What is Maddie doing here? I thought that she was going home. But obviously not. Here is the problem, I didn't think that I would have to do this today. I wanted to work up to telling her and maybe tell her tomorrow or the next day. But all I know is that this might not end up so good. Tonight was suppose to be about celebrating. Celebrating that me and Luke finally figured out whats between us.
Maddie sits down next to Luke. She places her bag next to her on the floor.
"So I thought that you guys were working on Invisible Girl ."
Luke looked at me. He was probably wondering the same thing that I was wondering. Why did I have to tell her that?
Luke took a deep breath. Before taking his glance off of me hi nodded slightly.
"we finished early. So we thought that we would get something to eat."Luke told Maddie
Every time he lies for me it kills me inside. I cant let him do this. I don't want him to do this , lying for me ever again. \
"Um. Actually Maddie.."
I looked at Luke. He had a shocked expression on his face. I spent about a minute staring into his eyes. Then I turned and focused on Maddie.
"what were you going to say Noah?"
She asked touching my hand. I looked down at her hand. I took in a deep breath and looked up.
"Maddie we weren't working on invisible girl."
I said as I removed my hand from underneath hers.
"Then why did you tell me that you were"
"I wanted.. I uh.. Needed to talk to Luke." I told her.
"Oh. Is everything OK Noah?"
"Actually everything is fine but.." I said trailing off.
" But??" She asked.
I, one last time looked at Luke .I looked into his gorgeous eyes once again . They told me that I didn't have to do what I was about to do. I closed my eyes.
I came this far why would I stop now? So I thought for one more minute.
"Um. You know when we first met I have never met someone that ever understood my movie analogies. Then I met you and it was like we were the perfect match. But when I came to this town I was hiding a huge part of me. I was hiding something that I was ashamed of. I wanted to make my dad happy so I pushed my feelings aside and I focused on what he wanted for me. I know that there is no easy way in telling you this. They're was no easy way in accepting this. So I'm just going to tell you because you deserve to know. You deserved to know before we even started to go out."
"Noah? What are you talking about?"
"I never wanted to hurt you. I hated the thought that I was going to have to hurt you. That I was hurting you and you didn't know about it."
"OK. Noah you are starting to freak me out. SO just tell me."
"Well. Uh. Remember when you said that I have been unlike myself that you thought that something was wrong between me and Luke?"
"Yeah. I remember."
" OK. Well there was something wrong with me and Luke."
Maddie look from me to Luke.
"OK. But still I'm sure that there is more then that. What are you leaving out?" She said .
Is Maddie this slow? Can she not realize something that is right in her face. I mean I practically told her. She just cant put two and two together.
"OK."
I looked at her and thought about what would happen after I tell her. But I should just get this over with and then I will worry about that. If she still wants to be friends after this.
"For the past few month I have been playing with every ones emotions. Some more then others. And I realized that for some time I have had feelings for Luke."
When I said that she started to stare at me. I know that she has a right to be overwelmed or surprised .A few seconds went back and she didn't say anything. I was getting a little fidgety and I wanted to know what was on her mind. But before I could say something she interrupted me.
"what did you just say?"
"You didn't hear me"
"I just want to make sure that I heard what you just said."
"Maddie." I said.
"OK. Let me see if I'm right here. You just told me that you have feelings for Luke?"
"Maddie." Luke said.
"Tell me Luke how long have you and my boyfriend been sneaking around behind my back?"
"Maddie we weren't sneaking around behind your back," He said.
"Oh. Really then what do you call it? I really want to know."
"I don't call it sneaking around. I mean we kept this from you. It was only like one kiss. That's all we did. Then I realized that me and Luke could not be just friends. There was obvious something that was between us. But it took me awhile to realize it. And when I did it was kinda too late. This afternoon Luke told me that he was going to let me be with you. I thought that he gave up on trying. So I realized that I loved him. I loved him Maddie. I cant live without him."
I told her. Luke looked at me and smiled.
