Falling For a Geek Charming

Chapter 2

"Hi, Travis! I brought you chocolate," I shyly said with a big smile on my face as I hand him the chocolate I'm holding. He just looked at me without any emotion in his face. As soon as he saw what I was holding, his brows crashed.

"I don't like chocolates, sorry." He answered and after, left without any other words said. He left me dumbfounded and disappointed. Many students were looking at me while whispering to each other and I can't help but feel my face heating up from embarrassment. I sighed heavily and was about to walk away, but someone called my name.

"Ria! Can I have that chocolate you're holding?" Tom asked, but I didn't mind him and kept on walking off.

How many times did he ignore me? I can't count since it's too many times. I only like him! Why do I feel so sad? I really tried to not have feelings for him, but I just can't. There's always be this feeling that I feel like I don't want to give up even though I wanted too. Yes, I'm tired. Tired of all his ignorance whenever I try to talk to him. I know that you don't like me back, Travis, but please don't show it too much to me because it's killing me. I ignored and rejected many guys because the only guy I like is you. I'm always trying. I understand that you'll never be mine, but I want to prove to you, Travis. I'm gonna prove to you how much I like you all my life since childhood.

11 years ago, I and Travis are like strangers. Children would bully and tease me because of nonsense reasons. Long story, short, Travis was there to protect me from those kids. Travis looked so innocent when we were just kids. He had many friends and it was because of his looks. He was cute and always neat-looking. All people around him admire him, that's why he had many people to look after him back them. When he became my friend, his friends got fewer and fewer until all he only had was me. We were so close! Like.. nothing can separate us apart until...

Until he had to move to another school.

Of course... I became so sad because all I had was only him, but I needed to be strong. I used to remember his last words before he left.

"I promise, I'll be back."

Oh god, I'm crying right now! /sniff/ Why do I have to think about all these? It's just sad. Yes, he returned, we're in the same school, things changed, he changed, I changed. It's like the opposite when we were just kids and the things happening right now. After he left, things really changed. I decided to look like a beauty and decided to fix myself. Travis, on the other hand, obviously decided to distance himself to people because I know him, he doesn't want much attention and that goes the same with me too.

I miss him, but I bet he doesn't miss me too.
