I heard her laugh before I actually saw her face. She is so loud but, I'm used to it after knowing her for 10 years and believe me, she hasn't changed a bit. Not at all. I looked over at the stairs to the canteen which she was currently making her way down with her two best friends Jennifer (known as Jen) and Lucy. Of course, Summer is in the middle after all, she I the prettiest and the person everyone wants to be. Just because she popular, you might expect her to be a bitch but, she's not. She treats everyone equally which is just one of the many things I love about her. I'm Jake by the way and Summer is my best friend.

"Hello.... Jake" I hear someone say as I continue to stare at Summer however I am rudely interrupted by Austin pushing me off my seat. I stand up and look at him.

"What was that for?" I ask him and he gives me I look which says 'cone on. You really don't know?' I just shrug.

"You can't stare at her like that. If you do, she'll realise that you like her and your whole friendship could get ruined. Do you really want that?" I shake my head at him and sit back down. One last look at Summer tells me that she's heading towards our table. A minute later I feel two arms wrapping around my shoulders.

"Guess who" I hear a very familiar voice saying.

"Um... the queen?" I ask, playing along with the joke.

"No silly, it's me" I turn around to look at her and her smile makes me feel warm inside. Why is she so gorgeous? Why do I have to fancy her?

"I knew it was you really' I tell her and she sticks her tongue out at me while taking a seat between Jen and Lucy on the other side of the table. I love that she hugs me when she sees me but, I want more than a hug. I want to be able to hold her hand and kiss her whenever I want to but, she doesn't want that. I know she doesn't.

"Oh my God" Jen says and she starts clapping her hands. She points to a guy who had just entered the canteen. "How fit is he?" She says looking at the other two girls. They both nod in agreement.

"Hey, Summer, why don't you go and introduce yourself to him?" Lucy asks her. Or you can stay here, yeah stay here with us I say to myself.

"I'm not going over there" she says and I sigh "I'm not going there because he's coming here"

Noooooo I turn around to see that he really is walking to our table and the whole time he's looking at Summer.

"Do you mind d if me and my friends sit with you?" He asks Summer and, of course, she doesn't mind.

"I'm Tom by the way" Mr 'fit' says as he sits down at our table.

"I'm Summer" says my best friend as she extends her hand out for him to shake. He does.

"That is a gorgeous name for a gorgeous girl" Tom says and I feel like I'm going to be sick. He flirting with her. That should be me but, no she doesn't like me in that way. Tom keeps giving her compliments and after about 5 minutes I stand up and walk out. Why can't she see that I like her? I think to myself. Why? Why? Why? Can't she start to like me? It's so frustrating how she doesn't realise I like her. But, she will. One day, I promise you that as she will.
