Being His Number One [One-Shot]

    Hi everyone! My name's Candice Therese Dalls. I know my name sounds......weird. Well, not that weird as my personality. I'm 5'6 in height, has curly brown hair, big eyeglasses covering my eyes. I hate to admit it but uhmm......I'm not that slim and skinny just like my other classmates. I'm also not fat, I'm just chubby....just chubby.

I'm a typical college student. TYPICAL means being a  typical teenager. I have my crush for about.......7 years now. I have a crush on him since we're in highschool. He has this rugged look. Strong jawline, eagle-like eyes that can send shivers down your spine, he has a beautiful nose, and very deep dimples. His name? Owen Dale Anderson.

What do you think I'm doing right now?

I am secretly watching him from a distance. Guess what? He is really enjoying his bachelor life. Right at this moment, he is with another girl. Again. But wait!.........The girl is not just another girl. She's my sister!

I can feel my blood boiling and I think I'm gonna faint so I lean on the wall. Why is my sister dating Owen knowing that I really really like him? Is this some kind of a joke for her?

I was about to go after them when I felt someone grab my hand. I snap my head to my right and give that someone my 'I'm-gonna-kill-you' look.

"What's your problem Railey?!" I hissed as I saw my bestfriend

We've been good friends since gradeschool. Actually, we are partners in crime. She is very jolly, very realistic, she always cheers me up whenever I'm down. She's the legendary Railey Klaine Becker.

"You stole my line! What's your problem Candice?" she asked me.

She released my hand and make me come with her. Well, I have no choice but to follow her. She is quite dangerous if you make her angry.

We sat on the bench near the school's garden.

"C'mon, start your story." she said while crossing her hands over her chest.

"You know my story."I said as I give her a deadly glare.

"Okay. Just explain what happened earlier. You look pissed off." she said as she sipped her drink.

"Well, I just saw him.....You know who....with another girl." I started while holding the hem of my shirt.

"What's new?" she said full of sarcasm.

"He is with my sister."

"Okay--WHAT?!?! Your sister?! You mean, Coleen?" she asked.

I nodded.

"Oh hell!! Well now that's new. It's like eating your own death." she said and laugh

"Why are they dating? Knowing my sister, she's against dating." I said.

"Well, you've got to solve your problem by yourself."

"Railey!!"

After our conversation, I went straight to our house to confront my sister. I saw her in the kitchen counter preparing our dinner.

"Hey, you're early! Quite a surprise." she said.

"Coleen, can I ask you something?" I said as I lean on the counter.

"Are you dating Owen?" I asked. Hoping that she will answer me with a big NO. But instead of answeringy question, she just laugh at me.

"You're making me crazy Candice! Haha. We. Are. Not. Dating. Haha!"

She continue laughing and laughing and laughing. I rolled my eyes and headed upstairs. Ugh! Where will I find the answers?!?!

*******************

I walk down the hallway when I heard Railey's voice calling my name. I stopped and turn to face her.

"Happy birthday Candice!" she said while hugging me.

Oh crap! I forgot today's my birthday!

"Come with me. I have something special to show you. You're gonna love this!" she said and hold my hand.  We enter a room filled with banners saying "Happy Birthday Candice!".

"What's with all of this?" I turn around but I can't find Railey.

"Happy birthday Candice."

I stiffened as I heard that voice. I felt butterflies all over my stomach. If I'm not mistaken, it's his voice.

I slowly turn around and I felt my legs turned to jelly. Am I dreaming or is this for real? Right in front of me is the man of my dreams and daydreams. Owen Dale Anderson. Standing and smiling widely in front of me.

I saw my sister giggling beside him. I knotted my forehead as I saw her.

"Sorry Candice. I am not dating Owen. He beg me to organize all of this for you. I hope it's all worth it." she said and smiled.

Hell yeah! It is all worth it. I am shocked, surprised,happy......Ugh! I felt myself crying due to mix emotions in me. So this is real? I mean, he really organized these for me?

"Hey, don't cry sweetie. Truth is, I really like you since highschool. I'm just searching for the right timing." he said as he hold my hand.

My heart is so overwhelmed because of his confession. I believe, seven years of waiting is all worth it. Right?

"Candice sweetie, can you Be my number one?"
