Claire's pov:

My mind went all fuzzy as soon as Michael's lips came crashing onto mine. I've never been kissed before but this sure was one of the most amazing kisses ever. But I reluctantly pulled away, I mean; I didn't even know the guy! Sure he owned this house and he was drop dead gorgeous, but he only played 10 seconds of a new song (which sounded beautiful by the way), and then suddenly kissed me.

When I pulled away, I saw confusion pass through his face, I gave him a small, apologetic smile. 'Sorry. I j-just… I guess I'm, umm…' I mumbled, stuttering.

'I get it.' Michael replied, turning away from me and putting his hands on his head, as if he was about to rip his hair out. 'You like Shane, don't you?' He sounded like he was accusing me. But what for? I just want to get to know him before anything happens between us. And what the hell was it about Shane? He probably just thinks of me as a vulnerable, fragile little girl. Yes I think Shane's hot too, but I think that we'll be better off as just friends.

'What?! No! Why does it have to be that if I don't let you kiss me, then I automatically like Shane? I like you, Michael. I just want to get to know you better before anything happens. Please understand.' I asked him, with pure hope in my voice.

Michael sighed then took his seat again in his arm chair, and picked up his guitar. I could tell that it was his comfort. He then started playing the song he started earlier. About 2 minutes later he stopped and said, 'I understand and I totally agree with you, it's just that, I've never felt this way for someone before, and you are the first ever person to inspire me to compose a song.' He was silent for about 5 seconds before he spoke again. 'You know the song that I just played?' I nodded, 'well, I wrote it because it was for you. It's how I feel about you.' He looked straight into my eyes with no hesitation, waiting for my response.

A tear rolled down my cheek. It was the sweetest thing anyone had said to me. You probably think its lame, but maybe I've finally I found someone who loves me for me. But who would fall for me? I'm just a weak girl that can't stand up for herself, why would someone like Michael want me? Was this meant to be a practical joke? All of these questions were running around in my head.

I couldn't help but blurt out 'Are you trying to play a joke on me? Make me think that someone might actually like me? Well, let me tell you; joke's over!' I said my voice getting choked on my sobs. I had tears streaming down my face. 'I'm going to go.' I told him, making my way upstairs, to get my bag.

Before I got to the top, I felt someone grab hold of my arm. I turned around and Michael's nose was near enough touching mine. 'Claire.' He pleaded, 'I'm not the kind of guy that plays jokes like that. I don't use girls and then throw them away like trash. I'm not like most guys; I don't hurt girls for the sake of it. I'm just trying to tell you that I really like you, and that I want you to be mine, and mine only!'

I tried for a smile, but it was weak. I needed to think this through. I could tell that Michael was right about how he treats girls, but I had to think about what was best for me. And then Shane came into my mind, what was it about me liking Shane, anyway?

'I need to sleep and think about it. But before I go to bed, can I ask you one question please?' I asked softly, Michael nodded; one swift movement of his head. 'What did you mean when you asked if I liked Shane? What gave you that idea?' I saw him blush a little, which I thought was cute.

'I saw the way he looked at you today.' He told me then put his hand over his mouth. I knew right then that he was hiding something from me…
