I sensed someone standing behind me, as usual. I smiled to myself. This was becoming a habit, even if he didn’t know it yet. From his surprised look as I walked towards him, confidently, he clearly didn’t.
I sighed inwardly. This was it. I had aced my test and now, I didn’t have any more excuses to spend more time with him. He grinned at me and I knew, he knew about my test. Definitely no hope of him still being my tutor.
“You look pretty happy today.”
If it was possible, his smile grew even wider. “I am. It’s a pretty great day...” he trails off.
I’m going to miss his smile. If only I had the courage to ask him out! But after what happened the last time, with Debra, I’d rather not.
I shut my eyes slowly and opened them, to look into his dark brown eyes for the last time.
“Wanna go out?”
I stare into his eyes, for what seems like forever. I didn’t hear him right did I?
“Sure.” I whisper, still not quite sure if all of this was still happening. I can’t stop the smile that stretches across my face, which is slowly matching his. I notice him flinch suddenly, as if something just occurred to him. My smile slowly begins to drop as I feel like he thinks he might have made a mistake.
“I mean like on...like on a date type thing?”
My cheeks begin to hurt as I break into a smile again.
“Yeah, I got that.”
Whew, playing it smooth. He reaches for my hand and as we walk down the hallway, I feel like Maths just became even easier.
1 boy + 1 girl = Love.
Theory proven.
