My eyes were glued to the pavement as I walked home from school. All I could feel were stinging tears falling from eyes and onto my cheeks, the rest of my body was numb. Everything around me felt small and useless. I felt a hand on my shoulder and turned around to be face to face with Ryan, my best friend. Or at least he was until today. He stared confused at me offering nothing but his gray eyes that were bigger than saucers. "Jenna why'd you run off like that?" He started slowly trying to hide his fidgeting; he fidgeted when he was nervous. But I couldn't even look at him all I could do was look down at his lucky converse across from my ballet flats. I opened my mouth to speak but all that came out was a puff of air. "Answer me Jenna! I thought you of all people would be happy for me." He said as his words cut deep into me. My eyes met his and than I felt it. A jolt of heat rushing through me until I saw what I had originally: the boy I fell for. But as soon as it came it left with a pang of anger and fire flashed through my eyes. "What the heck were you thinking Ryan!" I screamed at him with my fist balled up tight. All I could feel was his stare and my eyes starting to water. "You really were trying to hurt me weren't you! And to think I-" But before I could finish I started sob. I slumped down on the cool sidewalk and buried my face into my arms. He sat across from me and poked me. I looked up to see his concerned face. His eyes showed my reflection; a sad girl whose dreams were ruined. " To think I kind of liked you!" I finished unfolding my arms to reveal my face that was soiled with bitter tears. He just sat there looking at me like I was a monster for even saying it. "Why do you like me? I thought you and I were just friends!" He said looking at me disgustedly. That's when I had enough. "That's what I thought you and Sophia were to until you asked her out! Do you know what this can do to our friendship Ryan! I've always felt like a third wheel around you two but now I'm an even bigger one!" I shouted as loud as I could. All he did was stand up and walk away. My whole world was gone in just those couple of minutes. I buried my head back down a started to sob again. When I felt a small tap on my head. "Go away Ryan!" I yelled looking up but it wasn't Ryan at all. It was a guy in a gorilla mask. He looked at me and handed me a single white rose; my favorite. "Happy valentines day Jenna." Said a familiar voice. he dropped a card at my feet and took off. He ran so fast the mask fell of his head to expose his short black hair. I grabbed the mask and the card. I opened it and read it out loud "Don't waste your time chasing Ryan, when you can feel loved with me! Happy V-day Jenna. Love your not so secret admirer." I walked back home with a smile and fixed heart. :)
