"I can't believe I'm actually ditching school!" I said in disbelief. I hopped into the passenger seat of Zack's Ford F150 and shut the door. 

"Chill, Sunshine. It's only Study Hall. It's not like we're gonna get in trouble. They don't care if you show up there or not," Zack reassured, chuckling. 

"But still," I mumbled, fiddling with my key chain 

"Oh, lighten up. After all, you are a ray of sunshine," he added with a wink that drove butterflies crazy in my stomach. 

I rolled my eyes in a failed attempt to suppress the idiotic grin that surfaced.

"I've never ditched class before for fun," I admitted, fidgeting with the sleeves of my pastel pink sweatshirt. 

He doesn't know I've ditched because I was too em

Zack frowned and started the engine. The comforting chug of the engine relieved a bit of my anxiety, and soon I relaxed into the seat. 

"What do you mean by, 'for fun'?" he asked, turning his body to face me. 

I looked up to meet his gaze and cracked a small side smile. "You caught that, huh?"

"Yeah. I don't miss little things like that," he said. 

"I kinda noticed you pay attention to the little things I do," I responded, trying to change the subject.

"Also, you don't have to answer that if it makes you feel uncomfortable," he added.

I simply nodded and looked back down at my shoes. 

Zack started to back out of the parking lot. 

Should I tell him? I asked my conscience. 

If you want. 

Wow, thanks for the helpful advice.

Anytime.

I rolled my eyes at my conscience.
