Is it Really That Hard?
Helia paced around the room with Timmy sitting next to his bookshelf, Brandon sitting on his bed, Riven sitting on his desk, Nabu floating next to the door, and Sky sitting in a random chair by the window. "Dude it's not that hard," Brandon said.
Helia stopped pacing. "Yes it is."
"Dude even Timmy did it. SO if he can do it sure you can do it," Riven said.
"Riven is right, all of us have done it," Sky said.
"Sky you know I can't do it especially to Flora," Helia said flopping down on his bed as Brandon got up.
"Well dude," Brandon said. "I'll call Stella she's done it tones of times."
Helia sighed as Brandon got his cell and dialed Stella's number. After a couple of rings Stella answered. "Hey Honey Bear," Stella said.
"Hey Stella, we need your help."
"What do you need my help with?"
"Helia thinks it's hard."
"He does? Wow. Come on Helia everyone has does it once in a while. Even Tecna has."
"Has what?" the guys heard Tecna asked as Stella put her cell phone on speaker.
"Helia thinks it's hard," Stella said.
"It is highly illogical for that to be so difficult," Tecna said.
"That's what we've been trying to tell him!" Nabu said.
"Guys and girls if I do it will you give it a rest?" Helia asked.
"Fine," everyone said as Helia walked out the room. As he walked down the hall Helia ran a hand through his hair. What have I gotten myself into, he thought as he walked to the hover bike part of the school. Helia grabbed a helmet, found a hover bike and rode to Alfea.
When he got there Helia parked the hover bike and went to find Flora's room. After going through the hallways for a bit and sneaking past Ms. Griselda, Helia finally found Flora's dorm room. He knocked on the door. "Hi Helia," Flora said as she opened the door.
"Hey Flora this is really hard to say but..." his voice trailed off.
"What?"
"I like you."
"I like you too, Helia."
"I mean I really like you, as in more than a friend."
Flora stared at him.
Helia turned to go. "Sorry. I shouldn't have bothered you"
"Wait!" Flora called as Helia stopped in his tracks.
He faced her as she collapsed into his arms crying.
"I love you too, and I should be the one that's sorry."
"Why?" Helia asked happy yet puzzled by what she just said.
"All this time I've been too much of a coward to tell you, that's why."
He put his lips to her ear. "You're not a coward in my eyes," he whispered.
She sniffed. "Really?"
"Yes," he said before he kissed her. She kissed him back.
So that goes to show you that sometimes saying 'I love you' isn't really that hard.
