My crush on the cheerleader (edited)

Chapter five

I woke up and rubbed my eyes. I had almost forgotten that I'm in Tess's house until her room came into focus. Slowly I got up and changed into my school uniform which could possibly be the ugliest thing I've ever seen (I'd picked it up from my house when I'd had a shower). Memories of last night come flashing back to me. What did April mean? Why would she just whisper "Blair"? She must know more than she's letting on, but what is there to know?

My friends got up and changed and we decided to all go out for breakfast. We went to the diner and I ordered blueberry pancakes and a chocolate milkshake. Strawberry milkshakes used to be my favourite but I don't think I'll have one for a while yet.

Before the order came I went into the toilets. When washing my hands I looked into the mirror and suddenly saw a silhouette behind me. Her figure is curvaceous and stunning as usual. My mouth nearly dropped in utter surprise.

"Blair," I exclaimed, shocked by her presence. My heart quickened the pace in my chest, feeling like it was being consumed by butterflies clutching so hard it's hard to breathe.

"Hey," she said, her voice cool in a mysterious way.

Notuantly walking past her to the paper towels I dried my hands, afterwards putting the paper in the bin. Blair instantaneously pushed me against the wall, her arms trapping me so I couldn't escape. A gasp unwillingly escapes my lips as she's so close I can feel her breath fan against my face smelling the peppermint waft against my face.

"So a little birdy told me that you might have a crush on me, Is that true?" She questioned, apparently ignoring everything that happened yesterday. Who was this "little birdy"? The only people who know are Marcus and possibly April. My stomach contorts at the idea of April outing my crush. Was that why she said Blair's name yesterday? Is this all some big game?

My cheeks bloomed crimson as I looked at her inquisitively, she was so close I could kiss her in less than a second. I tried to keep my composure though and replied timidly "N-no. Who said that?" My voice barely managed to escape my heart beating in my throat.

She looked me up and down and I'm sure...well 99% positive that she stared at my lips the longest. Blair bit her lower lip slightly accentuating her cherry lip gloss. Her perfectly heart shaped lips looked so plump and kissable I could feel my face move closer.

"Well your eyes are telling me differently," She responded, voice low and sexy like a whisper. The left corner of her mouth lifted up in a smirk.

"What do you mean?" I asked, slightly biting my lip from nerves. Enjoying the pain that distracted me from moving further to her face.

"Your pupils are dilated which is a sign of attraction to a person," She said, licking her lips snickering although this time it didn't sound condescending.

"Oh, and by the way, you look cute when you bite your lip," Blair said so close like she was going to kiss me, hovering around a centimeter away, but she left me in the toilets making my knees feel weak. My heart started to calm down at the absence of her presence but I couldn't shake the image of her face's proximity so close to my lips. Part of me thinks I should've gone for it but she's annoyingly confusing. I'm not going to play any of her stupid games if she likes me she should just say so and if she dosen't I'll have to deal with my heart being broken.

"What took you so long?" Tess asked curiously as I sat back down.

"Don't you mean who?" April mumbled almost out of earshot but we could both see her looking at Blair.

"Oh my god did Blair do something to you? I swear if she plays another stunt like the milkshake I will personally go and rip her nails out one by one!" Tess theatrically announces standing up slightly. April has to grab her arm to make sure her threat doesn't become reality.
