Kevin's POV

She's looking at the note I gave her. I give myself a high five on the inside. That was a really smooth move. I look back at my book so she doesn't notice that I've been staring at her. She looks a bit uneasy. Please don't say no. Please. She starts to wriggle out of her seat. She murmurs something about being right back.
She's practically running out of the library now.
Shit.
I try to concentrate on the Math. Who am I kidding? I just asked Carla to be my date to THE Senior prom and she fucking ran away! Was it my breath? I do a little body check. Mouth, armpits. Everything seems perfectly fine. I sink into my seat in sorrow. Someone is behind me. I really hope it's not the librarian. I'm in a good mind to tell her to piss off. I'm surprised when I feel hands over my eyes. Is this even allowed?
"Guess who" So it's a girl with a really husky voice. I stifle a laugh.
"I don't know." She takes her hands off my eyes and takes a seat beside me. It's Britney. Should've expected it. She'd had her eyes on me since I walked into this place. Well, I can't help that I'm this appealing.
"Hey Kev! Gonna tell me what you're doing here with the nerd?"
The little bitch. "Don't call her that." I say through gritted teeth.
"Woah woah, calm yourself little tiger", she lets out a loud laugh "All I did was ask okay? So, aren't you gonna tell me?" She's batting her eyelashes at me. What the fuck is that meant to do for her?
"I asked her to prom okay?" I blurt before I could even stop myself. Remind me to slap myself later on.
Her face turns red. Then she tries to put on a smile. So fake.
"Really? You did that? Well what did she say?"
Before I get a chance to reply, I see Carla walk over to get her books from where she sat previously. I try my best not to make eye contact with her. She's about to leave. I stand up almost immediately, cutting Britney off from her blabbing. I tap her slightly on the shoulder. She turns around. She looks angry. And hot. She's angry. That's more important.
"Hey! You never came back."
"I came back but there was already someone else there. So I figured it'll be rude and found somewhere else to sit."
I'm surprised she answered so calmly. She's about to leave again. Im not letting that happen. I need an answer. I grab her elbow.
I'm mesmerized by her anger. I barely stop myself from pulling her in for a hug, stroking her soft brown hair and hearing her breathe so close to me.
"What??"
That immediately brings me back to earth.
"You never attempted the last question I gave you." I flash her a dazzling smile. At least I think it is.
"I'll think about it okay?"
Not what I expected but it is better than a no. I watch her walk away.
I run my hands through my hair and let out a deep breath I didn't know I was holding.

"So Kevin. Did she say yes?" it's Jason. We're like brothers or best friends although we would never admit it to anyone or each other.
"She ran away" I joked. His eyes widened. "Okay I'm joking. Not entirely though. She did run away. She said she'd think about it."
He started laughing. And laughing. And laughing.
"What kind of girl is that? Keeping you pending overnight. Does she want to give you a heart attack. Damnnnnnn. Sorry bro. " He gives me a sympathetic smack in the back. He starts snickering. "Dyou know what will really suck?" he doesn't even give me a chance to reply. "If she eventually says no."
I smile "No. Impossible. She can't say no to this."
"But really. She could. It's kinda embarrassing that she's taller than you are. "
"That doesn't matter. At least not to me. I just want a reply so I can move on if its negative. "
"That's the spirit!" he high fives me.
