Chapter 7

~Charlotte~

My hands were on fire.

I wanted to pretend going to the bathroom just to rest my hands, but I know, I couldn't.

"All right, let's take a break for-" "AN HOUR." All of us shouted at the same time. I'm so glad I'm not the only one who feels like a tired old lady from sewing. I went downstairs and went out to the garden. The flowers looked pretty. I saw some roses near by and decided to look at them. Some were red, then others were white and only few were still seeds.

Suddenly, I remembered something. Or particularly, someone.

(Flashback: August 3, 2008)

"All right, one more picture!" "Uh, mom, can we go already? I still have to show Niall his date." I told my mom for the nth time. Honestly, I was just using this as an excuse for her to let me go already with Trevor. "Oh fine! Okay, be a good girl and you, young man, be a good boy." He just smiled at her innocently.

He was an expert at that.

We left the house and quickly entered his car. "Okay, ready?" "Are you kidding me? I've been waiting for this day since I got a puppy." He and I laughed. He and I kissed for a few minutes and he finally drove off.

My phone started ringing and I saw Niall's name. "Hey Nialler! We're on our way." I greeted him. "Okay, can't wait for your speech!" He joked. "Shut up, you. Just cause I won prom queen doesn't mean I'm gonna run for a Presidential election." "Well, you're gonna need practice when you get VMA!" "Oh stop it, you and I will accept it together!" "Haha, yeah! We'll be Charllier." "Ew, are you crazy? Haha, I'm just kidding! I gotta go, see you in prom." "Okay, see you." He hung up after.

"Looks like Niall and you are gonna have a blast later," "Of course we are! He's my best friend." "Don't take this the wrong way, but I don't know what you see in that guy," He turned left.

He just said, what?

"What are you talking about? He's a great lad, a funny and supportive friend and best of all, he and I are a lot alike." "That's what so annoying! Do you hear yourself? You describe him as if you have a crush on him or something," "Are you jealous or something?" "No, but I am definitely curious." "About what?"

"Do you have feelings for him?" This was nonsense. I didn't have feelings for him, I only considered him as a friend. "I don't and that's final!" I shouted at him.

He just ruined prom. My own boyfriend, not trusting me? How could I be so clueless?

When we arrived, we both entered the big hall. We didn't enter as a couple, but as 2 people who wanted an explanation.

Prom was ruined for me. Especially, when I found out I lost prom queen. But the crazier part, Trevor won prom king.

Prom queen just had to be the last person I'd spent a deserted island with. Mylene Davis.

As they danced the night away, I walked out to the exit and went to school garden. I sat on the bench and continued sobbing on what Trevor brought up earlier. He didn't believe I didn't have a crush on Niall. I mean, I get it. He thinks we spend to much time together but I can't help it.

We're friends and that's what friends do.

I looked at the red I saw and grabbed it out and decided to play the stupidest game of the entire world.

He Loves Me, or Loves Me Not.

Instead, it would be: I Love Him, I Don't.

I took out each petal, blurting out the words until the last two came. "I..."

"Boo." Someone called from behind.

(Present)

"Hey, what are you doing?" He greeted.
