#9 ~ In a Daze

I honestly hate when people tell you they have a secret, yet won't tell you what it is. Like honestly, if they really didn't want you to know why would they even bring it up. Especially when their secret affects you. It like 'OMG can you just spill already'. Anyway, I think you guys all know what I'm getting at. Yup, Zane will not budge. What makes it worse is that he was away the next day for the English Romeo and Juliet excursion, and since we are in different classes mine wasn't till next week.

It took a week to find out. A whole SIX DAYS. It was a Monday afternoon, at Maxs house. We were working on our music assignment; I was standing nervously in front of the mic, staring at it in horror. "Put you face closer, almost touching it" Maxs dad told me, as the guys were fiddling with their instruments. "o..okay" I stammered as I moved a few shuffled steps closer to the mic. "good" he said, exiting through the side door.

As soon as I saw him leave I quickly took a step back. "Okay let's begin" Max said. When we got to the chorus I was more confident, as I knew the lyrics better. "You'll be the moon I'll be the earth and when we burst, start over, oh darling, begin again begin again" I sang, staring at Zane who was opposite to me. In the middle of this he pointed at me with his drum stick, making my heart almost stop. Then I quickly looking away, hiding my blushing face. Bad move. I turned to face Max who was standing at the keyboard and when our eyes met he gave me a wink. Smiling a little I looked away, down at my music this time though.

After a few more run throughs we decided to take a break. Rushing across to the couch I flopped down, sinking into the comfy cushions. Noticing Zane next to me I looked at him and asked him "Can you tell me what it is now?"

Almost as soon as I asked this Max and Mark decided it would be a good time to exit. Noticing the room had suddenly gone quiet I asked again "Are you going to tell me?"

He looked at me nervously, mumbling something under his breath. "What?" I said, puzzled. "I like you" he said. I think about five seconds past before I fully registered what he just said. Without thinking a leant over and gave him a hug. Quickly retracting I thought to myself 'idiot!'

That was the Monday. The Tuesday went pretty uneventful. I wasn't going to tell Zane that I liked him as well. Nuh Uh. The only big things were that it was my dad's birthday and Max, Mark, Zane and I performed our song in front of the class. The next day I didn't have to go to school as it was my turn to go to the English excursion.

In the morning our teacher loaded us onto the coaches so we could get to the city ASAP. I quickly slid into a window seat, Kirk sitting down next to me. The ride was alright if you think becoming super bus sick and nearly fainting and vomiting alright.

When we eventually made it to First Fleet Park I staggered out of the bus, holding my stomach. After a few minutes my bus sickness disappeared and my class got ready to go on our 'tour'. We walked around the city looking around.

"Hey Eliza" My teacher calls out to me "Can you hold these?" I walk over to her and I am presented with her rings "Sure miss" I answered slipping them over my finger. "And this" she hands over the stack of sheets she was carrying. "And take these" I then swiftly and carefully grab her sunglasses out of her mouth where they were being held away from the sunscreen.

"Miss, The argyle and the cut are both down there" Kirk said, pointing to two restaurants blow the bridge were are standing on. "We're not going to restaurants idiot" I said before I burst into uncontrollable giggles. "I think the argyle cut is the same place" Ellie says and Sara agrees with "Yeah. Miss I think it's down there."

We had a lunch break where we could go and get whatever we wanted. Ellie, Sarah and Kirk got gelatissiomos (Lame) and Emily and I got giant two scoop ice-cream cups from Baskin and Robin. I got Choc Chip Cookie Dough and Fairy Floss. Alone they are amazing, but when the last parts melted into each other I must say it wasn't the most delicious thing I've ever tasted.
