(Book 1) High School Crush: Not Meant To Be

Time to Get Creative (25)

I_Know_It_All101: Looks like some know exactly who they want to ask, it's time to get creative

-Zac's POV-

Me: Are you sure?

Niall: Yeah

Me: I'm going for it

Niall: Good luck

-Niall's POV-

I took my two tickets out of my drawer and stared at them for a moment. Looks like I'm gonna have to find someone else to join me.

-Cassie's POV-

I can't wait any longer. I have to take a chance. I'm gonna ask him myself. Who says a girl can't ask a guy to homecoming?

-Aaron's POV-

Please say yes. I knocked on her door.

-Amanda's POV-

I popped some more popcorn in my mouth while I babysat my cousins, who were sitting in from of the TV watching SpongeBob.

"Alright Pinhead, your time is up," said SpongeBob in a country accent.

"Who you callin' Pinhead?" Asked Patrick with a face my cousins laughed at so loud.

Young minds. But I won't judge, I can turn on a cartoon ever so often. I just recently watched Finding Nemo then Finding Dory and it was perfection.

"Alright kids it's lunch time!" My mom came in the door and said excitedly. The kids got up and ran to the kitchen to see what interesting thing she made.

When our cousins come over, mom always cooks these creative art dishes that end up disappearing completely off the plate when they're done. She makes eating fun.

I walk downstairs and set my popcorn bowl on the counter to see what my mom made this time on the table.

It was an ice cream cone, the cone made of a triangular cut PB&J sandwich and the ice cream part just bananas in the form of a swirled cream cone on top their plates. Next to it were Rice Krispie Treats for when they were done eating their "ice cream." I guess in this household desserts first.

"Thanks Cousin Riley," said the kids one by one.

"You're welcome. And after this we can go to the park to play outside," she informed them and started cleaning what she used to make their creative dishes.

"I still don't understand why you can't cook meals like this for us sometimes," I complained.

"You don't need that to eat what's good for you, you should be able to do it on your own,"

"I'm pretty sure in some study, making food attractive increases the chance of me actually eating better better,"

"Eating well better?"

"You know what I meant," I said picking my popcorn bowl up and going to my room enjoying a couple minutes away from my cousins.

Cassie: SOS

Me: Your ship needs saving?

Cassie: Yes! My shit needs saving

Me: I said ship

Cassie: How am I going to ask Zac to homecoming?

I was shocked reading that. She's actually serious about this crush on Zac thing.

Me: You still have time to think. You got your ticket though right?

Cassie: Yes, but I'm debating on whether I should get a second one for him
