I don't need anyone.

ELLA'S POVV 

Nicole, Jenny and I were sitting at our usual table, when Zac walked up to me.

"Listen, El. I'm sorry." He said with his sad eyes.

"Oh yeah, Zac. It's okay.." I said with a smile. I honestly didnt want to fight with Zac. It was my fault..

"Oh okay. awesome. I'll see you around." He said and left.

Nicole looked at me and said "The same old drama?"

I laughed and replied "yeah.."

"I think you should choose Max. He's so sweet, I mean he was such a great friend to me after my break up. He's really cute too.." Jenny added.

"I know..Max is so great!" I replied.

"But, Zac is not any less. He's in the football team, he clearly LOVES Ella, he's so sweet towards her." Nicole said in return .

"Guyss, I know. Both of them are great! Can we please not talk about this?" I said.

"Ok ok. Chill.." Nicole said trying to calm me.

After the Recess, I was walkin upto my Class, when Max stopped me. He was wearing a purple hollister hoodie, He looked so cute. He licked his lip and said "Listen, El. Do you have a minute?" 

"Oh sure, Maxiee" I replied with a big smile. 

"C'mon, I want to show you something! "

"Okayy"

He held my hand, and literally started running. We ran towards the school gate. He put his finger on his lips and said "Shhh. Now, we have to be real quiet!"

"haha. we are bunking school? yayy" I whispered.

"Yes babe." He replied.

We quietly got out of the school gate, and started walking. I asked him where we were going but he kept ignoring me. Finally we stopped, and he took out a black cloth from his pocket and asked me to cover my eyes. He had some sort of *SURPRISE* for me. I wonder what It was? 

  He slowly covered my eyes with the black cloth, kissed me on the cheek with his oh-so soft lips, held my hands and helped me walk.. I wonder where he was taking me, I was so excited.

Then, we stopped. He slowly removed the black cloth from my eyes, and whispered in my ears to open my eyes. It was the park, where we had our first kiss.  He walked me to the exact swings where we sat on our first date. It felt so nice to be back there with Max. 

I smiled and said "Max. -" He gave me another *shh* and told me to sit on the swing. I sat there, and sat next to me. He pulled my legs to get me closer, and then locked my legs into his.

He looked at me, with his gorgeous green eyes and said

 "Ella, I brought you here, because this is the place where I fell for you, I fell for you hard. Now, I want you to listen very closely. because I'm gonna say everything that I wanted to tell you eversince, this whole drama started. When I first met you, I was amazed by you...You have the most adorable smile, that could just lit up my world. The first time I kissed you, you cant believe how happy I was. I know you have a difficult choice to make. I know Zac's been your friend way before me, and I know he's a great guy. he really loves you. He's also in the football team, He's a popular guy..He knows all the right things to say..I know that I'll never be him. But Ella, I may not be popular but I'll always listen to you. I may not be in the football team, but I'll always protect you. I may have not known you all  my life, but I want to know everything about you. When I say I love you, I mean it. I mean it everytime. I'm ready to stay with you, through every struggle. So even though, it's your choice. I just want you to know, that I think you should choose me!"
