It was Saturday, 7PM. April was already waiting for Grayson to come back from his evening jog. With her hands supporting her head and her elbows on the windowsill, she stares at the end of the street, waiting for him to run.
07.07, where is he? Normally he would've already been past her house! Oh, there he is. He's doing a cartwheel, followed by a flip. How she wish she could do that. Both Ethan and Grayson offered her to teach her, but shescared.
When Grayson landed back on his feet, he smiles proudly and glances around if anyone saw him, but there was no one to be seen. Just when he was about to run again, he noticed someone in front of a window, and when he looked closer, he noticed the weird knot that only April would do whenever she was annoyed with her hair. He couldn't see her face, but he knew for a fact that it was her, so he smirked and pointed at her before running the last part to his house.
April's heart fluttered out of shame and love as she saw him point at her, making her fall backwards as he started running. She let herself lay on the floor to stare at the ceiling. Why do I have to have feelings for him? She sighed. Sure, he's a good guy and pretty good looking, but he was also one of her best friends. Maybe I'm making myself believe it? She sighed again as she got up to walk to her desk where her phone lit up.
Gracie🌼 What do you think about my cartwheel and flip?
She rolled her eyes and chuckled as she unlocked her phone to reply.
Me Bad, you should practice more on your legwork
Gracie🌼 Do you even know what your saying?
The lack of knowledge about sports was already known by Grayson. Although she liked certain sports, she didn't know much about it. He knows how much she likes to practice football with Ethan and him, she always has so much energy. They always wonder where she got it, and when they would ask, she'd answer: 'I don't know actually'.
They texted away for another few minutes, which turned into hours. One minute they were talking about sports, and the next minute about how paper is made. They both had to surpress a laughter every now and then, but they always fail miserably.
Eventually they fell asleep, and Sunday has come. April was awake earlier today, at 7AM. Her mind felt like exploding, so did her heart. The idea of letting Grayson know what she felt bottled up in her mind, but how could she do it anonymously? A small voice warned her to not reveal all at ones, that's when the idea of leaving notes pops up. It's not only anonymous, but it would also make a romantic story for in the future.
With the idea in mind, she jumped out of her bed and plopped down into her chair. She knows that Grayson knows her messy handwriting too well, so she must type it, or else he would know immediately.
Your smile brightens my day;)
Nothing too creepy, nothing suspicious, but now, what does she do with it? It's sunday, so he would go to the park with Ethan to practice football.. Right! There's one specific tree where they would put their stuff and rest, and Grayson always sits in the middle. I'll put it there. She smiled to herself.
The bell rings at 12.30PM exact. April almost flew down the stairs, with the sticky note in her phone case. Before the twins would play, they stretch themselves and April would gulp some water before grabbyong the ball, so when they will stretch, she would put the sticky note on Grayson's bag.
After practice, they all went home. Grayson was just emptying his back until he noticed a purple sticky note faling onto his bed. His brows moved to eqch other into a furrow as he picked up the small piece of paper and read it.
Your smile brightens my day;)
As weird as it may looked, it made him smile, but was it for him? And who did it anyway? He decided to put it on his night stand and to not think much about it. The sweet signature could be from a stranger, or whatsoever.
Me I found a weird note in my bag Saying my smile brightens someones day Weird
He sent to April, who immediately opened the message. Her heart tightened at the words, he thinks it's weird. Okay, maybe it is, but she couldn't keep her feelings for herself anymore, she really needed to let it go somewhere. I'll proceed anyway.
