I folded the paper and smoothed out all the edges to get a perfect paper airplane. I repeated the process to get about seven planes. Walking over to my window, I opened it and stepped onto the fire escape. I held up the planes one by one, and let th...

~~~~ Paisley's POV
My next class, Algebra, went by in a blink. We had a substitute who could care less about what we were doing. After Algebra, I headed to my last and only class with Ella: History. In history I probably had the best teacher, Mr. Richards. He taught the material but also had a way of making it interesting.
And I was one of the liked students, so that's a plus. I headed toward Ella, and quickly tapped her shoulders yelling, "Boo!"
She actually screamed, causing everyone in the class to burst out laughing,
"You bitch!" She (surprise, surprise) screeched. I just laughed harder. The final bell rang and Ella and I slid into seats next to each other.
"Today we will be discussing the topic of Lewis and Clark. You will just answer this sheet to the video displaying from the projector." Mr. Richards calls on two random students to pass out the sheets and started to play the video.
After the video was completed along with my sheet, I leaned back and sighed.
"Psst, Paisley. What are the answers?" Whispered (very loudly) Ella.
"Seriously?" I asked.
"Yeah." Okay, wow. I just slipped my paper on her desk and pulled out my book. Five minutes later the bell rang, so Ella and I turned in our papers to his desk. We headed out of the room and toward Ella's locker.
"Soooooo, Jace asked me out." Ella just casually said.
"What? How? When? Why are you only telling me this now!?!" I shouted.
"Jace asked me out, by talking, Spanish, and I don't know." She just gave a shrug. I was flabbergasted that she was acting so casual. She's been pining after him for years!
"How are you not totally freaking out!?!" I screeched.
"I'm really freaking out internally, but Jace is down the hall looking at me. Don't look, it'll be obvious." I slowly nodded slowly with a huge grin splitting across my face.
"I call being your maid of honor." I said while laughing. She just shoved me. We left her locker and made our way to mine. I put in the combination and grabbed my jacket. We left the school and headed to the subway.

I entered my quiet apartment and headed to my room. My parents were off on a business trip in Europe. Oh well, means I get to raid the fridge.
I set my backpack on my bed and turn on my T.V. I pull out some pieces of construction paper and set it on my desk. Pulling out the best colors, I started to write little messages on the paper like: Be your own kind of beautiful or, every day you make the world a little better. I've been doing this for as long as I remember.
