____I'm an idiot.
I'm an absolute idiot.
That is all I've been telling myself this morning.
I didn't even listen to what she had to say, I just assumed the worst, so to make myself feel better I blamed it on a stupid prank.
After seeing her run off like that, I knew she wasn't going to tell me she wanted to stay friends.
I knew she likes me too.
Well, liked me. I'm not sure of what she thinks anymore.
"What do I do guppy?" I ask, tears in my eyes.
I let them come. I just sit in my room and cry until Alex gets home.
"Aaron!" He calls throughout the house.
He enters my room and immediately assumes the worst.
Funny, how people always do that, me Included.
I tell him everything and he acts sympathetic, but I'm sure he thinks I'm an idiot too.
"I'm an idiot." I confess, crying into my pillow. It's not very manly, but it's what came.
"No your not, well sorta, but you can fix this. You have to tell her the truth. You were worried about loosing your friendship with her answer so came up with that stupid lie. Is that true?"
I nod my head.
"Then tell her! Go! It's what she needs to hear, no question."
I smile, but shake my head.
"She needs space."
"She needs someone to chase her." Lauren walks in.
She sits next to me.
"Girls want the guy to chase them, tell them everything is okay, and know that they can trust them. That's all, she needs to know you care." Lauren smiles.
"Okay I'll go over to her house now." I smile.
"Thanks guys."

I hold the roses under one arm as I walk up to Ronis door.
I knock three times and wait, holding the flowers to my chest. Nessa answers the door.
"Aaron." She scowls.
"I don't think Roni wants to see you right now." She says.
"Please just give me five minutes, then you can kick me out. You can even eavesdrop if you want to." I plead.
She nods and I walk to Ronis room.
I knock.
"Come in." She sniffles.
When I walk in she looks up, alarmed, shocked to see me.
"Aaron?" She questions, as if I was a ghost.
"Can I explain myself?"
She nods, and sits up in her bed that is full of tissues, stuffed animals and cookie crumbs.
I take a seat next to her and hand her the roses.
She smiles.
"It wasn't a prank. I wanted to confess my feelings for a while but was scared of loosing the friendship we shared. Once I confessed and I heard your words, I assumed you were going to say something about not liking me in that way."
"I panicked, not wanting to loose our friendship, and created the 'prank' lie. When I saw you running, I knew that you weren't going to say what I thought you were going to. Were you?"
She shakes her head no.
"I like you Veronica, from the moment I laid eyes on you, we it I always thought you didn't want to be more than just friends. And I'm sorry, for making you feel like crap. I just wanted to talk to you, and I hope we can continue what we had." I smile.
"Aaron." She smiles, her eyes glazed over.
Man I hope she feels the same.
