True To Your Heart (GxG)

Chapter Ten

Rebecca’s POV (During school- Same day)

I walked around school nervously, I'm not a sportsy kind of person so my sixth period was free while everyone else had some kind of sport. Well not everyone, obviously, but I mean most people play a sport.

Heck, even Celia played something.

That kind of made me feel like a loser, but at the same time I'm not very coordinated. I would probably hurt myself very bad if I tried to play any kind of sport.

I stopped pacing around the library while taking a deep breath. Even in my head I feel like I'm rambling.

“Hey Becca!” I heard Melody, one of my best friends say as she walked up to me.

I was in the library, at the very end because I felt nervous. I felt like my conscious was eating me alive, I felt like I have to tell someone.

“How did you know you were into girls?” I blurted out.

I could feel myself blush as I stared down at the floor, unsure of what to say.

Melody chuckled before speaking, “Is that what this is about?” she asked me, “I knew you were acting weird.” She said while stomping her foot.

“Well?” I said while forcing myself to look up at her. I had to know. I need to know because my feelings were confusing me to the extreme.

It was also a fairly knew thing.

I mean before I looked up to Celia, it wasn’t until a couple of days ago that I started to actually feel things for her. Weird things

Like I felt my heart rate increase at the mere sight of her, and my palms got sweaty every time she touched me, which was a lot

And the sound of her voice… or her laugh, those things sent me off the edge. All I wanted to do was hear her talk. That’s why I tried keeping our conversations going.

She made me nervous, and that’s saying something because usually not many people made me feel this kind of nervous.

“Calm down” I heard Melody say while placing her hands on my shoulders. “Don’t over think this!” she said while smiling at me.

I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself down.

“O-ok.” I said nervously while wiping my sweaty palms on my jeans.

“What’s wrong?” she asked me, saying the words slowly.

I took another huge deep breath before continuing. “I-I think that I like… someone.” I said quickly, trying not to dwell on who the specific person was.

“And that makes you nervous?” she asked me.

I nodded slowly. “I-it’s a… a g-girl.” I said slowly.

The simple thought made me nervous, but at the same time I was kind of glad it was Celia. I mean, she’s nice, and sweet, and caring, and she defends other, and cute…

Cute…

No, she’s more than just cute. She’s beautiful, exquisite. The way her brown hairs flows down her back in curly locks, or the way her deep green eyes look at me with such tender care.

Or the way she smiles and a dimple shows up on her left cheek. It makes me wonder if she only has one dimple… if so, she makes it look amazingly cute.

Or the way she always looks perfect, the perfect image of royalty in this school. But I’ve also seen her while she’s relaxed. The day she slept in my room, I couldn’t help but watch her as she slept. Not in a creepy stalker way, but I had woken up at night while she wrapped her arms around me.

The simple movement woke me up, and after that I couldn’t go to sleep anymore. She wrapped her arms around me and rested her head on my chest as she slept.

It made me feel warm inside to know that someone like her could ever seek someone like me, whether it’s during lunch or in her sleep. Maybe she wasn’t even conscious or sure of what she was doing, but the simple contact made me happy.

I watched as melody looked at me with a sly smile. “Really, and who, may I ask, is this special girl that has caught your attention?” she said while smiling at me, it kind of scared me.

That question brought Celia into my mind, and it made me wonder what it would be like to have her, to hold her. To make her mine

But then realization came to me and I thought about the fact that she was getting married.

“A married woman.” I said melancholically.

Melody narrowed her eyes at me, “She’s married?” she asked me in disbelief

I nodded, she might as well be. “Plus, I don’t even know if she likes me… if she eve likes girls.” I said with a frown.

Melody only smiled, which caused me to scowl.

“Maybe you should tell her.”

“Tell her what! That I like her, that she shouldn’t marry my brother and me instead!” I said without thought, the simple fact that she and my brother were being married was unfair. At first I didn’t care, I mean why should I care about the poor girl who got stuck with my stupid brother…

But then I found out it was Celia and I didn’t want them to get engaged. Heck, I don’t even want them to know each other for fear that she will like my brother better than… me.

“Oooh” I heard melody say with another sly grin.

I frowned. “She might as well be married. She’s royalty. She’s special… she wouldn’t like someone like me.” I said while walking away. “Forget we ever talked about this.” I said with sad realization.

Melody only chuckled. “You, better than anyone, should know not to judge a book by its cover, weren’t you the one that invaded her to hang out with us, you’re the one who didn’t look at her as though she were royalty, but a normal person like us.”

I scowled as I walked away from her.

I didn’t feel like listening to it. Friends were like this, they told you the things you wanted to hear. But things are easier said than done…
