Tristan hasn't replied to your message yet so you assume he must've had stuff to get done with the boys. You decided to finish the rest of your schoolwork. You just get everything finished and put away when your phone vibrates.

Just sitting here, can't get you off mind 💛

You:
You are absolutely adorable! Just look at you.
Ah, there goes my heart. Can I have it back?

Tristan💛:
What? No way, I promise to keep it safe! 😉

You:
I don't know about that. You did steal it.

You know you're falling for him. Yeah you've thought he's cute but you know you're starting to like him because whenever you see his name on your screen you smile and get butterflies in your stomach. When he calls you beautiful you're actually starting to believe him. Everything he says makes you happy. You're starting to feel yourself again.
"Why must I always fall so fast when some guy gives me attention?" You ask yourself.

Tristan💛:
If you want it come and get it! 😉

You:
Okay, I'll be on the next flight out there! 🙄😂

Tristan💛:
Girl don't play. You'll break my little heart
in two. 🥺

You:
Oh don't be like that. You know if I could I would .
But let's be serious, we barley know each other.
And I personally don't want to waste my time for
something that's going to go nowhere.

Tristan💛:
I want to know you. I really do. But
you have to let me in, you're guarded,
which I know you told me you would be,
but how can I get to really know you if
you won't let your guard down even a
little bit? I'm not trying to waste your time
either, but I can't help move us forward
if you won't help me.

He was completely right. You're only opening up enough to flirt, but you're not opening up enough for him to even attempt to bring it to even a friendship.

You:
You're right. I'm so sorry Tristan. I'm
just so used to getting hurt in the past and
I am trying hard to let it go and get better
at  not letting my past control me anymore.
What do you want to know?
