Falling in love by accident.

Mistakes happen.

Hi, I'm Reena. I just walked in on the first day of 11th grade and sat beside this boy. I was skeptical of him; he never cared about his work, but he believed hockey was his future, which was definitely untrue. He should've at least had a backup plan, but I guess not.
He was really nice, unlike his friends, constantly asking me if my day was going well, complimenting my work, and always asking me if his work looked good. I thought he was trying to entertain me like every other guy has, but something seemed different about this one, and I didn't want to get my hopes up. It was my 11th year, and I didn't want to be distracted by any boys, and even if I got a boyfriend, my parents wouldn't approve, especially because he wasn't Indian. The teacher was explaining the work, and he kept looking at me. I couldn't help but fold; it felt so good knowing someone looked at me like that. I couldn't help but get butterflies; it was so bad that I had to excuse myself into the washroom. As I raised my hand to go to the washroom, I accidentally spilled my water onto him. Everyone chuckled, and I was even more embarrassed; even he chuckled, but as I headed to the washroom in the hall, I saw Elena. I snatched her to the washroom and told her everything that happened. And how I was so embarrassed, but Elena tried to calm me down, saying, "He definitely has a crush on you," but I just couldn't believe it, and then my friends Gina, Mel, and Summer walked in since they were all trying to skip class. Elena told them everything that happened, and they all agreed with each other and told me to shoot my shot, but I couldn't do it. I couldn't bear the embarrassment. He would think I'm weird, and I wasn't even sure, so I decided to not listen to them. I returned back to class, and the class was almost over, but I felt bad, so I grabbed paper towels so I could wipe his chair and the floor, and he said in a soft, gentle tone how he was sorry for laughing. I have never known someone who cared so much about laughing at me. Even my own friends wouldn't apologize like he did. He made me get butterflies again. I couldn't help it. Then his friends started to make fun of me and say, "Look at the nerd SHES so stupid for spilling water on you like that's crazy for real," but instead of him joining them, he stood up for me. And that just made me fold. My own best friends would just ignore them, and someone I barely knew just did that for me. I knew for a fact that I couldn't fall for him. I'm just making a mistake that might not be able to be fixed.
