Regret?

Saturday morning, I woke up early, feeling refreshed and ready to tackle the day. My dad and I had plans to play golf, just the two of us. I loved spending time with him, and golf was our thing. We spent the morning on the green, enjoying the sunshine and each other's company.

After a great game, we headed back home, and I spent the rest of the day relaxing. Sunday was a different story, though. My mom and I had a baking day planned, and I was so excited! We spent the morning whipping up a storm in the kitchen, making all sorts of treats. I loved baking with my mom; it was always such a fun bonding experience.

With my weekend almost over, I knew I had to tackle my homework. I spent a few hours on Sunday evening getting everything done, feeling productive and organized.

Monday morning arrived, and I was ready to take on the day. I stood in front of my mirror, trying on outfit after outfit, finally settling on my favorite denim cargo jeans, a white cropped t-shirt, and my trusty white Jordans. I snapped a few photos for Instagram, feeling confident and stylish.

"Okay, Castle, you've got this," I said to myself, grabbing my backpack and heading out the door.

As I walked into school, I felt a sense of excitement and nervousness. What would the day bring? Would I see Blake? And what would happen if I did?

I made my way to my locker, switching out my books for my first class. As I turned around, I caught sight of Blake across the hallway, looking adorable in his black jeans and grey t-shirt. My heart skipped a beat, but I quickly looked away, not wanting to draw attention to myself.

Please continue the story! What happens next? Do I see Blake again? Do I talk to him.

At lunchtime, I joined my friends at our usual table in the cafeteria. Kennedy and Ethan were already there, chatting and laughing. Jade and Cody were sitting next to them, and I took my usual seat beside Jade. Blake and Adelle sat down across from us, and we all started catching up on each other's weekends.

Kennedy, always the gossip, started filling us in on the latest drama. Ethan, our resident jokester, kept making us laugh. Jade and Cody were discussing their plans for the upcoming school dance. And I was trying to focus on the conversation, but my eyes kept drifting towards Blake.

Adelle, oblivious to my gaze, was chatting with Blake about their plans for the weekend. They seemed happy and carefree, and I felt a pang of jealousy. But I quickly pushed it aside, not wanting to ruin the friendly atmosphere.

As we finished our lunch and started packing up, Kennedy turned to us and said, "Hey guys, we should all hang out this weekend! Maybe go to the movies or something?"

Ethan nodded enthusiastically, and Jade and Cody agreed. Blake and Adelle exchanged a look, and then Blake said, "Yeah, that sounds cool. We're in."

I hesitated for a moment, unsure if I wanted to spend more time with Blake. But then I nodded, not wanting to be left out. "Yeah, sure. I'm in."

As we all started making plans, I couldn't help but wonder what the weekend would bring. Would I be able to keep my distance from Blake, or would I find myself falling for him again?

As we finished making plans, Kennedy exclaimed, "And to make it even better, let's have a karaoke night at Blake's house tonight! His parents are out of town, so we can make as much noise as we want!"

Ethan whooped in excitement, and Jade and Cody high-fived each other. Adelle smiled and leaned into Blake, who grinned and nodded. "Yeah, my house is game. Let's do it!"

I hesitated for a moment, unsure if I wanted to spend the evening at Blake's house. But then I shrugged and agreed, not wanting to be left out.

As it turned out, Tuesday was declared a surprise public holiday, and we all got a text from the school saying we had the day off. "Yes!" Kennedy screamed. "Now we can have a sleepover at Blake's house too!"

The plans were set. We would have a karaoke night, followed by a sleepover at Blake's house. I couldn't help but feel a mix of excitement and nerves. What would the night bring? Would I be able to keep my distance from Blake, or would I find myself getting closer to him?

As we all parted ways after lunch, I couldn't help but wonder what the night had in store for us. Little did I know, it would be a night to remember.
