This was not happening. No way. This wasn't real.
The letters were out. My letters were out. My deep extremely personal letters, were out.
There are five total,
Austin, the most popular guy in school.
Elliot, from camp.
Trent, from homecoming.
Gavin, from Model UN
And Dallas, but he's my sister's boyfriend.
Well ex-boyfriend. Not that it changes anything. I would never date one of Vanessa's ex-boyfriends, especially Dallas. Dallas is the only boy I think she's ever loved. But that didn't stop her from ending things with him and moving to Scotland for college.
If she knew how I was in love with him, she would-
"Hello, are you even listening to me?" Austin says while waving one of my letters in my face.
I wasn't. I was still in a weird daze.
"Yeah, sorry." And then I see Dallas. Walking towards me, confused with my love letter in hand.
"Oh no. Shit"
"What?"
And because I was terrified of what would happen if Vanessa found out, I kissed Austin. What was strange is, he kissed me back.
