The Shy Girl's Bad Boy (Interracial) ✅

Ch. 63 The Ring

Diane's pov

There were no words said or spilled, just pure awkward silence. Only a few glances at each other and that was all. I was still embarrassed at what I said. As an introvert, if I mess up on something such as speech and remember the awkwardness of the situation or my feeling of awkwardness, it will remain embedded in my mind, forever. I still can't believe I actually stuttered and literally had a melt down right after that. But I was focused on other things. I almost spaced out completely when Mr. Keith was talking to us. I only nodded pretending I was on Earth. As I was stapling papers, I was thinking the whole time. Reading the letter and then- ugh I'll just give you a quick flashback:

 
Yesterday after doing the project with Travis, after he left. I was on the floor, digging through my bookbag, looking for something. I looked at my jacket forgetting about that paper the whole entire day and so I was going to throw it away until something told me to look at it and give it a chance. So when I opened the paper, yoooo I was so surprised.

I never received a- well let's just say that it was a love letter. Cool right? Haha-no.....it's not cool if it's from the person that you literally sat beside in the auditorium! How could I have been so stupid and dumb?!  He was talking about me. But my stupid self just  thought he was talking about someone waaay better than me: maybe someone extroverted? Maybe more personality and doesn't look like a middle schooler? A girl maybe taller than him? No it was me. Thanks for placing me in this situation Chance.

Now I have to figure out how to respond to you without being awkward, I'm sorry but you'll have more of a better chance with someone else. Most likely Travis would scare him off.... wait is that why some of the guys are distant from me? Yes. Man, he is really serious about this. I don't think anyone else wanted me in the first place to be honest. 

But the bigger thing was, when I took out the book that Travis gave me. I noticed something was in it, so I opened the book something fell out and hit my nose, then fell into the softness of my bed. I looked down and saw something glimmering, shining, sparkling. What the? I thought. When I picked it up and saw the object held between my finger and thumb, I gasped. A ring. A ring. ITS A RING!!! 

A silver diamond ring. I looked in the band, '18K' wait...that's not silver. That's literally white gold. Does it fit? It looks so expensive! How much was this? Why did- wait what if this isn't mine? I mean it could've been one of Val's rings that somehow made its way into this book....Yeah I think that's it.

AHHH! THE RING!!! The thought slapped my face, I had it in my pocket the whole time. I took it out, looking at it, "Travis, I think your sister accidentally dropped this-in the book-or something! I don't know. I just found it in the book after you left" I give the ring to him, he smiled and grabbed my hand, sliding the ring on my finger, "That's yours" he giggles. "What? No...wait this is mine?! Stop playing around!" I laugh.

I look at the ring, "....Travis, you didn't have to-" "I wanted to pequena" "Stop calling me that." "Fine then, pequena" I roll my eyes, and hug him. (gurl if u don't shut up and keep the ring)

 We finished stapling papers and brought them back to Mr.Keith. We literally had 45 minutes of nothing to do, we did the papers faster than we thought. Mr. Keith said we could go to the library, just don't get in trouble. It was a slightly quiet walk to the library, "So Travis" "Yeah?" "How did you and Val learn English?" "Well when my family and I moved here we hired a translator and she taught us all English." "Well you sound like a pro at it." "Meh, I still get some words wrong." "Which ones?" I ask, curious, "I kept calling a kitchen a chicken." I laughed, "A chicken?!" "You should've seen me in middle school, it was worse." he chuckles.

We helped out in the library(ironic I'm in the library haha) with some stuff like sorting books out and everything. "Diane can you go to the closet and grab me a pack of printer paper? The printer ran out again" Mrs. A tosses me the keys. I already knew where that was at anyway. I went to the closet behind the desk as Mrs.

Mrs. A was busy with something else with Travis. I opened the closet and looked for the second shelf, not finding the paper of where it's usually at. "Mrs. A the paper isn't here!" "Oh yeah I forgot I had to move it to the top shelf! Can you reach it?" (( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°))

 "Uh, yeah sure!!" I yell back, standing on an upside down crate.

There it was on the top shelf, the stack of packages of paper, I reached as high as I could, with just my finger tips brushing the edges. ( ͡☉ ͜ʖ ͡☉))

OH COME ON! I'M LITERALLY ON MY TOES! AHH WHO'S BEHIN-really now? The brush of his jogger jacket startled me, reaching up behind me, getting the paper with ease. (( ͡⚆ ͜ʖ ͡⚆))"You're really trying yourself are you?" "Si (yes)"

u thought

*click* *click*

should i make a sequel?

1/11/21- there is a sequel but it will be published after this book is done with its editing.

Also I plan on making one more book of this collection. One final book to make it a trilogy, and a maybe a short 2 chapter book in here just for laughs and giggles- A parallel universe, and everything were to be the opposite.  

But mainly a last book- the spot light shining on the children this time! Wait children? Who's children? I think you probably already know lol.

Also when I read through this chapter, it really startled me, like deja vu  kind of startle? I won't say why, I may explain at the end.

But a character existing in real life is really crazy. way too wild o_o
