before I begin the story: THX SO SO MUCH FOR 200 views!! This means so much to me thx guys!

I grin as I enter science, but it fades as I see the board, with its big letters spell out:

PICK A PARTER FOR THE NEXT ASSIGNMENT 

I couldn't. No. But.. maybe? I walk over to him. My crush. I choke on my words, but manage to say, "D-ddo yyyou w-w-wanna be p-p-partners?" 

"Sure." He responds.

I smile so big I feel like my teeth are gonna fall out. But, I sit down and listen to the instructions.

~

I sigh as I realize this is a HUGE project. I'll probably end up doing 99.9 percent of the work. I sigh again, this time more dramatic.

"You good?" Says him, my crush, Sam. 

I smile, but snap back into reality. "O-oh, u-uhm yeah." I respond. I can feel myself blushing.

"Hey, I know this is a big project so do you wanna come over to my house tonight, and we can study?" He asks tapping his pencil on his finger.

"Is he asking me out?" I think, but say back, "Uh yeah, sure, w-what's your a-address?" Gosh, I REALLY need to stop stuttering.

~

I skip to my bus grinning so wide, my teeth start to hurt. I'm so cheerful, that I almost sit next to Sam on the bus, but stick to my regular seat. Nobody next to me. Just me, and my thoughts. I think.

~

4:43. In 2 minutes my mom will drive me to his house. 

~

4:50. I ring the doorbell as I grip my folder tightly. I'm so exited.

~

5:00. His mum brings a snack! Chocolate covered strawberries!

~

5:15. Sam suddenly stops talking. And.. stares into my eyes. Is this it? Does he want to.. I lean into a kiss.

He shoves me backwards, and screams, "What are you doing?!"

"I-I-I-I don't know!!" I scream and scramble to get up, to get out! I can't stay here anymore! I dash for the door, but manage to collide with his mum. I yelp with embarrassment, and run for the front door, but his mum, of course, has to try to stop me. 

"Where are you going?! Is everything alright?!"

"U-uhm, y-yeah e-everything fine. I-I just remembered I need to walk my... dog!" I don't have a dog. Probably never will. But she doesn't need to know that.

~

Tears well up in my eyes as my brain replays what just happened. I walk down my street, only a couple houses away from mine. I sniffle. I sob. Gosh, I'm so dramatic.

~

OK. I think. Enough is enough. I need to confront him. Unfortunately, I still have feeling for him. MASSIVE feelings.

~

"Uhm.. h-hey." I say walking over to him. "W-wanna talk?"

"No." He says, no hesitation. "I found someone else for the project." He says, in a tone of anger, disgust, and.. sadness.

~

I stand there. Rooted in place. Wondering what just happened. Suddenly I feel the same as him. Anger, disgust, sadness. Boiling in me! But... I still have feeling for him. HUGE feelings.
