We'll Be Fireproof

Chapter Ten

I can't stop smiling. It's Simon. The sweetest person I've ever spoken to is also the cutest boy I've ever laid eyes on. It's a dream come true.

Don't freak out, okay? I see you at school and every time I get all jittery and nervous because you're so fucking cute. You are my dream boy.

No way. I blend into the crowd. I have two friends. I'm a nobody. I don't think I am who you think I am.

Blends in? He's always stood out. His chin always up and his eyes always wandering. His sweater covered fingers sliding his big glasses back up the bridge of his nose. He could never blend in. It's only him who catches my eye.

Oh my god. I need to know who you are.

I grin and run my fingers through my hair. Like hell I'm going to tell him.
