JuJu's POV

*Monday*

I walked into school with a blue buttoned up shirt and black leggings with 3 wooden marble bracelets on to cover the scars on my wrists.

I walked to my locker and started putting in my combination. "Hey." Matt said, talking to me from his locker which is only 5 lockers away.

"Hey Matt." I said smiling at him.

He smiled back and said, "How are you? Jack G didn't do anything to you at the party did he?" He said raising his eyebrows at the last part.

When he said that it reminded me that we almost kissed. I didn't tell him that though because I didn't want him to judge me. "Uh.. No. Don't worry he didn't do a single thing to me."

"Okay good. Do you wanna walk with me to first hour?" He said grabbing his books out of his locker.

"Yeah sure." I said. He walked up to my locker while I was still grabbing some books.

"Cute picture." He said pointing to the picture of me and Hannah when we were little. We met in kindergarten and have been best friends since. She was my first friend, and for a while, my only friend.

I blushed, "Thanks."

He chuckled and then looked down, which was really cute.

"So... Um.. I've been meaning to ask you... Uh.. If you'd like to go on a date with me?" He asked, biting his lip.

I smiled at him and laughed a little, "I'd love to."

He had a big smile and said,"Great. So, I'll pick you up at 7." He said, while walking to first hour.

"Sure," I pulled out my phone, "...give me your number so you can text me when you're at my house." I said.

He pulled out his phone and gave it to me. While I was putting in my number, I kept looking up so I don't accidentally bump into anyone. I put in my number and of course, I put a picture for my contact.

"Matt, get in the picture with me." I said. He looked into the camera and smiled and then I took the picture.

We looked at it together and I smiled down at the picture. You can tell that I really liked the picture. I looked... Happy.

I saved my number and then sent the picture to myself. We got into the class and I gave him his phone back and he gave me mine back also.

We walked in and sat down wherever, we still don't have assigned seats in this class.

I sat down in the middle of the 3rd row and Matt walked up and sat right beside me. Not long after, Jack G sat behind me and Jack J sat behind Matt.

I turned to look at them and smiled. "Hey." I said.

Gilinsky looked at me, smiled and then nodded his head up. "Hey, do you wanna come by my house to work on the project today?" He asked.

"Sorry, I can't, I'm busy today. How bout tomorrow?" I said back.

His smile dropped a little but then recovered once he started talking again. "Yeah sure."

I turned back around when I heard the bell ring.

The whole hour, we worked on our essay about ourselves, which was really boring, considering I finished through half of the class.

I looked through and peer-edited everything. I made some small changes and then finished. Since I finished so early, I decided to go to the library to print out the essay.

I walked up to Mrs.Sohlers desk and asked her if I could go print it out. She nodded her head and I walked out of the room, towards the library which was all the way on the other side of school, so it was a pretty long walk because our school is as big as a high ranking college.

3 minutes after I walked out of class, I wasn't even halfway to the library.

Then, I heard someone call my name. I looked back to see who it was.

It was Jack Gilinsky.

"JuJu! Wait up!" He said and then jogged up to catch up to me.

I smiled and said "Hey."

"Hey JuJu...I mean Julia." He said.

"Hey, and you can call me JuJu." I laughed a little.

"But you said only your friends can call you that." He said.

Right. I guess this would be the perfect time.

Should I tell him that I forgive him? Should I wait? I have to think quick, so I can say something back to him.

I've made up my mind...
