It was as if my prayers were answered, in the distance I saw the school bus.

We get into the bus and there are only two seats left next to each other. Most of the bus trip we sat in silence and I drew in my journal, until he started talking to me.

"Hey, I'm Ryan."

I look at him in amazement. Holy schnitzel he's actually f*cking talking to me!!! After my weird staring session at the bus stop. Breathe. Don't mess this up now.

"Hi, umm... I'm Willow"

"I see you stole a flower from my house" he said with a grin.

I knew it was a bad idea, I should have just walked passed without picking a flower.

"I'm sorry, I didn't kno-"

"Its chilled, it looks pretty in your hair" he interrupts me.

He looks at my journal, smirking. I drew the girl in front of me. Why is he look at it like that? Does he think it looks ugly or something? Before he could judge my drawing any further, I closed my journal.

He then looks up at me and says, "That's beautiful! I could never draw like that, I use to draw anime characters when I was way younger, but this... this is amazing"

"Nah, it's nothing. Its just a small doodle"

"You taking art classes?"

"Yeah.." I say looking at my open backpack with the paintbrushes sticking out.

"Can I see some of your other drawings?" 

Wow hold up boy, this is my person drawing book and where I write down all my thoughts and feelings and sometimes poems! Basically making this journal an autobiography of my life. We only just met, you can't know my story just yet. He's really nosy which is annoying me, or maybe it's the fact that I'm not use to having a really cute guy interested in getting to know me.

"Umm...see...it's kinda really personal and I'd prefer you not to read it it."

Just as I said that, the bus stops and we get off.

"Well nice meeting you, Bryan"

"It's Ryan and see you around." he said with a smile.

I could hear him giggle as we go in opposite direction. How couldn't I remember a simple easy name like Ryan! I would have understood if it was a hard name like Giovanni but Ryan, seriously. Sometimes I amaze myself how stupid I can be.
