Bianca & Adore / their story

10. Confessions

Adore's pov

"Tell me about it!", Dela pleaded exited. "No that was a bad idea. Forget it please. Lets go to sleep." I quickly put the covers over my head and as quick I pulled them over as quick Ben pulled them down again. "Nuh uh, honey. You won't get away that easy. Tell me who it is." "I can't", I panicked. "Aha so I know this person!", Ben shouted triumphantly.
"Okay, yes. You know him ...", I buried my face in my hands. I just wanted to dissapear right now. "Awww" Ben hugged me. "Its okay, don't look so embaressed! You can't change your feelings!" A tear escaped my eye. Shit. I can't cry right now! I'm such a crybaby!, I thought. "Noo please don't cry, cutie!", Dela pleaded and hugged me tighter again. "Talk about it. It'll help."

I sat up. Still sobbing. "I just ... I really like this person I know he probably will never ever like me back and it hurts. He doesnt do 'feelings'. I mean- he's always nice to me, even if he isnt to others but ... He will never- he'll never know what I feel or return my feelings." I was bawling my eyes out and Ben wiped my tears while stroking my hand with his thumb. "It'll be okay. If he doesnt like you, he's not worth it anyways, okay? You're perfect Adore. Who doesnt see that is simply either stupid or blind."
"Thank you.", I said. Then he glaced at me raising an eyebrow: "But please don't tell me you have a crush on me?", he laughed. "No, dummy!",  I joined between my sobs.

"So back to the topic. Tell me who It is. I mean, I'm pretty sure I have a suspicion who it is, but I want to hear it from you.", he said.
"Who do you think it is?", I asked. "You tell me. It'll help you to feel better once you voiced it."
I paused. Do I really want to tell him? There's no turning back once I did. But I can trust him. Whatever, I'll just get through with it.

"Its- its Roy." "I knew it!" Ben proudly clapped his hands together. I still was embaresst, irretated and heartbroken. He noticed and pulled me into another hug. "Hey Danny, Its okay. Tell him what you feel. It'll work out." "I can't just tell him!", I shouted upset. "He will never talk to me again! It'll be weird! And we know each other only since a few months!" "Okay then hang out with him a few more weeks. Spy a little. Ask him if he likes someone. Play truth or dare. Dare him to kiss you." "Wow Ben I can't just do that! Thats stupid and so damn obvious!" This was pointless. I can never tell him. And I never will.

By now it was 6am and we decided to finally go to sleep when it knocked on the door. Who could it be so late at night? Dela and I exchanged questioning looks and I got up to open the door.

It was Roy.
