Easy To Hate Seven Ari and I are talking with a bunch of his friends and it turns out that they aren’t really that mean once you get to know them. I think people just build that reputation for them because they're the “Popular kids” and play Rugby. I stayed by Ari the whole party, and we kinda just wandered around then got bored quickly. “Hey, Ollie? Ya bored…?” I looked up at him, “Very…It’s so crowded and it’s getting kinda hot in here.” He smiled and pulled me out of the house. “Where are we going?” He stops and turns around. “You know where my house is, right?” “Uh..yeah?” “We’re going to that big hill by my house. You can see a bunch of London from there. It’s super pretty too!” I smile as we start running to his house. We declared a race that whoever gets there last has to walk on the edge of the hill, but we ended up tying. “Y-You should….do track..” He says in between breaths. “I’m…good.” We start giggling and he flops down on the grass. I look over then flop down next to him. We just sit for a minute as I think for a moment. I guess I've never felt this happy. I always knew he was someone who meant a lot to me but…this much? Sometimes, it takes a little while for someone to realise how fragile the heart is. I guess this was my realisation. I always thought I would be in a normal relationship with a lover or, not in one at all. This feels special for some reason. He feels special. “You doin’ alright over there, Olivia?” I turned around when he asked. I actually sat and thought for a minute. Maybe I was okay, just emotional, or I wasn’t okay. I don’t know. “Uh, I think so.” He smiles at me. “What's on your mind, Olive?” I lie and look up at the starry sky as I contemplate everything. “Is this real? Are you real?” He stops. Then he starts laughing. “What!? What are you laughing at, that was a genuine question!” I feel kind of dumb. “I-I’m sorry…I am real. What made you think like that?” He keeps a smile on his face as little giggles are audible in between. “I…don’t know. I’ve just had so much fun tonight. It doesn’t feel real. I used to think you forgot about me but…look at where we are now. I just didn’t think this would ever happen to me.” “Wow. That's...deep? I’ve liked you for a bit. I don’t know why I bullied you. I was kinda pressured I guess?” We both turn over and make eye contact. We just lay in the atmosphere with the light of the moon. I finally realise why people are so serious about love. It’s a wonderful feeling. He looks up at the sky, “It’s beautiful, right?” I don’t look up, I just stay staring at him. “Yeah.” I can’t believe I had waited so long. He is so loveable, but yet, for some reason, so easy to hate.
