Childhood Crush
"You sure about this?" Gigi looks at me like I'm crazy of attending my friend's wedding.
"She's my friend"
"Alright"
I close the door of her car and Gigi left me standing in front of the reception. I walk nicely inside but then everyone's glaring at me. Okaaay, what's happening?
"I-Is there a problem?" Before they could speak someone grab my hands and put me outside.
"Let go of me!!" I was surprised that Lena's the one grabbing me. She released her grip with a frowned face.
"What are you doing here?!"
"Obviously, attending my friend's wedding!"
"Friend?" What? Nancy is my friend. "Since you chose Gigi over them, Nancy and Ellen got mad at you" What? Is that my consequence? "..and they're not your friends anymore" I was so frustrated, I am hurt.
"Everything I do, there will always be consequences.."
"Yes" I look directly at her ocean eyes. It's so beautiful, remembering the words she said that night I know I messed up a lot, and this time I have to change it.
"I have to change everything.. Lena, I'm sorry and don't worry. We will be together"
I ran fast as I could waiting for a truck to hit me. Don't worry Lena, we're going to be happy.
"SUMMER!!!!!!"

I woke up, checking the year today. Yep it's 2014. And this is a great day! I have to come early to school for my Lenaaaaaaa.
As I get up, I felt my head and my body in pain. Maybe it's because of the accidents that I encounter from the start of my time leaping shit. However, I have to continue this and make things perfect. I took a bath before going down and I noticed my eyes were turning into white. I'm also having a hard time to see clearly.. I think this is the consequence, everytime I time leap my vision is getting weak. In that case, I have to be careful in every step I make.
As I walk down the stairs I saw my family eating their breakfast.
"Wow Sum, you're early today?" My mom asked as she put the bacon on the table.
"Come on here my dear eat your breakfast" I sat beside my dad who's reading his newspaper.
"Dad"
"Yes dear?"
"I miss you?" He giggled as if I'm kidding.
"I miss you too baby girl?" He said still giggling, and then we continue eating our breakfast. I miss this scene in our house, we're complete and talking about our life. It makes me sad knowing that in real time, I'm alone eating my oh so called breakfast.
After that, I talked to Van about his sexuality. He said that he had the courage of confessing to dad and mom tonight because of me. Maybe I have to make things right before I proceed to my Lena.

"I hate this Dylan, he's too annoying" Nancy said while opening her locker.
"Dylan is cute, you look perfect with each other"
"We do?"
"Yep, give him a chance" Nancy nodded at me. However, where in the world is Lena.
"Hey hot chick" I turned to look for the person talking, and it is none other than David.
"H-Hey Dave" He leaned at me that we almost kiss but I grab Ellen to face David.
"W-Well Dave, I would like you to meet Ellen. I-I really have to go. I have to look for Lena I'm sorry" I escaped that cassanova to Ellen, I know they were destined for each other, I don't want to get things complicated for the two.
I ran unmindful in the hallway looking for the blonde girl that I almost bump to every student I passed by. Where in the world is that girl?!
"H-Hey are you looking for someone?" I turned my head to see Young, I almost forgot her.
"Hey, always warm up your body before swimming okay? Let's hang out sometime" I winked at her and saw Young blushing. Well, if I want to have a perfect life, I will not forget the people who's been part of me in this time leaping. I left Young who's still blushing and continue running through the library.
When I enter the familiar room with full of books, I heard the voice of this dumb headed human that I've been looking for.
"Ellen said you're looking for me" A wide smile formed on my face. I know who's voice was that. As I turned to her, she threw an apple to me and luckily I caught it.
"So what's your drama?" I ran to her and hug her so tight. She was shock but she manage to hug me back.
"I-I was so busy looking for the stars. Lena, you're always there for me. You're willing to save me, you're always here to lend a hand on me. All of these shits happening to my life, now I realized that I don't have to find love, because love finds me and it's you Lena. I love you with all of my heart!" I cried after saying everything I feel. She caressed my cheeks and kissed my temple.
I know I've been so dumb and blind for Lena, from the very start she's there for me. And now, I know that she is the one.
"I love you too Sum, so much"
"Uhm.. Will you be my girlfriend?" The answer that I get from her was a nod. My heart pumps a hundred times because of the happiness I feel inside, I can't stop smiling from the thought of it.
"YESSSS!!!!!!!!" I shouted with joy while I hug this blonde so tight.
"Shhhhhh!!" The librarian interrupts that made the both of us laugh in the thought of we're in the library.
I said sorry without a sound and grab Lena's hand to leave the library.
After school, Lena invited me to the coffee shop to have our 'babe time'. As we arrived to the shop, I smelled the sweet scent of cinnamon, brewed coffee, and pastries. Lena went to the counter while I waited her from our seats. I eyed my girlfriend from head to toe and damn girl, even if she wears only a plain white shirt and jeans she really look hot. Realizing the thought of that hot chick is mine makes me blush.
"What happened to your face?" I didn't realize that Lena is in front of me while I think about naughty things.
"I-It's just hot here" She nodded after hearing my unconvincing answer.
"I'm glad that you come with me" Lena said holding my hand that makes my butterflies flip as fuck. "I can't believe that you're mine"
"Why?"
"Since the fifth grade, I really have a crush on you and I can't believe that you're mine now. If it is a dream, I don't want to wake up anymore." Wow, I didn't noticed that Lena is really into me for that long.
"But why? I mean, why me? Since fifth grade, really?"
"Remember the day you saved me from the bullies?" Lena told me.
"Yes, when they stole your apple."
"I was helpless that time. My aunt used to give me apples before I go to school. But that day was a bad day for me"
"Why?" I asked as I sip my frappe.
"My aunt passed away that day. I went to school for special exams but the bullies stole my very last apple from my aunt Sharon"
"Sorry for h-"
"Don't be sorry. When you stepped up for me and saved me from those bullies I'm very thankful that you came. It's like you're the angel that my aunt sent for me."
"That's why you never fail of giving me apples everyday?"
"Yes"
"Oh Lena.. You really love me that much. I'm not regretting of choosing you over them"
