Chapter 2

-do you like me?-

Beep!Beep!Beep!Beep!

I reached over and slapped the snooze button. I didn't want to go to school. I didn't want to see Niall, after what happened yesterday. I got up anyways. Ugh.

**

I slipped into some peach jeans, a grey tank top, and a floral sweater. I put on my white converse, and brushed through my frizzy hair. I didn't care what I looked like today, Niall doesn't care.

**

I walked through the door of the school and tried to avoid Niall.

"BAAAAAAABBYYYY!"

I heard Lizzy scream behind me. I turned around to find her with her fingers intertwined in her boyfriend, Yontare's. They have this weird on and off relationship that's been going on since the third grade.

"Hey yo girl."

I responded, trying to act gangster. I was like that around Yontare's group sometimes. I'm just really awkward.

"Where's Katie?"

Yontare butted in.

"Over there, making out with Shane."

Shane is a guy who's been around since 6th grade. I used to have a big crush on him, but Katie likes him and I love her too much to hurt her.

"AY LOVEBUGS."

Lizzy yelled across the hallway. They immediately looked over knowing they were talking about them. They're really cute, but he's one of the guys that bully Niall. So we're sorta friends, but behind his back I have problems with him.

**7th Period**

See our school has a block schedule. 4 classes one day, the rest of the classes the next day.

"Ugh I don't WANT to go to chemistry."

I pulled my wallet out of my locker, knowing that lunch was in 45 minutes.

"I'm in that class with you!"

Katie slapped my arm, playfully.

"Gross."

I smiled and linked arms with her as we walked to chemistry together.

I also had chemistry with someone who you may be really familiar with.

Niall.

And Mrs. Kennedy ALWAYS made us lab partners. I think she hates me. I mean, I do have a D- in her class currently.

"Kay guys. Get with your lab partners. Today you guys will be figuring out how to create a self inflammatory device using sulphuric acid and 3 other ingredients of your choice. CHOOSE. WISELY."

She was being firm. Ugh, I have to see Niall again.

"What do I do?"

I asked him, putting on safety goggles.

"I'll do it."

He grabbed some stuff off the shelf and mixed it together. I wasn't paying attention because I was staring at his face. It looked so.. Pale.

"Done."

He spoke. I lifted my hand up for a high five and he took it the wrong way and shielded his face.

"Niall I'm not gonna hit you. Have you ever heard of a high five?"

I laughed.

"Oh. Haha."

God his laugh is the cutest thing ever. He slapped my hand back awkwardly and I saw him blush. He looked up at my face and kind of gave me a funny look.

"Is there something on my face?"

I asked, and started rubbing my face with my sweater sleeve.

"No, you just look funny with goggles on."

He smiled really wide. I don't think I've ever seen him smile before. Ohh my godd.

I blushed and pulled off the goggles.

"Thank you."

I looked at him.

"Thank you for what? I just laughed at you and said you looked funny!"

He chuckled and squinted into his laugh.

"For not being awkward and ignoring

me cause I'm a bully."

I looked down at my notes.

"Oh."

I could sense a hint of fear, but happiness in his voice.

**RING!**

I stood up for lunch and pushed in my chair. I stood behind Katie in line for lunch and I knew Niall was behind me.

**

"Guys."

I interrupted Lizzy and Katie's argument about if pizza or chicken nuggets were saltier.

"What?"

Lizzy asked, annoyed from me interrupting.

"I'm gonna go sit by Niall."

I pointed at the table where Niall sat, examining his pasta.

"Kay bye."

Katie said.

"Love you too."

I knitted my eyebrows together and walked away.

As I walked away I overheard Lizzy going on and on about how juice that comes out of chicken nuggets is so much more salty than pizza juice.

Wait, pizza juice?

"Hey Niall."

I arrived at his table. His head shot up as I lowered my butt onto the bench.

"Hey, why are you sitting here? Shouldn't you be sitting at the 'cool' table or whatever?"

He added emphasis on 'cool'.

"Eh. I ditched. Lizzy and Katie are being dumb."

I looked over at Katie who was yelling stuff about pizza to Lizzy. Who was just face palming.

"Oh."

He simply replied.

"Yeah."

It was so awkward.

Okay, I was about to ruin my life forever. I don't know what I was doing but I did it anyways.

"Niall do you like me?"

I threw my fork down on the plate in front of my face.

"Um."
