Chapter 1: The Obsession

Alex had been obsessed with Ben for as long as he could remember. He had met Ben when they were kids, and he had been infatuated with him ever since.

Ben was everything that Alex was not. He was popular, confident, and outgoing. Alex was shy, introverted, and insecure. But despite their differences, Alex was drawn to Ben like a moth to a flame.

As Alex got older, his obsession with Ben grew stronger. He would follow Ben everywhere he went, and he would spy on him in his own home. He knew that Ben had no idea about his feelings, but that didn't stop him from loving him.

One day, Alex was following Ben home from school when he saw Ben walk into a park. Alex followed him into the park and hid behind a tree. He watched as Ben sat down on a bench and started to read a book.

Alex watched Ben for a long time, just taking in his beauty. He couldn't believe how lucky he was to be in love with someone so amazing.

After a while, Alex decided to get closer. He crept out from behind the tree and walked towards Ben.

When Alex was close enough, he reached out and touched Ben's shoulder. Ben jumped up in surprise and turned around.

"Alex?" Ben said. "What are you doing here?"

Alex smiled. "I just wanted to talk to you," he said.

Ben looked at Alex suspiciously. "Okay," he said. "What do you want to talk about?"

Alex took a deep breath. "I love you, Ben," he said.

Ben's eyes widened in surprise. "What?" he said. "You're serious?"

Alex nodded. "Yes," he said. "I'm serious. I've been in love with you for as long as I can remember."

Ben shook his head. "I don't know what to say," he said.

"You don't have to say anything," Alex said. "I just wanted you to know how I feel."

Alex turned and walked away. He didn't know how Ben felt about him, but he didn't care. He had finally confessed his love, and that was all that mattered.
