"How can you expect me to get over it? When everything literally revolves around you? My going into adulthood phase? Where I thought we be endgame?" -Skylar
"I can never see myself in the future with someone else. I can only see Skylar.. & that's wh...
"Ooo Sky. Mr Popular just said hi to you." Chiqa, a friend of mine nudged as she smiled.
"Nonsense. I think he's just playing around." I shrugged her off. But in reality. I was happy he noticed me. Can you imagine? A guy you just met and got your attention is trying to get your attention as well?
My heart raced when he walked past and said, "See you Sky."
♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
First day of school is rather vexing. So many pretty girls getting all the attention. I can see groups forming.
I hate it. I can never fit in with the popular ones.
But I'm thankful for Chiqa and Natalie.
"Lunch?" Chiqa turned and I nod my head.
"Let's go." We three headed out.
I walked past his class but I guess there were released earlier.
It's fine.
"Hey. Your cutie at 2 o'clock." Chiqa said as she signalled using her eyes.
I followed through and locked eyes with him again. He smiled. A genuine smile if you asked. So I forced a smile back before turning back to order my food.
"What are you having?" Nat asked and I sighed.
"It all looks good." I said.
"Let's have chicken dumplings today?" Chiqa suggested and I nod my head.
I pulled them into the queue.
"What are you having Mike?" I heard a voice behind us.
"I'll have whatever she's having." I heard a familiar voice and I turned immediately. I got a shock when it's him right behind me.
I could hear him smile through his voice as he whispered, "Surprise."
"Erm you guy want any drinks?? I'll go get drinks." I excused myself and Chiqa smiled as she noticed my restless behaviour.
"Peach tea." Natalie replied.
I quickly exit the queue and ran over to the drink stalls.
"Sorry. We came first." A few girls from his class ran infront of me.
I just smiled and gesture them to go ahead.
I don't want to get in trouble. Not on the first day.
When I walked back, I saw him walking towards the place they were seated at.
I quickly went over to find Chiqa and Natalie. Lunchtime is only half an hour. Crazy, I know right?
As the bell rang, the students quickly dispersed off to their class. We too head back and I dreaded climbing the stairs.
"Ugh, two floors feels like twenty after lunch." I whined.
"Think positive thoughts like Mr Crush." Chiqa squeled and Natalie pushed her head lightly.
"You and your crush." She laughed.
"Well. Then why is he waiting outside his class for her?" Chiqa asked as she nod towards Mike.

"Get in Mike." His class teacher gave him a little push as he turned back once more and winked.
Omg. He needs to stop doing that.
"I'm sure its just an infatuation. A phase." I told myself and Chiqa and Natalie laughed.
"Here's to hoping girl." Natalie pats my back.
We will be taking Lit this year and I'm so so excited.
I love reading and I absolutely adore Literature class. It's better than counting or cooking or building things.
Another half a day pass by.
Ring~~~
And that indicates end of the first day. We heard howlings come from the next door and I heard his voice standing out among the rest.
"Let's hang out Mike." His friend exclaimed as I see his head popping up at our class window. How tall is this boy?
He was looking and searching for something or someone when his eyes met mine.
"Let's go already!!" I heard a girl's voice and I saw her linking her hands in his arms as they passed by our back door.
"Ugh. Player alert. " Natalie huffed.
"I don't like him." I defended myself.
"Hey.. it's okay to like someone. Who knows he might change for you." Chiqa said in a dreamy voice and we both shook our heads.
"Let's get something to eat before heading home. Kentucky?" I asked and we all agreed.
I mean I seriously don't think this is going anywhere. But who would have known I would get myself into some sort of a short romance chapter of my own. I mean seriously. At the age of 13? Crushes and infatuations. Yes. Love? I don't think that will last. Not at this age where hormones are running wild and everything is fascinating only for awhile.
