It was my Third Term in College, Or Last term as a freshmen in my school and because of an unfortunate chain of events plus my slothfulness my schedule for that term was all night classes. My classes everyday started at 6pm and ends at 9pm. Being the optimistic me i just said to myself that it might be fun and a new experience in college. I was so nervous since i was 100% sure there would be no familiar faces for me to see since all my classmates last two terms were all Morning or Afternoon Classes. Than I entered my first class of the first day of the term.It was World Literature and i was right. there was nobody that i knew. I sat at the last row where there was only two of us, His name was Danny and we became good friends.

The next meeting i was late for class and when i entered i saw that Danny was absent and that another person was seated in the last row. He was seated next to my spot. When i sat down there was a slight aura of awkwardness since i’m not really a social person so i don’t know how to easily interact with strangers. He broke our silence by asking me if there was anything that he missed since he was absent on the first meeting. I told him that there was some hand-outs that was given. He asked for mine so that he could photocopy it to have his own copy. After that we talked and by the end of the Class he asked for my name and he gave his but i wasnt able to hear it clearly. I did hear our professor calling him mateo and so that was what i called him.

Days passed and Me, Mateo and Danny became close especially since it was only the three of us who were seated at the last row. Mateo than told us that Mateo wasn’t really his name. We were shocked. The only reason he was being called Mateo by our professor was that because he looked like a TV actor named Mateo. We all laughed when he learned this. He than gave his real name. “It’s Roy” he said.

Roy is a very sweet, Nice and Smart Guy. A Gentleman you might say. although a little kid at heart when it comes to hobbies and past time but than it still adds to his charms. He somebody you can totally count on or a shoulder to cry on. Whenever we’re both online he would show me links to funny videos in youtube or would ask me what i’m doing. It never really bothered me. I was never irritated with him. Sometimes i just don’t feel like talking to him. I know it sounds awful of me but i guess that’s just who i am. When there’s something important i’m doing everything and everybody seems so irrelevant to me.

The term ended and we didn’t see each other anymore since our course was different and that we were now in different campuses. I was in the Art and Design Campus of the school while he was in our Main Campus. After two months it was raining really hard and i don’t know if classes were suspended so i thought of texting one of my schoolmates. A funny thing happened i remembered Roy and then started to miss him. I texted him asking if classes were suspended. He replied “Yes. Btw how are you? its been so long.” I dont know why but my heart pumped fast and my face became red. I never really had a crush on him since he was never my type so now i was confused why i was blushing on him. We texted for a while and after that he never left my mind.

A week has passed and i still couldn’t get him off my head. I wanted to see him badly and so i texted him on a Thursday night and asked if he wanted to go out and watch a movie on Friday. He said sure. I felt like i was on top of a rainbow when he said yes. Just like any girl i wanted to dress my best especially since i was about to go out with a man that i now have a crush on. Friday came and we met. I was the one all dressed up yet i was the one stunned when i saw you. You became more Good looking. Handsome. I felt like it wasn’t Roy that i was gonna go out with but a Prince Charming.

We went on our way to the mall. On the cinema floor we were deciding what to watch. In the end we chose Cowboys and Aliens but i never told you that i already watched that movie. For me the Important thing was that i get to spend some time with you. Before the movie we ate at Burger King and again i didn’t told you that i already ate burgers and fries on before our date. It’s funny how i have to go though those things again and yet i didn’t complained and actually enjoyed it. The Movie ended and we were about to go to a bar to drink before we go home. We were already outside the mall waiting for a cab when you asked if it was okay if we cancel the drink since your mother is looking for you and wanted to discuss something. I said okay. It depressed me a little though since i really wanted to spend the whole night with you. You called your driver and drove me home. “It was fun. Let’s do it again sometime.” is the last thing you said and it made my night complete.

Now we chat again see each other from time to time and go to parties together. It really has been the best during this past month. I’m falling for you more and more each day but the sad part is i know you don’t feel the same way. I know that you’re just really really nice and friendly that’s why you’re doing these things for me. That’s why my feelings for you is the biggest secret you will never know. I just want to enjoy every moment we spend together and hopefully this feeling that i have for you will move on.I know i’ll regret never telling Roy my feelings but would it be better to be always be friends with constant communication than take a chance on love that might just end up in tears and heart breaks especially since i consider you truly as one of the most precious friends i have.
