I was bored and I needed to write something, I hope you like this.
You were my brother's best friend
Technically out of bounds.
It was like I was breaking some kind of law or something. Crossing invisible boundaries. You were like a forbidden fruit, that is probably why I became attracted to you in the first place. Although when we were younger I saw myself as Eve and you as my Adam. But then I grew up, and my crush soon turned to unrequited love. Of course you will never find out. I'll never tell you, but I just hope that one day, you won't notice those looks I give you. The one's full of longing. The one's full of hope. I don't give you those looks anymore, I haven't for a very long time. Ever since that day.
"Awwwwww, Mattie Matt has a crush"
I stopped in my tracks by the door. I wanted to turn around and run, run as fast as I could. To get away from those words. To late, my idiot of a brother I'd already seen me.
"Guess what lil Lizzy, our little Matt has a big big big big crush on a girl"
"Oh good" I replied harshly
My brother looked taken aback, and I didn't want to look at Matt's expression, but my heart forced me to. His eyes were fixed on the couch, and he wouldn't look at me, he looked extremely embarassed.
My heart broke, he knew, he knew I was in love with him. He just didn't want to break my heart, well to late buster it's broken.
"Now then Lizzy, don't sound so happy. Well the main reason I called you in here was for your advice on what Matt should do. And now I'm thinking this wasn't such a good idea"
Oh My God, could this boy get anymore irritating. Please let me found out in later life that he was adopted. PLEASE!
I gritted my teeth, "Well what sort of advice do you want?"
"Well do you think Mattie should ask this girl out, I think he should don't you"
My heart screamed NO!
My mouth and head seemed to have joined forces, and they said.
"Sure he should if he really likes her"
"Really?" My brother and Matt spoke at once
"Yes, I do"
"Ok, I'll think about it"
With that he and my brother got up, and headed for the door. I followed them silently, my heart breaking with every step Matt took.
Suddenly he turned round, swooped down and kissed my cheek.
"Thanks kid, you're like my little sis"
If my cheek hadn't been tingling, and if I wasn't recovering from shock. I would have reprimanded him for calling me a kid. Oh no, and he called me his little sis, this was not good. I was in deep trouble I had to fall out of love with him.
Believe me, it's the hardest thing I've ever done. That was two years ago, and I still haven't got over him. Although I never did meet the girl he fancied.
