Sooooooooo... HI HI! I finally wrote something... YYYAAAAYYYY!
Soooooooooooo.. review, please? I don't know, just read. I dare you!
"Philby, when are we going to tell people about us?"
Philby's eyes bugged out of his head, at that question.
"What? Charlene, the whole point of a secret relationship is that it's kept a secret!"
"I know, I know, it's just… I hate that Willa keeps trying to flirt with you all the time."
She shyly whispered.
"Hey," Philby wrapped his arms around her, "you think I like seeing Maybeck with you? He's always hitting on you."
"He's hitting on me because he thinks I'm single."
Philby sighed
"I thought we agreed we weren't going to say anything, so that the two of them wouldn't get hurt."
"Is lying to them really protecting them?" Charlene countered.
"Maybe not, but would you rather purposely hurt them?"
Charlene pushed him off of her.
"Philby, Willa kissed you!" she screamed.
"Yes, SHE kissed ME! And I didn't let it go on for more then a second! Maybeck held your hand the other day and you didn't even try and stop him!"
"You know what, why don't I go be Maybeck's girlfriend? At least he'll hold my hand in public!"
"Fine! Go, do what you want, see if I care!"
With tears in her eyes, Charlene grabbed her backpack and ran out the room. In her rush to leave, her notebook fell out of her bag.
"Wait, Charlene!"
He ran after her, but she was already gone.
'Wait, what just happened?' he thought to himself. 'I mean… what? I wonder if she's actually gonna go to Maybeck. Wait, did we just break up? And what is this?'
He stared at the notebook.
'I probably shouldn't look through this, it might be personal. But… what if she talks about me in it? I mean, that technically would give me permission to look, right?'
'Oh, who am I kidding? I'm gonna look in this and talking to myself isn't going to change that.'
'Ok, let's see what we got here.'
The world is your oyster
And you are it's pearl
Hidden beneath it's unpleasant shell
Mounds of rubble piled atop
But you will be seen
Like a diamond in the ruff
'Oh my gosh, she actually quoted Aladdin.' Philby chuckled.
'Does she have anything…. Lovey dovey in here?'
Philby flipped through some pages until something caught his eye.
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry, baby
So sorry
Come back to me, please
You hurt me so bad
But I'm still begging on my knees
For you
Wanting another chance to hold you
Just waiting for your life to get old
And see you running back to me
Dreaming of that wonderful day
That it will be you and me
Wanting to feel your kiss on my lips
Your arms holding me safe
Your eyes bright and beautiful
You smiling at me
I hope that day will come soon
I pray I'll see you again
Please don't leave me alone
'I'm guessing this was a time when we were fighting, but I would never leave her. Well…. today was just really bad….'
I would smile for you, my love
I can, I will
I would cry for you, my love
I swear, I do
I would scream at you, my love
I'm sorry, I will
I would laugh with you my love
I could, I could
I would die for you, my love
I would, I would
I would love you, my love
I do, I do
'Well, she doesn't hate me! At least, she didn't hate me….'
'This one looks really long.'
When you first told me you loved me
I didn't believe it
We are both too young to know
What love is
Too naïve to really see
The meaning behind
Those three small words
Yet so careless to throw them around
Like they mean nothing
When they mean everything
I should have told you
When we met
Not to like me
Not to notice me
I should have said
'Don't tell me you care
Cause you'll hurt me, in the end'
When you said you loved me
You lied
You didn't love me, at the time
But everyday now, I get to see
You falling in love with me
To be honest
I wish you wouldn't love me
I hoped and prayed that it would just be infatuation
That you'd just get over me
And move on
But, now I'm in far too deep
I'm scared that I'll drown
If you let me go
So, I'll hold on for dear life
And hope that you won't let me fall
Into this dark hole
I've created for myself
I should have told you
When we met
Not to like me
Not to notice me
I should have said
'Don't tell me you care
Cause you'll hurt me, in the end'
When you said you loved me
You lied
You didn't love me, at the time
But everyday now, I get to see
You falling in love with me
I hate this
I hate that I trust you
I hate that I care about you
I hate that I believe you
I hate how comfortable I am around you
I hate how I can't help but smile
When I see you
I hate that I need you
I hate that I love you
"What are you doing?"
"Charlene, hi! What are YOU doing?"
Charlene tentatively stepped into the room.
"I came back for my notebook. Why are you reading that? It's personal."
She tried to take the book from him, but he quickly stepped forward and kissed her.
"I love you."
No more words were needed. They both smiled at each other and continued kissing
