Why me? a story of all suckish things in life

Chapter 8- Lilly

Wow, I thought to myself. We have two run always, me with parent problems, and Cody. I have no idea what the heck is going on with her. I had just gotten the call from Max and I think he has some sort of feelings for Ashlen, anyone could tell that from a mile away, whether or not he realizes this is beyond me. I think they'd be a cute couple but first he needs to stop being a chicken and talk to her. Just then I heard the office manager say "He'll see you now." I was secretly going to a college interview. So I walked in the office to him sharpening his pencils. His name tag said Dr. Yolmen.

Hello Miss. Lilly, let's get this started. He said as I took a seat.

Alright then, why do you want to go to Washington University?

I want to go here because I have always heard about an amazing science program, and business program and I want to be a scientist, but if that doesn't work out I want to be able to go into another field easily.

Very well, now why do you want to go to college?

I've always wanted to get an education, ever since I was little. People always underestimated me because I'm a blond and I was determined to prove them wrong, and ever sense I've had a 4.0 GPA and straight As.

Well good for you, now what are your plans for after college?

Well if I can't be a scientist I want to be an astrologer, I've always loved looking for stars, planets, something others haven't found. I used to look up stars and galaxy's to see if I found any of those.

Last question, who do you look up to? I thought about that for a second then I answered. Eleanor Roosevelt.

And why is that?

She was always helping people, she made sure others were happy before making sure she was happy, she risked relaxing and having me time to help other people. That was how she relaxed, that was her me time. Never have I met or heard of a more selfless women.

Thank you Miss Lilly, I will be in touch soon. Good luck.

Thank you Dr.Yolmen. I walked out and felt really good about my self, I mean I actually got an interview with my number one choice in college and it went AMAZING and my parents only think I was at a job interview. Just when I got put I got a text, from Max.

Hey I need to talk to you. I wondered what about.

is this about Ashlen?

How'd you know?

When we all skyped, anyone could tell from a mile away you felt something more about her, so spill it like a can of beans.

Ok. I think I have a crush on her.

Knew it.

what should I do??? I'm going insane I want to talk to her about it but I'm scared, what if she doesn't feel the same.

She will, you guys have known each other since we were 11/12, she'll like you, I think she does, I knew she did during Narnia. When her and Max first met we were doing Narnia at the Puyallup children theater, he played Peter, Ashlen played the white witch, I was Susan, and Cody was Aslan. We had a lot of fun and Ashlen was going insane because she had a huge crush on Max, we said the song "I won't say I'm in love" from Hercules was her song.

She did?

Duh you didn't realize it? Wow you're dumber then I thought.

HEY!

Don't get you're a** in a twist, but yes she had a HUGE crush on you.

Well Cody told me something like that, I wasn't really paying attention.

Wow, idiot.

Shut up

So talk to her, she'd be thrilled

Ok I think I will.

"I think" is not good enough for me. I need I will

Ok I will, right when we're done talking

Ok, bye

No not yet!! That's when I stopped talking back. I kept getting more texts from him.

LILLY! I NEED TO TALK TO YOU! PLEASE!!

I thought you were going to talk to her.

What should I say?!?!?

Wow, uh how about I like you

Well no duh

I'm serious, it doesn't have to be long winded, just short and sweet.

Ok, ok short and sweet.

Ok goodbye

Wait!

No you need to talk to her, end of convo

No please.

Text me again and I will block you. He didn't reply after that, good. Hopefully he would talk to her.

Chicken. I muttered under my breath and walked away.
