The Study Buddies

Pick a Card Any Card!

           A/N- HAI READER CHAN!! I really hope you enjoy my story that I've been working on for a while. Well, I've been talking too long (not really) ok baiii!!

     

                  "Alexandra Henderson?" The teacher called. "Present sir." I replied. Yes, my name is Alexandra Henderson. I am eighteen years old and I'm very talkative and friendly. People call me "flawless" but I recall Hannah Montana and my parents telling me that nobody's perfect. It drives me up the wall when people say that to me. I'm a very insecure girl but love my life. But, I also have some interests. I like, I mean love, a boy. I'm not trying to be corny or anything, but that's exactly what I'm interested in. 

                 "Okay class, let's hurry up because of the short period. Let's start off by assigning study buddies for the persuasive essay assignment. It is due on Friday, June fifth." Mr. Mastrianni stated. "I took the time to put everyone's name inside of my a bag. If you pull out a name, then that will surely be your partner! And no trading, switching, or begging me for another person. Kapeesh?" "Kapeesh!" The class said in unison giggling a little. Sitting in the middle, I wanted to bite my nails right off because of how uneasy I was feeling. "Miss Henderson, pick a card, any card!" Mr.Mastrianni yelped. "Here goes nothing!" I said to him.

                  Peeking at my card, my heart dropped. "Oh my god." I whispered to my best friend Amy. "Take a wild guess of who I got..." She hesitated. Her jaw dropped and giggled. "Your so lucky! I can't believe this! I ship it!" She whispered. I glanced over at Joey and he waved at me. I tensed up and waved awkwardly at him. "Ohmygosh.. Amy, I don't think I can do this. I'm going to be paralyzed! I'm totally gonna blow this opportunity. God so help me." I told Amy while the other teens were picking their poison. "Calm down! Just be yourself!" She told me. "Thanks Am (pronounced aim for her nickname) your the best." I said trying to hug her over her desk. She blushed lightly and replied, "Psh no problem!" 

                With the bell interupting the moment, everyone dashed through the doubled door classroom and left. I attempted to speed walk away so I didn't get pulled to the side because of a teacher telling me to "WALK OR YOU HAVE AN AUTOMATIC DETENTION!" I cut the corner then slowed down. Unfortunately, my crush was trying to get by me and accidentally spooned me. I gasped and whipped my head around. "!" I exclaimed. "Ah I'm sorry Alexandra! I'm so so sorry I really am!" You lightly punched him and said, " It's fine, it's fine. It was an accident! Oh yeah! How about our essay that's due?" I asked him.

             " Do you wanna text me whenever you want to meet?" He asked politely and cute enough to make me blush. "Oh, um. I don't have your number. Heh." I replied stopping in a corner to talk face to face with him. He started, " Problem solved! Sorry about that spoon by the way!" He told me ripping a piece of paper with a number on it. He dashed  down the hall, turned the corner, and left me speechless. Wow. Oh my gosh. Okay, everything was beginning to feel right. Really right.
