(Like my new jacket? Jackson bought it for the party!)
Today is Rita's party. I completely failed at trying to stop it before hand. My last option is to tell Tex and everyone else about my feelings for him. I can't believe it. Jackson escorted me there. Now we just have to hang out until Tex arrives. (Ten minuts later.) Tex just arrived! He glanced at me as he walked passed me, with a small longing gaze...I think. He kissed Rita and hugged her. When he was hugging her, Rita was smirking at me, mouthing the words,
Don't Even think about it. I smiled and mouthed back
too late, I got you right where I want you. I walk up to a microphone and grabbed it (my voice in blue).
"Uh, hi everyone. I'm Michi, and I have something to say."(Long pause as I search for words to say. Meanwhile Rita looks like she's going to eat me.)
"Okay, here I go. As you all know, Tex is the receiver for the Laramie Lynxes. Before he did that, he was my friend. He had been my friend since I was four. He was there for me when my parents died. He was there for me throughout middle school. The reason why he's on the football team is because of me. Tex and I had a plan to ruin Rita's party. When that backfired, Tex joined Rita. Now I'm here to say something to Tex."(Another long pause until I turn to Tex and made eye contact.)
"I know you can't see me the way you did before, because I am just Abnormal Aussie to you. But when we were friends, behind all my tomboyish stuff, I loved you. Ask Tate and Jake, when you left me, I died. A part of me died, that part was my love. Tex, I don't know what I have to do for you to realize this, but I'll even risk the fact that you'll hate me forever just so you can know I love you."I dropped the mic and walked outside and sat in my car. Jackson came in and without a sound, we drove home.
