The Story Of Alex

Chapter 1:

This story is for you, Alex. The boy who flirts with me but can't make up his mind on who he like. Last time I checked, liked someone else. But now I'm so confused.

Last year we were in seventh grade and I had I think only one class with him. But we were both in the Shrek play so I got to know Alex pretty well. Alex was the main character, Shrek, and I was just another background girl. It was my first play and his fifth or something like that.

During practice one night, I was sitting on the steps alone. Alex was talking to some other girls so I just walked away. I had spent most of my practices on those steps and it wasn't that bad.

Until the night he joined me on the step. I was crying over something and Alex walked up to me to ask if I was okay. I was super shy so I just nodded and looked back at my feet.

But he didn't give up or walk away. Instead, he kept asking questions and trying to make me laugh. I guess I could say Alex was cool. So far all I knew about him was is name and that he had the main roll.

Two hours later I walked out of practice laughing at him for something odd. I don't quite remember what I was laughing at but he made my bad day, good again.
