I Love Him, But I Don't Know (On Hold)

Chapter 3

That night, I couldn't sleep very well. I kept on worrying even though I knew I shouldn't

be. I mean, what did I have to worry for? It's not like I don't like him back. He's pretty

cute. Besides, I'm so over Brian. But what if I accidently call him Brian? That'd be

embarrasing. Does he really like me? I hope so. He's funny atleast. Wait, so I have to laugh

at all of his jokes now. Isn't this a little quick though? I didn't want to tell him that, or else

that makes me sound like I still like Brian. Maybe I do. Psh, yeah right. Michael is way

better, I can just tell. But, I just broke up with Brian like yesterday. Literally. So it's normal

to still think of him right? But I should go out with Michael. It can help me get on in life.

Yes, that's right, do what's best. Why am I pep-talking myself? I don't need to. I got this. I

got this. I got this. Maybe I should just keep chanting to myself until I go to sleep. Ugh,

that's not gonna work, my brains too active. Seriously, what is my problem? GO TO SLEEP.

If I didn't go to sleep soon, I'd wake up with bags under my eyes.

I quickly fell asleep after that and had the weirdest dream. It was about a princess who

had to take over a kingdom of frogs to bring water to her people. When she reached the

crystal caves, she was surrounded by an army of evil frog forces that her people to go on a

evil playground and see if they can escape. She saw a prince headed her way, but a frog

ate him.

I woke up with a daze and shook my head vigurously. Oops, big mistake. I got a headache

and tried to still myself for a few minutes. What time was it anyway? I look at the clock

near my bed and my eyes bugged out. It was almost 2 pm! I dived for my phone and

stared at my recent calls. There was 2 of them, one from Sam, one from Lily. They both

apologized for not being able to cancel their plans to support me even though I repeated

that it was okay. I pondered after wheter or not I should call Michael. I probably shouldn't.

Besides, wasn't the guy supposed to call the girl? I decided to get ready. I showered for a

good 10 minutes, and curled my hair so it came out in light waves around my shoulders. i

smiled in approval and decided on an outfit. I decided on a torquise halter top and denim

shorts. I added a thin sweater vest just in case. I threw on my clothes and applied my

makeup. Go light, I told myself. I was applying my eyeliner when the doorbell rang. I was

suprised so i accidently made a long mark way past my eye. I was going to erase it, when

the doorbell rang again. And again. And again. And again. I decided that anyone who was

ringing this much must have important news so it didn't matter how I looked.

I tromped down the stairs as quick as I could. I froze when I opened the door and found

Michael standing there.
