Head over Heels

‘’Dad says kindness is virtue and I trust him. And no matter what, I can’t have a single negative thought about him. He looks like a bad person but once you know him, he is really deep, someone looking for trust.’’ I explained him with honesty of what I felt. Rhodes knew I was head over heels for him, in fact everyone knew, maybe Oliver himself as well so there was no point denying it. His change of behavior had certainly boasted my confidence.

‘’Well it’s your choice, I am not gonna stop you…’’ he trailed off,

‘’You should start dating someone, you’re wasting your pretty face.’’ He grinned at me sheepishly,

‘’You think I am pretty?’’ He was, more than pretty. He was handsome, with his soft light brown locks and glinting eyes, he was an eye candy. Not for me though…he was like a brother to me.

‘’Don’t flatter yourself too much Sullivan, but yeah I have to admit you are.’’

‘’I am waiting for my time to come. I can’t bring myself to date just anyone. I have my whole life ahead of me, and instead of wasting the precious moments with small time flings I am gonna find someone who I can spent it with.’’

‘’So you believe in soul mates?’’ I asked with surprise,

‘’I don’t know, I just want to give my heart to one person. Sharing it with others isn’t an option. That will be evading of space.’’ I couldn’t help but laugh at the last sentence. That was just typical Rhodes thinking. Now that I think about it, his view was right as well. I had some boyfriends in the past, but things always ended up between us. I never felt any sadness later on; it was always like ‘I just wasted my time with him.’

‘’Is that person Lana?’’

‘’don’t act like Hales all the time Quinn, me and Lana are just buds. I like her, but it’s not like you and that Oliver person.’’

‘’You like her?’’ I asked, catching the particular phrase,

‘’yeah she don’t fan girl over every single thing that has abs, she’s easy going and fun to talk to. I like spending time with her, that’s’ all.’’

I took his word and didn’t mention it again. Rhodes wasn’t the sort of person to beat around the bush; he was straight forward about things. There was no way he was lying about his feelings.

‘’I was thinking about something for a while Quinn.’’

‘’Like what?’’

‘’What happens after this competition?’’ It was a simple question but I thought a little before saying anything,

‘’If we win we get money and schorlship at Petersburgh, like we wanted. If we loose, we graduate, and we still get scholarship at Petersburgh…’’

‘’I am not taking about that, I am talking about the band.’’ That was a hard question, but I had already thought about it a million times already,
