Chapter 1

Trying not to love you: By NickelBack

A young man wearing a black colored beanie and orange hooded jacket sat outside on his porch watching the late night rain storm while it covered the entire neighborhood. Ignoring the stream of tear drops on the sides of his face as he was too broken hearted to wipe them away. All his thoughts were focused on her. F om her long midnight hair to her smile that could all ways brighten up even the cloudiest of days.

She meant everything to him and he knew deep within his heart that he loved her like he never loved anyone else before. But still he could never tell her how he truly felt for he did not wish to risk their friendship for it was far too important to him to lose. So he decided to live a lie and never let her know how he truly felt about her.

As he watched the storm grow stronger the young man notice a famine figure running through the shadows of the neighborhood. He quickly stood up to get a better view of the mysterious person only to find out that it was her. The one person he adored and admired for so long running towards him. He quickly grabbed a nearby umbrella and pulled it out as he ran towards her in the pouring rain.

"Anastasia what are you doing out here in the storm you'll catch your debt of cold if you keep up like this." The young man said as he held his umbrella over the two of them.

"I don't care Double D." The young girl said.

"There's something important that I need to tell you Double D."

"What is it Anastasia?"

Anastasia struggled to find the right words to tell Double D as though she were at war with herself.

"I…I love you Double D."

Anastasia said while she held onto him while releasing all the tears she had been fighting back.

"I've been trying so hard to not tell you Double D but I couldn't fight it anymore."

Double D was shocked to have been given such a startling revelation that he didn't know how to react to this. So Double D dropped his umbrella and gently lifted Anastasia's chin with his right hand until their eyes met. He then gently pressed his lips against hers in a deep and passionate kiss.

Anastasia was shocked by Double D's sudden act but she didn't care. She quickly wrapped her arm around his neck as he tilted her body backwards. Bot teenagers felt a rush of passion and lust in just that one moment as though they were the only two being in the world. Then as both teenagers parted lips Double D began his own confession.

"I love you Anastasia."

"Yo… You do?' she asked in a confused tone.

"Yes but I could never bring it upon myself to tell you because I could never risk our friendship on such a gamble such as love. So I forced myself to live a lie and bury the truth even though it was killing me on the inside."

He could feel Anastasia's grip tighten around him.

"Oh Double D… I never meant to put you through all that pain and suffering." Anastasia said as more tear drops fell down her face.

"As did I Anastasia."

"So do we do now Double D?"

Double D slowly helped Anastasia back to her feet.

"So long as I'm with you Anastasia I don't care what we do."

Then He gave Anastasia one more passionate kiss.

"How about we both get out of this rain and enjoy the storm together." Anastasia said as she stared lovingly into Double D's eyes

"I'd like that." Double D replied.

Double D quickly took off his jacket and placed it around Anastasia's shoulders. Then both teenagers walked back to Double D's front porch hand in hand.
