We were both closer than we ever have been before. Our faces inched closer. I didn't exactly know what was going on, but whatever it was made me happy. Our faces got so close, I could feel each of his breathes. At the last minute his phone rang.
"Hello?" he said picking up the phone.
"Okay, Ill be home soon." He said.
"Sorry, just my mom." He said laughing.
"It was really good seeing you, we should hang out again." I said smiling.
"Yeah, for sure. Well I have to go, see you." He said and gave me a smile. He waved and left my house.
I flopped onto my bed and just smiled. I felt so happy, like something just changed my life forever, and I think he did. My cheeks were burning red, I could feel it. I took a deep breath in, then let it out.
"I'm going to bed now, goodnight mom." I said closing my door. Tomorrow was school, so I had to get a good sleep. After tossing and turning in my bed, I fell asleep.

I woke up to a ding. I heard my phone, who was texting me now? I looked at the time. 2:15 shined in green numbers on my clock.
"Ugh." I said to myself.
I turned over and checked my phone, I had a text from Shawn.

I shut off my phone and turned back on my side. I some how immediately fell asleep, which usually never happens

I woke up to my mom saying "Sweetheart time to get up!"
I forced myself out of bed.
"Ok. I'm up." I said.
I got out of bed and checked my phone, remembering all the late night texts with Shawn.
I just smiled at the texts. I got out of bed, made some breakfast, and got dressed.
"I'm leaving for school. Bye mom! Bye dad!" I yelled and walked out the door.
Once I made my way to school, I saw my friend Jenna.
"Hey Jen!" I yelled and she waved to me with a goofy smile. Something to know about Jenna is that she always picks you up when your down. She always has some sort of smile on her face, which makes everyone else smile too. Jenna and I have been best friends for as long as I can remember.
"I need to tell you all about the weekend! I met this cute guy, I think he likes me." I said excitedly.
"OMG! what's his name?? Tell me more!" Jenna said almost screaming.
Before I could started blabbing about Shawn, the bell rang. We both walked towards the school. Jenna and I didn't have first period together either, so I'd have to wait for later to tell her.
anyways, back to school. We both waved by as she went to her locker, and I did the same. Before I made my way to my locker I slammed into someone.
"Sorry! I'm so clumsy!" I heard a fimiliar voice say.
I quickly looked up, guess who I saw, Shawn.
"Shawn?!?" I almost yelled.
"Rebeca!?" He said in shock back.
"W-what are you doing here?" I asked while we both stood up.
"School, duh!" He said giggling.
"And I pressume your here for the same reason?" He asked. Well he was right.
"Yeah." I said still in shock. I bumped into this boy every where I went, to work, to school, where next?!
"Guess I'll see you in class." Shawn said and smiled. He got up, and went to his locker.
How could I never noticed Shawn before? I mean, I think I'd notice him eventually. Shawn was in a different home room than me, which explained things. Although we didn't have the same homeroom, we still had a lot, and I mean a lot, of classes together. Great.
Our first class was French. French was just our teacher, Mrs. James, talking
the whole time about French culture. She wouldn't really care if you were paying attention or not, so that was my class to relax.
I sat down in a free desk and put my earbuds in. Right before I could play any music, Shawn sat beside me.
Shawn was writing something down, he was very focused on the pen and paper.
"Whatcha writing?" I asked peeking over at his paper.
"Nothing." He said and hid his paper.
"Now your keeping secrets, eh?" I asked.
"Maybe." He said smiling.
"Tell me!" I said and pushed him, laughing of course.
"Do you really want to know?" He asked,
"Duh! Why do you think Im asking if I didn't want to know." I chuckled.
"Come to my house tonight then." He said.
"Why?" I said and smiled.
"I don't know, maybe to find out what I'm writing? And to make hot cocoa." He said and laughed.
"Deal." I said and smiled.
He looked at me and just stared.
"What? Why are you staring?" I laughed.
He just smiled a bit and looked down.
-after school-
"Hey mom can I go over to Shawns at 9:00?" I asked once I got in the door.
"Sure." She said and smiled a bit.
"Haha what's got you all smiley?" I asked, I mean my mom was always smiling, but she had a big happy grin today.
"So when are you and Shawn going to make it official?" She asked and giggled.
"Ew mom! Just because we're friends doesn't mean we like eachother." I said while unpacking my bag.
I went to my room and started getting ready to see Shawn. I did my makeup, got in some clean clothes, and ate dinner. I looked at the time, the green bright letters shawn 8:30 at me.
"I should probably head over to Shawns, I'll be home later!" I said to my mom then shut the door.
Shawns house wasn't too far away from mine, so I didn't have to walk much.
"Hey Shawn!" I said once I made it to
his house. He was sitting on his porch, jotting something down.
"Hey!" He said standing up.
"So you gonna tell me what you were writing?" I said smiling. He handed me a piece of paper. It had all kinds of phrases on it, like a song.
"Is this a song?" I asked.
He nodded and smiled.
"A song for you." He said.
