Omfg he is so annoying!!!! Serves me right for idolizing his stupid ass to the point of no return... Oh yeah you don't know who he is. Well, let me enlighten you.

Give or take a month ago, I participated in a small one day conference about some program that I had no idea about until that day. However I thought I'll participate because I have nothing better to do. I mean don't get me wrong; I have friends but school was about to finish and I really wanted something different to do with my summer. And this program that allowed us to travel, visit different places for free and payed us for organising events for teens seemed amazing. Why? The activities were so fun and the people were so cool and embracing. Can anyone say best job ever?

The first day we were divided into groups to work and put together some activities as well as put them into action. My group however had only two people: me and Blake. I was hoping Blake would not be in my group....Why? Because he is just so cute that it's distracting and pretty much everyone has a crush on him, including yours truly.

"Hi, I'm Blake! You're Annalisa right?" He said with a cute smile. I didn't even see him get here. Wait did he know my name?

"Hey Blake! Yeah but everyone calls me Annie." At this point we were just smiling at each other until someone said "Excuse me!" with the most annoying shrill voice I have ever heard. Or maybe I thought that because she interrupted a moment.

"Am I interrupting something here?" The voice said again. I wanted to say 'yes and get lost' but I decided against it.

I turned to her and with the fakest smile said "No not at all... Hi I'm Annie! And you are?" I kindly said extending an arm.

"His girlfriend! Isn't that right babe?" She cooed to him. My mood just did an 180. He looked at me like he was sorry, but again that might be just my imagination.

"Yes." He said and awkwardly patted her shoulder. I inwardly chuckled while she looked furious. "This is Jennifer."

"Are you in the program too?" I asked her, while chanting 'please no, please no' repeatedly in my head. At the moment, I had totally forgoten that Blake was dating Jennifer even though I have been at the same school as them for about 3 years. Way to go Annie. Now say bye bye to Blake and stop daydreaming because he is taken.

"No I am not! But that doesn't mean my boyfriend isn't off limits." She bit back. Bitch!

"Jenn! What did we talk about?" He let out a puff of breath. Clearly this was a common occurrence.

"I'm not gonna stand here and watch her shamelessly flirt with you!" She screeched.

"She isn't! " He calmly replied.

"Whatever! " And with that she left.

"I'm sorry for her." He frowned while rubbing the back of his neck.

"It's okay." I smiled back reassuringly.

"See you tomorrow!"

"Yeah see ya" And with that he left to go after her. Tomorrow we would leave for our first stop and officially start the project.

Two months working with him... two freaking months, traveling and spending most of my time with him. Oh God!

I got up early in the morning, my bags already prepared the previous night. Mom drove me to the bus station and gave me a long, bone-crushing hug. We're a bunch of huggers in my family and I really loved how comforting this was for me now.

"Be safe and call me as often as you can, okay?"

"Yes I will. Love you mom!"

"Love you too kiddo!" She replied. "Now go before the bus leaves."
