It was a calm day at school. Gus was eating lunch until he got startled.
"Hey Gus!" said a young girl loudly.
"Hey Theresa" he said with his usually smile.
"You called me by my real name" she said with shock.
"Yeah is that weird?" he asked, starching the back of his head.
"No not at all." she responded he cheeks turning red. Spinelli saw all of this, along with her boyfriend TJ. They both smirked. Once lunch was over, the both of them walked over to Gus.
"So what was that all about?" Asked TJ
"What do you mean?" Said Gus with confusion. Spinelli rolled her eyes, and pointed to Theresa walking down the hall way.
"Oh her" said Gus
"Yeah HER" said Spinelli and TJ. They both laughed at their unison.
"She likes you." said Spin. Gus's cheeks turned a light pink.
"No where're just friends"
"Then explain why she got all red when you called her by her real name?" Said TJ with a certain tone.
"Because people in our old school never bothered to learn her real name they called her Cornchip girl" Gus said with confidence.
"Yeah right" responded Spinelli and she rolled her eyes.
"Teej Lets get outta here"
"Sure" The couple walked to class. Once School was over, Cornchip girl ran up to Gus.
"HEY GUS" shouted Theresa. Gus turned around and smile, he waved at her.
"Hey wanna hang?" She asked with a big smile, that Gus couldn't say no to.
"Sure why not"
"Cool how about the park?"
'"Sounds good to me" said Gus. As they walked to the park, Theresa stopped. She looked over to Gus and had butterflies on her stomach. Her face turned crimson red.
"Are you ok"
"ye-yes she said" She sped walked ahead. Gus ran up after her.
"What's wrong?" asked Gus worriedly
"Its nothing really" her face was as red as an apple. Gus then understood everything Spinelli and TJ said.
"Do you like me?" asked Gus. Her face was even more red then before.
"Yes..." her voice trailed off. Gus smiled and hugged her. She hugged him back, even though the height difference was real. Theresa stood on her tippy-toes and kisses Gus. He kissed back.
