It was just another school day when I overheard Ian's name in the hallway.

"Yeah, Ian's sick today. They said that he might have the flu or something."

"Really? I hope he gets better, schools no fun without him and Anthony making fools out of their selves."

I couldn't help but grin at that comment, but I was still worried about Ian so I decided that after school I would go to Ian's house and see how he was feeling.

Finally school ended, it was waaaaayy longer than usual. I guess that guy was right; it isn't fun without him and Anthony acting up. I arrived at Ian's house and knocked on the door. Ian's mom answered the door.

"Oh hey Cheyenne! Are you here to see Ian?"

"Yes! How is he feeling? I heard he had the flu."

"No, he just broke his nose yesterday and he had to go the hospital, he's up in his room but I'm just going to warn you that they had to give him some pretty strong medicine for them to put his nose back into place so he might say some crazy stuff!"

"Ha, ok! Thanks!"

I went up to Ian's room and as I got to his door I could hear him, he was calling out my name.

"Cheyenne! Cheyenne!"

I went into his room, knocking first of course.

"Ian, your decent right? I came here to see how you were doing."

"Cheyenne? Is that you!? I've missed you!" he said as he got up from his bed hugging me.

"Really? It's only been like, two days."

"So, whenever I don't see you I go crazy. You're always on my mind."

"What? Are you ok Ian, maybe it's this medicine getting to you?" I said blushing.

"I'm being for real. I didn't want to have to admit this but….. I love you Cheyenne, when I first laid my eyes on you I loved you. I guess it's love at first sight right?"

I really didn't know what to say; for one thing I was in shock because I couldn't believe he just said that so I kind of just stood there. What should I say? If I admit my feelings, will he even remember and is this just the medicine? I guess I should just admit it, if he doesn't remember, than I guess it'll be fine.

"Ian, I love you too. I love how you care for me, protect me, and get jealous at times, your laugh, your smile, and how you always seem to make the most boring things funny! You're the first person I've actually loved, you probably won't remember anything I'm telling you and that's ok, maybe it just means that it wasn't the right time to tell you this, but I hope you will remember."

"He walked over to me and he just hugged me, and we stood like that for a few minutes.

"Cheyenne?" Ian asked.

"Yes?"

"How long have you loved me?"

"Well, do you remember that time when I was in the bathroom crying at school?"

"Yeah, how can I forget? I was so worried about you."

"When you were asking all those questions like if I was okay or if someone hurt me, I knew you actually cared about me."

"Really? Ha, why were you crying anyway? I know you said it was because you said you were tired but you're not the best liar Cheyenne." He said grinning.

"Ha, I know, I'm horrible at it! Well, the real reason was because I thought I wasn't good enough for you because I saw you hugging on your e-girlfriend and I didn't think there was a place for me in your life."

"How could you think that? I'll always love you no matter what. Don't forget that."

"I really don't know why I thought that now. Thanks Ian, and I'll always love you too." I said.

Then he leaned down and kissed me, he actually kissed me! I really wish he wasn't going to forget this. But then his mom came bursting in the room.

"Hey, you guys want some cookies while their hot? Oh, ummm, sorry… uhhh..."

"Mom! How many times do I have to tell you to knock before coming into my room!"

"I said I was sorry! There are cookies down in the kitchen!" she said as she left.

"Sorry about that."

"No, it's ok, your mom's cool."

"Want to get some cookies?"

"Ha, yeah, sure!" I said.

"Okay, lets go then." He said grabbing my hand, grasping it tightly.

Is this really happening? This could just be the medicine but I don't really care, I'm partially glad that he broke his nose because this was one of the best days ever!
