Diary of the Love Struck
Dear Diary,
I don't know when I changed. I'd like to say I had no say in it, that it was overnight, but that's not true. I think it started the day he gave up on me. Let me explain.
I'll admit that I've always liked having his complete attention, but I never thought I craved it. You can't get me to say that out loud though. Only to you, my silent secret-keeper. If my friends knew they'd think he slipped me a love potion or something insane like that. But he'd never pull that kind of a stunt. I know him better.
I used to pride myself on being the only girl who could resist his charms, but now I see I was wrong. Every reason I came up with to loathe him is just another reason that I love him. And ever since he started ignoring me I've been driving myself crazy trying to get him to look at me the way he used to.
Like the main character in that musical Petunia Is so fond of. "Hopelessly Devoted to You." This I vow; even though he has given up his hope I will not give up mine.
I WILL make him love me once more.
Love Always,
Lily Evans
She set her quill down lightly and looked up as James sat down across the table from her.
"Writing about me in your diary again, Lily-flower?" He turned the book so it was facing him. His eyes darted across the page then back up at her suddenly. "Gave up on you? I thought you knew me better, Evans. I'm just restrategizing." She reached over and slammed the book shut.
"And I thought you knew better than to think I'd actually write what I thought in something that you could possibly see." He smirked.
"Touche." His eyes wandered down to his bare left wrist. "Well my dear, I must be off. Time always seems to fly by when we're together. Until next time, my flower." He kissed her hand and strutted casually out of the library.
As soon as he was out of earshot she giggled. Of all the boys that could possibly steal her heart. She dipped her quill in the ink and flipped open the little book. It dropped from her hand when she saw a folded piece of parchment stuck in between the pages. Her trembling fingers unfolded it slowly.
My dearest Lillikins,
That sounds better than dear diary at the least. I know you're wondering why I wrote you this.
I've decided that your heart cannot be won by any of my previous schemes. Pardon the fact that those words sound like I'm up to trouble. But this is the new angle I've decided to come from. Here goes nothing.
I wish I were derivative so I could lie tangent to your curves.
Is your last name Campbell? Because you're mm mm good.
Is your dad a thief? Because I think he hid those missing diamonds in your eyes.
Hello, my name's Mr. Right!
Good thing I brought my library card because I'm checking you out!
So you're going to run straight into my arms now right??? Or at least walk very dignified into my arms???
Yours Forever,
James
P.S.- I ask again, will you go out with me?
She smiled at how silly he was as she dipped her quill in the ink once more.
Dear Jamsiepoo,
Haha. You're right that is fun.
Who told you to use those lines? I should let you know that they are the very things guys say before they are rejected and usually slapped across the face. Your source was not a reliable one.
Love Always,
Lily
P.S.- I'd love to go out with you.
Ok. This is a tad bit different than the other two, but I hope you like it. I'll take requests or comments if you have them. I love plain reviews too though!!! HazelEyedHottie
