I Wasn't The Right One.

Part 6 "Confession" P3

It was time for night games! Then I was certain I was going to tell Mike how I felt, I had everything planned.

The Eighteenth Day

It was getting dark. For the night games, we had to walk past the Field and into the dark and eery forest. Zoey, one of my friends was scared of the dark. (She knew about me and Mike) So I let her walk with me. I allowed her to stay in my arms until we got to the end of the trail. After walking for a few minutes into the forest we sat in a gazebo and were told the rules of the game. Basically, two of the instructors were trying to stop us from getting to the other gazebo on the other side of the forest. So we had to make the smallest amount of noise possible, and keep in mind we were not allowed flashlights while the instructors were. I decided to go in alone to reduce the amount of noise made that a group would make. I was wearing dark clothing when we played this and I walked instead of running, eventually, I got past them into the other gazebo in second place! What I didn't expect to get there first was Ricky, I hadn't seen him since the van ride to the resort. He didn't seem to care I got there along with him at all! We just sat across each other in the gazebo until everybody got to the end with us as well. Finally, it was time to walk back.

I walked back with Zoey to the resort as it was even darker than when we were walking to the forest. When we got halfway to the resort we were able to see the stars above us, it was beautiful. I had Zoey in my arms this had to be the time. She looked at me "you want to do this with Mike?" She asked me. I started blushing and I asked her "should I tell him?" she then jumped out of my arms and looked at me "you have to do it, right now. It's the perfect time! The stars are perfect and Mike should be at the bamboo club right now. LET'S GO!" She dragged me by the arm and ran me to the bamboo club and there he was. Mike, sitting playing twister laughing with his friends and he just looked so perfect in his casual clothing and his cute glasses.

"Joey has something to tell you, Mike!" Zoey screamed into the room. I honestly wanted to punch her in the face after that, I was so embarrassed and wanted to cry. But I had to get through it was almost over. Mike got up, pushed up his glasses and walked over to me "Hey!" I said nothing and wrapped my arm around him and brought him out to the balcony. And I said to him "look, you may have noticed I've been awkward around you lately. And you may have seen me take a peek at you every once in a while when I think you're not looking. But there is something I really, really need to tell you." "What is it?" He replied. "I think I-" his eyebrow rose up "I'm in love with you." He paused for a moment and looked up. "I know," he said. "Who told you?!" "Maxwell" I fucking knew it! I knew that little bastard spilled the beans. But I laughed it off and since I was here now I didn't really get mad at him. "And yeah" now my eyebrow rose, "I think I love you too." We both started blushing and we just looked into each other eyes for a minute. The best minute of my entire life. His ocean blue eyes and his blonde hair distracted me from the number of people probably watching us from inside. After another minute of laughing and talking about the beautiful stars, we walked back inside. There was light applause from some people there at the time, especially Zoey and Max, they probably worked together or something. We then sat at the bamboo club and made jokes for the rest of the night. It was great, and I finally told him.

I had to get further, for love.
