Walkway of Hell

Sunday, June 9th, 2013

You’re the boy I can’t keep my eyes off. You’re the boy that as I walk through the halls I see you and blush. You’re the one I’ve had a crush on for years now, you’re the one who won’t like me back.

We talk like best friends, act like sweethearts, but we are just friends. All the effort I’ve put in has placed me in this place of friends. But friends is better than strangers. At least it lets me in your life. Your life of confusion and lost love. You’re fighting for a girl who doesn’t love you back. So why don’t you just turn around and let me. I’d show you compassion no other girl would. I’d show you the love I’ve stored up in my chest.

But your happiness isn’t mine to bring. It’s hers. The girl you are fighting so hard for. She’s the one who holds your heart. But I’ll hold your hand and walk beside you down this walkway of hell. I’ll help you get through this broken heart of yours. But I won’t forget the feelings I’ve buried. I’ll push them away so we can be happy.

I’ll push them away so I can help you find love. I’ll push them away till I’m convinced they’re gone. But deep down, I’ll always know. Deep down I’ll hate how I never stood up and kissed you. Deep down, I’ll be ashamed. But up front, I am happy. I am here. I am well. I show no sign of the war I’ve fought. I show no sign of the pain I’ve seen.

I’ll store that love for the one who will return it. I’ll store that compassion for someone who will appreciate it. I’ll save myself for someone who is right. I just hope that he’s waiting for me just as I am for him.

Mismatched

Sunday, November 25th, 2012

She was my friend, yes, my best friend? No. I’ve never had a girl best friend. I’ve had plenty of friends… but people never took me seriously enough. But, I’d rather have just friends than no friends at all.

We were walking in the park, Jessica, Andy and me (Maddy). We were on the bridge giggling about nonsense when I saw the most attractive guy ever. He looked right at me and smiled. So, I smiled back slightly blushing. Andy saw that my cheeks were slightly pink and turned. When she saw him she gasped, “Dibs!” I hated that, you can’t dibs a guy. Just like a guy can’t dibs a girl.

So being a good friend, Jess and I convinced her to walk up to him. So she walked over and his friend, Jake, walked over and started talking to us. They were in third year university; he was going to school to be a doctor, and his friend -Dustin- to be an architect.

Jessica was in third year to be a dancer, Andy third year to be a singer/actor and I was in second year for being an actor/director. I met them at a show, and we clicked and stayed friends.

After Jake convinced Dustin to go on a date with Andy he called her telling her he’d pick her up next Saturday for a picnic. That’s so cute… he’s talking her on a picnic! When Saturday came around, we helped her get ready. She wouldn’t listen to me; she wore all this fancy clothing. She kept thanking me for making her go on the date. I didn’t know how to respond, so I smiled and nodded.

When he knocked on the door I answered, he smelled so good… but I welcomed him in and told him she’d be down in a second. We made small talk and joked about how it shouldn’t take that long, it’s just a picnic. When she came in, she gave me a look that told me to back off. But when he saw her, he tried keeping his laughing in. He didn’t do so well. “We’re going on a picnic… not a movie premiere. You ready?” I laughed as they left. She wore heels.

We invited Jake in and hung out until she texted me asking to pick her up.

We all went and waited by the park gates. We heard them before we saw them; I could hear her voice all high pitched. And his lower. She was yelling at him. He was saying she was snotty and annoying. She was calling him old fashioned, stupid, gross and old. He’s her age… weird.

She came to us crying, Jess and I comforted her as well as we could, but there wasn’t much for us to do. The fight had started by him playing country music on the way there and then got gradually worse throughout the date and when he asked her to go camping with him and some friends she snapped. She hated everything out doors. Country music, cottages, camping, bonfires, ect. She just hated it. And whenever she’d visit my apartment, she’d make me turn off my country music.

Jess convinced her to go give him a piece of her mind. So she walked over, told him it was over, and smacked him, right across the face. As she was walking over Jake told Dustin he was lucky he even got that much with her, then he walked away and grabbed her hand. She looked at him then leaned into him, then grabbed Jess’s hand. Leaving me alone. I looked at him, and looked at them as they walked away. I turned to see Dustin sitting on the bench, head in his hands.

I walked towards him slowly, put my hand gently on his shoulder, and said, “She doesn’t deserve you, she’s rude, self-centered, and mean… and… I love country music and ca-” He cut me off by standing up, pulling me into his arms and kissing me softly.

“How about we forget about them and try this the right way.” With that he kissed me again.

The moment our lips first touched, it felt like there were flames upon our lips. Sparks lighting up the night to a future together.

 

The Perfect Date

Monday, May 14th, 2012

Have you ever wondered what the perfect date was? Well Sophie wondered what the perfect date, kiss, hug, moment, and everything is… but she was too scared to do anything. But one day, this boy Jack, one of the most popular and cutest boys in school, came up to her and asked her on a date. After realizing he wasn’t kidding she stuttered a yes, he then asked her where she lived and what her phone number was. Sophie was in grade 10 and has black hair with different colours all through it. She doesn’t think she’s all that attractive, but Jack couldn’t think anything but. He thinks she’s gorgeous. Jack is in grade 11 and has a cute brown do. He is super cute and liked by many, but hangs out with a smaller group of friends, even though he wouldn’t have trouble being popular. Saturday arrived and Sophie was up early, but Jack also was.

Sure looks like a fairy tale huh?

When Sophie was waiting for Jack to arrive she was pacing all over the house freaking out… she had been stressing about it all week. She really wanted everything to be perfect.  When she heard his heavy steps on the stair her heart did a few flutters then a huge back-flip and when she heard his knock she didn’t want to seem too eager so she walked slowly and opened the door. But as she did so the grin upon his face made her heart sail.

It was their first date so it was nothing too formal, just a picnic date. So she got in his truck with the lunch on her lap. There was a small awkward silence but he broke it by turning on the music and clumsily singing along. Then she started to sing and he stopped and just listened. Then when she started to notice that he wasn’t singing he began to sang along again laughing the whole time.

When they got to the park they were trying not to pass out from laughing so hard. He took her into a small area that wasn’t too crowded, there was a small stream and he thought it would be perfect. It was, instead of eating right away he pulled her out and they tossed a football and he threw it too far and she backed up into the stream.

He ran over and she was laughing so hard she was crying. But when he reached down to grab her up she pulled him down into it, trying not to crush her he pulled her from under him and started splashing her, soaking her shorts and his. By the time they were done they were soaked to the bone. She went over and laid in the sun, he pulled off his shirt and she opened her eyes and gasped, he had a gorgeous body.

They pulled out the food and chatted the whole time, this day was starting to be perfect. Right as they were finishing their food it started to rain. Sophie was upset, thinking their picnic was ruined, but Jack didn’t seem to care. He just pulled her into the rain and danced, singing the songs they sang in the truck. Then she started singing a different one, a slow one, and he knew it but just pulled her close, humming the melody, her voice died down slowly and they just rocked, and as she looked up into those beautiful green eyes, wet hair, and rain falling between them, she knew this day was perfect, and couldn’t get any better. That is until he leaned down and she closed her eyes her heart leaping, and kissed her. Slow at first then wanting her closer.

He pulled away laughing, and a tiny laugh bubbled up to her lips, she realized her hands were in his hair, having just going up there without her noticing. She lowered them but before she could let him go he grabbed her hand. He then said they probably should leave so they don’t both get sick. As they walked back they swung their arms, she hadn’t said anything since the kiss, and he thought maybe she was nervous. But she just couldn’t form any words, her mind was still swirling.

When they got in the truck he threw his shirt in the back, knowing it would be no use having it on. She opened her mouth to say something but instead reached for the radio and started singing the country song that was on. The ride home was pretty much the same as the ride there, except only they held hands the way home. Sophie now knows what the perfect date is. Her questions answered she does this every weekend with Jack. Making it a constant reminder of how their first date went.
