What do you do when you lie to them?

What do you do when you say you love them… but it's a lie?

What do you do?

What do you do when you lie about love?

…I lied… over and over… I lied…I lied.

-2 weeks ago-

Ryou sat alone in his room, half asleep until-

"Ryou, phone" Malik knocked on the door, "It's her again…"

It had been a little over a month since Ryou had moved in with Malik, who had just turned 18 while Ryou was still only 16- it sucked since Malik would always tease him calling him a child-

Not too much longer after Ryou moved in, he started going out with a waitress he worked with, Maria (I dunno if that's an actual character, I'm not trying to use an actual one so whatever)

Malik had clearly grown annoyed of her calling at all hours, and coming over without a word ahead of time.

"Ryou…?"

The white haired teen opened his door and took the cordless phone, "Thanks Malik" Ryou smile/yawned. Malik rolled his eyes and walked back into his room.

"Maria?" Ryou held the phone up to his ear

"Hey Ryou, sorry if I woke you- but it is only 7… you weren't asleep were you?"

"No…" he half lied- he wasn't asleep entirely-

"Oh ok well, how are you?"

"F-fine I guess…" Ryou lifted an eyebrow a little confused about her questions

"Answer your door" Maria giggled

"Eh?" just then there was a knock on the front door. "I'll get it" Ryou called to Malik; he opened the door to find, not surprisingly, Maria. She stood there smiling.

"Come on silly" she grabbed his arm, taking the liberty to steal the phone and toss it on the floor. She dragged the poor teen down the apartment halls and outside. "Look" she pointed up towards the sky. After a few minutes Ryou saw a shooting star, then another, he then realized she was showing him a meteor shower.

"Isn't it pretty?"

"Yeah"

"Ryou…" she took his hand in hers. Ryou looked at her as she blushed, "I love you." She smiled up at him.

There was a pang in his heart… was it? It was such an odd feeling when she said those words. Did that mean he loved her too?

Before Ryou could think more into it the words left his lips, "I love you too"

Did he really?

Ya, ya… I know it's a super short chapter but I just wanted to get the idea off my mind if you people like the plot so far then I might just keep writing. Maybe. I might suddenly loose interest since other little plot bunnies are being born in my head right now- it sux . - lalala, bye
