He had a barrier around his heart. It'd been there for as long as he could remember. He didn't know the reason why he put it up, he just knew that it was there to keep certain things out.
Sadness. Heartache. Loneliness. And anything else that could hurt him.
But then she showed up.
Her. With her cheery attitude and bright smile and golden hair and sapphire eyes.
She popped up out of nowhere and somehow along the way managed to break through his personal Great Wall of China.
He doesn't understand it. Why, out of every other person in the universe, why was she the only one who managed to creep under his skin and into his heart?
It confuses and angers and intrigues him all the same. He wishes that he never met her. If she hadn't been a part of his life, then he'd still be the cold, distant, untouchable boy he once was.
But no. She is a part of his life, a part of him. And because she managed to knock down the blockade surrounding his heart, she turned him into the emotional, confused, and semi-happy man he now is.
He has yet to figure out if he loves her or hates her for it.
A/N: Man, it's been forever since I updated. Hope you all enjoyed my little drabble! Oh, and FYI, I'll be posting the D installment of ABC series very, very soon. So be on the look out for it! Review please!
