Friends

To think, it all started with us as "enemies". She thought that I was evil, and I was just doing what I thought that I had to do to get by. If you would have told me two months ago that I would end up here, surrounded by these people who care about me, I would have laughed in your face. I keep thinking that I'm in a dream and that I'm going to wake up any minute and find myself back in my previous, scaly form. But the days have passed by, and I have yet to wake up from this wonderful dream.

Everybody has been really friendly to me, and has taught me fascinating things about earth. Like Will for instance; He has taught me about fashion and these so called "moves". He told me that "the chicks dig guys with smooth moves," whatever that means. All this "flirting" doesn't mean much to me, not as much as it seems to mean to Will. I really don't care about any of those girls; I don't even know any of their names. The only one I really care about impressing is…her. Ever since I saw her face, her smile, her eyes…I haven't been able to get her out of my head, even for a slight minute. Everything reminds me of her, and I always hear her laughter in my ears. Whenever she is around me, I always get tongue tied and start to sweat. I have never been this way around anyone before, especially no girl. She's just…special to me. My stomach feels like I'm being tickled from the inside whenever I see her or think of her. I can't believe I almost ruined my chance of seeing her again, twice. It's hard to imagine that I was that stupid to think that leaving her and the rest of the team was the right thing to do. But, when she touched my hands, with her soft, velvet ones, I guess my mouth formed a mind of its own. I'm glad that it did though. However, I can't tell her any of this. We've only really been around each other for a few weeks. I'm just privileged to call her a friend. That's one step up from an acquaintance. And I'm happy with that. Anything that makes us closer is good. Yes, I'm glad my foolish words and pride didn't get in the way of us just being friends.

Authors note: Ronny and Tyzonn are one of my favorite couples and I'm really excited about this challenge. This particular takes place after the episode "Just like me".
