(A bit of a shorter chapter this time. Chapter 3 should be up relatively soon!- Amy)
“W-who do you want to go first?” I asked.
“You silly! Truth or Dare!?“ she smiled.
“Truth...” I said too afraid of doing a dare.
“Hmmmm...Do you like my sister?” She asked.
My stomach dropped.
I saw her eyes glow and I blurted out
“Y-Yes...I’ve always really wanted to date Jess..” I blushed and she smiled.
“I told you we had to tell the truth! hehe...so I should tell you a secret... I think Jessie likes girls...” my heart sank.
“O-oh...” I said tearing up a little.
“Yeah! She told me a while ago, I thought you knew?... anyways, it’s your turn!” She said still smiling wide.
“Y'know...I can’t really think of anything Kira..sorry.” I tried to hide my tears.
“Okay...are you okay? Tell me the truth.” Her eyes glowed and I felt the urge to blurt our everything on my mind.
“I’m not okay, not at all! I love Jessica so much and now..knowing that she can never love me for sure...I mean I already thought she wouldn’t date me ever...I’m just some nerdy kid who everyone except her bullies.” My tears poured out as Kira hugged me.
“Nick...I’m so sorry...I-I... I didn’t mean to make you cry.” She started to tear up.
I put her in my lap and wiped her tears out of her eyes.
“Don’t worry kiddo..you didn’t know. It’s okay. Sorry I ruined our game.” I said forcing a smile to make her feel better.
She nestled herself into my chest hugging me tightly.
“I just wish you two could be together...wait a sec...remember when I said I could do anything with my powers??” She looked up and smiled at me.
“Y-yeah what’s your point? I don’t want you to change her to love me that’s not fair at all.”
She held my hand softly.
“I wasn’t gonna change her Nick, I was gonna change you! What if I made you a girl..? Maybe then you could date her!” Kira smiled.
“I....I...” I couldn’t respond. I kept stammering over my words.
“Tell me...would you want that Nick?” She said as her eyes glowed again. I already knew I had no choice but to blurt out my thoughts.
“I don’t know...I’d love to date her and honestly I would do anything so that I could.... but I...being a girl... I don’t know if I’d like that.” I said. “Well....maybe you could try for a few hours and if you don’t like it I’ll change you back! Would that be okay??”
Her eyes didn’t glow, they were wide like a puppy dogs eager to hear my reply.
“I-I guess it wouldn’t hurt to try...” I said.
Changes for love can sometimes be minor and sometimes major but must always be of the person changings real choice not just to make others happy.
Here's hoping everything goes well and there is a happy ending for all involved.
The world needs more happy endings.
