Hey Peeps,

Sorry if I don't upload soon or I'm on a weird schedule. I'm going completely off memory and want to keep in key details. Shanks ^.^,

Grace.

Love? Hell, I've barely ever even liked someone enough to want to get to know them. Whatever happened to if they were cute, you liked them? I thought to myself as I walked down the hallway.

You know how, you can just feel the air around you change. Maybe the air doesn't change though. Maybe you start to open your eyes.

And realize what the meaning of everything really is.

For me though, it wasn't a slow process. It was like being catapuleted into some other dimension.

Where everything is based on the stupid shit you do.

I've never done anything record worthy, considering I was considered an invisible nerd. So, I started to realize, that people were starting to know me.

Because of Deirdre.

As the classes moved on, I had two classes with Deirdre. FACS and PE. Both my RA's. So, I started to notice small things that Deirdre would do. Like stare at me from his table that he sat at in FACS.

The FACS room was tiny so, it was kind of not to notice.

And then, something big happened. Something that basically shot the goose in the head or whatever the expression is.

And it deepened the crush-like feelings I had for Deirdre.

Of course you know that when it comes to the test of strength, guys absolutely have to show off in PE. Because, honestly, it's the only thing they really exceed at.

So, they were splitting up activities in PE. Field Hockey (outdoors) and Artchery. Of course, me having done Field Hockey outside and it being as cold as fuck, I decided to stay inside and do artchery.

They split the gym in half. One side against the wall would be the people doing Field Hockey, the other would be Artchery.

I stood over at the Artchery wall with my friend. Artchery had a lot less people than planned aparently.

My eyes were locked on Deirdre from across the gym.

The teachers told everyone to sit down as they counted out the people on each side, Deirdre staring at me the whole time from the Field Hockey side.

I was disappointed because the guy I liked was going to be away from me for weeks. I let out a sigh.

"There are too many people on this side," the teacher said, pointing to the Field Hockey side "Someone needs to switch."

I pleaded Deirdre with my eyes. Please. I thought towards him. A girl got up and walked over to our side, which was made up of all girls.

Please.

All the sudden, right as the teacher was about to confirm the switch, Deirdre got up, in front of all the other guys, and walked over to sit against the all girls Artchery wall.

The teacher nodded and my heart swelled.

He sat on the other end I was on and held my eyes the whole time as he walked.

My heart thudded. His eyes were blue.
