I like you

The Daynes

Aden had forgotten about Lucy's accident and clearly forgotten the rich/cool kid's name.

it was History last subject with Ms. Atiksan. she continued the lesson on USA Presidents and gave them a president's essay for tommorow.

on dissmissal Aden fixed his locker. he saw many students doing their business and it gave him back ache from the physical education exercise.

"where are the others?" from behind Aden he saw katherine..

'the crazy lunatic" he thought

"what are you talking about?" he asked confused

"I thought we had to meet them here?"

she looked like she ran from this morning to this late noon.

"meet who?"

"them?....Emily,Robin, Alex....."she said as if Aden knew.

right now Aden wanted to ditch her but he did.... in a pleasant awkward way.

Aden started to wriggle (on purpose)

"umm...........Katherine?" his tone also wriggle

"yes????>>>>>>" katherine looked wierded out... 

"its working" Aden had in mind

"I need to go now......" he pointed down to the floor and his legs crossed. he bit his lip. looking like a lipless human being.

"ugh.... okay, see you tommorow"

but Aden knew that Katherine knew he was faking it..maybe.

he got home but he visited the park. maybe....just maybe.... Stacy would be there.

he walked faster than ever. but not really fast. 

he reached the entrance and it was still peaceful. but not as peacefull as without smoke addicts, pennyboard riders and yoga grannies. dogs too.

Aden already thought of inviting friends to his house to watch a marathon of Harry Potter for the homecoming 4th of July. he thought of asking stacy out too.

he saw a girl on a violet shirt and DBA short uniform. the same blond pony, the same fragrance, the same place.

"Stacy-" Aden hesitated but went on.

she turned around and Aden sat beside her on the log.

"so... how was Physical Education today?" Stacy said chuckling.

Aden, again, didn't mind her.

"where is the fawn?" he suddenly became serious but it was just the tone he used.

"oh... him...he wandered off I guess..."she said with one side of her mouth.

"you mean he's gone?" Aden bent his head to take a better view on Stacy.

he could feel the pain in his eyes as he look towards Stacy. it was aching he could see the bridge of his nose like an illusion of the eyes.

"Stacy, I wanted to ask if-" Aden wanted to ask her first on the marathon but Stacy cut him off.

"Aden what would you feel if someone odd liked you?" Stacy's glowy face fell.

"I don't know....maybe I'll like them too or maybe if I didn't it's probably because wer'e not-" Aden wasn't done yet then...

"for eachother...." Stacy continued

Silence...........

"do you think......Trevor would......." she stopped and led out a sigh which brought her back.
