"take a chance on me"
Sitting at the small lunch table, Amelia picked at the gross excuse that the school had called 'lunch'. Across from the girl that wasn't paying attention sat amelia's girl best friend, Marylyn Christensen. She was as blonde as Amelia but instead, had green eyes, the two of them were like "two peas in a pod" as one said.
Marylyn believed that the famous girl popped into everyone's heads before herself, so she went by the nickname Maryl which is just as a unique name. "ello! Earth to Amelia!"
The schoolgirl's head shot up as she heard her name being spoken, "Yeah? Sorry, I'm out of it today." she slightly laughed as the girl across from her gave her a weird look. Usually Amelia was very talkative, especially during lunchtime since the rest of the school day she had to be quiet.
"As I was saying before you rudely ignored me! Bill asked me to the dance! Has anyone asked you yet?" Maryl asked with a suggestive look.
Looking back down at the food, her hair swayed as she shook her head and continued swirling the noodles on the tray, "No and I'm pretty sure I'm not going."
From across the room her eyes found Paul and George who had been clearly arguing.
"George, I can't ask her!" Paul whisper yelled to the younger boy sitting across from him. George dramatically rolled his eyes before shoving his peanut butter and jelly sandwich inside of his mouth.
"Yes you can! I heard that a few people wanted to ask her so hurry up and do it before someone else does, shite! I'll do it myself if you don't!" George fought back throwing his arms up in the air as he did not want to cause a scene.
Looking over to his next door neighbor, he noticed the boy from the record store walking the way she was sitting, with his eyes glued on her. "Now go! I want to eat my food," George complained before continuing on with his meal.
McCartney quickly strode over to Amelia, seconds before Alexander could've made it to her. With a single rose in hand he looked at his best friend trying to get words to flow out of his mouth.
Amelia looked up at Paul giving him a small smile, "Hello, Paul!" she exclaimed. Paul smiled back before handing her the rose before clearing his throat. Maryl was off to the side watching what was about to happen, with wide eyes, she nibbled slowly on a carrot.
"Amelia, will you do me the honor and go to the dance with me?" he hopefully asked quickly but not too quickly. His heart was beating a thousand times per minute and he felt like he was about to explode waiting for an answer.
The smile seemed to spread wider across her face, "Of course I will!" she spoke happily. The thought of Paul asking her never even crossed Amelia's mind. It also scared her more than anything to know they'd be going on a 'date' but she was sure he had meant it in a friendly.
