dear mom,
cedric stared at me,
and before he could say anything,
i quickly apologized,
and ran out of the bathroom,
screaming out random words.
as i laid on cedric's bed,
i kept on thinking about earlier,
and how embarrassed i was.
after a few minutes,
i heard the door open up,
and in front of me was cedric,
who was wearing a pair of blue boxers,
with a band tee shirt.
and of course i was embarrassed,
so basically when cedric laid next to me,
and sent me a silly smile,
i could see his dimples,
and my cheeks flushing.
"so uh hey."
he sheepishly said.
"so ann..."
i gave him a suspicious look.
"why were you on standing on the edge of the window?"
he gives me a serious look.
"you saw the news?"
i asked him.
"yeah."
"so you saw the news about aaron?
and how he's dead,
and how the letter said "I'm sorry Ann."
i was becoming irritated,
it was my fault that aaron committed suicide.
"i did ann,
it's not your fault alright.
it never was your fault ann."
he was becoming serious now.
i just wanted to sleep,
i didn't like hearing the whole prep talk,
i know it's my fault,
i know that aaron's absence was because of his death.
"i'm tired.
night cedric."
i basically turned to my side,
and closed my eyes,
as i could hear cedric sigh,
before i felt his arms wrap around me.
it's my fault.
love,
ann
a quick thought
