Lauryn awoke the next morning, it was Friday, and it was only half a school day today, so Lauryn didn't really feel like going, and with that, she dragged herself out of bed, with the thought of seeing James today. She slipped out of her polar bear onesie, which she had worn again, because for one; it was her favorite animal, and two; it was comfy. But continued to get on with her day. When Lauryn got her onesie off, she felt the cold, morning air against her skin, she got goosebumps down her arms and legs. Lauryn quickly grabbed a plain white t-shirt and put it on, along with some jeans.

Lauryn wandered out into the kitchen to eat breakfast, and when she walked in, she saw her little sister, whom she disliked.

 "Good morning, Lauryn." The little sister said, all snobby.

Lauryn just ignored her, like she usually did.

Lauryn is a quite simple girl. Her favorite breakfast food was Fruit Loops, Lauryn loved them. She grabbed the box of Fruit loops from the cupboard, and the milk from the fridge. She then poured them both in a bowl, and put the milk away, left the cereal on the counter, and dragged herself back to her room. Lauryn finished her cereal, and went and put her bowl by the sink. Lauryn packed her bag for school, which was filled with; her binder, pencil case, and the anonymous note, given to her by a secret admirer.

The time struck 7:30 and Lauryn had to leave. Lauryn got to school a half an hour later, and she had a few minutes to spare, so she decided to go find James.

Lauryn found James sitting in a seat next to a window in the cafeteria, he approached James

"Hey James." Lauryn said flirtatiously.

"Oh, Hello Lauryn, how are you today?" James asked

"I'm good." Lauryn said while sitting down next to James.

Lauryn stopped herself to think for a minute. She thought that maybe James was the one who wrote the note, but it would be mean to assume such a thing, even though, it did seem like the kind of the=ing James would do.

The bell rang, and Lauryn snapped out of her little dream world. She saw James leave out the doors of the cafeteria. She got up and went to class.

When Lauryn got to class, her teacher; Mr. Heart, called Lauryn over to his desk. She put her stuff down and walked over.

"I'm worried about your grades Lauryn." Mr. Heart explained.

Mr. Heart had mentioned Lauryn's grades, and said maybe the reason her grades were slipping is because he always looks at her and she is in a world of her own. Lauryn then adjourned to her seat, and plopped down.

Laryn slipped into another one of her dream worlds again, and this time she was thinking about her and James, sitting on the hood if his Shelby GT500, watching the sunset over the horizon, and just before the sun reached full down, James leaned over and kissed her, and Lauryn looked over into James sea blue eyes, and saw herself, and thought "were ment to be together." all this time Lauryn had known James, she had always had a soft spot for him, and she would always stumble over her words every time she talked to him.

Lauryn finally tuned into the real world, and there was still 20 minutes left in class, and she thought about her daydream. "were we ment to be together?" she asked herself. She had always thought of how beautiful his eyes were, and Lauryn had always wished to every morning wake up and see his cute face and his beautiful eyes, Lauryn would kill to be with him.

The bell rang and it was time for the Friday 30 minute break, and Lauryn was supposed to meet Jane at her locker at break, so lauryn went to her locker, put her stuff away, and went to go meet Jane at her locker.


Lauryn looked over on her way to meet Jane, and saw her sitting in the cafeteria, next to James. Lauryn walked up to the two.

"Hey, what are you two doing, hanging out with each other?" Lauryn asked.

"What? Two friends cant hang out?" Jane appointed.

Lauryn's face turned red, Jane knew that Lauryn had the worlds biggest crush on James. Lauryn sat next to James, as she usually does, Jane was sitting across the table looking at Lauryn. Lauryn stared at Jane with anger in her eyes, then she looked over at James and her eyes came across his, and she just stared at his eyes for a good minute, until he looked over at her from his homework that he was doing, then she quickly looked away.

"Were you staring at me?" James asked.

"N-no." Lauryn stuttered.

James smiled and looked back down at his work. Lauryn again found herself staring at James. Jane just looked at Lauryn.

"Lauryn, can I talk to you for a minute over there?" Jane said forcefully.

"Sure." Lauryn replied.

They walked over to the recreation area of the cafeteria.

"So, why do you keep staring at James?" Jane asked

Lauryn looked over her shoulder back at James.

"Well, when I was in class today, I thought about me and James sitting on the hood of his car... Kissing...but then I thought about us looking into each others eyes, and since then, I couldn't stop thinking of him and his beautiful eyes."

Jane's eyes widened, and she stared into Lauryn's, then they walked back to the table James was sitting at.

"Were back." Lauryn said quietly to James.

James just continued to smile, and look down at his work. Lauryn wandered off into her dream world, and Jane just played on her phone.

The bell rang for the end of the 30 minute break, and Lauryn headed back to class, James had a spare, so he didn't follow. Lauryn got to her English class, which was her favorite class. Lauryn took her binder out and her pencil case. The class was learning about the history of medieval plays, and playwrights.

When the bell rang, Lauryn picked up her stuff and headed to her locker, and when she got there she opened it and dropped her stuff in, cause frankly she didn't give a shit where anything went in her locker. and when she looked up, she found another note, and this is what it said


In the night sky filed with stars,

you're the one that shines the brightest.

I love you for lighting up the darkest moments of my life.

It is really puzzling how you were able to fit inside my heart.

Trust me that there is no space left for another girl.

I love you so much.

Love- Anonymous.

Lauryn cried tears of sadness, because  she knew the note was from James, and she had just wished he would tell her he loved her in person. She loved the notes, but she wanted nothing more, than to hear the words "I love you." come from his mouth.

Lauryn put the note in her pocket and closed her locker, and headed home. On her way home, she kept uttering the words "I love you, James." under her breath, and just wished he would respond, but without his response, she is just talking to herself.

Lauryn walked into the front door of her house, and saw her dad, mom, and sister sitting in the family room. It was a Friday so her parents didn't work. Her family was watching Wheel of Fortune on the Television. Lauryn said "Hi." and walked past, through the kitchen and into her room. Lauryn set her backpack down and sat on her bed, Lauryn waited for lunch to be made by her mom. She turned on her Xbox and sat back down on her bed. She had no friends on Xbox at the time, so she just put on Netflix

After lunch, Lauryn got a call from Jane, and she had asked if she could come over. Lauryn said "Yes." and Jane hung up the phone and Lauryn waited patiently for Jane to get there, but there was no sign of her, and after half an hour, she decided to call Jane back on her house phone. it ring once, twice, three times, four times, voice mail. Lauryn called again and again, but still no answer.

Hours and hours later, Lauryn tried calling again, but still no answer, so Lauryn decided to just go to bed and wait 'til morning to see her, and confront her about it.
