4. Confusing feelings.
"Chelsea!"
She jumps and turns to see who it is. Her sad large face disappears and a bright beautiful smile makes his day.
"Brad, what are you doing here?"
He looks at her beautiful face and notices it's not the usual Chelsea's face. There's the smile, but she is pale and is wearing sunglasses in a rainy day.
"I've been trying to talk to you all day, but I looked for you everywhere this morning and didn't find you!"
"I wasn't here. Couldn't sleep last night so I fell sleep this morning and when I woke up it was already too late!"
"Why couldn't you sleep last night?"
Chelsea gets nervous and starts to move her lips trying to say something but nothing comes out.
"I…I went to Ben's party and went back home at 4 am!" She lies.
"I was there too, How come I didn't see you?"
"I ..I don't know!"
"So are we going out this Friday?"
"You know we are!" She says in a playful tone of voice.
She looks down and he lifts her chin carefully to admire her and break her shyness. He takes her glasses off and kisses her on the cheek. "You look even more beautiful now!" he whispers into her ear.
She smiles while he starts to play with the glasses. "You know what? I'm gonna take these with me; I don't like to see you with them. They look really sexy on you but your shinning eyes are my life!"
Chelsea smiles disappears revealing a serious girl, she bites her lips and looks at his wanting to kiss them.
"Can we go out sooner?" He says.
"I'm sorry Brad! I can't, I have to study for math's exam and I have to work on my project".
"What about tomorrow?"
"I have to dinner with Eddie and Raven, its Eddie's birthday!"
"Ok, I understand!" He looks disappointed.
"Look, I would go out with you on Thursday, but…" She sighs. "Eddie means a lot to me too, he is one of my best friends and I have to be with him on his birthday!" She takes his hand trying to make him feel better. "So I guess we'll meet this Friday?"
"Yes! Please!"
She smiles.
"I better go; I have lots of stuff to do!" She kisses him on the cheek.
Chelsea walks away, turns to see him and then waves at him. He touches his heart, she smiles and then turns to keep walking, opens the door and gets out of the school.
On her way home she finds Eddie playing basketball. He is really concentrated and focused in his movements. He has always been a great player. Chelsea could see him for hours and never get tired. All the tricks he does are amazing and he seems to improves more and more each day.
"Hey Eddie!" She says carrying a couple of books in her arms and her hand bag.
"Chels!" He smiles and notices her sadness. He keeps playing and making little jokes to make her feel better, but she doesn't laugh. "Something is definitely wrong with her" he though.
"So How are things with you and… Brad is his name?" He knows that's his name coz he has been studying with him almost all his life but Eddie tries to sound not interested at all, when in real life he just feels worried and is dieing inside.
"We just talked. He is such a sweet guy and he is so… hot!" she giggles.
"Is nice to see you smiling, you have been so sad today!"
"Yeah, well, I've been studying a lot, I'm just tired, not sad!" another lie to feel bad about, but she had to say that. "It's not time to brake hearts" she though. But what she didn't know is that, with every single look she gives to Brad, with every word she exchanges with him or just by mentioning his name she was breaking another's person heart. A heart she would never like to brake.
"Is that true?". Eddie asks knowing Chelsea was obviously lying.
"Yes!". She says firmly.
"Ok!" He says and just keeps playing.
"Eddie!"
"Yeah?".
"You know, now I'm going out with Brad, Raven has Devon but I haven't seen you with a girlfriend in a long time. You used to go out with lots of girls".
"So?"
"Don't you like anybody? Did you already go out with all the girls of the city? Or do you have a secret relationship with a girl and you haven't said anything?" She asks with curiosity.
"No!" He says.
"That's weird, specially coming from you!"
"Well…" He stops playing and turns to see her. He sits beside her, and when he tries to say his first word, he starts to speak a weird language, with no sense at all and just keeps looking away avoiding her eyes.
"Is anything wrong?" She asks but all she can hear is the sound of the wind and the leaves moving.
He turns to see her, not sure about what he is going to say.
"Eddie! You can tell me anything, I'm your best friend. Trust me!"
They both look at each others eyes. She thinking his best friend has problems. And he is thinking about how sad and worried her eyes are but how beautiful they look. "She is so perfect!" He though. "If I just could kiss her. Those shining hazel eyes, her long red hair, her soft and delicate skin, her red provocative lips, not to mention the rest. Everything about her is driving me crazy…but I can't tell her, I can't"
"Chelsea…I…I think I…I like this girl but she doesn't like me. She is an amazing person, the most beautiful woman I've ever seen. But she doesn't feel the same way about me. She likes other kind of guys and she is just my friend, such a good friend that I'm afraid to tell her the truth about how I feel!"
"What a b...!" She says furious.
"Hey!"
"I'm sorry, is just that ...I don't understand!. I mean, you are such a sweet guy, the best person I've ever know. You are my best friend and I know you so well, I know that girl would love you. She should see the real you, you know?. Show her who you are, she will fall for you soon. Trust me. You ll see!".
Eddie smiles. "Thank you Chelsea! I didn't know you think all that about me!"
"Eddie that's nothing. There are so many good things I could say about you, there are millions!"
"One more reason to love her like I do" He though.
"Eddie, Who's this girl you are talking about? Is it Raven?"
"No! She is a girl I met in math class last year!" He lied.
"Oh! What's the loser's name?"
"There comes another lie" he tough. "Karen!"
"Karen?" She looks intrigued. "I don't know her, first time I hear about her!" she says trying to think if she has ever met the girl.
"Chelsea, I'm sorry but I have to go and work on my science project. Thanks for everything!" He kisses her cheek and they hug.
"No problem! That's what friends are for. Remember I'm always going to be there for you!"
"Thanks, you know that too. Bye!"
"Bye!" She says and sees him walking away.
"What am I thinking about?"
"I'm always going to be there for you?" She sighs, looks to the sky and then closes her eyes.
" I wish I could tell you the truth!"
