A/N: sorry it's so short! my friend wanted me to update so badly soooo here we go. 

I had started regretting telling Russell the moment I pressed the 'enter' key to send my message of confession. 

It was just two days after that. We hadn't talked since I told him my true feelings while we usually talked everyday. 

This was not what I wanted.

Destructing my precious friendship with him wasn't my goal.

My goal was to deepen the relationship between us.

It obviously wasn't going that way.

I knew he used to like a girl.

One girl.

Only one girl since he came to this school.

One girl who I couldn't even start to be compared to.

She was gorgeous.

Beautiful.

Pretty.

Cute.

Stunning. 

Nice.

Funny. 

All around amazing.

Compared to her, I was a nothing. Perhaps a crumb. Perhaps a piece of dust. A wonderful piece of dust.

Just kidding. Wonderful shouldn't be allowed to describe me.

I was a nothing.  

An absolute nothing. 

So it was just two days afterward when I gathered a whole lot of other courage to talk to Russell yet again. 

leigh evans(:: hey

russell ley: sup..

leigh evans(:: i was just kidding about two days ago

i actually like jeff... you were right :P

russell ley: oh

hah i knew it! 

We continued talking, although I still felt some awkward atmosphere between us. 

But that was that. 

There. 

Now everything was back to normal. 

...Or was it?
