i sat down in the canteen. in the corner away from everyone around me. alone as usual. no one to talk to. i listened to my music and ate my ham sandwich that my mum made. mum always makes the best lunches. i jumped as the table thumbed and i heard someone speak. "HEY!!" she said excitedly. "i'm new here! my names Mae, what's yours?!" this felt weird because i'm not really good with talking to people. "umm hey my names Riley." i said. i was confused. why did she want to speak to me? maybe it's just because she's new here. i looked into her honey brown eyes as she looked into mine. she was so beautiful. her curly black hair went over some of her face and her perfect smile was so pretty. she was pretty. why do i feel like this...? i've never felt this way before. im just over thinking things and im not in love with her. i don't think so anyways... she probably wouldn't fall in love with someone like me. my straight brown hair was a mess, my skin not as clear, im a mess and she could do so much better. "i- im gonna go. i'll catch you later bye!" she stutters. "oh bye."
