Kierra’s Pov
At this moment there’s only one thing going through my mind and that’s how stupid I am if there’s an award for the most stupid person on planet earth in sure I would be unopposed for that award
I’m really so so so very stupid
I’m stupid for believing that we actually had a chance together
I’m even more stupid for believing that he’ll actually look at me the way he looks at his flings even if it’s lust in his eyes at least he’ll Look at me
And I’m extremely stupid for thinking he’ll actually see me as more than just a friend

Kierra you’re a really stupid you’re so so so stupid… I thought barely able to contain my emotions near him

“Bes you okay did I say something wrong… He said concern clearly written all over him

“No of course not… I said sniffing

“You look like you’re about to cry tell me what’s wrong… He said taking my hands

“It’s nothing Xander I’m listening… I said carefully removing my hand as it would just hurt me even more

“Are you sure I could tell you later if you’re feeling bad right now

“No tell me now I’m used to it anyways

“Used to what??

“Nothing just tell me

“OK if you say so remember when we made that deal that I’ll make my relationship work and you’ll go out with someone well who better than Jennifer she’s beautiful she’s amazing and for once I think I actually like a girl… He said smiling while I broke apart inside

“So it’s her birthday tomorrow and all and since I broke up with Kate I was thinking of asking her out properly and who better to help me than you right please kierra I really really like Jennifer please you have to help me out on this one I’m doing this because I want to make the relationship work and so you’ll have a chance at love kierra so would you help me out please… He said as I felt my eyes watery

“Xander… I said tiredly

“Please kierra I get so nervous around her I can’t do it without you I need your help please you have to help me I’ll do anything you want anything at all

“The only thing I’ll ever want is for you to look at me the way you look at them for you to kiss me the way you kiss them and for you to love me like no one else… I said to myself

“Kierra please… He added

“Umm Xander I have things to do tomorrow you know

“I’ll tell your parents plus we won’t take long I just need you to help set up dinner and some balloons at the school’s rooftop.. He said grinning

“You’re gonna ask her on the rooftop.. I said my voice hoarse

“Yeah it was the most romantic place I could think of isn’t it great… He said smiling

“Yeah it’s great umm can I use the rest room before we go

“Sure should I wait for you here

“No I’ll meet you in the car… I said almost breaking down

“Okay Bes see you… He said before getting up while I made my way to the rest room my very own tears clouding my vision.
I didn’t even make an attempt to blink my eyes lids to stop the tears I simply let them fall while I walked in the direction of the door slamming it shut before crouching and breaking out in sobs as my heart was torn into shreds by Xander Thompson
I really didn’t care how long I stayed in here but I did only one thing not caring if any one eyes was in the restroom and not caring if it was even the ladies restroom I cried and I cried some more and I cried like its the only thing I could ever do because I know after today I would have lost any chance of being with Xander so right now I really don’t care so I cried and cried the my head hurt then I rinsed my face picking up my pieces putting a smile on my face walked out of the restroom acting like I wasn’t broken apart within

-NEXT DAY-

“So that’s what happened I guess now he wants me to help him prepare everything for today he’s had everything ready I just need to help set it up and check things out… I explained to Maya in the lab
when I we had recess the next day

“Now you’ve really lost it you’re can’t seriously be thinking of helping him

“He’s my bestie of course I have to help him plus if I don’t he’ll start getting suspicious this is all my fault I made the stupid deal with him Maya so I just have to deal with it I just have to bear the pain I’ll be fine I’ll get use to it

“You think so huh you won’t get used to it you can’t you know why because no matter how You see it you love him kierra you know him better than he knows himself but you can’t just stop being so fricking stupid and open up to him he love you too

“He doesn’t Maya he doesn’t stop it just let it go.”

“You’ll never know unless you talk to him kierra just do it or else you’ll keep getting hurt just like yesterday when you cried your eyes out right

“I…

“Of cause you cried that’s what you always do when he hurts you right so this time wasn’t an exemption you cried right you can’t get over him he isn’t a crush that you like you love him kierra I really don’t know why he doesn’t see how much you love him kierra but my advice is that you tell him about it before it’s too late or else you might actually loose him and this time he won’t come back to you… She said before heading to her locker as she left me in deep thoughts

“Oh hey kierra.. Seth said taking a sit beside me

Seth was one of Xander’s teammates he was the only one who kept asking me out even after I turned he down every single time he never stopped sending me flowers leaving note or asking me out on lunch but every time I said no because I kept thinking that maybe Xander would ask me out soon maybe I’ll have a chance with him so why spoil it by been with Seth
Don’t get me wrong Seth was also very cute and handsome then girls liked him alot anyone would jump at the offer of going out with him anyone but me sadly

“Hey Seth… I said smiling

“You’re probably gonna say no again but like I said kierra I won’t stop trying I won’t stop till you say yes kierra

“Seth I…

“I know you’re not ready and I but I really don’t need you to love me I just need you to let me love you and show you how amazing you are just the way I see you… He said before leaving

 

I wished this time would never come it was finally tine to leave school on a normal day but this time I would have to check out Xander’s decor and see how good it is maybe make some changes and then I’ll leave there because I really don’t want to be there when she says yes to him and even when they kiss as always..

I headed to the roof top twisted the knob to meet the most amazing decor ever the balloons were set out and a happy birthday sign was put up the dinner part look great Xander really outdid himself in this one he must really really like Jennifer then

“So Bes is it okay or it’s too much

“It’s perfect Xander… I said my hands shaking

“I know you really want to go but I don’t know how long this would take so…

“I can walk home or catch a ride don’t worry about me I’ll be fine Xander

“You sure

“Yeah I’m sure have fun… I said walking away

“Umm Bes one last thing umm I wrote something for her and I was wondering if you could listen to them and check then out if they were okay and all… He said as I felt a pang where my heart is

“Huh… I said my voice hoarse

“It’s just a few lines please Bes I’m so nervous tight now please just listen

“OK… I said barely able to control myself but still couldn’t find it in me to say no to him

“Alright here it goes

“Jennifer ever since I met you I’ve grown happier and I’ve grown to be more carefree more than usual you make me feel things I never thought I would ever feel I can’t really say I love you right now but I would love for you to teach me how to love you because I’m ready to learn Go out with me Jennifer .. He finished grinning

“So how was it…

“It was Umm it was good… I said blinking my eyes rapidly to prevent tears from falling

“I’ll go now bye Xander.. I said rushing out

“Xander… I heard a gasp behind me as I hid behind the back door

“Hey Jennifer happy birthday… He said pecking her cheeks lightly as the tears rolled down my cheeks

I watched as they fed each other through dinner then they did a little dance before he said the exact same words as she screamed Yessssss before he kissed her fiercely and she made no attempt to stop him instead she held onto him for support kissing him back with the same fierceness and that was all it took for the tears to gush out none stop as I quietly left them resulting to walking home in tears not caring about the stares I might have received

 

I got home to meet the house empty I was really glad about that because I didn’t want to explain why I was in tears and why I looked like I was broken because that was exactly how I felt this instant
My eyes met with my old piano and I realised its been a while I’ve played a song only a few people knew I played I wouldn’t say I was Good at it but at least I was getting there… I thought before blowing the dust away getting ready to play

 

I feel so numb

So so numb

I’m all broken inside inside I’m all broken inside

I hate you

I love you

I hate that I love you… I sang sobbing taking a different tune

“Why can’t I stop loving you…..i screamed

“I hate that I love you…. .. I screamed sobbing as my phone beeped

“Dinner Saturday night I won’t stop till you say Yes”

“Seth

“At this point I didn’t care about anything or how he got my number which is why I didn’t think twice before sending a straight reply

“SURE I’LL LOVE TO”
KIERRA
