Guys are annoying.

            "Hey, what's up Christina?" It's Jack Hilton, the guy who is so familiar with his tricks to all girls in our school. He is from the 12thGrade. Jack Hilton iswell-known as a playboy and forever will be. I know he's trying on me but he just can't get that I'm not stupid. "Yes, Mr. Playboy Hilton. Can I help you?" "Wow, you know my nickname. That's interesting. Being a loner huh?" He is so rude but I have to control my anger cause then he'll say I'm pretty when I'm mad and stuffs to make me tricked. So I'm responding as polite as I can. "Mr. Playboy Hilton, I'm not being a loner. I just want to be alone. So, can you please?" I continue eating salad that I’ve taken just now without even bothering him.But Jack says nothing and I know Jack's attention is focused somewhere else.

            It's Tucker coming to my table. "Yo Tucks!How yadoin?" How rude he's acting right now and I felt like want to kick him right now. Hello! This is Tucker, the school's sports leader. Show some respect please. "Hi Jack and Christina.Christina... So both of you know each other?" "Yup I know her. Tina is my girlfriend." What does that supposed to mean? The fact that Jack and I is a couple will never happen. "Jack, if that ever happen, that means that I'm the most stupid girl in the world. And the fact now is that I'm not your girlfriend. So I'm the smartest girl in the world." Tucker look confused now. "Hey, can I join you Tina. There's no other table that's empty." Oh my god!It totally has to be a yes. Christina, you must control your behaviour in front of Tucker.But, for a guy that is so damn popular like him, I know there’ll be hundreds of students offering their place to him. Well, nevermind, cause he’s sitting next to me! "Sure. This is not my table. Anyone can sit here. My name is not written on it or something."

            Trying to make a joke is not working. Jack's being so annoying right now. He just loves to ruin my day. As Tucker put his lunch beside my seat, Jack pushes Tucker's food to the other side of the table and sits beside me. I can feel Tucker's uneasiness. Tucker slowly makes his way to the seat opposite to me. I think that's much better. Thanks Jack. Now Tucker and I can look at each other anytime we want to. As we eat in complete silence, awkwardness spreads in the air. Suddenly Jack breaks the silence. "Hey Tucker, you kept starring at Christina from just now. How many times do I have to remind you that Christina is my girlfriend? You had better watch your own eyes. I don't want our friendship to end in a bad way."

            Jack is going too far right now. I'm not defending myself but I felt really bad for Tucker. Is Jack so into me? I mean like he's a playboy. He has more than 10 girlfriends out there but he really wants to fight for me? I think this is just one of his tricks. He wants me to fall for him and then he'll make me look like I'm crazy of him. "Jack what are you talking about? You're totally not my boyfriend. How many times do I have to tell you the same thing?" "I'll prove that I'm your boyfriend. You don't have to keep our relationship a secret anymore Christina." Suddenly I feel like Jack is going to do something stupid. He comes near me and tries to kiss me. I take a big leap by avoiding him fast and I slap him.

            "I've tried to remind you that I'm not your girlfriend! Please leave me alone!" My voice catches everyone's attention as everyone stare and start to talk about me. I feel so humiliated right now. Without looking at anyone, I ran to the canteen's exit. I can hear Tucker is calling my name. I just ignore him and run to my locker.
