Mornings can be the best, sometimes. I just came back from a little run and I just made myself a bowl of cereal, which I eat while simultaneously reading my book. This book was one of my favorite ones, it was 'When We Collided' by Emery Lord and I loved it.
I read it on the bus ride to school, which I had to take because my house was at a fair distance from the school. When I reached school, I headed straight for my lockers. I had some time before the first period, so I scoured the hallways silently looking for Kent but I couldn't find him.
There I go again, thinking about Kent.
How can you get so obsessed with a person you've hardly known for a week? It's like ever since yesterday, I've not stopped thinking about him.
Today was different I woke up from a dream and the funny thing was that this dream was about green eyes and who's the only person I know that has green eyes? Kent.
I can't stop thinking about him. I don't usually do this but maybe it's because he's my first friend or the first guy I've spoken to. I don't even know what's going on but I've been so distracted lately.
I go to school as casual as possible and I walk through the hallways, I feel butterflies in my stomach. What if he popped out right now and said 'hey'? How would I respond?
See, stupid questions and expectations have been clogging my brain.
It's Math right now and I don't even know what I'm expecting out of it. Maybe I'm expecting Kent to come or maybe I'm not. But why would I expect him? Maybe I've been seeing too much of him...
Class begins as Mr. Bernard starts with a revision of the previous class and now fifteen minutes have passed. I wonder why he isn't here.
Why do I keep on wondering about him?
I try to ignore my thoughts and try to focus on the sum on the board. I solve it up in about 110 seconds. Yep, pretty accurate. I look up at the clock and now it has been nineteen minutes since the class has begun. He must be skipping class.
We do a couple more sums and class goes on. I'm pretty focused as of now but I can't ignore that little nagging feeling at the bottom of my stomach that tells me to look up in case he comes in.
Why would he come in?
Why am I thinking about him again?
My mind keeps escaping to the different possibilities of the reason he isn't here and I literally can't think straight.
I get so frustrated that the pencil in my hand snaps and that's the perfect second that the bell rings.
I gather my things and walk out of the class but for some weird, dumb and stupid reason the only thought in my head is:
Why isn't he here?
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
don't we all have those moments where we're completely obsessed with people? :)
I'm extremely sorry for the slow updates, my school just began and as a student, it's kind of task to manage all this.

QOTD: If you were stranded on an island, who's the one person you'd bring with you?
