How To Love Not - Tom Riddle

- Confession -

I had always been straightforward. I have been, with my grades, my personality, and my opinions. It was only now that I struggled to get the point across.

We stood near the black lake at midnight. The darkness covering his face and mine as it was midnight. I half-minded it.

Now would be the moment I told him. If I do, I would feel so much better. Even if he does reject me the worst he could say is "no" . So why are my lips trembling.

I started to fidget with my fingers as I dragged our conversation with stutters and random topics. He was an amazing person too talk too, even if most of the conversation was random, he kept up.

Then I said it.

"You know, I like you!" I confessed.

Immediately my chest tightened and my knees twisted. I just placed it so randomly after having a conversation on our favorite professor. I'm an idiot yet somehow I don't regret it, at least now I can have my answer.

"I know," he replied.
