Blaire's POV:
It is the next day and all I can think about is Melanie. What is happening to me? Why am I so obsessed with her? Well, she is pretty per-
"Blaire, I suppose you would like to answer that question for us, since you were so kindly paying attention." My thoughts are interrupted by my teacher calling out my name.
I blush because I have no idea what the answer is. "I'm sorry, but I didn't hear the question," I say sheepishly as Mr. Meyer glares at me. He rolls his eyes and asks someone else, to my relief.
The day drags on, and I can hardly keep my eyes open in 4th period. "Mrs. Dyson, why don't you go get a drink and come back when you have learned to keep your eyes open," my teacher suggests.
I stand up, grab the hall pass, and venture outside groggily. I head to my locker and grab my sweater, just to waste time. On my way to the bathroom from my locker, I spot a familiar head of dark, curly hair. As she turns the corner into the bathroom, I get a good look at her face. It is in fact Melanie.
"MEL!" I shout, a little too loudly for a school hallway but, oh well. Her head snaps back and her face brightens when she sees me. I come sprinting up towards her and tackle her in a hug.
"Oh my god, hi!" She responds. She pulls back from the hug but doesn't let go of my shoulders. "I was just heading into the bathroom."
"Me too," I reply. We duck into the bathroom and sit down in the corner, after checking that nobody was there.
We sit there, talking about pointless stuff for a while. "Blaire, are you okay?" She asks, noticing my lack of attention.
"Yeah, I'm just lost in my thoughts." I say, nonchalantly.
"About what?" She questions.
You, my head says. But my mouth says something different. "I don't feel very good." I blush, knowing the actual answer.
"I'm sorry," She states. She reaches towards my hand and intertwined our fingers. My stomach floats, but I force myself to not blush. "Maybe you should go to the nurse," she suggests.
I shake my head. "I think I'll be fine." Then the bell rings and we stand up quickly, realizing we will be in trouble. It isn't until last period, when I finally realize what is wrong with me:
I have a crush on a girl. More specifically, I have a crush on Melanie.

I am back, I'm sorry for the absence. I have a lot going on currently. I will try to update more frequently.
Much love 💘
