Invited Over

It was early spring and I had just left from the gas station after buying a soda and stealing some candy. That's the trick to stealing, you gotta buy something too so they don't suspect you. Anyway, today is the first day of school since spring break ended. My name is Derek and I have brown hair, blue eyes and about 5' 6". Im 13 years old and a seventh grader at Clairvoyance Middle School in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

I had skipped school that day, but regretted it because I didn't want Jake to think I was a slacker, everyone in school knew that he had perfect grades, and all the teachers liked him. I've heard rumors that he was bisexual but I didn't believe them. He was too perfect for me to be lucky enough for that. But, I didn't care I was still infatuated with him.

All of a sudden I realized he was right up ahead of me and walking in my direction. As I was approaching I couldn't help but tense up, I could feel my stomach tighten and my breath quicken. I was thought to myself 'calm down or he'll know somethings up!'

Then I heard his voice. He had stopped, so I did the same

"You ok Derek?" He asked, looking concerned.

"Oh, sorry.. Yah. Sorry I guess I was distracted," I said.

"Apparently! So, we're you like not at school today?"

"I was... but I got excused early. I was only coming back because... I forgot something in my locker," I lied.

"Oh, but you weren't in second hour today?"

"I was... you just must not have seen me.... Well, I did come in class late though. That might be why." Another lie.

"That makes sense, I had my headphones in so... Hey, do you wanna come over , if you can't now than maybe some other time?"

My heart skipped a beat... 'THE GUY I LIKE JUST ASKED ME TO COME OVER TO HIS HOUSE!' I screamed in my head. But then I remembered that I was grounded until Saturday for skipping school before spring break, and my mom would beat me if I didn't listen to her.

"I wish I could, but I can't today. What about Saturday?" I asked.

"Yes, Saturday is perfect. Listen, I gotta go, but I'll see you tomorrow right?"

"I'll be there!"

I kept walking towards the school and then turned the corner that lead to my house. When I got home I went straight to my room and got the tin from under my dresser where I kept my weed. I smoked a bowl and relaxed in my bed watching Futurama till I fell asleep.
