"Did you finish that history    assignment?"

"Hey Mae?"

"MAE" I heard a voice say.

"uh yeah" I looked at Sarah as I lean to my locker.

"What do you have on your mind lately?" she slams on her locker save.

"What do you mean?" I stared at the floor.

"for example, you don't listen to me when I talk to you." she throws her books in the locker.

"And you act like you're depressed." She looked at me.

"Nothing is going on." I lie to her. She stares me in the eyes for a little bit. She makes that creepy face every time she doesn't believe me.

"Really,everything is alright" I fake smiled at her and she gave me a eyebrow raise back.

"If you say so,now get you ass to class It's the most important time of the school year. I don't want you to be hold back this school year." She walks away.

"okay mom" I sighed.

As I walked behind her some tall boy with brown/blonde 'soft looking' hair and green/blue eyes I could stare at all day bumps into me. I accidentally spilled his coffee over his shirt

"uh sorry" I looked up to him.

"oh it's okay" he smiled at me.

"no really I should've look out" I tried to rub it away of his shirt.

"no really it's no problem"

"I can buy you a new one I mean-"

"Mae, it's okay" he smiled at me.

We looked each other in the eyes for a moment.

"wait..how do you know my name?"

"We have history together" he told me.

"really? I never noticed you in class.."

"wait you're Alex right? now I remember you. you're always messing with other boys."

"yeah haha,but Now I have to hurry to class. see you around" He smiled and walked away.

"wait your shirt!" I screamed.

"don't worry about it" he yelled back and walks around the corner.

"Alex" I bite my lip and walk to class.

"Mae, you're late. Again." Mrs. McCall looked at me and told me to take a seat.

"why are you late? you walked right behind me." Sarah whisper yelled at me.

"I had to pee" I told her.

"next time, pee faster"

I sighed and made a bright smile.

"Ladies pay attention please" Mrs. McCall took her glasses of and continued talking.

I opened my notebook and start writing down Alex's Name with heart around them. Then I wrote down Ethan's name with hearts around them. We haven't spoken to each other for a few days. its feels weird.

"Alex or Ethan?" I ask myself.

well Ethan is happy with his girlfriend so why not try Alex.

I put a line trough his name and made a circle around Alex's name.
