Haley's POV -
Did he just..? What are we going to talk about? Beetles eating donuts in traffic? I don't mind though, I'll use any excuse to speak to him. Ashley walked into the school and I ran over to her. "ERHMERGERD ERHMERGERD ERHMERGERD ERHMERGERD GUESS WHAT?" I squealed out.
"You're pregnant?" she guessed.
"What, yeah totally. But no, Sal wants to hang out in lunch and talk!!" I started hyperventilating. Ashley started freaking out with me, but then the bell rang. We parted ways and I headed to my first block. All I could think about was Sal and what we were going to do in lunch.
"Haley? Can you read the next paragraph?" A voice called out. Huh? Oh god, I'm lost. What do I read? "They had walked in single file down the path..," Another voice whispered next to me.
Oh ok, "They had walked in single file down the path, and even in the open one stayed behind the other," I read out a bit quietly. I turned to the person next to me, "Thanks." Then the bell rang. Saved by the bell.
I walked over to my next class, then I spotted Sal in the crowded hallway. Should I wave or ignore him? He made his way through the people and walked over to me. "Hey," he smiled and waved.
"Hi," I slightly smiled as we walked side by side to the 100 hallway. There was a silence between us, but I didn't mind. It was a nice, I kind of enjoyed just walking with him. He walked me to my class and dropped me off. "Bye, I'll see you in lunch," he smiled shyly.
I smiled back and nodded, "Okay." I walked into the classroom, smiling all to myself.
