These Are My Confessions
"Well..." That look on her face is making my knees buckle. What is it with this girl? I only met her today and I already have a crush on her-...so that's it...I like her...now I KNOW I'm in trouble. How in the hell did I get myself into this mess? A better question, however, would be, how in the hell do I get myself OUT of this mess? No way can I tell her that I like her. For one thing, she won't likely believe me anyway. And on the off chance she does believe me, not only does she hate me, it'll make being her roommate REALLY awkward. Well, here goes something.
"Well, to be honest, I've always been kinda shy around girls. They generally avoid me, so I don't have a lot of experience interacting with them." I figured this should work. It's more or less the same problem she said she had with me. She leans in a little closer and looks deeper into my eyes, and my whole nervous system is going overtime. "I don't believe you." Well, that explains that. "I can tell that you're lying. Now I'm giving you one more chance to tell me the truth. Why…are…you...blushing?" Damn this girl was good! This is bad, very bad. If she leans in much closer, someone would swear we were kissing. Oh no! My face is heating up again! What do I do? Now she's glaring at me. "You're blushing again." Let's see if the pity card will work.
"Y-Yue, why can't you just leave it alone?" She narrows her eyes a bit. "Because I'm curious. Now are you gonna tell me or not?" I really, really, REALLY don't wanna tell her. But I may as well come clean so I can have a good reason to avoid her. A damn good reason. So I inhale and exhale through my nose and finally come clean. "Alright...I've had a crush on you since I first laid eyes on you. That's why I blush every time we touch or get close to each other, much like we are now." Her eyes widen and she backs up into the bookshelf across from us. "...A-are you serious? If this is some kind of sick joke, I'm not laughing." I can't help but roll, my eyes. "I don't joke when it comes to matters of the heart, Yue. As ridiculous and pointless as it seems, I actually like you...a lot. So go on and tell me how there's no way in hell you'd ever date me so we can get these books sorted already."
I turn away from embarrassment, then hear the sounds of footsteps getting closer and the next thing I know, she's turning my face to look at her. "Now what makes you think that's what I'm gonna say?" I look a little surprised by her actions...and by what she said. "Well, because no girl wants to go out with a freak like me." Her eyes widen a bit. "Freak?" "Well, all the girls I know consider guys who's minds aren't in the gutter at all times freaks of nature and should be avoided at all times." She leans in and kisses me on the lips and my body is going nuts! After a couple of seconds, I finally close my eyes and lean into the kiss and hug her waist while she puts her hands on my chest. As I hold her a bit tighter, she grips my shirt tightly in her hands, and before long, we break the kiss for air, but we keep holding each other and looking in each other's eyes.
She finally speaks. "I guess the feeling was mutual." Wow! Now I'm happy I came here! But something puzzles me. "Then why did you act like you hated me?" This time, it's her turn to blush. "Well, because I didn't wanna admit it until I figured out if you liked me or not." I couldn't help but chuckle at that. "So you hated me to hide the fact that you like me?" She nods with an embarrassed look on her face. "Pretty much." I couldn't help but smile, so I suggest, "Can we just forget that happened and just be friends? Or a couple, if I'm not pushing my luck?" She smiles at me. "What do you think?" We lean in and kiss again. As I hold her close, I can't help but get over how small warm she is. We slowly break the kiss and look at each other while smiling. "We're a couple now, aren't we?" She gives me a devilish smirk that almost makes my knees buckle. "Damn right, pretty boy." 'Pretty boy', huh? I could get used to that.
