After Social Studies, I ran up to Lesley. "Hey, Lesley.", I said. "You can call me Lezy, if you want.", she told me. "'Kay. Hey, Lezy! Wanna sit with us again?" Uh, sure...yeah!" Her faced turned red as she answered my question. I wonder why. At lunch, it was just a normal lunch, until Lezy told me something I never thought I would've heard from her:

I was eating, and out of the blue, Lesley says she needs to talk to me. I tell her after I finish my burger, we can go in front of the girl's bathroom to talk. After I finish my lunch, I tell Lesley to follow me to the girl's bathroom so we can talk. "Ok, Lezy. What's up?" "Um, I kinda sorta...uh...well, I like Milo." When those words came out of her mouth, I was so shocked. "Wait, back up. Milo? As in, my boyfriend?" "Um...kinda...sorta...yeah, your boyfriend.", she replied. I was so confused. Why didn't she tell me before? Does Milo know about this? All types of crazy, random questions raced through my brain as I processed what Lesley said. As I was listening, I didn't realize I was turning red in the face. "Uh-oh. See, I knew I shouldn't have told you. You're getting mad at me!" I felt so bad. "NO! I'm so happy that you felt comfortable enough to tell me. I just have one question. Does Milo know?" I was hoping not, so we could just put this all behind us. Unfortunately, not all hopes and dreams come true. "I told him yesterday. I couldn't hold it in anymore. I've had the crush on him since 1st grade! Did he not tell you? I should've told him to tell you, I'm sorry." "Please, don't be! I'm just so happy you opened up to me like that! Thanks, Lezy. " That was pretty much the highlight of my day.
