My hands were shaky. My heart was beating. He would never like me. I'm just a mental little brat that can't do anything right. That's what everyone says...
"Hey, Cody. Um, can I ask you something?" I said, nervously awaiting his answer.
"Ewww! The sick girl is talking to Cody! Disgusting!" Brittany Hatfield. Ugh I hated her. She was the queen bee in the school, the Regina George of Jackson High. Yes, I went to school at Jackson High. You may have heard of it (A/N: I just made up a random name for a high school. There's probably a number of Jackson Highs, but I'm not talking about any of them in particular, just BTW). It was famous -at least in our county it was- for being the most transracial high school in the state. There were African-Americans, Asians, Italians, Hispanics, Indian, and even some Persians. I don't know why everyone decided to live here though. There's about 1500 people in our school, and that's a LOT. Plus, we don't even have that big of a school.
Anyways, like always, she was being a complete jerk. I couldn't believe that she as ruining this moment, my one chance! I hated her so much. I looked up at Cody and hoped he would still give me time to ask my question and not walk away.
"Brittany, leave her alone. She's not disgusting; you are. Now, what were you gonna ask me?" he said as he turned back towards me. Wait did he just... stand up for me?!?! OMG!!!! Ok. calm down. Deep breath.
"Oh, I uh...wanted to ask if...uh you wouldn't mind... um... going to dinner or the movies...sometime? Or we could go anywhere you want, or whatever time and place works and you don't even havetosayyesIjustreallylikeyoubutthat'sokayifyoudon'tlikemebackIwasjusthopingthatmaybe-"
RRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Th bell cut off my super-fast-and-nervous talking.
"Uh, sorry, I got to go. Uh, talk to you later." he said as he walked away.
Oh no, he didn't like me! That's why he walked away! I felt...crushed inside. I couldn't believe it.
That was all I thought about until fourth period, when I got the note. It was sticking out of my locker, and I grabbed it as I was passing to fourth period from third.
Meet me at the library at lunch tomorrow, 12:15 sharp. Be there
-C
I immediately knew it was Cody. I was so happy! I couldn't wait until tomorrow!!
