I was 15 when I started to realize that these feelings that I was having for her were more than just friends.  She is younger than me though not by much just 3 months.  We have been friends our whole lives, our parents are friends and our grandparents are friends.  We go everywhere together we do everything together, but this whole time I have watched her go out with guys, and girls for that matter.  She can get whoever she wants; it’s very easier for her because she is so stunningly beautiful.

            Her yes let me tell you about her, she is the most amazing brunette you will ever see, brown eyes that if you look deep enough into you can see right into her heart.  Strong enough arms that they make you feel safe to be in.  The voice, it hypnotizes me, all I have to do is hear that voice and I’m happy, yes me, I am happy.  Because this girl makes me happy.

             But you see here’s the thing, I have a breaking point where I can not stand to keep feelings locked up inside of me.  That point is coming I feel it I don’t think I can hide them much longer without exploding.  She always tells me that I need to let her in on what I feel, I feel how I feel, if im angry say it, if im happy show it, if im pissed take it out on people!

            So I will take that initiative I will tell her, I will put our friendship on the line just to let her know how I feel.  All I can do is hope for the best.

            “Hey Ash, how are you doing today?” I text her.

             “Heya Spence, Im good, whatcha up to?”

            “Jus thinking I wanna see my most favorite person in the world!”

            “Oh and who would this person be exactly?”

            “Hum I duno someone that looks and acts a whole lot like you, oh wait that’s cause it is you!”

            “Lol, okay um you wanna go Java Lava?”

            “Sure see you there in 20 since I got to walk only 3 more months til I can drive!”

            “yea and 6 for me loser…seeya there”

            “bye”

            Yeah yeah im one of those people who hate short texts if ya going to send a damn message don’t send one that I have to decode and ask a million questions to get the final answer.  Anyways im walking and all I can think about is what is about to happen, I hope she reacts like I want her to, wait how do I want her to react?  Do I want to kiss her, hug her, do nothings? Oh man I don’t know!

            Finally as I get there I see Ashley sitting at a table next to the window, her favorite seat, why, I don’t know.  I walk up to her and she hands me my drink, she always knows exactly what I would like. 

            “So whats up spencey what can I do for you?”  She looking in my eyes waiting for my response but all I can do is stare right back at her.  Oh man she is grabbing my hand, now really what am I going to do, I take a big gulp.

            “I, Ash,” I cant finish im still staring at her so I turn my gaze down to where she has gripped my hands in her own “I like you Ash, and you always told me to follow my feeling and don’t hide them, well here I am telling you, I like you, a lot, I find you to be an amazing person.”
