“Hey, what’s up?” I say with the sweetest smile.
“Oh, Nothing! I just wondered what your plans for after school are?” As a smile grows on his face.
“Well school is done in like two minutes and I don’t think I have anything going on. I’m riding the bus home are you?” The bell rings as I say.
“Yeah I am! Cool! It will be just like old times!”
“Is that all you had to ask me? I’m hoping that it isn’t,” a flirtatious smile appears on my face.
“No, that is not all; we better not miss the bus or we’ll be walking home,” he says and starts running away, and over his shoulder he yells. “Race ya!”
“You can run, I’ll walk there so I don't get in trouble and I'll win,” Kinda weird and little kiddish I say yelling as I walk to the bus. While waiting for him on the stairs of the bus, he walks up the stairs next to me "I won!"
“Ok, you win! I lost, you were right.”
“Told ya!" I say and start walking to the back of the bus. I pick out seat on the right side, one seat from the back, sit down and scoot in so he can sit next to me.
We are sitting talking about our old memories that we shared on the bus rides home. I am so hoping that he will ask me, or tell me what ever it was he wanted to. It could be the question I was waiting for or it could be “Guess what, What, Chicken butt”, I would be so totally disappointed.
We are about twenty minutes into the bus ride and he gets this happy look on his face and he asks, “Would you like to go four-wheeling with me?”
“Sure, and was that the whole reason you are nervous?”
“Yeah, you noticed that.”
“Yep!”
“So how should we do this? Go your house to do whatever for a little bit then ride over to my house? Does that work?” he asked
“Yeah ok, that would be cool”
Then we get to my stop I stand up and grab my bag. We both say goodbye and I walk off the bus, then I turn around and wave back to him.
Travis opens the window from inside the bus and says, “Hey, I’ll see you soon,” with a huge smile and waves.
“Yes, see you soon, bye!” I say in response and wave. I turn around and start the long walk down my driveway.
