can't get over you (wlw)

chapter 3

I smiled at the sight of her.
"Lady's and gentlemen, most of you already know valentina. She is back from Spain and will join us again in two days."
The teacher said.

Oh. So she wasn't new.
I stared as valentina and the teacher had a little chat. After a while, she said she needed to go, and before she left, She looked at me, and our eyes locked for a second or 2. My heart began to beat faster. I felt a slight blush on my cheek, probably embarrassed.

I looked away.
What the hell?
Why am I being weird. She is just pretty. my heart shouldn't beat like that. I was now questioning things.
She was also taller than me. I could see that when she stood next to the teacher.

For the last 30 minutes of the class, I tried to focus, but I simply couldn't.
What kind of a person was she? Is she popular? Probably. She is pretty.. so I guess she is.

So she is Spanish. Her skin was slightly tanned. I smiled again. Like an idiot.

School was over, and I got back home, still thinking about her.
You know, maybe this year wouldn't be that boring at all.
Wait, will she even want to be friends with me?
I shaked my head. Don't put your hopes up. I said to myself.

For the past two days.
I was dying to see her again. I was counting hours, minutes, and seconds for this day.
I'm so excited to meet her.
I hope I get the chance to talk to her or even to get to know her.

Indeed, yes, she was popular.
Before the classes began. There was already a group or a whole class, talking to her in the hallway.

I looked at her from a distance.

Shit. She caught me looking. I was about to look away, but she smiled and waved at me.
I hesitated but smiled back.

Did she remember me the other day?
But hell, her smile melted me down.
Like my legs got weak.

What is she doing to me?
For a moment, I panicked.
Hold up, I'm not gay..
I shaked my head. Is not even gay she just pretty. I told myself. Well.. I have been questioning my sexuality for the past months. I wasn't sure. But I didn't want to admit it yet.

I shaked my thoughts away and walked to the class sitting in the back row again cause I hate people.

The bell rang. Valentina walked towards me. I looked at her, and she sat next to me.

"Hi, you can call me val. What's your name?" She asked.

"Sar." i said short.

"Sar?" She said, not being sure she heard me right.

"My name is Sadaf, but I don't like it, so you can just call me Sar." I said, not holding eye contact for too long.

"Why not? I think it's unique."
She searched for my eyes.

I looked back at her.
"Well, thank you. I just find it weird."

"Does it have a meaning?" She asked.

"Sadaf means a sea shell." I answered.

She smiled. "Nice to meet you, sar."

I smiled back. "Nice to meet you.."

The teacher walked in and started the class.

At lunch break, I sat down by an empty table.
I was on my phone while I felt somebody sitting next to me.
I looked up to see her beautiful smile shining at me.

"Hi, do you mind if I sit here?"

"You already sat down, tho." I chuckled, hoping she would get that I'm joking.

She rolled her eyes. " Yeah, very funny." She slapped my arm playfully.

I smirked. "I know already. you don't have to tell me that I'm funny."
I already loved teasing her.

"Do you have a valentine?" She asked.

Tomorrow was valentinesday.

"No. You?"

"Nope." She popped the p.

There was a moment of silence.

"I have never been in a relationship."
She said, looking somewhere in the crowd of students.

My eyes widened.
"What? Why not?"
I was surprised. A girl like her? I couldn't believe it.

She shrugged." I don't know. When I liked a guy, he didn't like me back or when a guy liked me. I didn't like him back.

"Damn, he lost a diamond." I said.

She chuckled."Thanks."
