BPOV
Now why was I remembering all these instances where he was being nice to me?
I thought he was always an asshole when we were young... Apparently he was not?
And now I was fucking sure about one doubt I've always had in my mind... He had definitely lost on purpose a few times!
But why?
Maybe because I was down and he wanted to cheer me up?
But why did he want to cheer me up?
Well, maybe because...
But if that was the case, why didn't he ever tell me?
"I must say I'm going to miss you," He said to me before we were leaving for respective Grad schools.
"I'll miss all the healthy and unhealthy competitions we've had over the years. Thanks for being an amazing rival!" He smiled, "I'm really going to miss you."
"Thanks," I smiled brightly, "I'm really going to miss you, too! If I am sincerely honest with you, I wouldn't be so good if you hadn't pushed me at times."
"I'd say it's the same for me." He smiled.
"I'll really miss you!" I came close to me and hugged him.
"I'll miss you, too!" He said.
"Ummm... Bella... I was thinking about telling you something for a long time..." He said.
"What?" I smiled.
"I don't know how you're going to take it though...' He chuckled weakly.
"What?" I was confused now.
"I..."
"Just a second..." I said as I received a call from Tyler.
"Yeah, I'll be there in five minutes..." I smiled and disconnected the call.
"Sooo... Tyler and you?" He smiled.
"Yeah... He asked me out after the prom..." I smiled. I couldn't believe Tyler had fucking finally asked me out.
"Oh, you were saying something..." I said.
"Ummm... Yeah... I was saying we should take a selfie... For the sake of all the good memories and a great rivalry..." He smiled.
Was he going to ask me out that day?
Oh my God!
Was that something he meant he always had feelings for me?
Oh my God!
But...
But what about Tanya?
