Author's Note: Sorry the last chapter was short so I decided to go ahead and post the next chapter!

After Jane had run off I'd gone home. Why couldn't I have just told her like I'd planned? What was I so afraid of? The worst that could happen was Jane tell me she didn't feel that way about me. But, that would've been bad. If I told her I was in love with her and she wasn't things would be awkward, and I didn't want that to happen. But, what if she felt the same way? No, she couldn't. She would've said something. Jane had never been one to keep something from me. I remembered back to when Tommy had made me realize I was in love with Jane.
"In case tomorrow doesn't go the way you're hoping, you should tell her." he'd said, completely sure of himself.
"T-tell her what?" I'd asked him confused. I'd had absolutely no idea what he was talking about.
"Tell her that you love her." he'd told me, as if it was so obvious. Like he was never as sure of himself as he was then. In that moment something clicked. Like all the pieces in a jigsaw puzzle finally went into place. Like a light blub in my head turned on. I knew that he was right. It was in that moment that I knew with all my heart I was in love with Jane. It wasn't just some silly crush it was love. It was something deeper than anything I'd felt before. I'd played it off like he was crazy. I shook my head at him and gave him a even more confused look.
"Jane's my best friend Tommy."
He didn't buy it. Not even for a second. He'd laughed and said,
"I know I may not be the best older brother but even I can see it. Ever since you were this big it's always been Jane." he stuck his left hand down to right below his waist, about the height I would have been when I was five.
I'd looked down at the ground and smiled, a big lovestruck smile. I knew he was right. Just like him I'd never been so sure of anything in my entire life. I was in love with Jane Quimby. I wanted to shout it to the world. Let everyone know the truth. But, I didn't. She needed to be the first one I told. Nothing matter now except for telling her.
"I have to go." I'd told him. I had to get out of there and tell her. It was the only thing that mattered. I knew he'd know what I was talking about. He raised an eyebrow at me then he smiled at me. I knew he was happy for me. I'd be happy for him to if he was in love. He kept smiling as I struggled to quickly put on my worn leather jacket and tie my shoes. I was in such a hurry I couldn't find the keys to the beast. I search on the ground but it wasn't there. Then, I heard to sound of keys jingling. I looked up and there was Tommy, the keys in his hand.
"I know you do." I grabbed the keys from him and gave him a brotherly hug.
"Thank you." I said patting his shoulder and running out of the house.
If only I hadn't been so stupid. When I'd got there I'd started to tell her but then Jeremy walked in. I'd been so stupid to think that they were together. If only I'd just said it. Even after she told me that her and Jeremy weren't together I didn't tell her. When we were laying in her bed and she'd asked me about it I still hadn't told her. But, I should have. But, there was still time. I had to tell Jane. Now. It was now or never.
Author's Note: So, this chapter was shorter than the last but at least you guys get two updates in one day! I'll work on the next chapter later. It's getting kinda hard since I'm so depressed! And, you all know why! Jane by design was cancelled yesterday! Well, we know abcfamily is getting totally screwed for making the biggest mistake of their life! But, I heard somewhere an old show that was on abcfamily called Greek got cancelled and then it got brought back for another season because of all the petitions and riots and stuff. So, sign petitions, do whatever it takes to bring back Jane by design! Anyway, just wanted to say apologize if this chapter was bad. I don't know anything about being in love since I'm 13 and never ever had a boyfriend before! So, tell me if it sucked or if it was good!
