Prologue
Marcus was my best friend, the boy whom I shipped with everyone. The one who always listened to my problems and teased me about stuff. I hadn't really thought of him as more than that. But why was my heart beating so fast when he hugged me goodbye? Why was I waiting for his texts? Why did I think his little quirks were cute while being jealous whenever he talked to other girls?
As this grade passes, I think I'm starting to like him and LOT! All the prompts in my diary are about him. I can't get him out of my brain. How am I supposed to? I'm afraid my friends are starting to find out..
"Ooh, you two like each other!" Steven had said. I blushed, It felt so awkward whenever people shipped me with him. I don't understand why they do it, I don't even show my feelings for him.
"You like Tiffany!!!" I giggled. Marcus rolled his eyes. "Lola, she's my ex, and we barely even dated, bro!" I often shipped him with Tiffany to hide the fact that I like him. I'm scared it's getting more obvious each coming day. What if I do confess and he says no? I mean, would we still stay friends? I don't wanna lose him. I can't confess.
My phone started ringing. "Hey, beautiful." He said. My heart skipped a beat. He called me BEAUTIFUL! "Did you just call me beautiful?" I asked. He gave a little chuckle. "Yes, I did." I was turning into a tomato at this point. Should I tell him that I like him?
