THE CHOSEN LOVE

X.

When i got home, i couldn't stop myself from thinking about what Peter told me

How can he be in love with me? I have known him all my life but he has never shown any sign of deep love for me.... Sure we dated but i didn't know that this was the extent of his love for me....

I know i once had a crush on him and we ended up dating for a while, but it was only a crush and nothing more

The worst case scenario is that i broke him by not loving him back

How was i meant to know when he never showed the much affection

I guess now he is a little too late because my heart is set on someone else and he just has to deal with it

"Emily, you have a visitor" My brother yelled from downstairs

"Send 'em in" I yelled back and in the process packing the books i brought out to read but couldn't because i was too lost in thought

Before i could place the books back on my bookshelf, a knock came to my door

"Come in" I said politely

"Hey Endy" I said smiling deviously as Ender entered my room

"Don't call me that" He said sluggishly as he sat on my study chair

"What's up? Aren't you meant to be with Bella" I said sitting on the edge of my bed... Opposite him

"Yeah, but i just came to tell you something" He said scratching the back of his head nervously... Oh

ENDER'S P.O.V
This is it

This is the time i get to tell Emily that I'm in love with her and hopefully she won't reject me

"OK? I'm listening" She said looking confused as to what i would like to talk to her about

"Well..." I am now fully nervous and she just raised an eyebrow at me

"Well?" She asked

"You know it has been a month since we knew each other" I said still feeling nervous

'Come on Ender you can do this' I mentally encouraged myself

"Yeah i know" She said following my every word

"OK, I'm just gonna come up straight" I said slapping my two hands together

"You have my attention" She said crossing her hands, obviously getting tired

"Here goes nothing" I said under my breath and closing my eyes

"Emily i have always loved you since the first day we met, i didn't know how to tell you but i tried showing you that was why earlier today when you and Peter were talking about going to prom together i kind of felt betrayed but i later realized that i haven't told you how i really felt about you... So, would you be my date to the prom?" I said before opening my eyes and before me Emily was frozen like she was in shock

"Wait, what?" She said after some while

"I knew it was a stupid idea to tell you, i get it if you don't feel the same way and i can accept your rejection but i just thought that since we were mates you would feel the same" i said feeling defeated , but Emily just staired at me without saying anything

Wow does she hate me that much?

"I'll be on my way now" I said standing up and getting ready to go

"Ender wait" I heard Emily say immediately i turned.... Facing away from her

"I seriously get it if you don't love me back" I said still facing away from her

"Just look at me" I heard her say
