Dear d̶i̶a̶r̶y̶ Harry,

I decided I liked the idea of writing to you.

--

I feel bad.

My body is weak.

And I don't know if it's because I'm getting worse or because I have been in bed for two days straight. Mom won't let me do anything. I wish you would come over, everyone is too busy.

We haven't spoken since you left the other night.

I'm sorry I can't bring myself to tell you the truth. I just wanted a good friend. Not someone just taking pity on me. Or feeling sorry for me. I hate it. I thought you'd understand. I'm so so so sorry for lying to you, again. I didn't really lie though, okay?

I just didn't tell you the entire truth. Maybe one day I'll tell you. You seem like a wonderful person, Harry, always happy and making others laugh or brightening up their day. No matter what.

I'm pretty sure if someone was on their death bed, you would cheer them up.

Yeah, I just really need someone like you in my life.

--

Harry, please answer your phone. I need some damn Chinese food. Gosh, that sounds so good right now. Actually, anything would probably be better than this soup mom is making me eat. Like c'mon, mom, I don't have a cold. I need real food. Good food.

--

Hey, so you finally answered your phone.

Took you long enough.

You told me you would come pick me up and take me out for Chinese. I'm really excited. Mostly because I want Chinese. Not because it's like we are going out on a date type thing or anything. Nope, just two friends. Hanging out. I just need to convince my mom to let me go, which shouldn't be too hard.

Just gotta give her the "I need to live my life" speech.

--

So, you picked me up at 7. You told me we were on a date, but I laughed at you. I was really just trying to hide the fact that my heart was beating way too fast. I have no idea why it was though.

Maybe I was just nervous because I had never actually been on a real date?

Logan never took me anywhere. I mean he would take me to parties and hang out with his friends, ignoring me completely. But I don't count those as dates. So I guess, technically, you were my first date. And I'm perfectly fine with that.

--

You keep telling me these awful jokes. I don't even understand some of them.

Okay, okay. Maybe some of them are a little funny, though I'd never tell you that.

--

You told me how you fell in love once.

With a girl named Allison. You said she broke your heart by cheating on you. I don't understand how someone could hurt you.

You are the most amazing person I've ever met. But hey, everything happens for a reason, right?

I told you about Logan. I honestly don't think I ever loved him, I was just in love with the idea of him. I had this fantasy in my head that he was Prince Charming. But in reality, he was just a regular guy. There was nothing special to him. He was actually kind of rude. Evelyn tried to tell me that, but I was so infatuated with him I wouldn't listen to her. Or anyone.

Maybe he'll find a girl that makes him happy, and they'll truly love each other.

--

I liked our movie night. Although, you are going to be so tired at school tomorrow. Good thing I don't have to go.

The whole online school thing is really cool.

Ok, that's a lie. It's so boring.

I appreciate you spending time with me. Maybe we can go on a date again soon.

Just bring flowers next time, okay?

--

You know what, there is something special about you. I don't know what to be exact. But, I feel like we are going to be good friends.

You make me happy, Harry.

~Charlotte
