A/N This week's story is a continuation of the previous one. The Tardigrade assignment, which is to write about the line between love and obsession, fits so well with Logan's story, that I figured I'd just keep writing about him! With this entry, I've tried a (very) different format from how I usually write. It was a really fun experiment. Enjoy! :)

Dear diary,

Something strange happened to me this morning. I woke up feeling... Different. Like a piece of me is missing.

I've been acting differently today as well. My friends keep telling me that. This boy in my class, Logan, asked me to sit with him in English class, first period. My friends laughed at him. He's one of those nerds that I normally never would've paid attention to. He looked different today, though. Attractive, in a way. I felt strangely drawn to him. So I accepted.

We spent all day together.

A week ago I never would've given him a second glance. Now it's almost like we're friends. I don't know what's happening to me.

All I know is a piece of me is missing. I need it back. There's a hole in my chest and I need it filled.

Dear diary,

I spent the day with Logan again. I was supposed to go to Lisa's, but I just didn't feel like it. Logan and I had a great day together. We chatted for hours. I found out he's into history - myths and legends and stuff. He told me so many cool stories.

I don't know why I always used to turn him down. It's like I've changed. Maybe I've just grown up, learned to accept people the way they are, rather than judge them on what I've heard from others. That must be it.

That strange emptiness is still there. But when I'm with Logan, it feels a bit better. He can make me forget about it for a while.

Dear diary,

I had a fight with Lisa today. The other girls all chose her side. It's so unfair! Just because I'm their friend, I'm not allowed to have other friends anymore?

They're probably just jealous. It's fine. I've got Logan now. I don't need anyone else.

Dear diary,

Logan is so sweet! It was valentine's day and he sent me six roses. He knew six is my lucky number, and red is my favourite colour. He knows so much about me. He must really pay attention when we talk. I mean, he knows things I can't even remember telling him.

I'm so lucky to have him as a best friend. I won't ever need anyone else again.

Dear diary,

I think I'm in love.

No, I know I'm in love.

I've never felt this way about anyone before. He is THE ONE. I'm sure of it.

I can never lose him.

He is my everything.

Logan

Dear diary,

I'm back. Back to normal, I mean.

Something strange happened this morning. Well, not as strange as the past couple of weeks, I guess, but still. I've calmed down. My heart is back where it belongs. That longing, that's been driving me insane, has disappeared. I feel at peace.

I know what he did. Logan. He gave it back. He saw what it did to me, how it drove me to the edge.

I've tried to hate him for it, you know? For everything he put me through. But when I looked into his eyes this morning, the first time I saw him again after getting my heart back, all I saw was pain. Pure, naked pain. As if he missed me already.

It was wrong what he did. And it didn't even get him what he wanted. Stealing my heart didn't make me feel the same for him as he does for me.

What I felt was obsession. What Logan feels is love.
