Thank you for reading this story. If you are waiting for my other story "collapsed...", don't wrry imma update that tomorrow or saturday. . I'll try to update this more often, but this is second to my first one, so don't get me wrong, but i have to update this less than the other one. Anywho...the story may not sound like the first one, because i was in a different mood: more of a melancholy/ happy mood: then...i wish i can write something like i did. lol. Well, enjoy. (A/N: this story is loosely based on my true occurence from me, except i'm going to change the story dramtically in later chaps.)

The Poem

The bell had rang and everyone had gotten up and had left the room, however, he didn't. Phil had still sat there with tears in his eyes. He knew that she would be in his next period class, so unwilling, he had not gotten up.Fear and nervousness had struck him. He did not know what to do.

'Should I give her the poem note, and in someway, tell her how I had felt for her; or I should not?"

What he had planned could have affect his relationship with his best friend. Results could either be thatshe and himself could be "something more" and would be together, or still be friends but with the acknowledgment of how he had felt. He had still sat there with a secret that he wanted to reveal, yet his mind was blank until, he had memorized what she had once said to him, a while ago...

"Phil, you can tell me anything. Your secret is safe with me."

He had remembered it well, it was day that he had told her his second biggest secret of his origin, but that was not his first biggest secret; the secret of his love to her.

"I shouldn't keep a secret from her, no matter how stupid or true it is..." he had said to himself.

He had only sat there for ten second, until, he had gotten the courage to move. He had gotten up, had wiped the tears in his eyes, and had started walked toward the video lab. The bell had rang and he was late. He rushed into the room, and then at the point, he again had saw the beautiful angel sitting at the couch. She had looked at him and smiled, while he looked at her with an encouraged smile.


"Hey Phil, you're late." She had said with a stern, yet sarcastic voice.

"No, the bell had rang before I had got here."

I had replied with a noticeably, but, brief laugh. She had smiled back at me and had gotten up from her seat.

"Well, when you're ready we can start with the selection of our next report for tomorrow, and record today's report."

I nodded at her and follow her. She had walked to the other side of the room to get the list from the self, and had point to all of the possible choices for us to choice from.But in truth, I didn't look at the list. I had stared at her face. So cute, so beautiful, so attractive, and I couldn't keep my eyes away from her.

"Phil, you there?" she said and waived at me to get my attention. Luckily, I had began to look at her with full awareness now, and had realized that I just had dazed out for a sec.

"Yes? Oh yeah, the topic! Whatever you like is fine with me." I said.

"Phil, I don't know. It all like good to me, you chose." She smiled.

I then looked at the list, and there was a lot to chose from. I didn't know what to chose either. I just looked for the one that her and me would be together, in the report. But there wasn't a lot that I could interact with her, only just me in the background, recording her beauty...Wait, there's one.

"How about this one?" I asked her.

She looked at with interest, "Persuasion, By Friends or Strangers?, sounds good. Hmm, it may even be fun, but I need a friend to help me...Phil?"

She had said with a tone that was so delicate and so innocent. She smile at me with lightness in her eyes. I nodded and grinned, as I had expected her to ask me.

"Of course, I'll do anything for you, I'm you're friend, aren't I?" I replied.

"Yeah, you're my best guy-friend!" she said energetically, "And of course, I'm going to ask Via too."

Oh, well at least she had thought of me first 'guy-friend', I was expecting only myself, but whatever, as long I was with her, I guess.

"Well, if you have anything else on your mind, let's start with the afternoon news."

"Well, I have..." I reached toward the poem thats folded in my pockets, however, a strong fear had hit me. I retreated my hands back up to my sides. "Um, never mind."

"Okay, whatever," she had said to me. "Let's go."

She walked toward her desk and I had went behind the camera. She had began talking and I had recorded her. I didn't know what had overcame me back there.Why didn't I give it to her, or at least tell her something?

With a couple of minutes of recording her report, she had finished. I had told her it was one of her best work, actually in truth, all of her works were the best. She thanked me and she headed to the couch again and I followed her liked a lost puppy.

"Phil, if you don't mind, can you get like, at least,two people to be our "stranger" for the report. Of course, I can't know them or talk to them yet, so you have to get them, during lunch, while I'll edit today's report. So that means you have to have lunch without me, is that okay with you?"

"Yeah, sure." I didn't want to really, I had wanted to eat lunch with her, but now I'm going to be only with Owen for lunch.

"Thanks Phil, you don't know how much you mean to me." She said to me with a smile again.

I looked at her with awe again. What did she had meant? Did she meant itin the same way that I had felt for her? I didn't know.

"You don't know much you meant to me, also," I said to myself, quietly.

"What's that?" She asked me, as she had heard me saying something.

"Oh, it's nuttin." I grinned at her, and she stare at me for sec, and look down again. She then gotten up, leaving her bag behind.

"Hey I'm going to my locker now. And since we don't have class together, after lunch and I have to retake Messerschmitt's test, I won't be out of school, until like an hour. You can walk home without me today."

"I can wait for you, you know?" I said.

"No, it's fine Phil. You don't have to wait for me."

"I want to though."

"Phil, it's okay, just go home. Maybe afterward, I'll call you up to do something."

"Fine, if that's what you really want."

Then she nodded and had started to walk out of the room, "Bye, see ya around"

"Ya, see ya."

She had left the room and I was by myself, or at least until the bell for lunch rings. I had realized that I still had the piece of paper in my pocket. I took the folded piece and opened it a bit. Staying at it...

"Your smile is like the sun..."

The bell had rang and I stopped reading. This was my chance to slip this paper to her. I looked around to see if Keely was coming back. There was no sign of her, yet. So, I quickly walked over to her bag and stuffed the note inside of it. I walked away to lunch, looking back at the bag...


"Okay, I'm back now. What to do first?" she had said, as she had entered the empty room. She grabbed out her bag.

"Hmm, let's see. Let's look for the outline for the report tomorrow."

She searched her bag for the folder with the reports. She had managed to find it, however, the folder itself was too big for her bag. She had tried to pull it out but it wouldn't budge. She had kept on tugging on the folder, until, everything in her bag had came out; papers, folders, pens, pencils, and the folded piece of paper had been spread out on the floor.

"I knew I shouldn't have kept the folder in here," as she gathered her stuff. "I should have just listen to Phil, and kept the folder in the room. Man, he always know the right thing to do."

She had manage to put all her stuff into her bag, until, she had noticed the folded piece of paper. She didn't know where had the paper came from, as she never had saw it before. She picked it up, along with her folder, and placed the folder on the desk. She opened the paper and noticed it was his handwriting. AndShe read to herself:

"Your smile is like the sun

it shines and warms my heart.

Every time it is revealed

the world stops just for me.

Your laugh and smile,

could bring all sense of melancholy

to become a world of bliss

Your smile is like the morning dew

Comes unexpected, yet it is there,

always in the sunny morning.

You are just perfect.

The way you act,

the things that you do

are the paragon to all

I wish I could see that smile

more often,

The smile you have, shows the true you

It shows your personality

that Ihad love about you

It makes me ecstatic

just to be near you.

You are an angel

With grace and beauty like no other

you had change my life.

I didn't really know how to tell you, about this

Life was miserable and long, yet

Only you had made it so comforting.

Viewing your beauty

Everyday, makes my day and life just complete.

Keely, you don't know how much you mean to me

Even though, you are very special, more than

Everything that's in life. And to the depths of my heart,

Lying with my head down, as my feelings for you grows.

You are the one that I love."

She had stopped reading. She was speechless and very shocked.

"Love" she thought. "What's does this really mean? Does he really love me? Phil, my friend? The boy that I only see as a friend?"

She had sat there with the paper in her hand, not knowing what to do. She, in her head, had not liked him that way, but he did though. She didn't know what to do with this paper. She had became quiet for several minutes, looking over the paper again.

"Oh Phil..."
