The note

52 4 5
                                    

As I walked into class, I saw some boys chucking balls of paper and shouting at each other. It was typical of them; they never learn to behave. As the teacher came in, he gave the boys an after school detention (again).

It was maths class and, like every time, it was boring. Some people were on their phones, chewing gum, whispering to one another and that kind of stuff. I was staring off out the window daydreaming when in the corner of my eye, I saw a big wave of the class fidgeting around and whispering to each other.

I looked over to see what all the commotion was about. They were passing a note across in my direction.
"This is for you," whispered the girl who was sat next me, "It's from Liam."
Liam and I have known each other for as long as I can remember. We are really good friends and I guess I have a tiny crush on him. I don't know if he has a crush on me though.

I looked over across the room to Liam and he gave me a little nervous smile. What's that about? I slowly unfolded the note and read:

Hi Felicity,
I know we've known each other for a long time and our friendship is really close between us, but I think that our friendship can be more than that. You see, I don't know about you but I've liked you for a really long time and I'm wondering if you would go on a date with me?
Don't feel as if you have to do this. It's completely up to you. Just please let me know ASAP.
From Liam. x

I looked over at him once again and smiled; he smiled back.  On the back of the note I wrote a quick message saying:

Of course I will, Liam! xxx

I got the class to pass it back to him and as soon as he read it, he looked over, gave me a cheeky wink, and smiled at me once more.
