Chapter 1.…Midnight Phone Call
Phoebe was lay awake in her bed, she couldn't find sleep once again. Every time she would close her eyes all she could see was Gerald, he's been tormenting her soul, her entire being, now she guess she understands how Helga feels. She looked over at her night table, her clock read midnight on the dot, and than looked at her phone. She needed to talk to some one, someone who could help her understand the way she was feeling. She already knew the truth she was madly in love with Gerald, she wanted to tell him so bad how she felt, but was too scare to confess it.
She reached over the phone and slowly dial Gerald's cell phone number, she didn't want to call the house in fear one of his parents might pick up. After tree rings she told her self she would hang up the phone, but instead on the second ring Gerald picked it up.
"Hello" he said with a tiered voice
"Hi Gerald it's phoebe, sorry that I woke you up"
"It's ok, is something wrong" he asked her
"I couldn't sleep, and I thought that I would called you and …" she didn't really knew why
she had called him
"And what?" he asked her
"Don't know I just felt the need too I guess"
"That's very nice of you, why couldn't you sleep?"
"Just things wondering in my head"
"Well would you mind if I come and pick you up and we can take a walk and talk?"
"No I don't mind at all"
"Great I'll be there in like 10 minutes ok"
"Ok" and they both hung the phone.
Phoebe was wondering if she should tell him, this might be the perfect way to confess her feelings towards him. She quickly change from her pyjamas into something more decent. It was a hot summer nigh, she decided to wear a shirt and tank top she didn't want get to hot. She took her keys and crept her way from her room down the stairs she didn't want to wake up her parents, if she did she would be in great trouble. She slowly open the front door and prayed that it didn't make any noise, and slowly put the key in the door knob and looked it. She sat down on her stoop and waited for Gerald arrival. About 3 minutes later she saw a shadow, and guess that it was Gerald. As the shadow got closer she could tell it was definitely him.
"Hey Phoebs" he greeted her
"Hey Gerald"
"Ready to go?" he asked her
"yeah"
He took her hand to lift her up from the stood.
"Thanks" she said while blushing. Every time he would touch her in any ways she would feel paralyzed.
"No problem" he said
It truly was a beautiful night, the moon was shinning from all it might and the stars were glittering from every color. They started tot walk towards the park and Gerald started the conversation.
"So Phoebs what's up, something must have been bugging a lot for you to call me up like that"
"No not really" she lied" I just wanted to talk to you, because it's been so long since I've
had some one on one time with you. I simply wanted to know how you were doing and what you had been up too"
"Well Phoebs something's dangerously driving me insane"
"What is it" she asked
"I would love to tell you, but I'm scared that I might hurt someone really close to me and Arnold"
"Arnold? What I don't understand"
"You see I've been doing something that can jeopardise our friendship"
"Than why did you do it, and what the hell did you do?" she asked getting a bit confused
"Phoebs I can tell you?" he looked so guilty and Phoebe was worried
"Gerald what did you do" she asked concerned
"Phoebs I'm so scared that it I might hurt you"
"Hurt me? What do you mean it's going to hurt me?"
"Phoebs you probably know by now how I feel about you"
"How I was what" she asked a bit surprised
"If you didn't know, well now you know. I like you a lot, I may, I might even be in love with you"
Phoebe felt like she need to tell him that she loved him too.
"Well Gerald I love you too"
"Oh my God Phoebe" he said sad, guilty and it was full of remorse
"Did I say something wrong. Please don't make me wait any longer. What did you do? You're really scaring me"
"First you have to promise that you wont hate me"
"Ok I promise I wont hate you. Now what is it"
"Phoebs' he took a big deep breath' I don't know how to tell you this…I…I've been seeing…more like going out with….Lila"
Phoebe's heart felt like it stopped beating, it felt as if time stood still. All she could hear was the fast paste of her breathing. She didn't know what to fell. What Gerald told her it overwhelmed her. She felt something wet and hot running down her face, she didn't want to cry in front of him right now. All she said was
"Gerald…. Why?"
"I'm so sorry phoebe"
"How long has it been going on"
"For 6 moths"
Her tears seem to come out even more now. She turned around and started to walk on the opposite direction.
"Phoebe" Gerald called, but she didn't answer she kept on walking.
When she got home she dropped herself on her bed and let out a welling not caring if it woke up her parents. She cried and cried until she fell asleep.
