❤️One More Chance❤️

It was hectic outside, so I called the hotel securities to make a way for me. I see that the elevator was open and I managed to get in, in time. The elevator was a glass type kind, so I was able to see the paparazzi finally leaving. I watch the view from outside as the elevator was going higher. The elevator ding and I run towards my room. I got myself seated at the window near the bed. As I was looking at cars stopping, cars moving, people walking by the streets. I remembered the last time I fell in loved with a person that was like my everything. Surely in those days it wasn't mutual love, but it might already be too late.

FLASHBACK (Senior Year)

Dianna's POV

Jake's first love was me, but he doesn't like me now. That's what he said one month ago.

'We're gonna collect the graduation questionnaires. Please hand them to me or Jake.' Drew says as he was waving the papers out. Jake looks like he is annoyed by how the students we're talking as they were. 'I just need to pass him casually' I said to myself, I was scared on knowing that he hated me because of what happen before. 'Casually, casually' I repeated to myself.

Here's mine. Mine too! Jake! Jake..

'All the girls are handing theirs in to Jake. I want some too!' Drew was whining. Jake was flustered on how he was getting all the papers. So I gave mine to Drew instead.

'Here's mine.' Drew was blushing and surprise to why I was about to give him my paper.

'Anna, you're the only one!' He faked sobbed. 'Thank You!'

'Don't exaggerate!' I giggled while handing him the paper.

'Anna, Let's go!' I was called by Kate. I peek a little bit on what he was doing. Jake was looking at me with a depressing expression. Why?

'Jake, I got Anna's' Drew was waving it on his face. 'Too bad you didn't get all the girls. Maybe Anna hates you!' Drew was joking about it, but Jake took it seriously. I was still outside the classroom, so I pretty much heard everything.

'That's probably it.' Drew had a shock look written on him.

Anna: 'Oops, I barely smiled.'

Kate: 'Don't overdo it. Hurry and forget about him.'

Anna: 'That's the plan. I'm done with him.'

I can't pull away after this heartbreak. What is casual anyway?

'Oh Anna, the pictures from the school trip are up. They even took pictures from the hotel!' I unconsciously was looking for Jake's Pictures. No! But I can't give up. That is what I keep thinking. I know I've been taking these 5 years for granted.

'Let's go..' I say to Kate. But we'll be graduating from high school pretty soon and are going to be college students. It's like until now I haven't seen him. Wherever we go to college, It would be best if I----broke it off. 'Ouch!' I bump into someone, but before that I look up and saw Jake. Such a coincidence.

'Sorry, Are you okay?' Jake look apologetic, and he was pitiful at the same time.

MEETING...I'll never get another chance.

'Jake! Is it true? I heard from the teacher, You're going to work? No way! I thought you were going to college.' The girls were whining. I didn't really care on who his friends were.

I see, That's good! I walked pass them, looking like I was okay and all that shit! It was a fact for him, he's dream was always to take over his dad's company. It would never work out between us. I'm heading to stardom and he doesn't want all the attention. I knew that every since the beginning. I shouldn't have let my heart slip through. I turned around, and again. He was looking at me.

'Anna...Dianna! Where are you going?' Kate running to catch up with me.

'I- I'm sorry for suddenly...Ah! Just stop already!' I broke down. Little by little my tear were flowing like it was never ending. 'What am i doing?' I keep saying I should give up. I keep saying we'll never speak. I'm so shaken. I don't know if it is reasonable to give up 5 years, even now.

'Here are the past question for the entrance exam. You've been working really hard lately!' My teacher was handing me all these papers to help me for my college exams. I had taken music and theater. It's better to not think of Jake. I saw the exact same paper from our resume the other day, and It was Jake's. I look at it, and it was empty. He has been troubled about it, so I should right a few anonymous advice. I know a lot of things he'll regret leaving off. First, good reflexes. He always ranked first every year......Oh! He also cares about hygiene. I've never seen him slacking during cleaning duties and his writing on the board is always neat.

These 5 years searching for nature and appearance. I found my heart pounding, but I'm simply beneath you. "I've have always liked you. I thought I liked you even now. " Those were the finally words he spoke to me. After that, I avoided him, not because I hate him, but because I was scared. I'm done never again for this love.

'Did I leave my resume again?' Huh? Anna?' I was half asleep on the table. I heard Jake calling my name, but I didn't open my eyes. He was getting his paper beneath me.

'Was she crying?' I heard him whispering to himself. Oh shit! I forgot to wipe the tears away. I knew that he cared for me, but not in the sense of a guy liking a girl. I tried waking up because his fingers were on my cheeks.

'W-What?'
'I just wanted my resume.' The paper fell over, and It was on the ground. Damn, I hadn't erased all the things I wrote yet. The things I wrote---, but he crumpled it. He's just gonna throw it away? I felt my heart break. Good, he didn't notice. Even if he noticed, is it because he's giving me the cold shoulders? He looked at me, while still holding the crumpled paper. My face was giving away my hurt look.

'Anna? Is there something wrong?'
'N-No..'
'But just now when you were sleeping, you were crying..' He touched the back of his neck. I took a step backward, while he took a step forward.

'You have tear stains.' I flinched.

'Wait,What about Jake's Playboy feeling?'

'What do you mean?' He gave me the clueless look. 'Did yo fall in love with me even once?' He asked with his eyes closed.

'Come on!' I laughed like he was saying something funny. I've got to move on. This time it's over. I won't look back. After that it was winter break and I was free from school and cheer practice. To forget the pain of being rude, I threw myself into my studies. I still avoided him him as much as possible. Before I knew it, our time was finally over. It was graduation day. I forgot my phone in the classroom, so I went back. I saw the board and it was full of graduation letters from my classmates. I drew one big heart on it, and on the left side I wrote my name, so it will be more memorable. I heard running foot steps and the door bang. And there was Jake, heavily breathing.

'This is a bit late, but...did you write this about me?' lifting his resume paper out to let me see. ' I was really happy when I read it. I thought you hated me after what I said and when you avoided me. Is it okay if I put my name next to yours?' I was crying really bad, but I never even thought to work this all out.

'I'd like that a lot.' For 5 years, I kept holding it in.

'I forgot to tell you, but I've liked you since the first time I laid my eyes on you." Jake whispered through my ear.

END OF FLASH BACK

After that day, We went our separate ways. We had mutual feeling for each other, but It never worked out. I just didn't feel like it was suppose to be us. I knew that he loved me, but I just couldn't decide if this was real or if it was all a dream. Then I met Harry. He was somewhat like Jake. I shouldn't compare both of them, but I'm just not prepared to give my heart. I started liking him when I saw how sweet and protective he was, but I'm never going to fall for it again.
