"Dismissed!" The teacher barked.
Finally after and hour and a half of silence and stare offs I could get to my phone. Cal had texted me a couple of times, but nothing else. But something else caught my eye so i sent a quick reply:
Sorry I had detention :/
I caught up with mystery boy while he marched off to whatever car was his in the parking lot. "Hey, you!"
He turned around, fed up. "What on Earth do you want right now?"
"Stop staring at me. Seriously."
He held his hands up in mock fright. "Ooh so scary, what if I wasn't even looking at you?"
"But you were? Weren't you?" I asked now mortified. My embarrassment must have brought him joy because his lip twitched into a half smile.
"That," He placed his pointer finger onto my forehead, "is not the point. What if I wasn't staring at you. Do you do this to everyone you think looks at you, because this is a very tedious way to create a friendship."
His phone buzzed. I swatted his hand away. "Okay number one, we aren't friends, number two, you were staring at me, that's not something that happens to me everyday."
He checked his phone and the smile he had on disappeared into worry. He quickly shoved his phone into his pocket and ducked away. "I have to go."
"Well aren't you going to apologize?" I shouted after him as he ducked into his truck and reversed, almost hitting me, may I add. I watched him look down to send a text and then he pulled away quickly.
My phone went ding and I looked down. Detention, what did you do? :(
My face morphed into a smile for the first time today.
