Over the course of a couple of months, I have tried to talk to him through call and text messages. I remember the exact date when we made up because it was the day of my prom and he was with his girlfriend, Faye.
'Can we talk,' I said.
'I thought you hated me,' he replied
'I could never hate you,' I told him.
And that part is true because no matter how much he has hurt me, I will probably always care about him.
All I have ever wanted was for someone to see the real me and all I wish for is to not be lonely anymore.
I know that nothing will ever happen between us and as much as it pains me, I have accepted it. After prom, we have started to talk a lot more and I was happy because we worked through a lot of issues. It was getting closer to the end of the school year and after that, I don't know if we were going to stay in touch but I hope we do.
There are times when I am glad that we never got together because, in the end, we get to stay in each other's lives for the time being.
In a few months, I will be starting college and maybe I would be able to move on.
