On Monday, you finally get to go through her stuff. 'I'm sorry, Xav' you think 'But I need to know if you're ok'
To get rid of the worst case scenario you're thinking of, you check her pencilcase first and take out her pencil sharpener. You then check her x-acto knife and her scissors. You let out a breath you didn't know you were holding after finding no stains on any of the blades.
Then you check her binder, where she keeps most of her work, you find it mostly blank and it has nothing else inside.
You finally go through her notebooks, starting to get anxious 'What if I don't find an answer here, though?' You think 'She might be in serious danger and I couldn't help her'. Then it occurs to you to check her huge chemistry notebook. On the back there are a couple of paragraphs written.

I'm not sure this is a good idea.
Hi. Well. Not hi. I'm never giving you this, I never could. I'm too shy, I couldn't bring myself to look into your eyes and give you this letter and stay until you read it. Also I couldn't just leave it on yout table and run away, that would be cowardly and I don't want to be a coward. This is awkward because I think... I think I have this huge crush on you and I don't know what to do about it. I don't know where to put it, where to hide it, how to get rid of this feeling that has been eating at my gut since the summer, when you changed your WhatsApp picture to a selfie where you just look dashing and your eyes are sparkling and your hair is all over the place. I just wanted in that moment to bury my face in yours and pull at your hair and have you pin me up against a wall and kiss me. I really need help. I need to get this off my chest and I need to get you off my heart even though I think I could never forget those brown eyes of yours. So bright. So full of life.
Agh. I'm a mess.
Sincerely,
Me.
You are left speechless.
"A crush?" You whisper "That's it?"

..You may have noticed the chapters are bite-sized.
That's because I'm trying to update every day! And I need to have around 10000 words by the 31st so I'm writing around 300 - 400 words a day. I really hope you're enjoying this n_n
...Mostly because it's beeing a real challenge to write convincing love letters so far because I'm not currently in love lol.
