Sophia's pov:
The following day at school:
It's third period and I've had a long day. I just wanna get this class over with. The bell rings and I notice Josh and Ace are sitting together. Our teacher Mrs. Hudson explains what our class will consist of and that we need to choose a partner. Sabrina insists I sit next to Ace because she really wants to work on the project with her brother. I hesitate knowing Ace probably won't be too content with me sitting with him but comply to make Sabrina and Josh happy.
I nervously get up and sit next to Ace and mumble a quiet ''hi'', he simply nods in response. The rest of the class is dreadfully long, Ace not making any conversation and me being flustered the whole time. I'm not used to feeling this way around anyone so it makes it all the more difficult to act normal around him, luckily Ace doesn't seem to mind my quietness. I can't help but wonder why he's so cold. Plenty of girls like him and almost all of the guys in our school want to be like him, so why doesn't he talk to anyone besides Josh. My thoughts are interrupted with the sound of the bell ringing. I picked up my phone to see Ace added me on snapchat. Smiling at my phone I add him back, even though I'm happy I can't help but be a tad confused with the sudden request.
Feeling enthusiastic after the notification I quickly head out of class, I have the urge to see him and want to spend time with him. I spot Ace just before he takes off, standing by his car. I smile at him and nervously run over. I start off with small talk and come to the decision that I really want to spend more time with him, not only is he gorgeous but ever since I met him I feel drawn to him and have always wanted to know more about him.
Spontaneously I ask him out, ''um.. would you like to go out for a coffee sometime or something?'', he doesn't say anything for a few seconds and simply replies with ''I have to go''.
Gosh, I'm so stupid what was I actually expecting, I mean look at him. Why would he ever have any interest in me? I go home feeling disappointed and rejected. I sit on my bed while unwanted thoughts cross my mind. ''Why do I always get attached so quickly? I haven't even known him for long.''. With those thoughts, I drift off to sleep.
