I had to tell him how I feel before it's too late.
I ran not daring to slow down my pace. I arrived at his house a few minutes later out of breathe. I knocked on his door and waited for him to answer it. He did. When he saw me he wore a baffled expression. He stared at my wet clothes that was now drenched from my sweat.
"Andre" I said trying to catch my breath so I could speak clearly "I need to talk to you"
"Sure. What's up Tori?"
He closed the door behind him and we both stood on his porch in silence. I wanted to tell him everything. Of how I felt for him and how I've been too blind to see it! I wanted to tell him that I loved him. I wanted him to hold me. To tell me that he felt the same way about me.
"Tori?" came Andre's voice breaking my thoughts. I sighed. This confession was going to be hard on the both of us.
"Andre" I started shifting my gaze so I wouldn't have to see the confused look in his eyes when I tell him "I love you"
Those three words hung in the air like a mist. Andre didn't speak neither did I. For while we both stood there staring at anywhere but each other. My heart was racing a mile a minute; I couldn't believe I just told him. I really wish I could read his thoughts now.
"Tori" whispered Andre and I held my breathe.
This was it! This moment could either break me or fix me!
"I don't know what to say"
"Say that I love you back" I pleaded shocked that I was begging. "Do you love me Andre?"
He didn't answer instead he stared off into the sky. Finally a couple of minutes later he spoke.
"No Tori I don't"
My heart stopped as well as my entire being. Did he just say what I heard him say? The sad look in his eyes confirmed that I did. I blinked back unwanted tears. I had to get away. I didn't want him to see me like this. So I ran with no certain destination on my mind. I heard footsteps echo my own but I didn't bother to look back figuring it was just some stranger passing by.
When I thought I had covered as much distance away from Andre's house I stopped. I then plopped down on the grass panting hard. I glanced towards the night sky watching white puffy clouds float in front of the moon. Someone had sat down next to me. Without looking I knew it was Andre. He too was examining the sky. None of us said anything.
"Why are you here?" I asked trying to keep the hurt out of my voice but knew I failed. However, Andre didn't seem to notice.
"I want to tell you something"
"What?" I spat and waited for him to say it.
"What I said back there was true I don't love you Tori"
"Yeah I already know" I muttered thinking that it hurts much more when it's said a second time. I tried to keep my tears at bay. One escaped and landed on my right cheek. Andre took his thumb and gently wiped it away. I froze. His touch was so tender and sweet.
"I just don't love you Tori I really, really, really times a million love you"
My heart started to do a gymnastics show. A wide smile plastered my face. I was so happy! Happier than anyone in the world. Andre embraced me his lips brushing my ear. My skin tingled in a good way.
"Will you be my girlfriend Tori Vega?"
I let go of him and stared at his handsome face. He looked so darn adorable looking at me like that. Any girl would be insane for not wanting to have him as a boyfriend.
"Of course Andre I would love too!"
He picked me up. We both started to laugh as he twirled me around. Then unexpectedly he kissed me. A display of fireworks exploded my mind. If it weren't for Andre holding me I would have swooned. We did this for a good one minute. I broke the kiss.
"I love you Tori Vega" he whispered holding me tight.
I grinned. "And I love you Andre Harris"
And we kissed once again.
