When his car was finally out of sight, I let my feeling
explode into a waterfall or tears and thundering sobs.

December 2007
“Hey Kelsey! What’s up?” I asked my friend at lunch one day.
“Nothing, I have to study or I’m totally going to fail my world Civ. test. Im
probably going to fail anyway but I really want to pass this time. I’ve taken this class twice now and don’t
want to take it a third next year!!!” Kelsey yelled to be heard over the lunchroom noise.
“You know cramming isn’t a good way to study,” I said to tease her. “I
shouldn’t talk though, my test is right after lunch and I studied like all night last
night but I know im going to fail anyway. I failed the class so it won’t matter
anyway I guess.” As I sat down at the table she tossed her history book at me and
laughed.
“Retard! Why did you do that? Do you want to be
like me?” Kelsey joked.
“Uh, hun, im not a slut, and why the hell would
I want to be like you? That’s just nasty.” She handed her ugly orange tray to me and
told me to make myself useful. I stood up with the tray and was walking over to throw it away and almost
crashed into a kid coming out of a food line. I looked up to say a quick sorry but when
I looked up, I couldn’t talk, couldn’t move, couldn’t breathe. It felt like in his eyes I wouldn’t need to. I
was looking into a pair of beautiful brown eyes. I had heard somewhere before that a person can get drown in
someone’s eyes and never once believed it. Right then I believed it completely. It felt as if I was falling into
his eyes and couldn’t, wouldn’t try to stop it. But then I realized I was staring
at him and he might think im a weirdo or something and looked down at the ground.
Blushing I looked back up at him just to see what the rest
of his face looked like then turned and walked away, smiling to myself.
He was so cute! He had medium length brown hair that was obviously out of school dress code, brown
eyes, and a great smile. He might sound plain to you but to me, he gave me butterflies.
After I dumped Kelsey’s tray I walked back to her table and was thinking about what had just happened.
I was normally a major flirt and would talk to a complete stranger if I thought I might
like him. This boy I had just met made me nervous. That hardly ever happens to me. I shook my hair to clear my
head of all the racing thoughts going on inside. I sat down again and kelsey was
busy studying. Bored, I looked around at the people eating their lunch, talking or doing whatever. My eyes
passed a table and my heart fluttered. The boy was sitting there with a bunch of
his friends. That wasn’t a big deal to me but what made my heart skip, was the fact
he was looking right back at me with a smile on his face.
I smiled back and turned to Kelsey and almost squeaked in delight. She wasn’t paying
any attention to me so I hit her arm. “Kelsey, there is the cutest guy sitting over
at that table! The one in a the sweatshirt! Look right
over there!”
“You mean the one sitting there two tables
away? Ew, You have really bad taste in guys.” Kelsey said turning around and resuming
her studying. “Anyways, guys are just jerks, take Kyle for example!” she shouted to be
heard over the noise the Spanish boys were making.
Kyle was one of my ex boyfriends but he broke up with me when he cheated on me
with Kelsey. They dated for a while then when he got tired
of her, he broke up with her.
“Yeah Kyle was a jerk but he was MY jerk, well,
until you stole him from me that is.” I was still pissed
about the fact that she was one of my best friends and took my boyfriend from me. I
didn’t like him anymore I was over that a long time ago but
just the fact that she was my friend and knew I liked him
and was dating him really
made me irritated.
“Im sorry!!! how many times do I have to tell you
that? It just happened okay?” she said looking up from her book and pushing a lock of
her dark brown hair away from her face.
“Its fine, I forgave
you for that a long time ago.” I told her looking at
the boy again and he was
looking right back at me
again.
