     "Gosh darn it. You were too dumb. Amity, you came off too awkward. You shouldn't have even done that." I sighed, sitting in that..."secret area" in the library, tapping a pen against my cheek, trying to think of something to write. The area wasn't so secret any longer, but I was hoping my siblings forgot about it, so that they wouldn't bother me. The silence was a bit...overwhelming. There was nothing to do. Absolutely nothing. I set the pen down on the table, and closed my eyes, trying to think of something to do. Anything.

     I couldn't. I couldn't think of anything besides her. It was always Luz. She took up literally every single thing in my mind and...some days I hated it. Today was not one of those days.

     Her dark brown hair, her caramel colored eyes...

     My eyes widened. Was I really that much in love with her? We barely knew each other...but to me, it seemed like I had known Luz for years. It seemed like her and I had been "friends" forever. Why the hell did I...feel like this?

                                 ー (few day timeskip) ♥︎

                                                    【 Luz's pov 】

     My eyes stung. Why couldn't I sleep? I wondered. My cheeks were covered in tear stains. First it was what happened to Eda. And now...all I can wonder is if Amity liked me. Why? Do I even...like her..? No, no, that was impossible. She couldn't like someone like me....could she..? Gosh. I ruined my chance. "That's what friends are for". What I had said that day still rang in my head. I didn't mean anything I said then.

     Gosh, I was a mess. Looking at myself in the mirror, and trying to fix my hair. It was not working out well. My eyes widened slightly as I realized what day it was. Thursday. I smiled a bit. Thank goodness. The anticipation had been trying to eat me alive for the past couple days. I sighed, looking in the mirror. Finally, I looked slightly decent. At least my hair looked good.

                                                     【 Amity's pov 】

     I got up out of bed, and suddenly realized what day it was. And what I had told Luz the other day. Today was the day. I sighed, feeling my face heat up slightly. I was finally going to confess to Luz. Although I had barely any courage, I knew that it would be better for me alone...to confess. Even if she hated me.

                             ー ♥︎

     I sighed, sitting down in my normal seat in my first period class. All I could think about was Luz. I looked around the classroom for her. There was no sight of her...anywhere. I heard my heart start pounding, and I became nervous. Where was she? I suddenly felt extremely nervous. She never missed class. I held up my hand, and as the teacher called on me, I asked to use the bathroom. They said yes, and I quickly ran out of the room. I heard someone burst into a fit of giggles once I left, but I didn't care. I didn't care about what they had to say, or what would happen. All I knew was that I was worried about Luz, and she was probably in trouble.

     "Luz!" I said, barging through the door. No response. "Luz...?" My heart was still racing, but now even faster, out of nervousness. I then heard a few quiet sobs...that weren't from me.

     "Luz!" I exclaimed, and ran towards her room. I slowly opened the door, and...
