"Oh.. I'm sorry," I bumped into someone on the soccer field, and I tripped and fell with my hands also falling to the ground, "I couldn't see where I was going.."
The person didn't say a word, and they helped me up while putting their hand out to me and picking me up.
"Oh, thank-" I stopped and I looked at their face, "Robert?"
"..How do you know my name?" Robert said in a confusing, but calm tone.
When I was right in front of him, I didn't notice how much my feelings poured out. I just liked Robert since 7th grade, and my heart hurt every time I looked at him from Afar...He's perfect up close..
"I like you so much..." I blankly stare into Roberts face, as I quickly realized what I said, "Wait! Ignore that..I'm sorry.." I shake my head fast as I look down, feeling more embarrassed than I bumped into him.
"....Then let's go out." Robert calmly responded.
---------------------------------------------------
"You don't have to be that nervous," Robert looked down on me, who was twiddling my fingers quickly, "You're making me uncomfortable with whatever you are doing with your hands.""Oh." I quickly separated my hands and looked away, "I'm sorry."
"It's fine." Robert looked back up forward, "So you play soccer, huh?"
"Well, yeah." I awkwardly smiled while still looking away, "Well I didn't do anything my freshman year so I might as well do something my sophomore year."
"Oh." Robert responded with no emotion
Why is he so forward? It's like he don't express anything well...
"So uh.." I tried to start off talking again, "Why were you at the soccer field anyways?"
"Well.." Robert coughed awkwardly, "I uh- was just watching the girls practice. That's all. I think soccer is interesting."
Oh? Just to watch us play? That's weird. Who would've known he'd just be there for fun..
"Don't you play any sports?" I responded quickly
"Basketball." He said bluntly, "but I joined the boys' team of soccer and our practice isn't today."
"Woah." I smiled, "You joined two sports?"
"Yeah." Robert said with confidence but with no expression.
We walk up to the Athletic shop and Robert opened the door for me, as I awkwardly walked in while looking around.
"Do you see anything you like?" Robert said as he walked behind me while looking around also.
"Honestly.. no-" suddenly my eyes widened with excitement. "Wait! I want that shirt!"
"What?" Robert looked in the direction I was looking at, "The Chicago Bulls?"
"They are my favorite basketball team." I smiled brightly
"What a coincidence." Robert smirked as he picked up the shirt, "It'a mine too."
Really?! Do we actually have something in common?! This is a dream come true!
"Be right back, I'll go pay for this.." Robert picked up a matching shirt. "And this too."
"Oh- Okay.." I blushed as he handed me his jacket in my arms. He walked away and went up to the counter, which had a short line.
