A Love Story

A Love Story- Part 48

I felt a light tap on my shoulder. I slowly turned around and noticed it was Reece. I rolled my eyes at him and looked at the blades of grass. 'Go away, Reece.' I grunted. 'Alice.. Wait let m-' 'NO!' I shouted back. I quickly got up from the bench and pushed him away from me. 'So that's why you haven't been coming to my house for the past week, you've been to busy with this girl!' I cried. He tried to hug me but I pushed him away from me again. 'Alice! Please.. Just listen to me!' He frowned. 'I don't want to listen to your stupid lies!' I snapped. More tears ran down my face. I closed my eyes for a few seconds then opened it again. I looked around me and noticed a couple of people staring at us. I then looked at Reece again and he just frowned at me. I thumped him on the chest and shouted, 'You know what?! I'm not even meant to be feeling like this.' I breathed heavily, 'I have no right.. Because we're not even dating. I don't even know why I feel like this!' I shouted. He looked at me with a straight face. After a few seconds a faint smile appeared on his face then eventually he gave out a loud laugh. I thumped him again, 'What the hell is wrong with you?' I frowned. He laughed even louder and picked me up from the ground. He spun me around in a circle and continued laughing. 'Put me down!' I laughed. After a few seconds he placed me back down on the ground, 'So you do love me! Don't even deny it. It's obvious.' He winked. There was a moment of silence but I gave in, 'Fine! I'm so freaking in love with you.' I laughed, 'But I am stupid to love you. You don't love me back.' I rolled my eyes at him and stared at a daisy on the ground. He placed his finger on my chin and I looked up at him. He faintly smiled at me then said, 'She's my best friend. I haven't seen her in ten years. In fact, I've told her so much about you she literally knows your whole life.' He smiled, 'No kidding.' I raised my eyebrow at him still not convinced. 'Also...' He knelt down on his knee and grabbed something from his pocket. 'She's the reason why I'm doing this...' He opened a grey box with a bl@ck ribbon that decorated it. Inside was the prettiest ring I've ever seen. He breathed softly and smiled, 'Will you marry me?'
