was weird," ty said.

i nodded. it was, indeed. it wasn't until we were almost at my house when i realized something,

i was starting to fall for you, ivo.

truly, teddy.
