After English class ended, we made our way to the gym as usual. Clarissa wouldn't stop talking about Nathan as usual. I would just shake my head at her comments, wondering what it must feel like to love somebody that much.

We changed into our gym clothes and came out as usual, sitting on the gym floors waiting for everyone to come out.

Today we were earlier than usual, it looked like we were the first ones in here. Students were barely beginning to come through the main gym doors.

Minding my own business I felt a small punch on my arm. I looked up to find Nathan walking towards the boys locker room.

He waved to Clarissa and I, and then he winked. The thing I couldn't conclude was if he was winking to me or Clarissa.

"Did he just wink at you?!" cried Clarissa.

"Girl no. We know that was for you." I said, trying to convince her even though I wasn't really sure.

The gym slowly started to get filled with students. Lydia also made her way out, sitting next to us on the floor.

Finally once the last two boys were out the coach came out of his office, revealing himself.

"Alright guys, y'all know the routine. Get to it!"

He blew his whistle, indicating us to begin our exercises. As usual, I was one of the first ones done. I sat against a wall, waiting for everyone to finish. I leaned over to one side. A few seconds later I felt someone sit next to me, I turned and met with those blue eyes.

''Nathan''

''What's up.'' he then pointed to a water fountain. ''Doesn't that bring some hilarious memories''

I smiled remembering everything that had occurred during lunch. How both of us were trapped inside a restroom stall in the girls restroom.

''Gosh, I thought they were going to catch us.''

''Nah. Maybe they would of, if you screamed., which you were about too!'' he spoke.

''Well what you expect me to do! You carried me out of nowhere. Not even giving me a heads up!''

''Well my bad.'' he said as he got up and walked over to his friends.

I rolled my eyes at him, becoming pretty annoyed with the guy. I had to admit he was cute, but sometimes being a bit too childish brings some annoyance.

I felt a body come and fall on me. I stroke her beautiful blonde hair as I let her rest on me.

''Your lucky. He came and spoke to you'' she cried.

''Oh wow, 1 minute of conversation is a lot.'' I said sarcastically.

''Better than nothing!'' she cried as she got up,

I slowly made my way up as well, walking towards the exit of the door. The coach opened it and everyone dashed off. Following our normal routine, we walked over and this time decided to stand right around the corner of the building. That way we could be closer to the building when it would be time to go.

''Are y'all planning to go the dance?'' questioned Lydia.

''I don't know. It sounds pretty boring.'' I replied.

''No! You have to go with me, you too Lydia. We all have to go!'' cried Clarissa.

''Clarissa calm down we all know why you want to go'' commented Lydia, making both of us laugh.

''Shut up! No its not ! I've just never been to one.....and I want to go! Come on! Its our senior year.''

''I don't know.....I prefer to get my beauty sleep you know?'' I said.

''Oh come on Carolina. You need no sleep at all. You got it all. I'm surprised your not the one suggesting this. This would be a great opportunity for your ''mission'''' said Lydia, as she leaned against the wall.

''Your right! Change of plans. Were going!'' I said.

''Yes! I love you!'' Clarissa hugged me so tight, making me laugh.

''Oh darling! We all know who you actually love'' I said, winking at her. She showed her little blush making me awe.

''What do you like about him?'' questioned Lydia.

''EVERYTHING!'' responded Carissa, as she spun around in a circle.

''My child! Of course but you know be specific! Gosh he got you crazy!'' I stated, making her laugh.

''Well, he has the most adorable eyes in the world. He's smart in school and athletic. He's very nice and funny, especially in calculus. He's just perfect. Nathan is just pure perfection '' Clarissa let out a sigh, and I turned to Lydia whose eyes were rolling.

The bell rang, and we began walking. Right behind the corner was Nathan, who didn't see us coming and was shocked by our appearance just like we were with his. Panic was spread all over my body, but I knew Clarissa must of been feeling way worse.

''Nathan....what the hell did you hear?'' questioned Lydia. He then spoke out the word I was afraid to hear.

''Everything'' he cried slowly.

''Oh my gosh!''

I turned to find Lydia holding Carissa, who had just fainted.
