Journal Entry # 16 Friday 3:45 pm 2018

The bell rang, and people filed out of the room. I stopped by the lockers beside the door. I can't forget my diary.. Orion walked out and handed it to me. "I'm sorry that happened." He said. I blinked.

"What?" I thought for a second. "Oh.." I said. "Yeah.. nah it's fine." I forced a smile. "Um, this is probably a bad time, but if I asked you out.. would you say yes?" He asked. He seemed hesitant. I looked down to the side. "I'd.. have to get to know you first." I said. "But yes, I would." His expression brightened. We walked down the hall together, for a short bit. I sped walked down the hall. I turned around at the end of the hall confused. I thought he was right behind me. Damn he's slow.. I decided to wait by the brick wall beside the stairs.

"Hey." I said. "Or..ion- right?" He nodded. Was he limping?  I shook the thought away. Weird.. He went to the councilors office. "See ya later, babe." He said before disappearing behind the door. I blinked confused. He was talking to you right?  I looked around. There weren't any other girls around. I smiled a little as I descended the stairs. No one had ever called me that before. Unless they were teasing. I waited outside for the Jeep to show up in my peripheral vision.

Orion walked out. I waved to him. "Orion!" I called. "Hey! Over here." He walked over, smiling. "Hey." He said.

"Hey."
