i stare from across the room as he laughs his amazing laugh, his hair moves slightly as he leans back, his eyes glimmer with happiness. yes it's creepy to stare, but who's looking anyway? all he notices is ellie

ellie fucking thumann

she's too beautiful not to fall for, she's sweet and funny and smart. she's a good listener when you need her. she's the cheer captain and the best swimmer on the swim team. she's been class president for three years straight and she doesn't have a mean bone in here body.

so why do i fucking hate her so much?

maybe because she's got him wrapped around her finger.

i can't even get close to him without blushing. fuck! i don't need this right now.

it all started in 9th grade when he wouldn't stop following around, he gushed over me and i guess i couldn't accept the fact that this cute boy wanted me. he was completely and utterly desperate for my attention, but i just kept tossing him to the side like a dead fish

i didn't realize how much i needed his love until the year of 10th grade when he suddenly fell for ellie. now this time i felt like the dead fish, tossed aside and forgotten about. we haven't talked since.

and i guess that's when i started being desperate for his love.

"emma!"

my head jolts toward the right to see hannah staring at me like a crazy person, trying to figure out why i was so dozed off.

"sorry" i giggle slightly putting my head down feeling slight embarrassed. she just chuckles and starts back talking about her weekend, as amanda picks at her nails her head only coming up to sneak glances at grayson.

amanda has had a crush on grayson since sixth grade when he bought her an ice cream because she forgot her money at home. kind of cute if you ask me. but he hardly notices her which breaks my heart for the poor gental girl.

she never talks or gushes about him but you can tell by the fact her face turns red every time he does something cute or stupid, that she is also desperate for his love.

"so emma" i turn my attention back to hannah as she smiles "how was your weekend? you didn't talk to anyone all weekend!"

i just chuckle and look down again "my bed was enjoying my attendance" i smile as she chuckles

"okay class" Mr. Rogers walks in huffing from the annoyance of just being in this hell hole "today we will have partners" everyone smiles and giggles in excitement. everyone looking at there friends getting ready to break off from the class and not do shit.

"but IM choosing them" he smirks, and i find myself enjoying his amusement, i laugh for all the poor people in this stupid ass class.

"hannah and kelly. micheal and ellie. karen and mike. grayson and amanda" i stop listening as my head shoots to amanda my eyes widen and a huge smiles spreads across my face as i see her cheeks turn crimson red as she stares at me with wide eyes, basically screaming for help. all i can do is shrug as i hold back a laugh.

grayson smiles his adorable smile and starts walking over to hannah's empty seat, sitting next to amanda. i almost want to get up and high five the teacher for this amazing partnership.

i sit as he continues to call out names, but when my name gets called, my whole face turns red as i tense up, unable to move as my eyes stay wide

"emma and ethan"
