(No singing and dancing, maybe just a little tho)
You sigh deeply as you saw you crush whom name was seaweed it's his girlfriend penny. You continued to stare like a creep but didn't notice until Penny walked up to you." Excuse me, but why are you staring at me?" She asked as she stopped in front of you and looked down at you. You quickly look up at her but then look down at your pink dress that had flowers on it." I'm not." You quickly said before getting up and grabbing your stuff and walking out the lunch room.You went into the library and went into your favorite section, the only section you can be in. Since you were black in a white school it was kinda hard but you managed and made friends with a couple of crackers and seaweed liked to call them. You sat at a table and opened the big book and started to read it. You were so into your book you didn't realize people sit at the table around you.
When the bell rang you closed the book and looked up feeling the eyes on you. You saw Tracy, Link, Penny, and Seaweed around you. Seaweed sat next to you, Penny at the head of the table, and Tracy and Link across from you. Once you da them you jumped and walked away to your class. Once you got to your class you sat in the back as usual.
They all soon came into the classroom which was only about 3 crackers and the rest were black people. You once again started to stare at seaweed who sat next to the person next to you. He looked back at you and smiled showing off his white pearly teeth. You quickly smiled back before putting your head down and waited for your teachers to come in." Hey, your name is Y/N. Right?" You heard someone asked, you look up and saw seaweed sitting next to you on a chair he pulled up." Y- yeah." You stutter nervously while writing down something from the textbook into your notebook." Sorry about Penny." He said as he glanced down at your paper but he caught a glimpse of something under it.
He reached over and pulled it out. When he he looked over the paper he looked wide eyed then looked at you, who looked scared." Don't look at that." You snapped and snatched the paper away from him and threw it in your bag." You like me?" He whispered shocked as he moved closer to you and got in your face." N-no, I was holding it for my friend." You lied while avoiding eye contact.
"I know you're lying. I can always tell when someone is lying." He said as he got closer. He was all in your face you can feel his breathe coming from his damn nose." Back up please." You said as you moved a little bit careful not to fall out of the chair." Oh sorry." He said and leaned back in his chair as he continued to stare at you." So do you like me or not?" He asked folding his arms." Yes I do. Okay, but you're dating Penny." You signed while putting your head in your hands." It's alright. Don't worry about that." He says and went back to his seat. You looked at him, he turned around with a smile giving you and wink making you drop your head again.
You were in class for about 20 minutes and you and seaweed were passing notes to each other. Thankfully you didn't get caught. You weren't talking about nothing, only about each others life and stuff. The teacher cleared his throat when he saw seaweed keep turning around. Seaweed gave him a funny smile and waved at him and sat back in his chair with a smirk on his face. He quickly turned around and threw a noted on your desk.
Meet me in the library after class I want to tell you something important
You quickly smile before scrambling on the other side of the paper.
Sure I'll be there :)
You threw it back at him, making it hit the back of his head so you let out a stifle laugh as the teacher looked at you. He turned around and winked at you before shoving the note into his pocket and paying attention to the rest of the lesson.
~Once you got to the library you looked around before you walked to the back were you saw seaweed. He was looking though this book and didn't even realize you stepped in front of him." Hey." You mumbled shyly as you shift your weight from one foot to another." Oh hey. I didn't even hear you come." He smiled and turned to put the book away." So what did you want to meet me about?" You asked and looked around the library, through the shelves of course." I broke up with Penny." He stated as he shoved his hand in his back pockets.
"Oh why?" You asked sad for him, since you knew he really liked her." I don't know. But I feel like I'm in love with someone else." He stated while staring at you. You felt a little hurt inside, he knew that you liked him and he liked you back but he wanted to play a joke." Who is it?" You asked trying to sound happy." You." He said and kissed you." They always say the blacker the berry the sweeter the juice." He said once he pulled away. You looked at him shocked as he walked away. You stared after him, surprised that he actually liked you back. Before he walked out the library he turned around and gave you a wink making you drop you head to the floor and bite your lip. You squealed quietly and walked out to go home.

This took place in the 1960s so it was a very very racist time. Segregation ended in 1964 and this took place in 1962, so don't you dare call me racist cuz I'm just going by what happened during this time. And seaweed was always calling the white people cracker before he started to date Penny and that's what they did then. White people=cracker. Black people= colored.
And sorry it was so short.
