AN: HI. I'm finally updating! OK in italics during this chapter is the phone conversation between Pyro and Elizabeth.

I gave him time. But now I need to talk to him. I found this letter to me from John. By found, I mean it was in this diary. I need to know how this got here. More importantly, why it's here. But I might be able to figure that one out myself. The letter talks about true feelings and his love for me. I need to call him. Now.

John: Hello?

Elizabeth: Hi John.

John: Um, hi. What's up?

Elizabeth: I found this letter in your handwriting. It was in my diary. How did it get there?

John: Oh, you're good Mystique. She must have snuck in with it. Look, after you came by, I sat down and wrote that, not intending to send. She must have come in my room and taken it. I haven't been there all day. Sorry.

Elizabeth: No, it fine. At least now I know. I'll let you go.

John: Wait. If you're not busy Friday, maybe we could go to dinner. Last time we saw each other it wasn't very good. How about it?

Elizabeth: Um, sure. See you then.

John: OK. Bye.

Elizabeth: Bye.

He just asked me out! It's no wonder! This letter has things like "I think I'm in love with you, Liz" and "I doubt you love me. If you do, tell me" and other things like that. Oh my favorite "When I say love, I mean as more than a friend" .

The truth: I'm in love with him, too.
