Hi. I'm Dylan. Nice to meet you. I'm sixteen. I live in Seattle, Washington. This is my story. "Hurry up, Dylan" my mother calls. I have to go eat dinner. I have to go eat dinner. I'll be back. Okay, I'm back. So my mom told me that I have to go to school tomorrow. I didn't go today. I'm really scared to face all the bullies that'll hurt Alyssa tomorrow. You guys know her right? Yeah, okay good. I also get to see Alyssa in first period. I really hope she's okay. She's been really upset lately. I overheard her at lunch the other day talking to her friends saying that I never cared about her. I actually care about her a lot. Prom is coming up next weekend. I'm gonna walk up to her on Monday and ask her. Today is Thursday, so I have some time to prepare. I'll call over Parker today and ask what he thinks about me asking her. "Hey, bro could you come over?" "Yeah of course, bro. See ya soon." Parker is here now. I told Parker my idea of asking Alyssa to prom on Monday. He thought it was an amazing idea. I'll call the school and let them know I'll be asking her during our assembly on Monday. I'm gonna ask her to prom. I really think I love her. I heard her tell her brother at school on Tuesday that she liked me. She never gets attention anymore. I think she's really upset because I'll never notice her. I don't notice her in school because I don't want my friends laughing at me. But, honestly I don't care anymore. She deserves all the attention she gets. Alyssa is the sweetest girl ever. I'm really lucky to know her. I'll ask Mr. Christian if I can work with her tomorrow in first period. I want her to know I care.
