5SOS - BABYSAT BY IDIOTS

Chapter 182

Matt's POV

Wait, let me get this straight. Nicole and I just met seconds ago and talked for about 10 seconds straight, and she already likes me? This is... it's... AWESOME! Who knew I had such a great personality that I could talk to a girl for 10 seconds and she could be in love with me?

Nicole's POV

I guess people do get over crushes. Maybe I should just let it go and move on. All of a sudden, I saw Taylor and she had a shocked and scared face. "Taylor, what's wrong?" I asked. She leaned into the table fast and whispered, "I think Matt may have heard our whole conversation about him." I widened my eyes. I was about to turn around until Taylor slapped me in the face which made me look back at her. "Ow!" I yelled/whispered. "What the heck was that for?" I said angrily.

Taylor: Don't look at Matt. Then he'll know we're talking about him.

Nicole: First of all, he already knows we were. And second of all, you could've just told me not to look instead of smacking me in the face!

Taylor: Oh, walk it off. It's a long way from your heart. You'll live.

Nicole: 😳 Oh, my god.

Taylor: Sigh. She's having a delayed reaction. Now she's just noticed that Matt heard the conversation. Three... two... one...

Nicole: Matt just heard everything we said! Oh, my god. He knows I like him! This is so embarrassing. He'll think I just met him and I already have a crush on him which is particularly true but --

Emma: Nicole, calm down. Think of this as a good thing. Now he knows you like him, he may understand you and respect you more.

Jessica: And you never know. Guys don't only have one crush in school. They can have more than one. Maybe you're the other one.

Nicole: Jessica, if you want Matt, you can have him. He wouldn't dare go near me now. Everything's gonna be awkward!

Jessica: No. As much as I do wanna date him, I want you to date him more.

Nicole: What?

Jessica: I'm doing this for a friend. You can have him, Nicole. And if he says no, it's his loss.

Nicole: Wow. Jessica, thank you. Thats awesome. You know what? I'm gonna go for it and ask him out. What harm could it be? I'll get over it. *stands up*

Taylor: Atta girl!

I went over to Matt's table and took a deep breath. Before I could even say anything to Matt, all the guys at the table fled. I was confused. Did I do something to make them mad? Whatever. I looked at Matt and he said, "Come sit down." It was awkward and weird but I did it anyway. After sitting down he said, "Listen, Nicole, I heard everything you and your friends were talking about and -- "

Nicole: Listen, Matt, I know what I said. The truth is, I do like you. Like, a lot. I know we only met but even then, I already can see what you're like.

Matt: Well if we're both being honest here...

Nicole: Yeah?

Matt: I kind of knew you liked me in the first place. *laughs*

Nicole: You... You did?

Matt: Yeah.

Nicole: But how?

Matt: Well its not every day you go to a new school and a random girl comes up to your table and introduces herself.

Nicole: Oh.

Matt: But its okay.

Nicole: Well now you know... Uh, I should probably be going now. 😒

Matt: Well you can go right after you answer my question.

Nicole: 😔😒😞 *says plainly* Yeah, uh, sure. What is it?

Matt: Will you go out with me?

Nicole: *gasps* 😳😨 R-really?

Matt: Yeah. Really.

Nicole: Of course! 😃

Matt: Great! How about you give me your number and we can talk tonight? *pulls out phone and gives to Nicole*

Nicole: Okay. *puts number in phone*

Jessica's POV

I honestly had no idea what was going on. When Nicole approached Matt, every guy at the table just left. Then she sat down. We just watched her but because her back was turned to us, we couldn't see any of her expressions.

Taylor: Oh. My. God. Am I seeing what I think I'm seeing?

Emma: What is it? I don't see anything.

Taylor: Matt's giving Nicole his phone and -- and.... Nicole's putting her number in!

Jessica: It worked! Woo hoo!

All of a sudden, Matt and Nicole looked back at me. Oops. Looks like I said that a little too loud. Whatever. The bell rang and we all went to class.
