My wish had come true - Halen avoided me for the rest of the week. The cons? I thought about him even more. My mind was corrupted. I couldn't even focus on my studies. Mr. Rosenberg caught me daydreaming nearly five times, and I was this close to getting detention. Why hadn't I stopped yet? Halen obviously meant he doesn't love me in the same way, since he called me buddy. He always does, though. No. I should stop thinking like I have a chance. I'll just obliterate him from my mind and focus on what we're learning. The war of... what, exactly? The war in my head? He loves me, he loves me not...
When will this end?
If this didn't stop I would be wearing a strait-jacket, on my way to the padded room. What am I going to do? Confess to Halen, and have him laugh in my face? I just need a sign... It seemed to be my lucky day, as my phone vibrated in my back pocket. Luckily, Mr. Rosenberg has bad ears. I slyly checked it. From Halen, saying, "Meet me @ bleacher door in 20".
Maybe it was important! You never know. I never know. If I didn't go, my thoughts would kill me. If I did, I'd have to risk being caught and getting rejected. Still, I went. I stood my ground next to the bleacher doors and acted casual when teachers strolled by. The whole time I was thinking that I was damn lucky there was no security cameras. I would've gotten in trouble for ditching. Technically, it isn't ditching... More like pausing my education to go find the love of my life. You know, I used to be better than this. I would never risk skipping class, or leave my mind empty of any thought except him. What was happening to me? When did I become so weak and brainless? I should just leave. I've been indecisive about everything, but now, I'm making my own decision. I began to stroll back into my class, when I heard footsteps. A warm hand landed on my shoulder, spun me around, and planted their lips against mine. I was frozen and scared. After a few moments, I found sense in my arms and shoved the person away. His hazel eyes were filled with sorrow and confusion. The eyes I found weren't some creep's...
They were Halen's.
