The It Boy

Growing Closer

     As we grew closer I wanted to know why he was still talking to me. He never told me about the whole 4th-grade thing or the who the girl was, I really wanted to know but it felt like he didn't want to talk about it. The day he walked out of the computer lab I think he was upset about 4th-grade think. There was no way I was going to ask about the girl because then he would know that I was stalking him and I read what he wrote in private. That would be very bad for both sides of the party we would both be upset and I don't want anything to happen like it did in 4th grade where we stop talking. I didn't know what to do so I asked Dylan to come over to my house on Friday to spend the night so we could talk about the whole Eric thing.

"I don't know why he's talking to me,"  I said confused and frustrated.

"Maybe he wants to reconnect and go back to how you were back in 4th grade," Dylan said questionably.

"Yeah, maybe your right." "I just feel like that not it,"I said as I flopped on to my white bed.

"Why are you complaining? "You have a hot boy talking to you and he doesn't want to have sex," Dylan said excitingly

"Hey, you don't know that he could be using the past to getting close to me to get in bed with me." I shot back. Then thinking about everything we have talked about.

Dylan noticing says "He's not that stupid, I think he likes you."

"No way! "Eric? "Are we talking about the same guy right? "There's no way he likes me."

"You never know," Dylan said quietly while smiling.

"That's the thing I do know," I said soon realizing I just gave Dylan something to ask me about.

"What do you mean? Dylan said in excitement

"Oh nothing, I was just joking," I said trying to change the subject

*Dylan picks up pillow* "If you don't tell me right now I'm going to attack you." "You have 3 seconds."

"1" Dylan shouts

"Dylan, omg don't do it,"I say pushing myself to the top of my bed.

"2" Dylan once again shouts

"Okay... Okay." I said loud enough just in time for 3.

"Spill the beans or you'll be sorry." Dylan threatened while smiling.

Dylan was a little crazy but I loved him for it.

"ughh..... I may have kind of not really stalked Eric Thursday until he left school because he was on the computer." I said just loud enough Dylan heard.

"You what?! Dylan said almost screaming.

"I waited for Eric to leave and got on his computer and looked what he was doing."

'What was he doing? "Was it bad? Dylan asked curiously.

"No," I said slowly.

"What was it? Dylan asked.

"ughh.... just a somewhat diary entry talking about a girl he likes describing her and how she makes him feel,"I said shyly like he was going to judge me.

"Omg really? Dylan said questionably.

"Yeah," I said feeling relieved he didn't judge me.

We both sat up on my bed talking about Eric until 2 am when we finally fell asleep. When I woke up I saw I had received a text from someone. It was from Eric asking if I could hang out. I was so confused for many reasons. First, how did he have my number and second why was he asking me to hang out?
