Ain't Life Just Wonderful?

I hate it. I absolutely hate it. I seriously thought I was over him, but no. One encounter, and I fell in love with him again.

I was wondering around school at lunch today, all alone. My friends were busy with their own stuff, so I had to find someone to keep me company. I think it was the third time that I passed him when he called out to me. One word and I was frozen. I remembered turning to face him, only to find him standing right next to me.

"Come," he had said.

Obediently, I followed. Those two words were all it took for me to trust him. Plus, I didn't really have a choice. He was pulling on my arm.

A couple minutes later, we arrived at the stairwell where I normally eat lunch. It was empty then.

"Why do you keep walking by me?" he questioned.

"I was bored," I said, giving an innocent shrug. He couldn't possibly find out that I like him.

He raised a pierced eyebrow. "Really."

"Yup," I nodded, trying to get him to believe me. I really didn't want him finding out how I felt.

Saved by the bell is how I would define what happened after that. Thank God too, because I don't think I would have lasted much longer.

"Get to class kid," he said, before walking off.

It must have taken me a good two minutes before I could breathe properly. By then, I knew
I'd really have to hurry to get the class on time.

I had the worst possible class after lunch. Math. Meghan pestered me all class trying to figure out why I had a huge grin on my face. She didn't even stop after getting in trouble with the teacher. And truth me told, the smile's still there now.
