Beyond Our Wildest Imaginations

Chapter Ten: The One

So it's summer and I kept trying contacting Sarah ever since the kiss. I felt bad for kissing her. She eventually called me.

"Hi, Arthur. What's up"

"Hey...Sarah...just wanna talk about what happened at the prom. I shouldn't have kissed you. It's just that you're so beautiful."

"Oh, the kiss. I felt stupid too. I let myself fell into your spell."

"I'm really sorry. Ever since we worked together for the design committee, I saw the beauty in you. I don't know why but I never stopped thinking about you. Every single day."

"To be honest, Arthur. I'm not saying I don't like you, but you're handsome. Maybe I'm not destined to fall in love with you. I'm just not sure."

"I know. I'm used to that. But thanks for still accepting me as your friend."

"Of course, Arthur. You're so cool, you know. Comics, you can sing, you're funny and all."

"I really appreciate it, Sarah. I guess I'll be seeing you again this September. As soon as the school starts again."

"Yeah. But I was thinking if we could go out. A friendly outing. Not a date."

"Haha, yeah sure sure! I'm in. Where do you wanna go?"

"I was thinking if we could ice skating near the SkyLine." (Note: SkyLine is a mall near Charlton)

"That sounds great, Sarah. How about this Saturday?"

"Sure. Maybe at 3 pm?"

"Yeah. See yah!......Friend..."

"See you too, friend! :)"

We went to the ice skating rink and we had a great time. I got to know Sarah more. She loves to draw. Se's a really great artist. She also loves watching movies. I had fun skating and talking to her.

"How are you and Skye?"

"We're still friends. I really can't choose between you and Skye."

"Wow. -___-"

"Haha."

"Hey, is that Skye?"

"Where?"

"There! I think she's with her family."

"Skye!!!"

"Arthur!!! Sarah!!! Hey, guys...what are you doing here?"

"Ice skating."

"Oh, that sounds fun. It's just the two of you?"

"Yeah..." (Sarah)

"I'll be seeing you as soon as the school starts! :)"

"Sure." (Arthur)

"I know you blushed, Arthur."

"I didn't...."

"Whatever. Hey, you wanna go home?"

"Yeah...I guess...,my feet hurt. I kept on falling on the ice."

"Haha me too. My body hurts. Thanks for coming with me."

"No big deal, Sarah."

She kissed me on the cheek. That's when I blushed. I really think that she's the one but I'm not her The One. It was our moment together and it is a memory to keep. It'll be our eleventh grade this September at Charlton. I still don't know what to take up in college. I even thought of not even going to college. I'll miss my friends, I'm growing up and the truth is that I'm scared of even going to college. I still have no plans for my future. It'll be our last two years before opening a new door. I'm just not ready to meet new friends and I'm scared of failing. My grades aren't that high, I just wished I took my studies seriously. I can be top 1 but I'm not going the extra mile. What would I do after college? Where will I go? What job will I take? Who's the companion that I'll be with for the rest of my life? All these questions going through my mind right now. I just need to spend more time, have fun, take risks because this will be our last two years and you only live once.
