Awkward
At, PE I was listening to music just being myself, in the hall way. When the track team, passed by, immediately, I looked for Luis. I saw him, he smiled at me, and I half smile back. Suddenly, he lays his jacket on me, "hold that for me" he says. I just sit there a bit, confused. And shrug my shoulders like "ok..". Putting, on his jacket it's, nice and warm against my skin. A few minutes go by, and the track team, passes me again. I look again for Luis, I see his shoes and... his bare chest. I blink my eyes to make sure I'm not dreaming. "Look away" I command myself, I look at the floor. I can feel my face getting hot. "Keep it" I hear Luis say. I just nod my head "yes" shyly and think, "Luis, please get a shirt on". Going to get a drink of water , I try to clear my head. "That was awkward" I think. And indeed it was. "Get a grip of yourself" I say, as I went to lunch.
Sad News
I didn't say "Hi" to Luis, when he walked up. I just shyly pretend to read my book. "I might move to Colombia" he says, suddenly. I'm shocked, I can't believe it, I couldn't believe it. "When?" I say, trying to keep my voice steady. "In a couple of months" Luis, observes my face. A huge lump forms in my throat and I hid my face, trying to not let the tears fall. But, it's to late, their running down, my face., stinging my eyes. "Are you, ok?" He asks. I force myself, to look at him. A look of pure regret, flashes across his face. Feelings of sadness and guilt wash over me. "Don't cry" he says. "Your going to make me cry to" and honestly, he looked like he was fixing. To cry. "I'm going to go walk" I say, trying to keep my voice steady. Getting, up. I try to clear my head . Telling myself it's gonna be alright.
Searching
"I'm a total idiot!!" I think to myself looking at my reflection. Red eyes look back, at me . "you just had a total meltdown in front of a guy, how embarrassing!!" I scold. Cleaning, up my face. I regain, my emotions, "he must feel so, bad.." I think, guiltily. Going out of, the bathroom, I go back to the lunch room, but he's not there. "Great, he went looking.. For me" I think. Walking the halls, I search for Luis. "Some guy, was looking for you" says a kid, who got kick out of a class room. "Where did he go" I ask anxiously. "That way" says the kid, pointing to the stairs. "Thanks" I say. Fixing to go up, the door suddenly opens, and it's.. Luis.
Comfort
"Awkward..." I think. "Where were you!" He kinda yells. " I was looking all over for you" he says more steadily. " clearing my head" I say innocently. "Don't do that" he says "you scared me" his voice was caring, I only look down, my face burning with shame. As we start walking he ask "why did you start crying". I try not to break down I start, "because, my best friend.. Is also moving away". It's to late again, the tears are back. I try to stop them but I cant. Suddenly, I feel his arms around me, he pulls me in close to him. "Don't cry" he says firmly, but gently. I just hug him, and feel safe in his arms. Regaining my emotions, I gently pull away.
Christmas imagination
Suddenly, we get on to the weird topic of frosty the snow man and Rudolph the red nose reindeer. "Frost's so cute" I say. "How can a snow man, be cute?" He protests. "He just is" i say, with not good comeback, that ends the conversation.
Important
" I had friends, that known me for five years, and they didn't cry when I moved away" he says suddenly. "I've only know you two months.. And Your the only one.. Who's cried for me" "That's because I tend to like people so easily". I say. ( trying to hint that I like him). "I don't like you crying.. But, when you did, it makes me feel important or something". I look at him for a moment. "You are important, more than you think". I say in my head. Suddenly, the bell rings. Giving, him a hug by the stairs. He says "sorry for making you cry". I'm like "it's alright".
