READER'S POV
○○○
I'm sitting in science waiting for our teacher to arrive. Which of course his always late but I'm not complaining. The door swung open to reveal our teacher rushing in.
"Sorry I'm late we'll start with our project right away" he announces. Loud groans are heard across the classroom. "Now we'll be doing these in partners. Lexi with Sasha, Alexandra with Henry, Y/N with Sal."
I've seen Y/N around, but never talked to her. She seems nice, though. I hope she's good in science because I'm not the brightest in science.
I walk over to y/n's table and sat beside her. "Hey, guess we're partners for the next couple days." I say breaking the awkward silence. She nods her head keeping it down.
Is she scared of me? Is it because of my prosthetic? God dammit she hates me doesn't she!
"Soooo...let's start!" I speak again. She nods in agreement still keeping her head down. She grabs her pencil and papers and starts writing down something. I look over and see her writing down ideas.
She pushes the paper in front of me without looking and points towards the writing. I read her ideas and agree with one.
We start working on our project in silence. It was Wednesday and we had till Friday to finish.
"Hey do you wanna come to my place to work on the project?" I ask. She looks at me for the first time allowing me to see her face. She was very beautiful.
She had (s/m/l) (h/c) hair with (e/c) eyes. Her skin tone was a beautiful and her face shape looked perfect on her. I couldn't believe I hadn't noticed this before.
She looks at me like I'd just killed someone. Her cheeks turn a deep shade of pink and her eyes look scared.
"Are you okay?" I ask worriedly. "I-I I'm fi-fine" her voice was hushed but beautiful. I didn't understand what was happening.
"Are you scared of me or something?" I was starting to get a little frustrated with her. "N-no of co-course no-not" she starts playing with her fingers.
She's shy! I'm so dumb. She's a shy girl!
"Are you shy?" I put a hand on her shoulder causing her to look at me. She nods her head 'yes' and looks at my hand. "Hey it's fine you don't have to be!" I remove my hand from her shoulder.
Y/N'S POV
I look at the cold hand on my shoulder. Sal removes his hand and speaks. "Hey it's fine you don't have to be!" His voice was muffled by his mask but calm and reassuring.I was very shy around people but I felt like I could trust him. I give him a warm smile and pack my stuff up. I look towards Sal and speak as clearly as I could.
"I-I'd love t-to come to yo-your pla-place" my voice was shaky still. His mask moved which I assume would mean he's smiling.
The bell rang meaning it was lunch time. I grabbed my backpack and walked to my locker.
After putting my stuff away I made my way to the cafeteria. I sat at a table alone like usual. I didn't have many friends. There's (friends name) but she/he is sick today.
I start eating when a figure sits across from me. I look up and see the same blue hair as before.
"Hey" Sal says sweetly. I give him a small wave. "Wh-why are yo-you sitting wi-with me?" I ask shyly. "Because I don't want you to sit alone. I'm your friend and friends don't let other friends sit alone!" He exclaims.
A big smile appears on my face which causes him to chuckle. "We're fri-friends?" The smile never left my face. "Yeah we are" he says.
My heart melted. I took a deep breath to try and make a conversation without stuttering so much.
"So te-tell me ab-about you" I say with less stutter. He chuckles then spoke. "Well my names Sal Fisher but my friends call me SallyFace" "SallyFace?" I question the nickname.
"Yeah my friends back in New Jersey weren't the best so I lived up to the name" he explains. I nod. "Tell me about you".
"Well my name is y/n I don't have a nickname and I have a cat named (random cat name)" I spoke without stuttering. Sal clapped. I look at him weirdly.
"You didn't stutter!" He says. I smile widely. "I have a cat too named Gizmo" his voice spoke softly.
We talked during the rest of the lunch hour. He was very easy to talk to and he was very nice about my shyness. Many people find it annoying but he didn't.
The rest of the day went by fast and soon it was time to head to Sally's place. We met at the school entrance and walked off. He said he lived in Addison apartments. I only lived a few blocks away in a small house.
We entered the five story building and went up to floor four. It was a quiet building with neutral colors. We entered his apartment and there was a man sitting on the couch.
"Dad this is y/n we're working on a science projected together we'll be in my room" the man waves to me. I wave back and follow Sal to his room.
He sits on his beanbag chair and sit on the floor. "You can sit somewhere more comfy" Sal says. I shake my head 'no'.
"I'm fine" he nods and brings out his work. We started working on our science project for the next couple minutes.
I go to reach for my pencil when my hand glazes Sally's. My cheeks heat up and I look down.
"So-sorry" I stutter again. He chuckles. "It's fine y/n". I look him in his bright blue eyes. A small smile spreads across my face.
"Sally I know I only met you today but" I take a deep breath before continuing. "I like you. You're very kind to me even when I was shy. Oh dear God I sound crazy I'm sorry!" I started rambling.
A pair of cold hands touch mine. I look down to see Sally's hands intertwining with mine.
"I like you too y/n" his voice was sweet. I smile widely to him. We look into each others eyes before the door opened. Mr.Fisher looked at us then our hands.
"Ohhh..sorry supper is ready. Y/n do you want to join?" He asks awkwardly. "Uhhhh....sure I'd l-love to" I stutter once again.
He nods then leaves the room. Sal and I get up hand in hand to walk towards the diner table.
The three of us talk, well more like they talked and I nodded. I really do like Sal and his father is very sweet too.
