You introducedto your parents. They were interested in�s parents right away. �Why don�t you invite your 
parents for a cup of coffee? You can all come�, your mum said. thought that was a good idea and would ask his 
parents. Afterfinished his drink, he thanked you for the tour through London and the drink, said goodbye to your 
parents and went to his house. You had a weird feeling in your stomach when he left. 
�He�s so cute!!!� went through your mind. The week after that Lee and his parents and sister came for a cup of coffee. 
It was a chance for you to meet the whole family. They were all very nice. Gemma was nice too. 
She quickly made some friends. She didn�t hang out with you and that much. It was summer vacation, and most of the time you were working. You had a job for 
the summer. You worked in a little ice cream shop.was all settled in London. Because you showed him all the 
places to go.even hung out at the ice cream shop where you worked sometimes. He always made jokes. It was hard to 
help the customers ifwas there, because he was always trying to make you laugh when you were working. 
You could laugh a lot with him! You also introduced him and Gemma to your best friends,and. They all 
likedand Gemma too. You helpedto find a local football club for him. He joined The London Stars 
football club. He was crazy about Charlton Athletic. You didn�t like football, but you always said that you were 
into Liverpool. Just to annoy. You became really good friends. You even let him call you, it was a nickname 
your friends gave you. And sometimes you came to watchplay football practice or a football match. It was the last 
week of the vacation. After dinner on Sundaycame to your house to ask you wanted to go to Secret Point for a 
little walk. So you went with his parents� car. You sat in the sand with your feet in the water and went for a walk. 
You had a lot of fun! �Why haven�t you been to my house all this time?�asked you all of a sudden. You almost 
wanted to cry. You didn�t say anything. �I�ve been living next to you for almost 6 weeks now and you never even came 
to my house. While I�ve been to your house almost every day. If you don�t want to come you can just tell me.
� You couldn�t control your tears anymore and started to cry. 
�Hey, what�s wrong? Please don�t cry!! I�m sorry!�said all worried. 
�Come here�,wrapped his arms around you and held you really tight. 
�It�s okay. Please don�t cry! You don�t have to come to my house. It doesn�t matter if you don�t come. It�s no 
big deal.�said to try and comfort you. Normally you would faint if he held you like this, because you were so 
in love with him, but now you were too sad that you didn�t even noticed.was so sweet to you! 
�Do you want to tell me what�s wrong?� he asked when he lifted your chin, looked you in the eyes and wiped your 
tears away. You started to cry again. 
�It�s ok. You don�t have to talk about it. Just let it all out. I�m here for you!�held you tight again. 
�It�s my grandma. She used to live in your house. She passed away a couple of months back.� 
�Oh my god! I�m so sorry! I didn�t know!� 
�It�s just hard for me! It�s weird to see other people living there! When I found out there were people moving in, I 
was so mad!! It was my grandma�s house!! And then you started to rearrange some things to the house, new furniture. 
Now it�s not my grandma�s house anymore�, you said crying.
hugged you again. You stayed like that for a while. 
It felt good having�s arms around you! After a while you felt a little bit better. 
�I�m so sorry I let myself go like that!� you said with a sad voice. 
�It�s just hard for me to talk about my feelings. It�s also hard to talk about it with my friends.� The tears started 
to come again.held your face in his hands and wiped away the tears. 
�You don�t have to apologise for it! If there�s anything wrong or you just want to talk, I�m here for you! Ok? Remember 
that! I�m always here for you! No matter what!� he said to you when he looked you straight in the eyes. 
�Want to go for a little walk before we go back home?� asked. You nodded. During the walkwas a bit 
distracted and quiet. 
�Is there something wrong,?�
�No everything is ok.� But still he was somewhere else with his mind, so you stood in front of him and asked him again. 
�Is there something wrong? You can tell me! I�m here for you too!� 
�No it�s nothing! It will come another time.� Now you wanted to know what was bugging him. 
�There is something wrong! You can tell me! Please tell me, I want to help you! You helped me too!� 
�No it�s not important. It will come another time.� 
�, I just told you what was bothering me too. I cried my eyes out in front of you! So come, you can tell me! 
Why won�t you let me�� 
�I�m�.� �I�m in love with you!�said softly. 
�What?� 
�No never mind.� 
�I didn�t hear what you said! Can you repeat what you said? Please?� 
�No, never mind! It�s not important!�said and started to walk towards the car again. 
�come on! You can�� 
�I�M IN LOVE WITH YOU!�said with a loud voice. 
�WHAT?!� you asked while you stood frozen. You couldn�t believe what you just heard!stepped in front of you. 
�I�m in love with you! I have been since the first day I saw you standing in front of your window! I was the one 
who wanted to ring your door to ask for the power drill, in the hope you would answer the door! And I was so happy 
when you did!� 
�What�..but��why��how��?!� you started to stutter. All of a sudden you felt 2 soft lips brushing yours. It was 
a really sweet and tender kiss. After the kiss you touched your lips and looked confused at. You couldn�t believe 
what just happened!looked you straight in the eyes. 
�I�m sorry that I did that. But I�ve wanted to do that 
for so long!� He caressed your face.took your hand and looked you straight in your eyes.
