Schools tree.

Pov: Gale

Five, six or seven days, it dosn't seem to matter, then why does it to me? I haven't spoted Kris sitting under the schools tree, he sits there alone most days. This feeling that can't be put to words, it's as if I'm disappointed but happy. Disappointed I can't watch him from afar and wish to be talking about the newest volume of "Club wars" once again. Happy that I can sit under this tree and piture those memories. I've been at this school almost all my life, so has he, which makes it hard to avoid each other, I wish we didn't. I know it's not easy to forget memories you can't leave behind. I know I should forget. I can't be friends with him anymore. I can't. I can't be friends with you anymore. Friends or not, just say hi to me for once, look at me just once, smile for me one more time, just once more... I sit under the tree while reflecting on these memories... How long has it been since you last talked to me? Two, maybe three years? It seems like forever. They say time goes fast when you're having fun, does that mean time goes slow when you have no hope? I just want to see Kris... Feeling drowsy I fall asleep under the schools tree.

When I wake a girl appears to be sitting on the other side of the tree, more precisely Krises sister, Ollie. This place has a university, high school and pre school, Ollie goes to the university while I go to the highschool, so we don't see each other much. I actually really like Ollie, she's so cool! Kris always complained about her though... And it's understandable, I mean, everytime I went to his they'd be arguing. Everytime I talked to them they'd bring up how much they hate each other. They don't really hate hate each other... I think. Just... Don't get along?

"Oi! haven't seen you in a while, why's that eh?"

Ollie out of nowhere says.

"Haha..ha...Yeah it has been a while..."

3 years to be exact.

"So why haven't ya come over to visit?"

Oh god. I was hoping she wouldn't ask that... Even though there was nothing else she would possibly bring up.

"Schools been.... I've been..." Ugh it's so hard trying not to cry.

"School work... Hehe... Busy I guess..." she's not an idiot, There's no way she's going to buy this. And even if she was, she'd still be able to tell I was lying.

"Uhu. So, since when did you care about school? Weren't you always reading those, what are they called? Mangs? Mongos?"

"Manga" I corrected.

"Yeah that. So tell me, Gayle, what's the real reason?" Why does she want to know now. Why didn't she ask this 3 years ago, or even 1 year ago. It might be the ache of the alcohol I had last night, but I was pissed. I love krises sister, but she's always so late to ask things. 3 years late that is. Oh and she even calls me "gayle" the most annoying thing you could call someone. There's no way I'm telling her why.

"No reason really. Me and Kris just don't talk anymore." It's true.

"Well if you say so. just thought I'd ask. Kris never shuts up about you, it's getting annoying." What?

"You mean, like in this current time? W-When did he last t-talk about me?!" God I sure hope this feeling dosn't get crushed.

"Huh? The last time I came home. Which was about, last week." Last week, LAST WEEK??!!

... This... Should I be happy? I am happy. But.... This dosn't give me any hope. I thought this feeling was hope... But, she never said he talks good things about me.... I.... I can't seem to escape no matter how many times I forget. No matter how many times i thought I had forgotten... This.... Feelin-

"Hey bud, BUUUD you okay there? Well anyway bye I'm leaving."

"O-Oh... Yeah goodbye."

Ah... Time to go to class.
