Now I've gotta go and finish my homework... Bye... -~Journal 1. "hey Lucas, can I talk to you? " I ask "sure. " he smiles "I just kinda need this off my chest soo... Umm... I really like you. " I say quickly "oh... Ummm. Wow. Umm. How about we stay friends...? " he says, I feel my heart drop and shatter in a million pieces. "will best friends be okay? " I ask "best friends, always."
