The Pretty Boy's Crush

Art Class

Jason usually sits right next to the teacher. But, today he was asking if he could have someone sit next to him. Of course, after asking a couple times our teacher breaks and says he can choose one person.

"I choose Paige to sit with me for the rest of the year." He says making me look up from my notan.

"Alright, Paige. Go and sit next to Jason I guess. Unless you don't want to." Mr. Artistic says as I blush a light red. I don't want to embarrass Jason, so I groan silently as move all my stuff next to Jason's stuff. Jason looks to me and smirks as if to say you are stuck here.

"Hey, Paige." He says making me look down and continue to do my project.

The teacher lets all of us continue to talk like usual as we do our work.

"What do you want Jason?" I ask him and then realize that came out a little sharp. He looks at me a little hurt, and then he glances away from me.

"I just wanted you to sit next to me. I'm sick of sitting alone, and I knew you were the only one that was too nice to say no." Jason says as if he didn't want to choose me but did anyway. He only picked me because I wouldn't say no when everyone else would. I think he also chose me because I'm not going to on purposely distract him from what he's doing.

"Really? Maybe I should've said no then." I say annoyed as Jason rolls his eyes, shaking his head slightly. His hair sways with each simple motion.

"You couldn't say no to me." He smirks at my facial expression, that's both brows raised, and my mouth is a little open. For some reason, I have the urge to punch him and then kiss his cute face at the same time. I want to kiss him a little more than I want to hit him. But, I keep both of the ideas out of my head.

"Oh, yes I could," I say as Jason punches me lightly. Not enough to hurt, of course, just barely to let me know that he is there and he can touch me. I blush darkly as I continue to look down.

"Jason, do you even like Makenna Leverage?" I ask as he looks to me and then his own project as he continues to cut with the exact-to knife, going just as slow as usual.

"For now, I guess." I look at him shocked as he told me that, you're supposed to date someone when you like them, not just because you can. Of course, these days it's just for the label if we're all going, to be honest.

"Jason! You don't actually like her?" He shrugs at my simple question as if he doesn't know if he likes her or not.

"Not really, it's just a label and she kind of forced it onto me, it wasn't like my choice. What really happened is she asked me out and I said I wanted to think about it and she started getting upset, she was starting a scene, so I told yes so it wouldn't like I did something to her," Jason explains, letting me know that he wasn't lying when he said he wasn't into anyone. He's not, Makenna forced him to be with her, that's weird.

"Well, hopefully, you two will figure it out, thanks for telling me," I say, knowing that it must've taken a lot out of him to tell me something that he's not telling anyone else.

"Yeah, don't say anything, I don't want Makenna to get mad at me," Jason says, causing me to feel a little bad, he's scared of her because she's so mean.

"I promise, your secret is safe with me," I say, no longer mad at him, glad that we're getting over this together.

"Thanks, I knew I could trust you," he says, making me glance at him and then my paper, blushing lightly. I'm glad that he trusts me.
