I can't believe that I'm doing exactly as Ella told me to, but like she said. At some point, if you really want to get to know the guy you have to do something you usually don't do to get his attention.
"Um. .. What are you doing?" Ethan laughs as he grins at me.
"Me? Uhm ... um ... eh ... no-othing!" I smile and a nervous laugh comes out of me.
"Alright. Oh, hey you. My friends and Ella are going to the cafe to study later. Do you want to join us?" Ethan stares at me with his chocolate brown eyes.
"Uhm. Sure. Wait. I just need to ask, uh something. Was it E-Ella, who asked me to come?" my smile goes away.
"No, not really. I mean, yes she asked me to ask you, but I would like to hang out with you. You are a cool dude!" Ethan speaks, then he looks away.
Really? Ethan thinks I'm a cool dude. Doesn't dude means friend?
"Uh. That was unexpected. Um ... thanks." I nervously start curling my hair again.
"So, will you come?" Ethan still doesn't look at me.
I should probably ask if he has a girlfriend ...
"Uh, yeah. Um ... Your girlfriend will be there right?" I wink towards him.
"How did you know?" Ethan gasps, then he finally looks back at me while his grin grows bigger.
Damn it. I knew it. Of course, such a cute guy as Ethan has a girlfriend. What did I think about? Anna and Ethan will never happen.
I sigh a bit too loudly.
"Hey, you! Don't look so sad. I'm just kidding. Oh, and by the way. Why are you sad because I joked that I had a girlfriend?" Ethan asks while he stares suspiciously at me.
"What? Uh ... ha-ha. Um, I'm not sad, I promise and if I would be sad it would be because ... uh ... I just thought, uh you know. If your girlfriend would be there, then I might come in the way since I would hang out with you two as well. Hey you, know what? I think we should continue the math stuff thing. Uh. Yeah ... "
I should probably stop talking.
"Right, or maybe, just maybe, you have a little crush on me?" Ethan gives me a judging look, which makes my whole face become red and that's why I call it, my tomato red blush.
Before I've a chance to answer his question, Mr. Gory interrupts.
Good grief! I'm lucky that Mr. Gory interrupted.
"Miss Anna and Mr. Ethan, would you two please like to share your conversation that seems to be more important than my math class?" Mr. Gory asks and put on his black square formed glass.
"I take this," Ethan whispers in my ear.
"Excuse me Mr. Gory for disturbing your class, but I find this girl very attractive. So I'm sorry because I got my feelings come in the way of your fantastic math lesson!" Ethan speaks with a British accent.
At that moment I don't know what the most surprising was. The words Ethan said about me being attractive or the way he spoke with a British accent. Both things made me giggle uncontrollably. Like a little girl who watched Dora The Explorer and laughed at every "fun" scene.
Mr. Gory stares at Ethan then back to me then at Ethan then back to me.
"Don't let this happen ever again in my class alright Mr. Ethan and Miss. Anna!" Mr. Gory speaks.
"I just need to say something," Ella speaks while she put her hand up.
"Yeah, Miss. Ella?" Mr. Gory speaks.
"Class! Don't you agree that they would be the cutest couple in school, Anna and Ethan?" Ella smiles towards us.
"Miss. Ella. Last chance. Next time you ever speak in my class you are out!" Mr. Gory raises his voice.
"Wow. Thank you, Ethan." I whisper into Ethan's ear.
"You're welcome. Teacher's love teen gossip, especially teen love gossips as much as teens do." Ethan whispers back.
I just need to ask Ethan one thing. Does he like me for real or was this just a way to avoid problems with Mr. Gory?
