-at school-
i walk in the front door of the school and go up to my locker on the second floor. when i've gotten all of my stuff from my locker i go into my home room class. after 3 and a half long hours, it's finally lunch and i get to see james. we have this big group of people
that hangs out with each other at lunch but it kind of separates into different groups. as brooklyn and i are putting our science textbooks in our lockers, declan, ian, and james walk up behind me. "hey guys!" i say as i turn around and get up from my locker. after about 10 minutes we decide to play truth or dare. james volunteers to start off and we start playing. "hey soil truth or dare?" he asks me "ummmm truth" i say in response. "who do you like?" he asked me. 'ah fuck! what do i say!! omg why did he have to ask this question?!' i think to myself. "uhhh no one!" i tell him in a very unconvincing way. "i don't believe you" he then tells me. "it's true she doesn't!" brooklyn says to help me in this very awkward situation. "okay then...." he says.
-after school-
it is now after school and i get on brooklyn's bus with her so we can have a sleepover at her house that we've been planning since monday. when we get of the bus and walk to her house we immediately grab a back of chips out of her pantry and go to her room to talk.
"you have to tell him you like him soleil!" she tells me. "i know i know, i just don't know how! it's so hard" "how about i tell him for you?" she suggests "really!?" i ask her excited "yeah i'll just tell him monday at lunch and tell him not to tell you i told him so it doesn't seem so planned out." she said "okay great!" i said to her.
-monday at school-
i get up in the morning and do the same routine i do every single day and go to school. after three hours it's now lunch and as i'm putting my stuff in my locker, brooklyn goes and privately talks to james. i know exactly what she's saying. i try to look fine af just invade he looks over and i just talk to ian and declan until they get back. after they're done talking they finally get back and act like nothing happened so people don't get suspicious.
-tuesday-
*BEEB!BEEB!BEEB!BEEB!* i wake up for another day of me doing my same old morning routine, going to school, spending another boring three hours waiting for lunch and when lunch comes, jorja, brooklyn, reija and i jam out to beyonce and james, ian, declan, brooklyn and i talk. right after the bell rings telling us we have five minutes to get to our next class, james pulls me aside and tells me; "soleil, i've been meaning to do this for a long time i just didn't know how or when to do it and then there was what brooklyn said yesterday and even if that not true i'm still gonna ask you so here it goes; will you be my girlfriend?"
