You Promised

Laciana Hudson, she never believed in love. She thinks it's for the weak and she pitys them.

After all, it was just a stupid cliché fairytale that will break your heart in the end.

***

Jason Jameson, my best friend since we were 6, held up a a pair of grey beat up sneakers.

"What are they for?" I asked, pinching my nose with my thumb and index finger.

He laughed at me, and removed my fingers away from my nose, "It doesn't stink, Luci, I promise."

I smiled and nodded, Jason was my best friend, I trusted him with everything.

"What are your sneakers for?" I asked again, pointing to the sneakers he was holding.

"For you," He said and handed me a pair.

I looked at him like he grew four heads, but accepted it hesitantly. "Why are you giving it to me?"

"It's a gift," He grinned, "After seven beat up pairs, we can be together."

Luciana never said she wanted to love, will her best friend Jason change that or will she end up rejecting him instead?
