as i walked through the school's doors, i thought about how i was going ask chris out.
i looked around the packed hallway to find chris and gordie by their lockers.
i started to make my way over, nervous as to what he might say.
i walk up to them, they shut their locker doors and turn around.
chris and i were now facing each other "hey y/n" he says, i smile. teddy and vern then walk up to us as teddy swings his arm over my shoulders.
"chris did you ask out heather" teddy asks him, my smile slowly fades away.
chris looks at me then the floor, scratching the back of his neck he says "uh yeah she said yes".
"that's great" vern says cheerfully, i push teddy's arm off of me and start walking away.
"what's wrong y/n" gordie shouts, i turn around and stop "forget it, this was pointless!" i stormed out of the school.
chris and gordie then run out of the school, coming towards where i was walking.
"y/n, what's wrong? you can tell me anything, we're best friends" chris says, grabbing my wrist so i'd stop.
"that's the problem!" i yell. chris and gordie look at me in complete confusion. "i don't wanna be your friend."
chris lets go of my wrist and frowns then just stares at the ground, "i- i wanna be more then friends" i finally say stuttering.
he looks up at me and wipes his eyes "what?" he asked "i like you, ok" i say raising my hands up in defence "big deal, oh wait, but it is because you like heather and not me" i start to walk off.
chris grabs my hand turning me around once again "the only reason i'm dating heather is to get my mind off of you" he admits.
"why didn't you tell me this then?" i question. "because i didn't know someone as sweet, caring and beautiful like you would like somebody like me" chris shrugs his shoulders.
"nothings wrong with you chris, why wouldn't i like you?" he smiles. "will you go out with me?" he asked
"i would love to, chris!" he pulled me into a big hug, and i kiss his cheek gently.
gordie sighs "i'm always the third wheel" chris and i let out a small laugh and walk back to the school.
