Should I Tell? / l.h

Chapter 34

I managed three weeks without seeing him. Three weeks without bumping into him. Three weeks without speaking to him. And those three weeks were hell. I didn't realise how dependent I had become of him until I didn't have him and I felt lost without him, like something was missing.
The first week was the worst, many times I contemplated texting him and telling him that it was a big mistake because I did love him but it was easier to say I didn't. The second week was better, I started to accept the fact that he weren't going to text me and that I needed to move on, so I tried to do that but I weren't ready just yet. Marley asked me a few times to go out but I didn't want to risk seeing him because then I'd run the risk of speaking to him and telling him everything. The third week was when I thought I was okay, I thought I was over him after so long but then school started again after the break and I knew I was going to see him. I was at my locker when I seen him, he looked exactly the same as when I last saw him, expect if possible, he looked happier, why can't I be happier?

"it's rude to stare" Marley broke me from my gaze, I sighed and shut my locker

"c'mon Lex, he's obviously moved on you need to too, it's been long enough now"

"easy for you to say, you're not going through a break-up" Marley's still with Michael and they're happy together but it's hard to be happy for her,

"oh c'mon, it wasn't even a real relationship you went out for like what, two weeks? you don't have much to be hung over about, I get that he was sort of seeing April whilst supposedly with you but you should be over it by now" well I never seen that coming and I didn't know what to say,

"screw you" I turned around and headed to class, but I before I did I bumped into someone, the last person I wanted to bump into,

"sorry" Luke said as he picked up my books off the floor, I didn't say anything
"it's rude to stare?" damn it, I need to stop staring, but I could he was joking

"people keep telling me that" we both laughed and for a second I forgot that I was still hung over him,

"maybe you should listen to them then"

"maybe I should" we stood there for a few seconds but I began to walk away, but he stopped me

"do you think we could talk? you know about us an stuff?"

"I don't know Lu-" he cut me off for once,

"please, meet me at the football field after school" he looked at me willingly and I nodded. My curiosity got the better of me because I want to know if these past three weeks have been hell for him too.
