Strangers Again

Stranger - a person whom one does not know or whom one is not familiar.

I never knew much about you. I had seen you around school but never heard or asked about you, you were a stranger to me.

It was the first school gala of the year which we were all forced to go and watch. I was never one to cheer so I would look for an excuse to wonder around. My friend wanted popcorn so I jumped at the chance to go and stand in the line with her, that's when you came up to us and started speaking to me, I was a bit freaked out at first because you were a total stranger and I was shy.

I got your number and we started to speak. You were such a flirt and we got so close but I wasn't ready for a relationship so I asked to be just friends and that's what we became; friends. We would meet up during breaks and would see each other going from class to class, I saw you out at socials and we went to movies with the condition that we watch a cartoon. We began to get closer and closer and our friendship grew stronger and stronger.

You finally kissed me and I felt butterflies, something I have never felt before. We didn't make it official that we were dating and it didn't bother me but then one day I was looking around on the web and saw that you changed your display picture to a picture of you and another girl, that is when my heart dropped and I had finally realised after all this time, I was in love with you, not just puppy love but actual love. When I saw you all I wanted to do is smile, you made my day everyday but then exams started to drift in and I would see less and less of you. My heart slowly broke, I didn't understand because I still loved you.

Holidays came and we started to get close again. We went out occasionally but rarely then. You invited me over for the first time and I had a great time except for one little thing, you still hadn't asked me to be your girlfriend. Your brother told me you felt stupid for not asking me out which made me smile, you know that goofy smile we all have? Yeah that type of smile.

We went back to school and would spend every other break together but one day after the other I felt as if you  were getting irritated with me, I asked you about it and you said I had become clingy which lead to a fight. You broke my heart once again but I couldn't help but still have feelings for you, you still made my day everyday even though we never spoke to each other, even though we would walk straight past each other with out even a glance towards one another, I still had feelings for you, even though I could officially call you a stranger again.
