Afraid

Her hair blowing through the summer wind . Those hazelnut  eyes shining through the Boston sun. Birds singing in the sky. Summer finally came to Boston .She looked at the necklace.  Amanda was starring at the beautiful blue sky waiting for someone. She checked her phone. No miscalls . She waited until she fell asleep on the bench. A young tall , handsome , rather dashing man came to her.
"AMANDA ! WAKE UP ! WE ARE LATE FOR THE GAME !" someone screamed . That man , known as Charlie , has been Amanda's bestfriend since third grade . Amanda quickly hid the necklace and walked over to Charlie . On his hands were a Boston Red Sox snap back for Amanda. He put on the cap over Amanda's curly hair . When they reached the stadium , they took thier places .
"Amanda , what are your plans for tonight ? " he said . "Nothing really , just to finish my calculus homework " she replied . "Great ! Cause I booked a place at Zedd's steak house at 8  I'll pick you up around 7.30 " he said . Amanda agreed delightfully and walked back to her rusty old apartment . Charlie is a wealthy man . His parents own the world biggest oil plantation . Amanda went back home worried . "How on earth am I supposed to tell him ? He is so gonna freak out ! Its okay , im sure he'll understand " she said to herself . Charlie was thinking on how to tell Amanda . Tell Amanda the he liked her . Ever since 1st grade . 'I'll tell her how I  truly feel about her tonight . Tonight or never " he said to himself . Later around 7.30 , Charlie came to Amanda's apartment with his black jaguar . Charlie was dressed smartly in a tux and Amanda was wearing her black dress that her mom got for her 20th birthday . "You look beutiful " he said muttering . Amanda just gave him a quick smile and pulled his hand. 
Charlie droved to Zedd's Steak House . He sent his jaguar to the valet . Amanda came in and the waitress greeted her . " Are you Mrs Duncan ? " she looked suprised . Not long after Charlie introduced himself as Mr Duncan . "Oh your table is just around the corner" 
The waitress handed the menu . And thier food came not long after that . "Hey I have to go to the toilet " Amanda said . " HOW THE HELL DO I TELL HIM ! " She went out , and told him straight . At his face . "Charles Duncan I know this may sound weird but I finally have my first boyfriend . I thought you needed to know cause your like my bestfriend " she said fastly . He was heartbroken . Crushed . Swollen . Every single thing . Charlie paid for the bills and brought her outside . They sat at the bench.
"How long has it been ? " he asked . " A year and a half " she replied. "Why didnt you tell me earlier ? " he asked again . "I was afraid." Those words floating in his mind . " Amanda I really like you . Since 1st grade. But its no use telling you since you already like someone else " he said to her . She kept quiet. "Why didnt you tell me earlier . I had the same feelings towards you too ." Those words , changed everything .
