I sat across the table from the teacher. Her office wasn't very welcoming, a horrible smell entering my nostrils as if someone hadn't long died in here, but I was only going to be here for a matter of seconds.
"Right, can you pass me your review please?" she asked. Shit. It was left with Joe. I walked out the classroom to still see him reading from the clipboard, his tiny pieces of hair brushing away from his head and flowing with the movement of the wind as it came through the window. I clear my throat earning attention from him, "Could I have that please?" I say placing my hand out.
"Sure!" And with that he passed over the clipboard and I just smiled, walking back into the office.

"Here," I bluntly spoke, passing over the clipboard. Her eyes scanned over the paper and she peered up giving me a reassuring look, gesturing for me to leave the office. Without hesitation I had picked speed up in my feet slightly and was walking out. As soon as the door was shut, I leant against it a sigh of relief taking over me as a giggle interrupted my thoughts making me jump slightly.
"Joe what the hell, you made me jump so bad, I thought it was that dickhead of a teacher," I moaned at him, trying to hide the grin beginning to show on my face.
"Cmon, you couldn't be scared of a pretty face like mine," he winked back, causing both of us to giggle at each other as we got slightly lost in the moment.  For a second all the negative thoughts escaped my mind until Joe awkwardly coughed as I realised I had just been staring at him, my mouth gaped open. My cheeks began burning red and  I knew exactly what I felt. I still had that crush on Joe. Why the fuck does my life have to be so complicated, I just wanted to get him out of my head, not back in.

*JOES POV*
I could sense that we were both lost in the moment and as soon as I went to lean in, I remembered that I couldn't do it. She didn't feel the same way, Kayla had even told us when we played two truths one lie. My heart was saying yes, my mind repeatedly telling me not to. My gut instinct was to listen to my mind so that's exactly what I did. Kayla hadn't spoken for about 2 minutes now and neither had I, but it was nearing to lunch and I knew everyone would be curious as to where and I knew assumptions would be made so I coughed getting her attention once again.

The redness grew and grew in her cheeks before I believed it could anymore. I felt slightly bad about doing this but it couldn't exactly last forever could it. Kayla was looking at me weird, as if expecting me to say something.
"Er, erm..... sorry about that aha. I just erm, need to errrr.. GET GOING FOR LUNCH," I spoke realising how bad that sounded and as if I was using it as an excuse to get away.
"Oh no no it's fine, I need to meet someone in about a minute for lunch. Anyways best be off bye," Kayla huffed back, flicking her hair down the corner of my cheek and across my jawline as she left in the opposite direction as to which I was going in.

*KAYLAS POV*
Well that was definitely the most awkward conversation ever. I couldn't get rid of the thoughts looping around my head. No surely he wasn't interested in me; It was all a dream, exactly how it was before. I actually can't believe I still have them feelings still. I don't want to show that to Joe though as ive already said I was over that. Maybe I should play hard to get and be flirty.
                    *********
I eventually look up to see where I was heading and noticed a beaming ginger haired boy, Josh. Just the person I wanted to see to lift the awkwardness off of me.

*JOSHS POV*

I noticed a slighted worried looking Kayla approach me. Already I thought she was fit dayum. I gave her a warm smile which she returned but I knew it was fake.
"What's up Kay-Kay?" I asked.
"Nothing" She mumbled.
"C'mon you can tell me" I say whilst nudging her.
"I'm just pissed off with this teacher" She grumbles.
"Aw don't let them get in the way of enjoying your first day" I say cheerily.
She seems to have thought about what I had considered and a grin plastered on her face. "Your right,I'm not gonna let that prick get in my way" She shouts. We both laugh at everyone's reactions to her 'mild' language.
