Big eyes

Chapter 4

It's been a couple of weeks since I started going to school. September passed super quickly that I didn't even realize it. I made new friends and my relationship with former classmates became worse since we didn't keep in touch with each other that much, except Angela. Actually, we're meeting today. She wanted to go to the cinema, so Sunday was a perfect day for a movie.

I put on black torn jeans, plain white shirt, and my favorite denim jacket. I always add colour detail, so this time, I used a big yellow necklace. My outfit can't be completed without my old white sneakers that look more like gray, but I just can't throw them away. I put my hair into a messy bun and I am ready to go.

When I came to Angela's house I saw two boys there. Both of them I don't know. Ok, they are probably her cousins or some other relatives. As I reached her house I waved to say hello.

"Hey Alex! What's up?" she smiled.

"Hi... Everyone." I said confused.

"Oh, sorry. You don't know each other. So, Alexa, this is Adam and Collin. Boys, this is Alexa." she befriended us.

"Nice to meet you." they said.

"Nice to meet you too."

They looked really friendly and nice. Collin is really tall and thin. He has blue eyes and blonde hair. His skin is really pale that you can almost see his veins.

Adam is also tall and fit. He has dark brown hair, blue eyes, and tan skin. He has so good fashion taste. He's wearing blue jeans and black V-neck shirt with Adidas trainers and really cool Adidas jacket.

After the movie, we went to a restaurant and ordered some food there. We've talked for hours about our holiday, new school friends... Everything. I had such a good time. After that, we went home. I wish I could spend much more time with friends, it was an absolutely amazing day!

Back to reality. Nine hours later I heard my dad's voice.

"Wake up sleepyhead. You have to go to school." he said with a wide smile on his face.

"What?" I said with my half-closed eyes. "Oh no. Is it Monday again?"

I realized that it really is Monday and I was lying in my bed thinking how did I get there?

"Hahaha... Unfortunately yes." he laughed.

"Did mom make pancakes?"

"Of course she did! Nobody from our family can go to work or school without a sweet homemade breakfast, especially those that your mother makes." he said excitedly.

"That's true. I'll be in the kitchen in two minutes."

I dressed up, ate the breakfast and went to school. The whole day was pretty boring. I couldn't wait to go back home. After lunch, I had my last lesson. A few of my classmates and I were walking around and exploring all rooms in our school when suddenly I slipped on the wet floor. All my papers and notebooks fell down and I was just sitting there and laughing out loud because it was so embarrassing so it became funny even to me- the victim of the slippery floor.

After five amusing minutes of sitting on the floor with my books, I saw a teacher that was looking at us and laughing as well. It was Mrs Murphy actually. She looked very good today. Her hair was in a low ponytail and her outfit was really sophisticated, as always. Nude heels with pencil skirt went perfectly with pastel pink top and silver necklace.

"Are you okay?" she asked grinning.

"I guess, I am."

"Stand up." she offered me her hand. "I just can't help laughing, it was so cute."

Then she smiled again and gave me a hug which really surprised me. Of course in a positive way. My eyes widen and I was jus speechless. It was really indescribable feeling. Even her perfume is perfect. It's sweet but in the same time fresh smell of flowers. The hug was so tight and close that I felt there's something between me and her.

The magical moment disappeared and I didn't even realize she had left the room. Girls looked at me confused and asked me if I am okay, I said I am and then just went back to my classroom and after that home.

On my way to home Angela called me.

"Do you wanna go out today?" she asked.

"Sorry sweetie, I can't because of homework that is due to tomorrow."

After a couple of minutes of our conversation she brought up another subject.

"So..." she said with excitement in her voice.

"So?" I asked not understanding what did she mean.

"What do you think about Adam?"

"He's a nice guy." I replied shortly.

"Nice?! Oh my gosh, haven't you noticed how he was constantly smiling and looking at you?"

"Hm, he was smiling because he has emotions I guess."

"Are you insane?" she burst into a loud laugh. "It was so obvious that he likes you sooo much. Do you at least have his number?"

"Yes, I have." I nodded trying not to look confused since I really didn't know why was Angela behaving like a total drama queen.

"You should definitely call him. No, you have to! Right now."

"No, that's not a good idea." I felt a bit unsecured.

"Come on! You like him too, right?"

"Hmm, yes, o-of course I do." I wasn't sure if I was saying what I wanted to say.

"Good, so call him and go on a date, you will look super cute together."

"Ok, I will. Bye!"

"See you next Saturday."

After arriving home I was constantly thinking about my conversation with Angela. That question... If I like Adam made me confused so much.

I put on pajamas and went to bed. That question didn't allow me to fall asleep nor rest for a while. I felt like there was somebody else that I had made feelings to. But who? ...

Oh no, that can't be possible. I think that I... I don't even want to say it. I started to cry. I realized that *sniff* the person I fell in love with is...
