Hey! Not a single word is said in this chapter. As in, no one says anything out loud. Don't let it fool you though! I think this is my best chapter yet.

OH! One more thing, thank you all for the wonderful reviews on the last chapter! They were all just wonderful!


Today, I made sure that I made it to the dojo early.

I've been feeling really bad and pretty guilty about him bringing me all of the gifts. But, him being a secret, I have absolutely no idea what he wants! There's so many people it could be but how do I know what to get him if I don't know who he is.

So, I wrote a little poem for him. Kinda like the ones he's been leaving for me. So I wrote a sticky note to leave for him.

Once I reached the dojo, I found that he still hasn't got to the window. I put the note on the ledge where he would see it, and went into the dojo. I went over to my locker and started emptying out my bag. I then slammed the door and went over to the girls' (not that there's anyone that goes in there but me) changing room.

Okay, I'm going to let you in on a secret. Or not so secret. I'm not too sure.

Anyway, I don't do too well with surprises. I do horribly. I like surprises, but when I have to wait too long to find out what-or who-the surprise is, I need to find out what it is.

As in, I need to.

This was one of the rare occasions when finding out what-or who-the surprise is, is the last thing I want to do. I didn't want to find out who it was until he wanted me to know who he was. For that I would have to wait. Yes, there are times when knowing would just be oh-so-much more helpful, but I have to use all my strength to put it aside. It doesn't help that I have more physical strength than mental strength.

That's why when I saw someone over by the window, setting something down on the ledge, I froze.

I immediately took a deep breath in, and I saw the person at the window tense. I couldn't see his face in the reflection because of how close he was to it, but he could obviously see me. He ran out of the dojo, causing whatever it was that he left for me, to drop through the small space between the window and the decor set up.

That's when I made the most idiotic move I could ever make.

I ran.

I have absolutely no idea why I ran but I did. There was just something telling me to run after him. To find out who this guy was. I didn't feel it in my head.

I felt it in my heart.

Many people don't trust that feeling. Any kind of feeling that their heart feels. Anything their heart tells them. I'm one of the few that do. So I guess I do know why I ran. It really wasn't that much of a mystery.

It was because my heart told me to.

That doesn't change the fact that it was an idiotic move. Of course it was. I shouldn't have ran. But I did.

I followed him out of the doors to the dojo. He ran through the food court and I followed him. As he ran he held onto his hat. I knew he didn't want me to know who he was. I knew that. What I didn't know was why. Not why he didn't want me to find out. That's obvious. I didn't know why my heart was telling me to run. Why it told me to run when that obviously wasn't the right choice. He didn't want to be found. I should have respected that. It made complete sense. I shouldn't have ran after him. I stopped. I let him keep running through the mall. Surely eventually he would find out I stopped and he would slow down.

I sat down on the ledge of one of the stores nearby where I was. I rested my hands on my knees. I couldn't help but feel like a bad person. I almost ruined his surprise. He was sweet enough to do all of this for me and what did I do? I was so close to blowing it.

He's been so sweet doing everything he has. So sweet...

Suddenly, I know why my heart told me to follow him.

It's because I fell in love,

and I had to find out who with.


Short. 772 words. But, I figured that you'd forgive me on how amazing that chapter was...? I thought it was awesome. I had an idea for the message on this story. It was a pretty awesome message too. So if I can't find a way to tell you what the message was in the next few chapters, I'll tell you in an authors note.

So tell me what you thought about it. I'm really curious.
