I suddenly felt myself being happy to extremes.
I never thought I'd be held like that.
I never thought you'd ever hug me back.
I never thought a person could be so happy and still feel so empty.

Empty.

That's the word.

Empty at the fact it was a hug you could have given to your sister.

Empty because you came to me only when you needed to get something off your back.

Empty because I knew I'd never be able to let go.

Empty because I could do nothing else.

When I let go of you, you looked down at me.

You said Ezzy, I never thought I'd come to you with this drama.

I gave you a grin. To be honest I didn't think you'd come either.

You gave me, a heartwarming smile that made me feel like the most important girl in the world. Lets go out for some ice-cream!

I felt the atmosphere between us lighten up. Is Max Harris asking me on a date?

The sarcasm was heard in my voice or I hoped it was.
Let's were going out on our "date"

I went upstairs, changed and we left. Your truck was an old Chevy 2000. It was clean which showed your love towards it. I gave a smile without noticing. You opened the door for me, so chivalrous. Thank you. I smiled.

We went to Eddy's for ice cream and there you got two scoops of chocolate ice cream. I got a scoop of strawberry, not wanting you to think I was fat.

We sat there and you asked if the strawberry one was good. I said yes, actually it is.

So I gave you a spoonful of mine. Your face changed to delight. Soon you said the chocolate one was gross. Before I got to finish my smile you were feeding me some. It honestly was pretty bad. But I lied and said it was good. I was trying to contain my laugh and maybe you realized because soon you burst into laughter and said its pretty freaking awful Ezzy.

While you said that I couldn't contain myself anymore and before we knew it we were both exploding with laughter.

Aww you two are so cute!
A girl that seemed fourteen or so said. In the background I heard awed sighs. I wish I had a relationship like that!

So do I. I thought but kept quiet.
