Avalaya
It's now Friday and I was on my way to school trying to not bump into Carson. I hummed to myself, the day went quickly and I was soon sitting outside with Aaron and Jo on the grass. ''So are there any guys your interested in?'' Jo asked, a grin on her face. I shook my head, hesitating when I thought of Carson. No, I wasn't supposed to want him. He'd just break me.
''You know we could try and set you up with someone,'' Aaron smirked. I automatically shook my head.
''You're not setting somebody up again, last time you did the date ended with a fight which included plates breaking!''
''Fine,'' Aaron murmured. Then Carson pulled two tables together, standing on them, an acoustic guitar in his hands and a microphone in front of him. I stared at him, curious to what he was doing. ''What's he doing?''
''Who cares,'' Jo replied sourly.
''Can I have some quiet?'' Carson called out. Everyone automatically went quiet. ''Alright, so this is for you, Avalaya. I'm sorry I was a jerk.''
''What's he doing?'' Aaron hissed.
Carson strummed and started singing. ''I want to know your plans, and how involved in them I am. When I go to sleep for good will I be forgiven? And if you want roses, you can go buy a bouquet. If that just won't cut it, well what can I say? You're what keeps me believing the world's not gone dead. Strength in my bones put the words in my head. When they pour out to paper, it's all for you. 'Cause that's what you do. That's what you do. I want to know your fear, from your feet to the back of your ears. When they raise the landing gear will your heart stay here? If you could forgive me for being so brash, well you... you could hit me or whip me, I'd savor each lash…'' he continued singing and I felt my eyes watering up.
''Ava…'' Jo's voice trailed off.
Once Carson had finished the song he jumped off the table, and ran towards me. The microphone still in his face. ''I'm sorry, Ava, I really am. I'm a jerk, I know that but I want to be your jerk! As cliche as that sounds… I didn't think I'd ever say this, not too any girl but Avalaya, I love you. In the few weeks I've known you, you've managed to make me fall in love with you! I love your smile, your dimples, the way you've got one hell of a slap, your kisses, when you blush, I love the fact that you're a mystery and I want to know everything about you.'' He looked me in the eyes, ''I love you.''
Before I could stop myself I mouthed, ''I love you.''
