Things I'll Never Say

by Jerseygirl94

For years, Henry has had a secret crush on Gordon but was too shy to tell him his true feelings. So, late one night at Tidmouth Sheds, he starts to think whether he should spit everything out or better yet, just keep all the things he had never got to say inside.

7. Chapter 7

Here's Chapter 7 :)

Chapter 7.

Thomas and Percy were smiling to one another as they each blew their whistles very loudly. They were on their way over to the Blue Mountain Quarry to help Paxton for a little while. Just then, they saw Henry with a sad look painted on his face. "Look Thomas, there's Henry, I wonder why he's so sad." Percy said as the two best friends stopped to see their friend. "Hello there Henry, what's the matter? why are you so down?" Thomas asked hearing him sigh.

"Oh, Hi Thomas, Hi Percy, I tried to talk to Gordon, but it didn't work. He had to take the passengers over to Maron Station." Percy looked puzzled. "What do you mean you were trying to talk to him?" Thomas then spoke for the tender engine. "He likes Gordon Percy that's the reason." Henry looked down in a bashful state feeling awfully embarrassed. "I think I'll never tell him; it's always one thing after another and I'm just wasting time. He'll never understand and will never notice me either." Thomas looked crossed. "Don't say that Henry, you can't give up like that; you need to tell him the truth one way or another. Be yourself and don't feel like you're being stopped." Percy grinned. "That's right Henry, never give up; you are a very nice and strong engine you can do it just believe in yourself."

Henry looked down at the ground in thought and slowly gave a small smile. "You know what? You both are absolutely right. Thanks Thomas and Percy I will try; you all are the best friends ever!" And the three companions whistled in unison Leaving together.
