To Love a Canadian -- mlm

Chapter 1

(Leland POV)

I walked into 2nd period English and saw him.. *Hank Spencer*, the cutest boy ever. I love his blonde mullet, his tiny frame, his fat jokes, his everything. he's just so AGJKGJGJGKGG!!!!! I just want to eat him up like a quarter pounder with cheese. I go to grab my chromebook, hoping that he will talk to me.. He always does, we're friends. Just friends. Only friends. We could be boyfriends, but Canadians and fatties can't be boyfriends. I sit down, my seat is next to him. He sits behind this stupid, blonde, who can't even pass the class. Everyone thinks they're dating and it's getting on my last flipping nerve. She gets to hang out with him because they're both friends with brianna. I like Brianna sometimes. But, it's that flippin blonde. *Rainey.* She's so flipping annoying and she always makes fat jokes about me. I turn to Hank and say, "Hey, Honk." I grin. "Shut up, fatty!" He turns away, blushing. H-h-h-h-h-he blushed? Maybe he does like me back!! I scoff, "no" I laugh, I can't tell if I'm blushing or if I'm just always red from being so fat.

Hank looks back towards the front of the classroom, his face still slightly pink. But, then, *Rainey* turns around towards Jeremiah to talk to him, and of course Hank looks at her. It was just a glance, but, darn she makes me mad. Whatever. No way Hank would like his sister's best friend, right.?? Gosh darn it Leland.. Stop overthinking.. The bell rings and Mrs. Coviello starts talking. We're watching The Outsiders, she turns it on. I sneak glances over at him every few minutes, I hope he doesn't catch me. Gosh darn, he's so pretty I can't look away. I steal another glance, and find Hank already staring in my direction, grinning. Gosh darn it, I've been caught! "What are you looking at, fatty?" Hank said to me. "Your mom" I quickly replied. I wanted to say that I was looking at the most handsome, amazing, funny boy in the whole universe, but I couldn't.. We are just friends. FRIENDS. I can't focus. All I can think about is him, but I need to focus! Focus, Roetteger, focus..

An agonizing 45 minutes of not talking to Hank later, class is over. It's time to go to 3rd period, math. Hank immediately leaves the class, he's walking alone. Yes! Now's my chance to go talk to him! CRAP! Rainey and Brianna start walking with him. We walk into math. Crap. I can't talk to him in math either.. We don't sit together. Of course, I have to sit with Rainey and Brianna. All they do is make jokes and make fun of me. They still somehow get all of their work done, and are passing. "Rainey, how the hell did you get 300?" Brianna says laughing, "I don't know!" Rainey says, laughing as well, she laughs like an idiot, whenever she laughs, she cries. I look over at Rainey's paper, she's so stupid! The answer was -12! "Yeah, how *did* you get 300?" I ask, with a snicker. I want to show Hank so we can laugh together about how stupid Rainey is. Rainey and Brianna continue to laugh at Rainey's stupid mistake. I continue to think about Hank.. He's so perfect.. His mullet, his glasses, his crazy shirts, everything about him is just so.... Dreamy.. It's hard to focus on math from how much I think about him, heck it's hard to focus on anything. Ever since I started liking him, it's been a bit hard on my grades..

Ms. Vore is making us do problems on our whiteboards, seeing how white the whiteboards are reminds me of Hank, his beautiful pale skin.. I don't write anything on my board. I can't stop thinking about him! "Leland, where is your whiteboard?" Ms. Vore asks, snapping me out of my trance. I look around and see everyone holding up their whiteboard with a solved problem on it. Oh, flip. I quickly solve the problem and show her my whiteboard. "That's gonna be a big negatory, BatMan." Ms. Vore says as I show her my whiteboard. I look down with defeat in my eyes. I can't keep on like this.. I have to be able to not think about Hank so much. It's affecting my grades.. All I want to do is think about and talk to Hank, but that's not possible. We can't be boyfriends anyways. He's a Canadian and I'm just a fatty.

Again, soon enough, class was over. Finally, it's time for my favorite part of the day, lunch! It's a Tuesday, so there's pizza for lunch! Even better, I'll be able to talk to Hank at lunch! I love lunch, and not just because of the food, but because I can talk to Hank!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I get in line for the cafeteria, thankfully, Hank is right behind me! I started talking to him. "Math was hard today, right Honk?" I said to him. "No, you're just a dumbass." He replied. I may be a dumb-booty, but im *his* dumb-booty. The line starts moving and we go inside. We grab our food and sit down at our table. And of course, Rainey and Brianna are there. Gosh darn it. I don't care that Brianna's there, but Rainey's always with her. Whatever. I just start eating and talking to everyone.

After lunch, I walk with Hank back to Ms. Vore's room to grab our binders. I had to go an entire class period without seeing him, so I have to make sure the time with him right now counts. Hank I guess decided that he's too good for me right now, because he pushes past me and says, "Move fatass!!" I watch as he goes faster and walks past me. I sigh, one day, that boy will be mine.
