I buried my head in my pillow in sorrow. Tears started to roll down on my cheeks. I just wanted to stay in this room forever and read all my books until I died.

Keys jangling as Nathan opened the door. Kyle turned his attention to him,

"You owe me" Nathan said.

"How is she?" Kyle asked anxiously.

"If are so curious then talk to her" Nathan suggested.

"Forget it then" He said diverting his attention back to the TV.

"Noah didn't take her back to her dorm" Nathan said with a smile.

"What?" Kyle hollered.

"Kyle, she is as much of a mess as you are. She told me she and Noah didn't work out" Nathan confessed.

"Why should I care?" Kyle shot back, diverting his attention back to the intense FIFA match.

"Quit being stubborn and just ask her out for gosh sake" Nathan responded as he went to his room.

Awaken by the sun's calling. I looked at myself in the mirror. My hair was frizzy. My dark circles dragging all the way down to my nose. My eyes puffy from last night. I wore a hoodie and a pair of distressed jeans.

I saw Kyle walking into the room. Our eyes met, however he quickly broke the glance and sat down, rows below me.

This went on for several days. Days of emptiness. Days of regret. I would be out with my other friends but it wouldn't be the same.

Rather than studying in the library, I fell asleep. A sudden slam of books instantaneously woke me up.

"Dude!" I yelled turning to look at Nathan.

"Can we talk?" He asked.

"Are you going to talk to me about Kyle?" I asked sternly.

"Yes, but seriously I can't get it out of him, I need to get it out of you" Nathan explained.

"I know he is being cold and everything but it doesn't mean anything. He is still crazy in love with since forever, he even told me yesterday to make sure you got in safely to your dorm" He confessed.

"He doesn't want anything to do with me, I can't just confess to him if he doesn't like me or want to talk to me" I responded.

"Wait you like him too? OH MY GOSH I KNEW IT AND HE DIDN'T BELIEVE ME" Nathan exclaimed. I shot him a glare.

"Ok ok back to the point, just talk to him, it's Kyle, he will hear you out if you make him" he continued.

The trees were now starting to exhibit their warm coloured appearance. My fingers nervously intertwined with one another. Continuing to pace back and forth.

"You wanted to talk to me?" Kyle said. I nodded.

"Well, say whatever you have to say" he said impatiently.

"I-I don't know what to say honestly" I said nervously. He rolled his eyes and attempted to walk away.

"I LIKE YOU OK?" I said as I grabbed his arm to stop him from leaving. He looked at me with a confused look.

I gulped nervously, my heart pounding heavily with each stutter and word.

"Since you aren't gonna do it, then I will. Kyle Yang, w-will y-you go out with me?" I stuttered, anxiously waiting for him to respond.

"Are you being for real right now?" He asked.

"Is that even a question? Of course I'm being real, I'm so nervous right now" I yelled at him.

"You like me? YOU ACTUALLY LIKE ME" He repeated in disbelief.

"Yes, yes, don't be so loud, there are professors walking by" I said.

"If you don't want to go out with me, it's fine, I'll understand if you don't, we can be just fri-" I was cut off as he crushed his lips against mine. He pulled away grinning cheekily.

"Does that answer your question?" He said.

"You didn't even let me finish what I said" I raged as I hit him on the forehead. He placed another quick peck on the lips.

"You have no idea how I've been waiting to do that" he said.

"Now I'm really hungry, I want dumplings" I whined.

"Ok, you are buying them for me" He said walking off,

"Hey!! Why me?" I said chasing up to him.

"You made me really mad" he said.

"You made me cry so much" I retaliated.

He just smiled and intertwined his fingers with mine.
