I feel like I am too obvious when I get close to him. So that's why I don't want to be friend with him. That's what I always had in mind, until one day.
We had this activity that our teacher gave us. And we had to do it in pairs, but unfortunately, We don't get to pick our pair, our teacher gets to do it.
And to my dismay, I was paired with him.
During the time when we need to plan our performance, I feel so awkward around him. And he looks so calm, well obviously because he doesn't have that something towards me. I feel so uncomfortable, but I'm very happy.
Right after class, I approached Tania.
She asked me why am I smiling, but of course I didn't tell her about him. I just told her I'm happy that today's Friday. I think I convinced her.
Day or maybe weeks after our pair activity, the most unexpected thing happened, we became friends. I can't believe what was happening or I can't even tell how it happened.
He started going with Tania and me to the cafeteria, but he and Tania aren't really close friends.
I also found out that the other boys in our class is teasing him about having a crush on one of our classmates who's name is Daphne. I also tease him about her even though it hurts. I just do it so that my attraction to him won't be obvious to anyone, especially to my best friend, she knows me too well.
And believe it or not, he also tease me on Tyler, one of my guy friends, though not close but just friends. He thinks I have a crush on him. *sigh* If only he knew.
Then there was one time that when I was talking to him when Tania approached me. And witnessed how he teases me about Tyler. That was the time when Tania suspects something about me and Chazz because she knew 100% that I don't have a thing for Tyler. She knows me too well and I think she can see the way I look at Chazz.
Then starting that day, she kept on pushing me to admit I like him, but I never did. Tania'a not the type of girl who tells a guy her friend has a crush on him. I trust her, but I don't trust my feelings that well.
Then after that Chazz and I hangout sometimes with friends and sometimes he texts me. He even follow me on Twitter, so of course, I followed him back.
Some of our friends seem to notice too since they started teasing us about each other. It feels really awkward, even though I like him, I still feel awkward when our friends tease us, especially when the two of us is around.
But for him, I think it's just no big deal, never did he knew what effect it brought me. The best days of my life are the days with him.
He's still my inspiration, he always have been. Which is great because my grades are increasing.
I still have doubts about how I truly feel. I don't even know why and I can't explain?
