“Don’t look now, but look now!” My best friend, Scarlett, whisper yelled at me.
“What?” I said as I turned around. When I did, I instantly found those blue gray eyes that I was in love with. I blushed and waved at him. He cracked a smile at me that made my heart melt. I looked away before I made a fool of myself.
“I don’t know what you see in him anyway. He doesn’t even talk to you.” She paid for her lunch and we walked to our table. As far as she knows I thought in my head. I have talked to him. We are partners in physics and he will crack a joke from time to time, and sometimes, I think he looks at me when I am not paying attention. But it’s all in my head. Why would he look at me? Brandon is the tall, dark haired, edgy looking, guy that everyone wants. I am that blonde haired, blued eyed, hyper girl that everyone thinks needs to calm down.
“Caverly! You're zoning again!”
“Sorry.” I look at my friend. Normally, I talk everyones’ ears off, or so I am told, but when I think about him, or are near him, I just seem to go quiet.
“Maybe we should start hanging out with him if it means that you will be quiet all the time.” My friend said with a joking look on her face. My friend is the person who likes to remind me of how much I talk, all the time.
“I am sorry.”
“Never mind it now.” After that we got into one of our many random conversations. I was explaining to her why the joke I had said was funny, when she interrupted me.
“Smile!” I did as I was told.
“Breath.” I did that too, with a confused look on my face.
“Okay, you good, but just to be sure.” She through me a mint which a gladly put in my mouth.
“Okay, now run you fingers through your hair and laugh like I just said something funny!!” I ran my fingers through my hair like she said, and laughed. Not even a second later Brandon came up to me and asked,”What’s so funny.”Okay, never doubt Scarlett again I told myself.
“Oh it was nothing.” I said casually, shooting Scarlett a look that, hopefully, said thank you. She just shrugged and started talking to one of his friends, Mike, because they sat down with us. I turned to Brandon with a smile one my face, trying to calm the butterflies I always fell around him.
“So, about that physics project.”
“Oh right that!” I said stupidly. For some reason I though he was going to ask me out.
“You are coming over to my house after school. We are taking my car. I’ll drive you back here when we are done so you can get your car. We good?” He asked/told me.
“Yeah that works for me! I just have to be back by 10, that’s my curfew. But I don’t think it will take that long.” Wow, rambling much Caverly? I was broken out of my thoughts by Brandon’s laugh. I couldn’t help but blush.
“Your funny when you ramble. But no, it shouldn’t take that long. All we have to do is make an ‘instrument’. If you even want to call it that.” He said with humor in his voice.
“Too true!” I said. “Okay, I will meet you by your locker when school is over.” He told me as he was walking away. I didn’t reply, I just gave him a thumbs up. I turned back to Scarlett who had a knowing look on her face.
