In Between

I sat up and leaned against the wall. She still laid in her position from a few minuets ago. "Remember yesterday how I said the reason why I thought about you everyday?" I looked down to my hands and fiddled with them. "You never told me the reason why." she answered and leaned up to the wall by me. I have to. "Well," I paused and let out a sigh, "it's because I love you." I looked at her for a quick second and her facial expression was completely in shock. "You do?" I squeaked. I just nodded my head.

*Shelby's POV*

Harry loves me? That's a lot to take in, considering I already have a boyfriend that I've been seeing for two years. I can't just throw that all away. We sat in silence for a while, me still looking at him and his head bowed. I just studied his face. Then he went to stand up but I grabbed his arm and pulled him back down. He gave me a little of a confused look. "Harry, I love you, too. But," I whispered and paused, "I can't just throw everything away with Chris. We've been together for two years." I'm still holding onto his arm. "I understand." he mumbled and stood up. I stood up along with him. "Harry, that don't men that we still can't be friends." I looked at him. He put his hands in his pockets. "But best friends shouldn't love each other when one has a relationship. I will always love you. Would you ever give me a chance?" he looked as if he was going to cry. I stood in silence. "I don't know. I could but I don't know." I really didn't know. I love Chris and I love Harry. This is horrible. I can't go on this date tonight. I gotta call Chris.
