Clare

What was it that made KC so irresistibly adorable? Was it the way his hair fell covering his eyes? Was it his amazingly cute smile when he looked me in the eyes? Why was I crushing this hard on some guy I just met a few months ago? I didn't think it was possible for me to like a cute skater, but I guess it is. The truth is, I'm falling for him, I'm falling hard and I can't stop myself.

Was it his eyes or the fact that he was ridiculously smart? From the moment I saw him the first day I was stuck. I couldn't talk to him as normal person, and I was a bit rude to him, but now, I wish he would see me as more than a friend. That would be the best thing that could ever happen.

Whenever I look at him I try not to stare too long because if he ever caught me, I'd turn bright red. I can't imagine how he looks at me. It hurts to think about how he sees me. He probably thinks I'm some smart girl who cares but doesn't want to admit how much she actually cares. If he only knew how much I like him, then what would he think? Would he back away from me even more? Would he stop talking to me? That would be the worst, and he can't find out, if Alli ever tells, it'll be the day I die.

KC

If my old friends knew that I was falling for some geeky girl who wasn't even up to standards, they'd probably beat me up and tell me I was acting stupid.

I would've never thought that I'd be falling for Clare Edwards, maybe her sister, Darcy, but not Clare. The thing is that Clare is, well, everything. She may be clumsy or not as pretty as some of the other girls, but I think she's beautiful. He crystal clear blue eyes make my heart skip a beat when I look at her. She is very smart, almost as smart as me, and she makes me mad, but I still like her. She made me very mad when she decided to go to the dance with Connor, but when she said she was exactly ready for a relationship, that made me happy. Even though she's not ready for a relationship, I know she's thinking about one.

I'm wondering why she won't just tell me she likes me. I need to hear it, so I won't have to keep telling myself she likes me, I'll know she likes me. It's really hard to be next to her and not tell her how much I like her. Sometimes, it just wants to pop out of me, but I don't want to scare her. I'm not going to lie; I think I'm in love with her because I've never felt this way about anyone before. A warm feeling goes through me when I see her, and I know that's not normal. I'm a guy I shouldn't feel this way about some girl, but she's not just any girl, she's the girl.
