A reason

a keeper

'Jowww, girl, you look just amaziiingggg. Where is all that white skin. jeez girl.' Meet Delano, in my life since the first day I was borned. 3 years older than me, has an high ego, wich you will understand in a few seconds.

'Okay, shut up, just tell me what you did this summer because that is clearly what you want to say.'                                                                                                                                                                                    'Well, now you are asking, I do look very good don't I? I went to.... hawaï my dear.' I did say he had an enormous ego right?

'A lot of sun I assume?'

'Oh, Rose, did I say "a lot"?' And here he goes again. 'I meant 24/7, always sun, never a bit of shadow.'

'well that is very nice for you delano, but please can you shut up, I don't wanna hear another word of bullshit, I just know too many languages my head is gonna explode.'

'ugh, bitch.'

'Oh that is me, ofcourse, duuuh, but shouldn't you go to class,  honey.'

'U should cry actually because it is my last year, I don't think you will survive without me.'

'Oh, Delano, ofcourse I would cry.' Wait for it, just wait.

'U better.'

'Crying... because of happiness, love you, see ya later.'

So let me explain some things. Our parents are like really good friends so when I was born she came to visit with Delano. Our parents were talking about my first word or first actual smile. U know the baby stuff, right? One week not specifically but around that time, my mom's friend came to visit me again, with Delano, again, and then it happened, my first smile, to Delano. It was something special I guess, I mean we are still celebrating "The day Rose smiled for the first time to Delano" so yeah very special. We became good friends, best friends, eventually he came out as gay, I was the first one to know, we talked, an intire night to be specific, about how he is going to tell his parents and friends. I told him I had my period, we again talked an entire night about how I needed to be safe now around boys, always carrying sanitary pad and stuff like that. I told him who my first crush was, he told his, at a certain point we fell in love with the same guy, don't overthink that please. WHat I am sayins is, we have been there for each other for like our whole entire life, cool right? So yeah most of our talks are like those, but we love each other (not in an romantical way) he is really family to me, and probably to my sister, mom and dad too. An unfair thing is, he had more boyfriends than me, and when we were 7 we started this rule when I would turn 18, the person with the most boyfriends can go to coachella, that very expensive concert we both love, with the cost of the loser. So yeah I eally do NOT wanna lose, you get me?

'Hey Rose, woah you look good, how are you?' Okay stop, this is not an high ass ego person who I have known for my entire life, it is my crush since the beginning I started loving people. Our only conversations were; 'oh uhm, I'm sorry' 'It's nothing' or 'Do i need to help?' 'No I'm good thanks.' So actually no conversation at all, I always shut down the minute I see him, and also now.

'U, uhm good, I think, u look bea, I mean good too.' *shut down of my brain*

'Thanks, hey, we actually don't know each other that good, so maybe we can do something fun after school, just us.'

'W, what do you mean because there can be a million things you mean right now without s..' *again a shut down*

'Rose, I just want to get to know you better, if that is okay?'

'Uh yeah sure, but no but uhm I don't know if I am free I need to check it first.' *High chance of cardiac arrest*

'Okay here is my number, please let me know before school ends, see you then I hope.'

Is it just me or did he ask me out? I need to send this to Delano, he would even more freak out.
