She left.
I had to get ready for school before I missed the bus. I looked down and realized I was in my boxers.
I answered the door to crying Layna Burns in my f*cking superman boxer's. On the bright side, I guess atleast I was wearing a shirt.
Why did I not throw on some shorts? It was to late to be embarrassed about it... besides she didn't even notice... I hope...
Anyway I had to get ready for school.
Simon didn't really care that I was mad he gave Laney my number.
"Why would you give her my number?"
He just didn't get it.
"Dude, some hot girl asked for your number...You should be thanking me."
I don't know why I was getting so angry but he just called Laney "some hot girl" so I was getting defensive...so what.
"Do not call her that" I said as an impulse reaction. Great now simon was going to torment me about this already he was repeating
"Ooh someone has a crush" over and over again all home base. I couldn't do anything but role my eyes and ignore him.
I was going to see Layna in fourth period, only two hours from now and I had no idea what to expect. Either it would be awkward, she'd ignore me, or she would actually acknowledge my existence. Who knows what to expect.
I walked in the science room and she was already sitting at the table already reading what was assigned.
She looked up as I walked across the room and smiled at me. Friendly it is.
We were writing in our science notebooks and she slid her's over, so I could see and it said "Do u want to go to the mall after school?"
I didn't answer until we were walking down the hall
"Why are we going to the mall" I say confused.
She looks at me like I already should know.
"um, to go dress shopping."
I still was clueless
"and why are we going dress shopping?" I say.
She looked at me like it was obvious.
"So we can get something to wear to the wedding." She said slow and clear.
" Right. Ofcourse. The wedding. Do you want to meet up at the mall?" I asked.
She smiles and lightly punches me on the shoulder and says
"I'll pick you up say 3:30-ish"
That was nice of her to offer a ride.
"Sure see you then" I may have said a little to enthusiastically
"Okay" she smiles as she walks into her next class.
She was there in her pretty white car at 3:30 p.m sharp.
"Hey Lay" she smiled her perfect white teeth smile
"Hey em, get in " she added
"and by the way about this morning... nice superman boxer's."
Damn it she noticed.
