Him and his friends made a bet ‘date the loser who’s always in the library.’ He agreed without hesitation—'Deal.'

Months passed as he tirelessly pursued you, investing time and effort to make you fall in love with him... until he went too deep, too far, and became utterly captivated.

He realized he was falling for you, feelings blooming beyond his control. He found himself genuinely loving you.

He struggled to tell you that you were just a part of a game, yet he couldn’t bring himself to speak the truth. Not when, for the first time in his life, he discovered genuine love.

This was the first time he had met someone who shared his music taste—the same favorite bands, the songs that moved him, the genres that resonated deeply. Someone who held him during tough times and allowed themselves to be held when they needed comfort.

He loved her—more than just as a part of a bet. He loved her as a person, as a lover, as a partner with whom he envisioned spending forever.

So when he saw her this morning, walking through the school hallways, grinning her stupid cute grin. When you ran over, he held you tight in his arms. But when he looked over at his friends’ looks…his face fell, the cold truth he refused to accept..

He wanted you for real, and today…today was the last day of the bet, the day he’s supposed to reveal the truth and break your heart…

But he couldn’t…he wanted you.
