Untouchable (Love)

[Vamphire]

It's kind of funny, how this came to be. I wouldn't have had this broken heart if it wasn't for her. Oh God, even now I'm still in love with her, and it's been three months... What am I going to do?

-----

It started that day, the first day of high school.

-----

The cherry blossoms were falling as we walked into our new school, the top high school in the region. I was talking with some of my friends when one of them pulled up short. I barely avoided walking into him.

What are you doing? I asked angrily, but he just grabbed me by the shoulders and said, Look!, pointing at a girl up ahead.

And what a girl she was.

Her long brown hair was gently blown upward into the air, accenting a perfect body. And her smile, oh how it was drop dead gorgeous. Her eyes sparkled like emeralds as she turned to talk with a friend, her smile brightening everything that saw it. Including me.

And that's when I fell in love.

-----

Actually, she was really popular at our high school from the minute she entered the grounds. Boys flocked around her, confessing their love and asking her out. But she always turned them down with a smile, then returned to talk with her friends. She was untouchable; all the boys knew it. And we loved her all the more for it.

She was our goddess, a divine figure we could all admire. Her tall, graceful body, her sexy alto voice, her lively eyes, her bright smile. We loved it all.

But...I saw something different about her....and I wanted to find out what I saw.

-----

Unlike other boys, I asked her if we could be friends. I said I liked her, but I wasn't sure if we should go out before getting to know each other, and I really wanted to be friends with her.

She smiled and said, How thoughtful, and asked for my name. It was the beginning of our friendship.

-----

I don't know when I realized the truth; maybe it dawned on me slowly.

-----

We became good friends, and all the boys were jealous. But I noticed something really strange....

Despite how popular she was with the males, she was always surrounded by girls, never any boys except for me. It was like she was deliberately avoiding them.

But, I thought, how could any girl resist the attention of so many boys successfully, especially if she could pick the one she wanted out of all of them?

So I decided to ask.

I think that was one of the worst moments of my life.

-----

I decided to confess my love during the last days of winter, before the snow completely melted during spring.

-----

We were walking home, some snowflakes drifting softly down from the darkening sky. I was watching her from the corner of my eyes.

She was beautiful, yet there was something troubling in the way I saw her. I knew something was wrong, but I couldn't figure out what.

As if she could feel the pressure of my eyes -- I had turned to fully face her while contemplating -- she turned towards me and smiled. It warmed my heart and gave me courage.

I love you. Will you go out with me?

I was shocked; did I really just blurt that out?

Apparently so; her face looked just as shocked as I felt. But she soon composed herself, her face becoming calm once more before she smiled at me.

That smile... My heart dropped.

I'm so sorry...but I cannot accept your feelings. She gave me a sad smile before continuing. I really enjoy your company, so I hope we can continue to be friends.

She took a deep breath before continuing.

Actually, if we are to continue being friends....there's something I have to tell you.

Her face was turned away as she whispered, I hope you will still be friends with me after this...

And then she told me, told me her biggest secret. And I could feel my heart breaking in two.

-----

We're still friends now, three months after my confession. The cherry blossoms have begun to bloom again, but our love was never meant to be....

Damn, why do men always have to fall for the gay ones?

-----

AN: Actually, this isn't strictly a yaoi / yuri fic, but I thought it'll be fun to explore the idea of how straight men love lesbians (with a twist on the idea that women always seem to fall in love with gay guys)...though my writing skills are atrocious. If there's anything I need to fix, please let me know.

[Arista]

You're writing skills aren't atrocious. I think you're very good at writing. It was well written, and I loved it.

[YaShuYuOi]

Indeed ;), I like it
