My phone vibrated again. As I looked at it, it read "Nova: Of course I want to talk to you". I felt my face getting red again. I was about to text her back when, "Mr.Archer! Is that your phone I see?!" said Mr.Lambert, he was an older guy, maybe around 50, with light brownish hair that was starting on its path towards white, I quickly put the phone back in my pocket "No Sir." "I had best not see it again or else I will take it Mr.Archer" "Yes Sir". I wanted to text Nova back so bad but I couldn't or else I would get my phone taken up. I would rather text her back later than get it taken up and not text her back at all. I went the rest of the class without texting her back but when the bell rang for 3rd period I quickly took the phone out of my pocket and texted her back "Sorry, I almost got my phone taken up" and then grabbed all my stuff and left. About halfway through 3rd she texted me back, "It's okay." I quickly typed "So how was 2nd period." but then I quickly realized it sounded like I flirting so I deleted all of that text; then I wrote "Did anyone pick on you during 2nd?". I awaited anxiously for a reply until she replied with a calming "Surprisingly, no". It relaxed me that she hadn't been picked on while I was gone. I unlocked the phone and typed "Good. Maybe this is turning into a good day?". I sat awaiting her reply, hoping I didn't come off as flirty. I had already liked this girl after only about an hour and a half and I had no idea how she felt, or if she even cared me for me at all.
