a/n- Pretty in Pink movie. Duckie writes a letter to Andy, about his feelings and why he wanted to take her to the prom, and not Blane.
Dear Andy,
I know I shouldn't be writing you this...though how am I supposed to say it except in a letter? If I told you to your face, you'd probably freak out on me and yell 'that I am SUPPOSED to be your friend'.
Except I'm not, am I? I'm sort of that go-to guy to you. But I think we're both lying to ourselves if you still think I'm just 'Le Duck' your old childhood friend.
God, this is embarrassing. But Andy c'mon! You're killing me! You know that I'm not just a friend to you, I can see it in your eyes whenever you look at me. You're trying to keep me there is a safe friend zone, but you know how I feel...even if I've never said it til now.
God, I probably sound like a rambling asshole and I don't blame you if you burn this letter and never want to see me again. Blane is probably the better choice for you.
Though god, does it make me evil when I say I hate Blane? Really fantastically hate him? I think it's actually because he's too perfect and there's something I don't trust about him...but what do I know? I'm raving and probably just jealous and mad as hell. Because you met Blane-y five minutes practically (what? a week? c'mon you barely know the guy) and you're already in love with him, while I've known you forever. And what? I'm still just your friend, your Duckie, the duck, the dork.
Andy. What I'm trying to say here...and maybe not that well...is that I HATE BLANE and yes I'm going crazy with jealousy and probably driven you up the wall! But it's not just because the guy has a name like an appliance, too much money than he knows what to do with and probably a secret arrogant ass that thinks he's better than everybody else...No.
Not it's not it all. I hate Blane. But I hate Blane because he has you, and it's because I'm in love with you. that is why hurts so much. I hope you forgive me for telling you. I just do.
~Duckie.
