He shook his head, "Ruined any chance? Miley, there's no way you ruined anything. You're perfect." He said.
"Perfect?" I laughed sarcastically, "That's funny, Nick, really, but I am anything but perfect. You, though, you are perfect. You've got everything. You're richer than anyone I know, and you've got everything anyone could ever want. No matter how you look, you look amazing, and no matter what you're doing, you're interesting, and no matter who you're with, you make them look less attractive by 100 and 10 percent. You always look perfect, act perfect, and are perfect!" I said, "And I'm no where close, Nick! Why would you even ask me out for tonight?"
He sighed, "Wanna go for a walk or something? We need to be somewhere we can talk privately."
I shrugged, "My dad will kill me. Let's go." I said, walking over to the sideway that ran across the woods behind the restaurant.
He smiled, "You see, that's what I love. I love a girl that loves adventure and laughing and having fun. I love a girl who knows who she is. I love a girl who doesn't change for anyone and doesn't want to be anyone other than who she is. That's you! You're awesome, and you're strong, and you know who you are, and you don't want to change. Not even for someone who's famous, right?"
I couldn't believe that he was trying to make me feel this good, "Yeah, I guess you're right, but that's not something to be proud of. I'm stubborn and I'm not changing. Woo, hoo."
He laughed, "And there's that sense of humor!" He looked at me, "And there's something about you that attracts me to you. Don't get me wrong; you're gorgeous, Miley, but I've met some of the most beautiful girls to ever walk this planet. I've met girls with eyes that will pierce your heart, and I've thought I was in love with some of them. I mean, there are girls out there that are so pretty that they make me want to stab myself to make sure that I can still feel things other than them. I've been with girls that are too beautiful for words..."
"And now that you've spent time with me, you think I'm nothing but a bland piece of bread, right? I'm nothing special." I said, glumly.
He laughed, "No, that's the complete opposite of what I think of you! I think you're amazing, and I think you're special and funny, and sweet, and kind, and I think you're fun. Heck, I've only spent two dates with you, and I'm already falling head over heels for you."
I stopped walking, and I looked at him, "What?"
He smiled, "I said... I... I said that... uhh..." He was so cute when he was nervous. That just goes to show that people aren't always as they seem on the television screen. He's not a superhero, and he's not invincible. He gets nervous around people too! "Miley," He said, taking my hands in his, "I said that I've only spent a minimum amount of time with you, and you're already making my head go funny. Everything about you is like food to me. It's what is keeping me going. You're making me think funny things, you're making me see funny things, and you're everywhere I look. You're changing what I do. You're making me think that I'm not good enough. I've never had anyone do that to me before. You're so real that I'm fake. You're so perfect that I'm disgusting. You're making me fall head over heels for you, and I know that sounds so corny, but it's the truth, and I know you probably don't feel the same way about me, because odds are, you've got a boyfriend, and many guys lined up to date you, but I want to spend time with you. I want you to feel the same way I feel." He said.
I was speechless, and he had just poured out all of his feelings out to me, and I was just standing there, not talking, not doing anything, with the worst expression on my face. My mouth was wide open and my eyebrows were scrunched up in a frown and I'm sure I looked angry.
"I knew you wouldn't feel the same way about me." He said, laughing, "Can't believe I thought I had a chance." He looked me in the eyes again, and I melted once more, "From the first moment that I saw you when you walked up to me, I was just in shock, in awe. I loved feeling that way. I loved thinking about you."
