Valentine Regens

"Stop staring at me like that , I'm not going anywhere" He said as he take a bite of his waffle

"I know but I can't stop staring" I can't stop looking at him , he's just.. so handsome and hot

"Did Joseph told you everything?" He asked

"He owe me , I was mad at Leah and Joseph for dating secretly and pretending to be cats and dogs in front of me"

"What?" Joey just know about it too

"Why are you so hot?" Call me high for being like this

"Valentine , I like that you stare at me but it's getting creepy if you do that all day long" He said and I hissed. I cut my waffle and eat it while getting annoy

"So what do you want for your birthday?" He asked and I looked up to him

"Something from you" I answered

"I can give a makeout session if you want" He smirked and I glared at him

"Go kiss the wall"

"You didn't say that earlier" He teased

"Don't be a jerk"

"Tell your parents that I will kidnap you until midnight" He suddenly said and I raised my eyebrows

"Are you planning to kill me?" I asked

"Aww Valentine , how did you know?" I rolled my eyes and he chuckled. I texted my parents that I will be home at midnight. They haven't answer it yet.. I mean.. will they be mad? Worried? I'll just tell them I'm going with Joey for my birthday

"You and Harry? Did you guys date?"

"No" I shook my head

"Why?"

"That's a stupid question Joey , I like you asshole" I glared and pointed my fork to him. He winked

"Don't be savage Valentine"

"Talking about Valentine.. it's Valentine's day and my birthday.. I'm the one who confess to you first. What a coward" I said and he laughed

"I like you for 3 years.. I like you longer than you like me Valentine"

"Why didn't you make a move? Asking me on a date or something like that"

"You wouldn't want that.. you probably reject me that second" He's right

"How can you like someone that long?"

"Not just someone , it's you.. You are different from others.. argh saying this makes me cringe.. let's save that for another time" He brushed it off and I smiled

"I asked Harry about my name.. Why he call me Val not Valentine?" I said

"What did he say?"

"Valentine is mouthful , Val is shorter.." I looked into his eyes

"Well poor him"

"How about you and Natalia?" I asked and he laughed

"Natalia? Natalia is my cousin's girlfriend. You jealous woman" My eyes widen

"What? You always with her and things like that"

"My cousin Jeremy is in college.. in Seattle , Natalia is planning to make a surprise for their 2nd anniversary. She asked my help to gather that bastard childhood photos.."

"You said you make out with her!" I wanted to throw my fork so bad at him

"I mean.. I already hurt you.. you already hate me so what's the point of explaining it?" Joey said

"You're a real bastard , jerk , asshole.. I hate you!" I said coldly

"I'm sorry , I will never hurt you again" He said seriously and I just stare at his eyes

"I miss you a lot.. it kills me"

"Do you think I don't? Everytime you pranked me , I almost lose control looking at that face"

"Why didn't you?" I asked

"I might hurt you again.. hurting you is enough" He sighed and I smiled secretly

"Why did you suddenly felt this?" He gestured and I know what he mean

"When you said you won't bother me again.. I cried. I don't know what's wrong with me. I was happy and sad at the same time.. I think of you all the time and call me crazy I stare at your name on my phone all day hoping that you call me to buy you food or something like that"

"Me and Harry went for a couple of dates but my soul wasn't there. When Christmas.. I talked to Chloe about it because I can't handle it anymore.. she helped me and I decided that I can't torture myself anymore.. that's why I started to prank you and hoping that you will get at me at least talk to me but you didn't" I said but looking away.. so embarassing

"Look at me" He said

"The sun is rising be-"

"Look at me Valentine" He said seriously and I turned my head slowly to him. He smiled and take my hand. He caressed it

"Stealing your heart is hard.. but I know it's worth it in the end. Do you remember that I told you that I like this girl but she never look at me? You asked me why I didn't fight for her but making out with someone else?" He said and I raised my eyebrows waiting for him to answer

"I fight for you Valentine. Secret messages , secret medicine , secret juice.. that's me" My eyes widen

"What? I thought.."

"You thought it was Cory huh? Leah thought it was Cory. I mean he really liked you back then but he wasn't the one who give you all that" OMG

1st year of highschool.. I got this secret sweet messages on my locker , when I'm sick.. I got a medicine attached on my locker.. when I got so tired from P.E , I got ice cream or cold juice.. for that whole year but since I'm careless.. I don't that interested to know who send me that back then..

"Why did you stop?" I asked

"You're not interested to find who.. so I went for another way by pranking and bully you. Giving you a lot of physical contact and I stare into your eyes a lot hoping that I can reach that brown eyes.. but still not working"

"You're crazy"

"But it was worth it , you're worth it Valentine. That's why I do it" Damn it!

"You turn my heart into a fish who just found a land" I said and he laughed
