Brian smiled as he munched his cheeseburger. He glance at Allie who poured him a glass of juice before smiling at him.
She had actually prepared a small picnic area around the school field, Faraway from the other students.
Allie watched him eat , smiling. She could stop herself from Falling for this innocent guy… She looked down at her hands before staring up at the sky.
” She always love studying the stars and constellations” Brian Began and Allie smiled.
” I find it boring” They both said in unison. They stared at each other before laughing.
” I guess we are alike” Brian suggest biting into his burger.
” What else do you like doing?” Allie found herself asking.
” Painting. It helps me forget about the real world” Brian replied before looking down at his burger.
” My sister regarded it as a lazy job but she later accepted it and made me promise to make a painting of her on her sixteenth birthday” Brian laughed sadly.
Allie glanced at him, she could hear the sadness in his voice
” Did you?” Allie asked.
Why was she revealing her soft spot for this guy?! What did he do to her?
” I did but she didn’t live to see it” Brian muttered.
He pulled out a neatly folded paper from his pockets and showed it to Allie.
” I have it with me” He added with a sigh.
Allie glanced at the painting, with widened eyes. She felt something flash in front of her but blinked it away.
Returning the photo, she looked at Brian
” What’s her name?” She asked.
” Emily” Brian replied almost in a whisper.
Allie nodded before placing a hand on his shoulder. He touched it before meeting her gaze.
” It feels good letting it out” Brian Confessed and Allie smiled.

Hana glanced around for Brian and sighed the thirteenth time.
” He is just having an alone time, let him be” Jack assured her with his eyes glued on his book.
” Am bored” Hana blurted out.
” Read a book” Jack offered pushing a book towards her.
” That boring” Hana whine pushing the book back to him.
Jack took the book and looked at her with a raised eyebrow.
” What?!” She half yelled. His gaze was making her uneasy.
” Sometimes I wonder how you pass” Jack commented.
” I read okay but right now am not in the mood” Hana replied.
She really need Brian to be hear, the air between her and Jack were so uncomfortable.
Gosh! Brian come save your girl! She cried inwardly.
Jack frown noticing her discomfort.
” Is it me or you are always uncomfortable around me?” Jack asked catching her off guard.
Hana looked up at him and gasped when she met his piercing gaze.
His blue eyes boring into hers
” No! A_Am not!” Hana exclaimed laughing awkwardly.
” Really?” Folding his arms across his chest, Jack gaze settled on her, studying her emotions.
Hana felt trapped, she couldn’t move.
” I have to use the restroom” She announced and made to stand when Jack caught her arm.
” Do I frighten you, Hana?” Jack asked worried.
Hana shooked her head, how could she tell him that his presence always gives her goosebumps. How could she be comfortable with him in front of her?
Her heart was beating so fast she swore he could hear it. She tried everything not to meet his gaze.
” Hana..?” Jack drawled and Hana cursed silently.
She loved the way her name rolled out of his lips. She quickly pulled away and released the breath she had been holding.
” I just need to use the bathroom” She repeated.
” No,you don’t have to lie.. i will go instead” Jack said and made to stand but Hana stopped him.
” It’s fine. Am not lying” Hana tried to stop him but he refused.
” I h@tΓ« the fact that you have to lie because you feel uncomfortable around me. You can say it, am not mad” Jack said and Hana took in her lips.
She sighed before looking up at him
” Yes. I feel uncomfortable around you” Hana Confessed slowly and Jack nodded.
He had suspected but he wondered why she was uncomfortable around him.
” I feel uncomfortable around you in a good way Jack. Not because i h@tΓ« anything about you” Hana corrected.
” May i ask why?” Jack asked holding her gaze.
” That i can’t answer Jack” Hana lied.
” Why not?” Jack asked moving closer to her.
” Jack please listen… I can’t tell you”Hana pleaded.
Jack nodded looking away. She didn’t trust him. He thought friends trust each other.
” Friends don’t keep secret Hana” With that he left.
Hana sighed falling to her chair, she watched in leave and her heart hurt.
Why didn’t she just say it!?
” Hello , Hana?” Someone called.
Thinking it was Jack she turned only to see..
” Hayers?!” She called in shock
