Crush

say it

I was walking home when I heard footsteps behind me.

   When I turned around I saw it was Andrew.

    " Don't do that!" I said while pushing his chest back.
   
    Andrew chuckled and began walking with me.

    " I missed you."

   My heart beat faster than it should've, it took an extreme amount of effort not to smile.

    " Can't say the same," was all I said.

   " Oh please you really expect me to believe you didn't miss this perfect face!"

   " Don't flatter yourself," I giggled.

    " No but seriously I was very lonely, why do you think I came to your house."

   " Don't you have other friends?" I asked.

   " Yeah but I prioritize."

   He just said I'm the most important!!

   " What happened to Briana?"

    " She went back, I told her all about not liking her anymore and she was sad but she left, I felt really horrible that she came all this way for me," he explained.

    " That's tough."
  
    " Yeah but I rather tell her the truth even though it hurts, than lying to myself and hurting myself," he confessed.

    " I guess you're right," I agreed.

    " Its the important stuff that you need say, even though it's hard."

    I nodded.

    " So that whole thing it was for nothing?" I asked.

   " I guess not, I never really loved her like I thought I did."

    " How did you say it?"

    " Well I kind of took her out for a little bit, but not a date. Then I sat and told her the truth, you can change the way you say it but it's still the same thing."

    " Well I'm home thank you for your kind words," I chuckled.

   " See ya," he waved and walked away.

    Everything he said was right

I decided to call Grayson.

   " Hey Gray can you come over please?"

   " Sure I'll be there in 10," he answered.

   How will I say this

   After a couple of minutes he knocked on the door.

   I nervously walked up and opened it.

   " Hi beautiful!"

   " Come on in," I greeted.

  " So what's up?"

  " Look I want to be straightforward, please don't hate me."

   His face dropped, he knew what I was doing.

   " I won't I promise."

Why is this so hard just say it!

   " I'm not so sure how I'm feeling right now, I don't want to hurt you or me so I think that we should take a break, see I need some time to make sure I have myself in control."

   He grabbed both my hands in his and kissed them.

    " I'll wait as long as it takes."

   " Thanks," I whispered.

   He headed out after drinking some coffee.

   How come I had such a huge crush on him and now I don't?

Grayson's POV

   My heart broke a little at her words. Why was she pushing me away, I've tried so much to make her happy and be a better person.

    It's because of him.....
