STORY STARTER
Write a scene where a character confesses their (unreturned) love for another.
The Unexpected Confession…
“I love you…”
Me and my childhood best friend -Ryder- were sitting on a bench swing in my family’s backyard looking up at the night sky. There was supposed to be a meteor shower and I had basically forced him to join me with the promise of our favourite snacks.
“Huh?” I turned to look from the sky to him. I think he could see the confusion on my face because he sighed and said
“I love you, liz.”
I couldn’t stop the small giggle that escaped my mouth at his serious expression and I said “I love you too, idiot-”
“No” He says this time more annoyed “I LOVE you…I have since we were kids…”
My world suddenly froze as his words sunk in…He loves me…Ryder loves me… and the realisation made me dizzy. I mean we’ve been friends for years he was basically like family to me at this point and I’d never thought of him in that way…
A shooting star shot across the sky and I shot up from my seat mumbling something along the lines of “I have to go..” before leaving as fast as humanly possible….
