One Shot Stories

Anne & Maya

"Wake Up!!" shouted my mother across my room. "You're going to be late for school."

"Ughhh...." I moaned as I rolled out of bed and into the shower.

I'm Anne, 15 and in 3rd year high school, tall and brunette.

I love going to school. I mean, I don't love, LOVE school or the books, I love seeing my friends there. But even though I do not like school, I am sure doing well in my studies, not to brag or anything, but I'm a straight A student.

Anyway, I went to school and I saw my friends near our lockers.

"Hey!" said Alison. She is my best friend among my other friends. We're like sisters!

I smiled and opened my locker.

"Where's Maya?" I asked them. She is one of my friends too.

"Maybe she's late" replied Alison.

"Whoops, there he is.." she said it in a singing voice. Even if she had no singing voice. No Offense Alison.

I turned back and saw Jake, my ultimate crush. I had a crush on him since, like forever! No, just kidding, since the day I stepped into the hight school world.

I looked at him walking so flawlessly. I stared at his beautiful smile and his really hot looks.

"I think you're drooling." said Mary. She's one of my friends.

"Wha-?" I replied. I looked back in my locker where I have a mirror hanging on its door and I wasn't drooling. Or at least that's what I want them to think.

"Why don't you just tell him that you like him?" asked Alison and Susen. Susen is my smart - ass friend. She is also my study buddy.

"I can't." I replied look down and disappointed.

"Why not? Afraid he does not like you back?" asked Mary.

"No." I replied softly.

"Then what?" said Susen.

"I know he doesn't like girls like me. He's popular and I'm a nerd. It doesn't work that way." I replied.

"Oh please, you watch too much movies. Enough with the drama." said Alison. "Just tell him you like him and see what happens."

"You're right." I said and walked where Jake was.

"You go girl!" I can hear Susen shouting across the hall.

I looked back and put a thumbs up and continued walking.

I walked outside where Jake was. How did I know that? No, I'm not a stalker. I saw him walked to this direction just now.

There. There I saw Jake. He was hugging a girl. This was no ordinary girl, it was my friend, Maya. Jake hugged her and kissed her in the cheeks. I also heard them saying 'I Love You' to each other.

I felt like the world came crashing on me. Maya knows that I like Jake and she told me she'd help me to get Jake's attention. But, here she is, spending time with Jake when its suppose to be me.

My mind became blank and tears rolled down my cheeks and I went back inside and into my locker I grabbed my bag and run out the other exit and went home.

My friends chased after me but they couldn't catch up. I can hear them shouting my name and asking questions but I ignored them.

My friends called me but I didn't pick up. They also left messages but I didn't reply. I stayed in my room and had some ice - cream to make me happy. Food always makes me happy.

Then I received a message from Maya. It says:

I know why you cried and its because of me. I'm sorry but when you told me you like Jake and I said I will help you, I really mean it. But I fell in love with him along the way. I'm sorry I kept it a secret. I didn't want you to get hurt. I'm really sorry.

I was speechless. But our friendship is much more important than boys. I forgave Maya and we became close friends again.

The next day in school, I told my other friends everything and they are happy that we became friends again.

We went to the cafeteria and had some coffee.

The End.
