Far away from you but my heart is closer to you
************************************
October
Melissa was able to draw Aaron attention back to hers after I went back to school, she had him wrapped around her fingers because we became strangers just in one month
It was so annoying
It been months since he stopped coming to the house
He found love is all I can say
His birthday is just few weeks away,
We don't talk anymore, I see him only in school and he his always around Melissa or his teammates,
When I see him at the hallway, we wave at each other
An at lunch I steal glances at him,
Most times we lock eyes at each other
An I could read sadness dancing over his faceI really miss him
I accepted this distance but it cleanch my heart so bad when I see him far from me
Most days I see a piece of paper inside my locker
I miss you Gem
Please talk to me, it difficult not to talk to you
What do you want me to do I'll do it just talk to me
It breaks my heart when I see it, for the past 17 years of our lives, we've spent most days together and it difficult to stay away from each other.
" doing the two weeks mid break, I'll like for us to use this opportunity an read as a group , what do y'all think "
I asked them,It was after school, we were sitting at the library, since Kate works here as an assistant
" am going to visit Camilla and Nathan doing the break " Sarah said " James said he will like to come "
" why am I not surprise" steve muttered " so now you an James are BFF'
Sarah turn to him from her sit "there only BFF I have here and in my life is Aimee,James is only coming because he got nothing doing for the next two weeks, not like is any of your business"
Steve raise his hands up in surrender
'my bad, " he rolled his eyes"Aimee, I volunteered to help in church for two weeks " Oliver said
I nod with understanding" am working at my moms diner " Kate said
I breathe out as we all turned to look at Steve
" I am grounded for a month, because I told my parent am gay " he shrugged
Oh my God
"that good for you loser to finally agreed " Philip placed his hands on his shoulder but when Steve glare at him he remove it
"that took a lot of courage Steve congrats, for the rest of you where ever you are, please read, it takes the best to win, thanks we are dismiss for today " we all got up and put are books away as we walk out
Down towards the parking lot, Aaron lean closer to his car with face cap
I thought maybe his waiting for Melissa
But when he saw me he smiled an walk close to me
Sarah winks at me before walking out"hi "
" hi, what are you doing here " I smiled back
" I came to take you home " he helped with my books an move to his car
My car was not yet ready and Sarah has been taking me to school sometimes my motherBefore I could reject, I saw Sarah driving out
Bitch.
God I miss this car
The way the leather felt when I sat, the clean an fresh smell of mint and lemon filled my nose
I loved it
I looked at him as he drove , his hair fell to the right him
I get tempted to moves it away from his face
He cleanch his jaw when he's driving
His eyes were looking ahead
He look stress, but yet he's still handsome
As he glanced at me, I turned back immediately
He smiled and shook his head
I know he caught me staring"my birthday is next week " he said
" I know "
" I asked mom not to trow any party, I know she has it in mind already "
I giggle, Aaron mom Debbie love to trow him a surprise party, last year she did it an she invited everyone from our school including the principal
"am spending it with you Gem, you know that right " he sign
"what about Melissa "
"I told her to cancel that day, if she planned anything "
I smiled " thank God because am spending the whole day with you "
He chuckled " just be ready by 6 ""no problem Gem " he smiled "am sorry I haven't been a good best friend to you " he sign
" you've been the best," I chuckled
"then why aren't we talking, why will you keep distance with me "
Not this again
"I just don't know what happens to my best friend who would pick me to school, who will watch movies with me every Friday, who loves to lay under the covers of my bed an holding me closer, who loves baking oatmeal cookies with me, who also loves eating oatmeal cookies, who kissed my cheek any time am going to Class
I haven't seen that guy anymore, I now see a guy who doesn't recognize me anymore " my eyes became blur with tears, I look out the window" that might be true and am sorry Gem, you are the one person i value most in my life, am still that guy and am sorry "he parked the car in front of my house , he touch my hands an kissed it
After he dropped me off I rush inside
"Miriam " I called out for her
"am in the kitchen " she answered
I rush inside the kitchen"Miriam Aaron birthday is next week and am taking him somewhere will you please help me make his favorite cookie "
"oatmeal cookie " she smile at me
"yes please, you know how to prepare it better than me "
" it OK, when do you want me prepare it, "
"I'll tell you when, thank you " I kissed her cheek
" OK i heard don't bribe me, I'll do it, but you have to tell him "
I coughed nervously" mirriam he has a girlfriend and he loves her "
"why would you say that "
" have seen the two of them together Miriam an there are together for a month now "
" have been inlove dear and I'll tell you that it worth fighting for even if he doesn't feel the same for which I know he does Aimee have seen it, both of you are just scared to face it
Life is too short Aimee face it and tell him or grow old and die with it " I nodI have to tell him
