Rising Hopes

She didn’t want the her hopes to rise, just to see them fall again, but she couldn’t help it. “How can you be sure?” She asked again. “Trust me. I’ve talked to him long enough to tell that he’s totally head over heals for you,” Lucy answered.
“I thought that before and was wrong,” Janice said, not allowing herself to believe what she had longed to hear for so long.
“No you were right. You just thought you were wrong. He never loved me. He’s always LOVED you.”
“Still…”
“If you won’t believe me then just go ask him. He’s right there,” Lucy said, pointing past Janice’s head.
Sure enough, there he was. Kyle, in all his god-like perfection, was right behind them.
Janice’s eyes opened wide. OMG ! Do you think he heard us?!
He might’ve.
Oh no, oh no, OH NO !!!
Calm down. What’s the worst that could happen? So he overheard two girls talking about which one he loved. No big deal. It’ll probably just inflate his ego.
You always have such a sunny disposition of life.
I know. Doesn’t it make me wonderful?
