We went to the band room where I sat near the door, "When is she going to get here?" Hailey kept complaining about Milly's absence.
"She's out with flower boy right now." I stated.
"How would you know?" Zander asked, which to be fair the question is kinda valid, I've not been at school all day and she doesn't exactly like me.
"I saw her?" I said.
"I guess that makes sense" Hailey states, "then we have to work harder, uh Drew" she looks to me "we need a replacement guitarist while she's busy could you?"
"Uh yeah sure." I pick up the guitar as we play "Starlight" apparently Jake and Hailey wrote it together.
~~After Practice~~
"Wow who knew we could have fun with Drew of all people." Hailey laughs, Zander still looks distrusting but thats understandable.
"Yeah," I weakly laugh "who knew?"
"There's about five minutes left of lunch, who going to the cafeteria with me?" Zander states looking at his phone.
"Well I should get back off campus soon," I say "I don't want to get caught skipping."
"Yeah me either" Jake chuckles.
Jake and I get in my car and leave quickly, "Thanks Drew," Jake looks at me, he looks at me in the way that made me fall for him, where his eyes soften slowly, they look deep into me like he can see everything.
"Oh, uhm no problem!" I awkwardly chuckle.
We drive around for a bit talking about everything and nothing.
"Drew, I need to talk to you about something." he says, "It's really important." My heart starts racing, like it might jump out of my chest.
"Yeah?" I stutter the Y.
"I have a crush on" he starts "this, uh," he looks down "girl." his tone sounds unsure.
"Oh." I state quietly to myself.
"I think she," he struggles as he says she, "might like me? What should I do?"
I look at him, I really want him to be mine, but if its not me he wants then who am I to stop him? "Tell her." i say, a little too disconcerned.
"Are you, okay? Drew?" he worries.
"I'm fine, just tell her how you feel." i respond.
"I love you." he says.
"Yeah, like that," my heart breaks "but with her."
"There is no girl, Drew." he looks at me. "I love you"
"Oh."
