_School Days_

Days passed, and Jamie and I grew closer. We'd meet for lunch, study together, or simply hang out.

In class, we'd exchange playful glances or notes.

Our friendship deepened, and I felt grateful.

One morning, Emily approached me.

"Alex, what's going on with you and Jamie?" she asked.

I shrugged.

"Just friends."

Emily raised an eyebrow.

"Really?"

I nodded.

"Yeah."

Emily smiled.

"I'm happy for you."

As Emily walked away, Jamie appeared beside me.

"Hey," he said.

"Hey," I replied.

We walked together to our lockers.

"Want to grab lunch today?" Jamie asked.

"Sure."

Our daily routine continued, filled with laughter and camaraderie.
