The dismissal bell for math class rang, and it was time to go to lunch. Finally, I thought. I picked up my bag, and started walking to the cafeteria, thinking about my conversation with Luke, and the looks on Ina and Kaitlin's faces when I tell them about what happened. As I was walking, I felt someone gently nudge my arm. It was Luke.
"Okay. You convinced me. I'll stay in that class," he said with a grin.
"YASSS! Uhhhhh...I mean that's cool! I'm glad you took my words into consideration." Ugh. Big words...I sound like a nerd. Wait, I am a nerd.
"Ooh! A smart girl. Talk nerdy to me." He winked at me, then chuckled. Can someone just record what's happening right now?! I want to rewind to that wink again because that was just...hottt.
"Awh! Whatever. So, what made you decide to talk to me anyways?" Oops. I shouldn't have asked that. His answer could be either good or bad. Let's just hope it goes good...
"What do you mean?" he asked. Whew, thank god for that. Now I can redeem myself.
"You know... It's the classic 'I'm a nerd girl, and he's a popular guy' concept. To be honest, I didn't think you'd ever actually talk to me," I said with tone of unconfident-ness.
"I don't know. You seem cool. You're not like those other nerds. It's actually pretty fun to tease you and talk to you," he said, turning his head to look at me. His response made me start blushing. "Awh! Haha, you're blushing!"
"NO I'M NOT..." I said, trying to hide my emotions from him. OKAY...yeah I am. I mean, let's be real here. WHO WOULDN'T BE BLUSHING IF LUKE SAID THAT TO YOU?
"Sureee," he said smiling.
"Heyyyyy Luuuuuuuuke! [Blows kiss in our direction]" It was Amber and her stupid clique.
"Ugh. It's them," Luke said under his breath. Amber and her clique started walking our way.
"Ew. Who is she? Why are you hanging out with her...she's so...ew." Amber gave me this rude look, then directed her eyes back to Luke.
"Leave her alone. You're just jealous that I'm talking to her instead of you." Luke put his arm over me as a gesture for her to stop bullying me.
"Uh, no I'm not. I don't even care that you're talking to her, because I know that you wouldn't date her. She's too ugly." She looked back at me. "Ew. Where did you get that shirt from? Your grandma's closet? There's nobody dumb enough to wear that shirt but you."
SHUT UP PUTA, I thought. (A/N: Sorry. That's an inside joke...) "SHUT UP AMBER! SHE'S SMARTER THAN YOU'LL EVER BE." Luke looked away from the thot. "C'mon Lerin. Let's go." We started walking away from the jerk and her clique.
"You're just trying to make me jealous so I'll want you back! You know you're regretting that you dumped me! We all know it!" Amber screamed out. While we were still walking away, Luke just carelessly flipped her off, without looking back.
"That's not true. I broke up with her for a reason. I don't even know why I dated the b*tch in the first place," he said. "Don't listen to her, or anything she says. She's just jealous." What he said really made me smile, but I was still hurt by what she said.
(A/N: Dang Amber. Way to ruin the vibe... Anyways, I hope you like the story so far. I'll keep updating. I promise! x)
