Zander sped walked through the halls, feeling tears prick his eyes, he wasn't upset or anything, just really, really, embarrassed.
He had an unmistakeable pout on his face, much different than his usual blank stare.
Truth be told, he had been crushing on Luke for months now.
It hurt him a bit to know that Luke didn't even know his name, Hailey had insisted he knew about him..
He just sighed as he tightened his grip on his white and red book bag.
He was so embarrassed!
He flung open the door to the head student 'VIP' lounge, really it was just a common room for him and Daisy to hang out, provided by the school, as expected she was sitting in there reading a book.
"Daisy!" He called out, running over and falling on the couch, head on her lap.
"Oh-! Zander-! How did it go?" She smiled as she set her book down and put a hand on the back of his head.
"HORRIBLE!" He whined, face down.
"...Horrible-? Luke's a nice guy- I'm sure it's not that ba-"
"HES A VEGAN DAISY"
"... HE IS!?"
"YES-! I OFFERED MY, VEGAN CRUSH, FUCKING COOKIES AND CUPCAKES, THEN I LEFT WITHOUT A WORD ONLY LEAVING HIM WITH A HALL PASS" He sat up on his knees. Tears from embarrassment threatening to fall.
"OH-! DONT CRY DONT CRY- ITS NOT THAT BAD! JUST... FIND A VEGAN RECIPE!"
"I CANT COME BACK FROM THAT DAISY..."
"Oh Cmon! I'm sure he'd appreciate it!"
Zander sat back on the couch as he opened the container and began to sadly munch on the snacks 😿
"Aweee.. cmon Zander, I'm sure he didn't mi- ..those look really good, can I have one..?" Zander slid the container over to her and she picked up a cupcake.
"Anyways! I'm sure he didn't mind Zander, you didn't know!"
"He didn't even know I existed until today!" He complained.
"But I thought you said Hailey told the club all about you-?"
"That's what I thought too! ..turns out they didn't even know she had a brother.." he grumbled.
"..Maybe she dreamt that she told them!"
Zander looked at her.
"..okay maybe she just didn't tell them.."
"How do you do your efficiency tests? They were judging me the whole time.. I think- I'm not sure I only really noticed it when they were reading what I wrote.."
"Judging-? Nono-! I'm sure they weren't! The club aren't like that!"
"Promise?"
"Mhm! They're just not used to your way of doing things is all"
"Right.. so how else can I try to get Luke to notice me..?"
"..I think that parts done- Uhm.. Remake the treats, but vegan-...Oh! He's on the football team! Why don't you show up to the games!"
"But why would I do that..? I don't like football..."
"..So he can see you, Zander, you do stand out from the crowd."
"I do?"
"Purple hair, wearing a suit, your big eyeliner, I'd say you do!"
"Oh-..I don't like that.."
"...You don't stand out from the crowd, no worries! Anyways.. Do you have any classes with him?"
He shook his head.
"..alright.. uhhh... Luke Luke Luke Luke Luke.. if I were trying to pull Luke what steps would I take..." she pondered to herself.
".. I don't know his type-" She concluded.
Zander just groaned as he continued to sadly munch his snacks.
