Monday 26th October 1976

The following week leading to Halloween, I did as me and Donna had planned and wore seemingly innocent low cut tops and skirts that barely covered my ass. Donna asked some of the guys around school to compliment me, they obliged and the plan went swimmingly. We decided to increase everything as the week went on so he would hopefully crack by the time it got to halloween and we all went to Todd Walkers house party. At least that was the aim, whether that would be the outcome we had no clue.

I got to school and went to my locker, I waited there until I saw Donna at the end of the corridor signaling that Robin was coming, I opened it grabbing some books from inside, mildly humiliating as I probably flashed the whole corridor accidently but hopefully it was worth it. Robins locker was 6 lockers down from my own, so I used my prefieral vision to see what he was doing. He opened his locker, and I whipped out my compact mirror, putting on lipgloss, I felt eyes on me and instantly knew they were his, I rubbed my lips together cleaning the edges with my finger shoving the lipgloss into the pocket of my skirt, closing the mirror and also putting that into my pocket. I finally shut my locker and turned in his direction I smiled at him "Hey Robin you okay?" I said as I walked past him, my hand brushing his leg slightly. "Y-yeah" I heard him quietly respond as I walked down the corridor to homeroom smiling to myself.

I entered the lunch hall and just as I past the table where Robin sat with Finney, Billy, bruce and Vance a guy came up behind me, brushing his hand across my back to let me know he was there, "Nice skirt woods." He said as he looked me up and down, I recongized his floppy brown hair and I wasn't so sure of his name but knew he was in my Bio class, "Thanks" I replied sweetly with a smile. I didn't look at the boys on the table next to me, but merely made my way over to  where Donna and Ziggy sat. We had not told Ziggy, I was still finding a way how to even tell her I liked Robin, because I had no clue of how she would react, so we were keeping it subtle around her. "Well look at you, the compliments are just rolling in huh?" Ziggy said with a grin and a wink and I laughed. "How did he look?" I whispered to Donna next to me. "Livid" She responded back with a smirk plastered across her face. "Perfect." I said, then taking a quick glance back to his table where he was already looking at me his eyebrows furrowed and leaning his head in his hand, I looked him up and down slightly then turning back to my table.

We were in the public library together and I was tutoring him again, the top I was wearing made me feel like my tits were going to slip out at any moment, it was a navy blue colour and had a low cut sweetheart neckline, I had decided to leave the skirt, it was a library and I didn't want the old librarian women to think I was some sort of stripper...okay well you know what...nevermind its fine. So I wore my bootcut jeans instead. As I was explaining the fibonachi sequence, I moved ever so slightly closer to him than I already was, my thigh was touching his and our hands were both on the seat only a small amount of space between them. I then moved across the paper to reach over, giving me the opportunity to close the space between our hands, my pinky now over the top of his, and I was trying to act as if I didn't know it happened, but couldn't ignore the obvious butterflies jumping around in my stomach. I could feel his gaze on me so I looked up. "You got it?" I asked. "Um, yeah uh sorry can we go over it one more time." He asked using his other hand that wasn't under mine to rub his eyes and then his temple. "You want to take a break?" I asked titling my head, trying to see his face,he seemed irritated slightly and I didn't want to push him. "No its fine lets keep going." He said with a sigh. "Okay then so..."

The tension between us had become so thick you could cut it with a knife, I could tell there was something he wanted to say, he just needed one more extra push, but from what?
