later that night i was sat at my desk, music playing through my earbuds as i typed up the essay due for english. i sat back, stretching my arm as they were getting tired. i looked down at the drawer and smiled as i thought about the notes. i pulled it open and grabbed them out, reading the first one i'd gotten.
i smiled but it was ripped out of my hands. i pulled my earbuds out as i saw monty.
"are these love letters?" he laughed. "secret admirer?"
"they were put in my bag and in my locker," i said.
he looked down and saw the baseball.
"do you think it's scott?"
i smiled, "i'm not sure."
he handed it back to me.
"do you like scott?"
"i think so," i admitted and pushed the note back in the drawer.
"you should ask him out."
"oh i don't ask people out."
he sat on my bed, "why not?"
"i don't want to be humiliated."
"are you serious?" he asked. "you're afraid of guys saying no to you?"
"well yeah," i laughed.
"dude, you are known as the hottest junior, you know that right?"
"so i've heard," i said, "from you at bryce's party."
"oh, right." he shook his head. "anyway, no guy would ever say no to you."
"i don't know," i said. "if something goes wrong, scott and i's friendship will be ruined."
"dude, you guys are both too nice to let petty shit come between yall. if you break up, you'll go back to being best friends."
it fell silent.
"can i ask you a question?"
"go ahead," he said.
"i was thinking about this last night after we got home, do you think alex likes me?"
"alex standall?"
"yeah," i nodded.
"you are so clueless." he said. "of course he does. you guys have been best friends for over a year now. why were you thinking about it."
"i don't know," i said. "in all honesty, i was just thinking about him and wondered if he liked me."
"so wait, do you like alex or scott?"
"scott...or maybe alex, is both an option?"
he let out a laugh, "little nicky is a hoe."
"no i'm not, i'm just confused." i said and looked into his eyes. "i'm really confused."
"i think you need to find out who wrote you those notes and i think your prince charming is at the other end."
"i guess you're right." i smiled.
"i'm always right."
