" How's life going? " Charlie asked me while poking his fries into his ice cream
" Dad wants me to marry Dylan Ryder to merge our companies together and whatever " I said and rolled my eyes while poking my fries into my ice cream as well
" Isn't that good? " Charlie asked excited
" You sound more excited than I am. You want to marry him for me? "
" Sure! " Charlie said as he shrugged his shoulders
I rolled my eyes and started stabbing my ice cream when I realized that Charlie is going to be talking about his new crush
" Did you know that she is the cutest thing on earth? "
I nodded in reply
" But recently, when I message her, she doesn't reply. When I talk to her, she ignores me " Charlie stated, sadness in his voice
" Recently.. Something sad happened to me " Charlie continued while I nodded my head urging him to go on while shoving a spoonful of ice cream in my mouth
" What happened? " I asked curiously while still shoving the spoon in my mouth
" She.. She's engaged " He said and I dropped my spoon.
Charlie likes me?
I looked up to see him looking down at me, admiration showing in his facial expression. I gulped down my saliva as my hand grows sweatty
" Er.. Charlie? "
" She's beautiful " Charlie added while still looking at me
He has never done this before. We have been friends since we were diapers
" Are you okay, Charlie? " I asked him while putting my hand on his arm. He shakes his head slowly. I watched his head go to the left then to the right repeatedly
" I like you. " He blurted out and I suddenly grew conscious. Did I have ice cream on the side of my lips? Do I have french fries stuck in my teeth?
Just as I thought about the ice cream. Charlie lifted up his hand and used his index finger to wipe the corner of my lips.
" Charlie? What's wrong with you? You were find a minute ago! "
" I can't and won't see you engaged with someone else other than me. I won't. " Charlie shouted making me jump before slamming his hands on the table and standing up
" Charleston Marlie Jackson! What's wrong with you? " I shouted back at him as I stood up and crossed my arms against my chest
" What's wrong with me? What's wrong with you? I like you. I liked you for awhile now. How dare you agree to a marriage just to merge your companies? How dare you just shove me to the side? How dare you leave me? " Charlie shouted making me flinch visibly.
" I.. I have no choice, Charlie. You have to believe me.. I just want us to remain as friends. Can we.. Can we remain as best friends? "
" No. No, never in a million years. I will always hold you heart in my hands. I will never let you go. I don't want to let you go. Not now, not in my life time. "
" Charlies. I'm getting married the week after next week. I'm sorry " I apologized and attempted to leave but his hand sprang out and grabbed my wrist
" You always have a choice, Rose. It is whether you want to take it or not. I will always be here. I will get you, not today, maybe tomorrow. "
I looked down at his hand that was still grabbing my wrist and shook his hand off
" You know I only see you as my brother. We both agreed that we cannot have feelings towards each other. You know that! " I said back while throwing my hands forcefully down once again to state my point
" I want to be more than your friend. " Charlie says
" You want to be my best friend? "
" I want to be your boyfriend. " He stated bluntly
" Look. " I sigh, " Charlie, Charlie please. There are many many girls out there who would love to be your girlfriend. But that girl is not me. I have done embarrassing stuff in front of you. Heck. I even farted in front of you and asked you to smell it. If I be your girlfriend now. Then I'll be embarrassed "
" I don't want someone that is shy in front of me. I want you. You are very perfect to me "
I grabbed his hand and pulled him outside as I realized that there are more than 100 pairs of eyes staring at us fighting
I pulled up my shirt a little bit and turned to the side
I heard a gasp
A/N
hello :)
I know the story has a lot of dialogs but that is how I want my characters to express themselves.
Why do you think he gasped?

Q: If you could have any super power in the world. What would you like your super power to be?
