Carter - Wow . I just told her I liked her . Man I really didn't realize what I was getting myself into . He probably doesn't even like me back . I scoffed out loud . Accident , crap . She was staring at me with wide eyes . Now she thinks I'm an insensitive jerk . I told her I liked her then scoffed . I'm am officially a retard . No offense to the actual retarded . This girl is making my brain go haywire . I took a step back realizing everything that just happened .

Elizabeth - Woah . He likes me .? Impossible . There's is no humanly way possible for him to like me . I'm just not a like able person . I can't be . My best friend doesn't even know my deepest secrets . How could I even think of adding another person to this confusing equation . Then I hear him scoff . Really .? A scoff . I mean , I know I don't want you to like me but seriously .? What are you bipolar now .? Wait . Why am I even stressing over this .? It not like I like him . I shouldn't even be close to him . If I fall all that happens in the end is I hit rock bottom . i can't risk that . So after my very non noticeable blush . Note the sarcasm . I took a deep breath . Put your walls back up I tell myself in encouragement .

I laughed " Why that is unfortunate , it seems I do not share these feelings . " he looks astonished at the very least . " I'm sorry if I've hurt your feelings .

I just - I - I have to go . " I turned to grab the doorknob to leave . He puts his hand on my arm . I turn the knob and jerk my arm out of his grip . Fast - walking instead of running so I don't draw attention to myself .

Carter - She had to be lying . How could she say that .? She had to at least give me a chance . But then again , why would she .? Why would she want to give someone like me a chance . I laughed a humorless laugh . My home style is not something I could actually conjure up to having a girlfriend with . As soon as she found out about my ' situation ' she would run in the opposite direction . Then again what could I lose .? She was already running the other way . Man I had to talk to her again . I have to figure out what's wrong with her .? She wouldn't act the way he does if she was perfectly fine . That I know for sure .

Elizabeth - The bell was about to ring so I straightened up and tried to relax . I tried to forget about what happened not even 5 minutes ago . Which was clearly impossible since I spent the whole first period thinking about it . I made a mental note to talk to Lizzie about it .

<< skip to lunch >>

I sat down with Lizzie mentally preparing myself for the talk we were about to have . " Are you okay you seem a little jittery .? "

Lizzie said . " Actually , um , I need to talk to you . " She stared at me with wide eyes . " Well , umm Carter ...... Told ....... Me ...... That ...... He ...... Likes ...... Me ...... " I said with ragged breaths . She gasped " I knew it .! " Just then the exact person I didn't want to talk to had to show up . Of course life's great don'tcha think .? Ha whatever . " What ya guys talking about .? " Carter said as he out his tray down . " You . " wow blunt Lizzie . I looked at my feet , blushing obviously .

Carter - Dang they was already talking about me .? Girls and their gossip these days . " What .? I know you think I'm hot . " I tried to say without looking nervous . Not trying to be cocky but I really don't need to look nervous in front of her . I'll just make a bigger fool out of myself . She blushed . I blushed in return . Maybe she really ! does like me and she was lying . " Hey Elizabeth can I talk to you alone .? " I said . She looked scared . Wow I'm great aren't i . We just met and she's already scared of me . She looked at Lizzie I think her name was , for a confirmation . Lizzie responded by picking her tray up and exiting the table .

Elizabeth - I looked at me feet , which I caught myself doing a lot lately . " so .. Um .. Wha-what do you want to talk to me about .? " I stuttered . " Well , " he ran his fingers through his hair . Dang that was hot . " I wanted to know if , if instead of hanging out at the park next Saturday . Well would you like to go do something with me like a movie or something .? "

I blushed . I can't believe he asked me out wow if it was really an ask out . Was it .? Yeah , yeah I think it was . I didn't want to be rude .

" S-sure . "

Carter - She said yes . She said yes .! Wow . " Well I'll meet you at the park at 7 , movie date .? That sound good .? " . She tilted her head up a little . " Yeah sounds good . " This Saturday is going to be awesome . Only if I wasn't so nervous .

A/N - Sorry of its short or long or w/e it is . But comments and votes .? Thanks guys . I was having a little bit of writers block and I'm on vacation so it was also hard to write . Hope you like it though .! Love you guys 😘
