Chapter 4 / 8
A few days have passed since everyone found out. When she and along with the whole school had found out our little secret, about us. At first it hurt, carrying around not only guilt but shame as well. But now I don't care. I finally get to be with you openly and I don't have to be afraid, no more secrecy. I know what we did was wrong but there's an upside to it all and it's called you.
So many people had blamed me for what happened. They called me the hurtful names, looked at me with shame and anger in their eyes. When they thought of the word cheating, there was my picture. It got to me, knowing that they hardly blamed you, knowing they thought I seduced you, played with your mind but I didn't. It just happened. We fought, for the first time we fought and it was about them and their thoughts. Since when have I cared about what they thought of me? Of you? Of us?
But as quick as we fought, I ended it. You gave up your friends, gave up your title as star athlete, and gave up your popularity. Left the person who was known for the dating cheerleader and gave up being perfect. Instead become the one who loves the rocker, the art freak, and the outsider. You took my title and shared it with me, promising to stay right by my side no matter what.
The smile that I feared would be gone is still there and shining brighter then it ever has. Your eyes sparkle. Your happy, truly happy for the first time in ages because we're out and open, because you can be you without any limitations or masks and you give me the credit for it, for your happiness. No words can describe just how that makes me feel knowing I make you happy, make you smile, make you feel loved. Your love for me is something that I thought I could never experience. This is real love, the real thing.
As we sit here, outside the place that has shunned us, turned their backs on us, made us outsider, I see you smiling, drawing in your black art book that I gave you. If this is what it takes to be in love and to be with you, then I'm ready for it. People can hate me, people can forget all about me but if I still have you here next to me and we still have love between us then it's all worth it. It's you and me against them, you and me against the world.
