A Promise Circle
This story is about Ruthie and Martin, and how they'll always be friends. However, they might turn into an "us," one day. I hope you read and review.
Prologue
As the lights shine in the window on an early morning in September, just another day of school, in which they all hate. Ruthie who now stands as a sophomore in the high school, still best friends with Martin Brewer, who has moved across the street since his dad came back from war in Iraq.
"Mom, have you seen my note book? It was black and it had my notes for math in it?" Ruthie asked as if she was very, very mad.
"Yeah I've seen it; I put it on the table over there." She said while pointing and making lunch at the same time.
As I went back up stairs to get all my books, and everything else I needed, then I went downstairs to eat breakfast. I'm going to walk over to Martin's house soon; he's going to give me a ride.
"Hey," Martin said with a smile on his face, looking at what Ruthie was wearing. He thought she looked beautiful. "Martin, stop, stop it. You can't like her, she's like your sister for Pete's sake," Martin told himself.
"Martin are you okay? You seem distracted?" Ruthie told him while he was still dazed off in his daydream of some short.
"Huh, what? Oh yeah, I'm fine. I was just thinking." He said while getting into the car and driving to the school.
Okay Martin, act cool. She's on to you, she knows something is up, just don't act strange. I can't do this, I like her, a lot, but she's like my sister. What would she think about me if I told her? I know, I know, I'll get paid back and regret it. I know I'll never get her, even though she is a great person. She's not like all the girls I've seen, she's different and unique. As a promise, I will always be Ruthie Camden's best friend, and I love her for that. She's the light of my day, she's my everything. Each time I see her, my heart melts.
We walk into the school, the day starts and the day goes on. I'm still thinking about Martin, I wonder what's wrong with him? Does his… no, can't be. Wait, can it? Can his dad have to go back to Iraq? No, he doesn't, I know he doesn't. Maybe he had a tough night, maybe no sleep? Ah, I should forget about it. Oh, there's Mac.
" Hey Mac," I said while walking over to his locker. He looked at me and smiled. I love his smile, it's so dreamy, and he's so cute. Too bad he thinks of me like a sister.
" Oh, hey Ruthie, what's up?" I asked while grabbing my text book and closing my locker.
" Ah, not much. I hate school, I want to go home, this is so boring. 10th grade Global History is so boring. They torture us!" I yelled and went into a laugh, we then started to laugh and walk to our classes.
Later that day, school ended, and I went to baseball practice. When I saw Ruthie, my heart melted, I love her, I think. She drives me crazy. She's so beautiful, she's everything a guy would want. I have to do good, I have to impress Ruthie. I grab a sip of water and go to my spot on the field.
Dear Ruthie,
Hi, I really like you, but I can't tell you. You drive me crazy each time I see you, and your smile is so beautiful. I'm crazy over you, very crazy. I always think about that one night, the night we spent together, alone, no one else, but you and I. Each time I see you, I always break down the courage I have had and I try to tell you from the bottom of my heart. I always tend to come back to this moment I spent with you. This one beautiful moment, just you and I. All I ever wanted was to be with you. I always wondered if you would love me how I love you. You see, you mean the world to me, and I want you in my life, and ever since you'd stepped into it, my life changed,
From, the boy who adores you.
