Angie waved and greeted Logan, I however, stayed silent. "Emma, Angie, Hi!" He smiled and held his football under his arm. "Hey! How've you been?" Angie asked.
"How's things going with your girlfriend Bethany!?" I thought to myself, I still was upset.
"Good, good," he exclaimed, "what about you too?"
"Great!" Angie said happily.
"Okay, I guess..." I mumbled under my breath, as I stared at my feet.

There was a short moment of silence, I felt like I was being stared at, examined even. I looked up and Logan stood there in fromt of me staring, he looked concerned.
"Im sorry to ask but, what do you mean okay?" He asked, but, why was he so worried about me when he has a girl? "Im okay," I said.
"Oh,"
"Yeah."
Then he said goodbye, and left.
"Wow smooth Em," Angie rolled her eyes at me and smiled.
"What do you mean?"
"You made that very awkward,"
It wasn't all my fault, it was my hearts fault, there just something about him, something alluring.
I half smiled, we walked inside, and found our designated lockers.
Angie and I were separated by one locker, who it belonged to? We didn't know, until he walked up to us.
"Hey, again!" The guy said, it was Logan. How was this going to work? I was not being beside Logan, my crush, all year long.
"Hey! Haha what a coincidence," Angie exclaimed.
"Hey," I said softly. Why was I so nervous around him?
"Logan!" I recognized that voice all too well... it was Bethany Andrews.
"Uh, Beth!" He replied.
"Why are you over here, talking to these... girls?"
...Girls? Yeah were girls.
"Uhm, because my locker is here."
"Oh, well, just, don't talk to them,"
"Why?"
Bethany pulled him aside, "Because they are snobby, and rude, and the sl*ts of the school." I couldn't quite make out what she said, but Logan looked confused.
"What? No they aren't." He replied.
Bethany rolled her eyes, "you'll see."
She kissed his cheek and left. I felt like  my heart was going to explode. Angie looked at me, "Are you okay?" I shook my head, tears in my eyes. Angie frowned, and I watched Logan walk away with Bethany. Why did I always want the ones I cant have?

Later that day, I made my way to science. Science was the one class Angie and I didn't together, so I took my time getting there. As I walked I stared out the big window in the hall.
Suddenly I felt someone grip my shoulder, my heart stopped.

I turned quickly to see who did it, it was Logan, "Hey, what class are you heading to?" He asked. I felt relived that it was Logan and not some creep I didn't even know, but I also was nervous, because, it's Logan.
"Uh, science, what about you?"
"Science," he smiled, and my heart melted, he had an adorable smile.
"Hah, cool," I smiled nervously.
"Are you okay?"
"Yeah, why?" I was lying to him, and myself.
"You don't seem like your, funny, goofy self recently."
"What do you mean?"
He looked down, "I don't know... you just dont seem like you,"
I frowned.
"You know," he touched my cheek and I thought I was going to die, "Im here for you if you need someone to talk to,"
I smiled, "Good to know,"
Then we went into science class.
