At school I spent most of my time in the Reporters room and Eli spent most of his time in the drama room. He auditioned his people and found the whole cast. I was walking to the art room one day and I heard running footsteps. I entered the art room and closed the door behing me to work on my ceramics. I started to add more clay until loud knocks disturbed me. I looked at the door and Eli was their. I cleaned my hands and opened the door.

I walked tback to my clay and Eli asked “Hey are you busy?”

I looked at him and held the clay in front of him and said “Duh! And I have the article”.

Eli then asked “Need any help?”

Then I commented “Are you good with art?”

Eli replied “I’m good with you.”

I smiled and we kissed. We kept on kissing until Eli pushed me back and knocked over a tool. It then hit the machine for making my pot and the machine malfunction and span fast and moulded my pot out of shape. I screamed “Move!” and I tried to fix the machine. I tried pressing buttons but it wouldn’t stop so I pulled the plug.

Eli tired to help me take the clay off as it got stuck to the machine but I yelled to him “Just leave!”

He left and I spent most of my morning breaking apart my clay.

At lunch the whole gang sat together and Eli didn’t sit next to me after I yelled at him. The whole of lunch was silent and awkward. In English Eli and I barely talked. In science afterwards Imogen asked me “What’s up with you and Eli?”

I answered “Uh I kind of yelled at him in the art room.”

Imogen kicked and said “You two have lost your spark since you guys work so seperatley.”

I agreed and replied “Well he hasn’t asked me out or anything s why bother.”

After school at my locker I saw Eli and Imogen down the hallway talking. I thought of eves dropping. I flipped on my hoody and put sunglasses on and slowly walked near them and started to pretend text on my phone.

I heard Imogen say “You two have lost touch!”

Eli replied “I panic….. I try to be sweet but I always ruin things and in the art room Becky went all prickly.”

I started to frown and behind my shades was guilt.

Eli then said “I’m going to surprise her tonight.”

I bursted with joy inside of me. I walked out the door and to home. At home I went on my laptop and went online on a social website. I noticed Eli was Online.

I got a message from him…

Eli: Hey Becky

Me: I’m sorry about yelling at you

Eli: It’s ok

Me: So

Eli: You doing anything tonight?

Me: Nope but I hope I have something now

Eli: Well wear casual clothes because I’m taking you out

Me: J

Eli: I’ll pick you up at 6.00pm

Me: ok bye xoxo

I dressed in tight jeans and a jumper. I waited till 6.00pm.

Eli knocked on the door and I flung open and Eli was about to say hello but I shot to him and kissed him. Eli smiled and took my hand and helped my into the car.
