A Peaceful Dream

I took a walk through the sky to
Find my heart
In which I lost, when the wind
Gently lifted and lead it towards
The flying gulls and
Floating clouds.
As the breeze helped it climb,
I slowly followed, passing time.
Smiling, laughing, enjoying the ride,
I finally caught it, just before
The black clouds, full of rain,
Brought me down to the ground
And woke me from my
Peaceful dream, on that beautiful,
Sunny day.

Write a story about an event of your love-life, from the viewpoint of the person your affection was given to. It doesn't have to be extremely realistic, you aren't going to be able to mimic his/her feelings and thoughts, but don't turn it into something unbelievable.

"Another boring day huh..." he complained to himself, walking through the corridor. The girls were looking at him with different expressions. He ignored them, they were never significant to him, and probably never will. He headed to the classroom with the same bored expression.

"Oi, morn'," he greeted one of the few people in school he could call 'friend'. The guy looked back at him and waved his hand without saying anything. Then he continued to sleep, perhaps his night gaming taxed a lot of him.

He sat down and opened his bag, taking a book out. Then he started to read it, not even aware that the teacher came to the class. Luckily his grades were good, so the teachers couldn't really complain about him.

The first period had just finished, and he was just about done reading the book. "Teacher's out, chance," he said to himself and walked out of class. Without anywhere to go, he just walked off randomly.

It took him a while to realize that he was heading to the staff room. Lazy to change his course, he walked on straight. "I can deal with that later," he thought. He turned at a corner and... bump, he was pushed back. Books were scattering on the floor, and a girl was rubbing her back in pain.

"I'm sorry, I'll help," he offered.

"No thanks, don't mind me!" the girl said, trembling with fear. She hastily cleaned the mess and immediately went off from him. As she walked past him he caught a glance of the girl's face. She looked... anxious, but at the same time he can't help but to admire the girl. He could feel both coldness and warmth from her expression, and he was falling in love.

I looked him over appraisingly, his goofy smile today was replaced with a confident smirk, like he had the situation under his thumb. His eyes had an unusual spark of determination in them. He was really serious, wasn't he?

"Y'know, Cristen, it's really weird when you look at me like that. I'm not some piece of meat, you know. Don't just love me for my body!" He joked loudly enough that the rest of the class could hear. Mr. Malecki gave him a stern look from the front of the class and he laughed while I bit my cheek. Yes, this was still the normal Dan.

"Dan, stop it." I whispered lowly. He looked back to me and his smile vanished. His eyes narrowed and he leaned in closer.

"Hm, something to say? Gonna crush my soul and leave me looking even more like an idiot than usual? Gonna make it so I can't try going out with any of your friends, either? Gonna blackball me? Gonna--"

"Yes."

"Huh?" He asked, genuinely surprised. His self-deprecating joke froze midway through and he sported an uncharacteristic blush. He smiled like he always did when he was in a weird situation and gazed around the room, then back to me, still smiling. "Oh...oh, shit. You're serious!"

"Unlike you, not everything I say is a joke." I said with a smile. Somehow it felt good to accept him, even though he liked to make fun of me now and then, he was nice on certain days, and maybe, just maybe, that's how he really is.

"T-thank you."

"You haven't done this much, have you?" This time it was my turn to mess with him.

"What?"

"Get accepted." I said with a smile. He laughed and nodded as he looked back to the front of class.

"Hey, Mr. Malecki. It worked! Swish!" He yelled over the silence of the study session. Mr. Malecki smiled and shook his head.

"Dan, Dan, Dan."

She looked at the new kid and wondered if he was already taken. But the thought was fleeting and she didn't realize she even thought that. The kid introduces himself and the teacher tells him to take a seat next to the girl. He holds out his hand and says
"I saw you look at my so I thought I'd say hi," he says. The girl blushes and pretend to just sleep hoping the kid didn't notice her blushing. The boy raises an eyebrow, shrugs, and sits down. Joey... that was the kid's name, and she wondered what type of girls he liked. As a few weeks started to progress she noticed that he had taken an interest in her best friend and something inside of her broke. He had asken her out and she said yes. This girl wondered if Joey even knew she existed.
"Amber, could you help me with something?" said Joey. The girl stared at him and wondered how he could possibly know her name.
"With?" she says coolly. Joey laughs and says as he scratches the back of his neck
"I kind of want to give a gift to my girlfriend and I don't know what to give her. I know Kylie and I just started dated but I want to give her something memorable." She looked at with a complete poker face and inside she cursed him for being so oblivious to her feelings. She says something quick and walks off. As tears started to form in her eyes. Luckily for her it was the end of the day so she just ran home wondering how one boy could make her feel so bad inside without him knowing himself. The next day was not so different the same things happened but in differen situations. She continued to hide her feelsing until three months had passed. Her friend Kylie had to move to another state and she felt sad and happy at the same time. This was her chance to be with Joey. She tries to find Joey wanting to confess her feelings right away. When she notices him crying in his classroom. She walks to him and just hugs him. Joey thinking it was Kylie he kisses her only to realize his mistake a few second later. He moves back and just runs away, but Amber just stares at the door he ran away through feeling giddy inside. Her first kiss was Joey after all.
The next day Kylie is offically gone and Joey is no where to be seen. So she decides to head off to his house. She knocks and his step-mom lets her in. She walks into his room and notices that he's still crying.
"Still crying Jojo?" she asks.
"I don't know what to do now. She was my first true love, and now I just feel like crap," he cries in his pillow. She grabs him by the shoulders and shakes him.
"Tommorow is a new day. Nothing stays the same, and you've been blind to my feelings all along," it slips out of her mouth before she could stop herself.
"What?" he just stares at her.
"Kiss me," she closes her eyes. He locks lips with her and she thought it was the most passionate kiss in the history of man. You people can guess the rest. :P
