During science I sat next to Olivia, she smiled at me every once in a while but I couldn't seem to concentrate on any of my work, I just kept staring. She didn't really seem to notice since she was actually working properly. The teacher lady moved me to the front of the room half way through the class because I wasn't working. I told her I wasn't going to work and it didn't even matter where I was sitting but she moved me anyways. As soon as I got up the Josh kid asked her if he could move closer to the board just so he could sit next to Olivia, I couldn't even believe him! He had some balls trying to take all of my glory all the time.
After class I walked behind Josh and Olivia in the hallway, she laughed at all of his jokes. I heard them and they weren't even funny, I wondered why she would urge him on by laughing, all he did was go on and on about himself. She could do so much better, she could do so much better like me. I could be everything for her but she liked that stupid Josh kid! I began feeling overwhelmed and turned off from behind the duo to go hide in the bathroom. I ran as fast as I could and hid in a stall, locking the door and sitting with my feet up on the seat so no one could tell it was me by my shoes. I sat in the bathroom all break. I didn't even leave when classes started up again. I couldn't face my peers.
