A/N: Sigh. Doesn't chocolate taste so great? And so good? Mmmmm...

Max: You're making me so damn hungry...

Me: Deal with it.

Max: You're selfish!

Me: Hey! I wasn't the one who ate all the Ferrero Rochers!

Max: Who did? Who did?!

Me: My brother.

Max: I'm gonna kill him! I'm gonna kill him? Where is he?

Me: He's beside you.

Max: Come here, you little twerp!

Me: You can't catch him, you know that!

Chapter 7

Liesel POV

Dear Diary,

Why do I feel like empty these past few days?

I'm asking myself, Diary, not you.

Sigh. I feel like my heart's missing another half.

OH, GOD.

I'm not falling in love, am I?

Please tell me I'm not. Please tell me I'm not. PLEASE TELL ME I'M NOT!!!

I don't want to fall in love. At least, not right now. I really don't. Falling in love is in the bottom of my priority list. Why does it have to happen to me? Why me? There are a lot of girls and women who's in desperate need of romance. Not me!

Besides, who am I falling in love with?

OH, GOD.

Saukerl.

Damn it!

NOOOOOO!!!!

Why him? Why him?? Why not Logan Lerman? Why not Robert Downey Jr.? Why not Johnny Depp? Why Rudy Steiner?!

I can't be falling for him. I can't be! I don't want to!

How can I not? I mean, he's... He's... Good-looking, I guess.

Oh, who am I kidding?! He's gorgeous! Hot! Handsome!

OH, GOD.

Now I'm turning to that girly girl. Oh, this is awful.

I didn't want this. I didn't wish for any of these!

AND I'M NOT FALLING IN LOVE WITH HIM!!!

Liesel, you know you are. Don't deny it. Deep inside your heart, you know you feel LOVE for Rudy. Ever since you were little twerps. Remember that?

OH, GOD.

I have got to stop writing OH, GOD.

I have been ignoring Rudy for, maybe a month now? I think so.

But every time I see him, I blush and look away. And when he's in the room, my heart start beating faster. And if he's looking at me, I think I might faint.

Are these the signs?

Please say no. Please say no. Please say NO!!!!

Who am I kidding? You're just a piece of paper! Why am I begging to you? You're a non-living. A thing. No offense.

So, I came up with a plan.

I will confront Rudy and tell him what I really feel about him.

Wait. Don't guys do that? Why am I doing it? Why am I going to do it?

But that's what I did yesterday.

It didn't work because I didn't really told him my feelings. I just said hi.

I'm a wimp! I admit it! A wimp! A moron! An idiot!

But he did something that really took my breath away. Literally.

He crashed me to his locker and kissed me.

Yes. Kissed me.

I know, right?! Eep!

All I could think was, Oh, God. Rudy's lips are so soft! I missed kissing him. I missed him. I missed all of him. Oh, God.

Before Rudy could even pull away, I pushed myself to him and kissed him back. I twined my fingers in his soft, soft lemon hair. He tilted his head to deepen the kiss. I opened my mouth to him, and we were making out.

OH, GOD.

I shouldn't have said that. I shouldn't have given you away the details! Oh, this is embarrassing!

Forget I told you that. Forget!

We stopped when the bell rang. We pulled away from each other, our breaths heavy. He smiled and patted my head. He went to his class and I went to mine.

When I sat down on my seat, I felt something on my butt. Something bulky and hard. I thought I was sitting on something, so I stood up. But there was nothing on my seat. Then I felt my back pocket. I took it out and sat down.

I opened it and it was from Rudy. I didn't know how he did that, and I'm really amazed. He used to do that, and it still amazes me.

I read it, and realized it was poem. Not quite a poem, but it was in the pattern of a poem.

I need someone to talk with,

Because I need someone to care for me.

And this time I'm very feeling down.

So talk to me or care for me,

'Cause you're the only one

Who is very special to me.

I'm really thankful for having you...

I love you...

I almost cried. I did. I folded it back.

I love him. I knew that.
