I was trying to think of ways I can approach Jackson tomorrow. He lowkey didn't seem that interested in me but it's worth a shot. So for tomorrow I tried not to be too late but not too early so I could find a spot next to him. I saw a few people walk in. Then more . I was kinda around the corner acting as if I was busy doing something. I finally saw Jackson walk in the lecture room. I walked in like 3 minutes later . Just as I suspected.

The lecture room was set up with rows of tables and like 10 people in the same row per table .

The majority of seats... taken but still a couple left. There was an empty seat next to Jackson. So I non chalantly walked towards that seat.

I sat down not looking at him.

I turned to my left.

"Oh hey , Jackson right ?" I sAid acting like I just noticed him.

"Yeah ... I'm sorry , I actually don't know your name .." Jackson said.  Oh shit.

"Oh you don't remember me asking for your notes ?-" I sAid confused .

"No I remember talking to you yesterday. I just don't remember you saying your name .." Jackson said.

What a relief.

"Oh I'm Scarlett ." I sAid as I smiled.

"Scarlett... cool." He said then looked at his binder. Class was gonna start in 5 minutes.

Then all of a sudden some girl sits on the other side of Jackson.

Great.. gives me less of a chance to speak to him privately. The teacher said we were writing notes . Then I hear ...

"Scuse me but do you have a pencil ?" The girl asked Jackson.

"Uh yeah, here." He said and gave her one.

A minute later I glanced in her bag. I noticed two pencils inside . Ugh. This dumb hoe was trying to speak to him . My jealous ness was kicking in. More than usual .....

They were also having mini little convos during the class. Ugh. He seemed like he was havin a good time chatting with her. I was awkwardly the extra person. And kinda just didn't turn to my right.

I was randomly tapping my pencil on my note book. Then ...

"Scuse me ? Can you be a little quiet ?" That dumb bitch said to me.

I awkwardly stopped .

The teacher was still teaching.

I saw Jackson drawing squares doodling. I filled in an X on his paper and looked away playing around .

He put an O. We ended up playing one round of Tic tac toe unplanned.

I won and drew in a line.

"Thanks for the little game ." Jackson said.

"Haha." I sAid trying to sound cute.

"Hey Jackson... I was wondering if you wanted to hang out after class." That girl said and interrupted.

"Yeah sure ."he said.
Wah this was my last chance but someone took it...
"Oh before everyone leaves ... you guys have one more day here tomorrow till you all go back to your spilt up classes." The prof said.

Good to know... guess I get to see him tomorrow.

I went back to my dorm. And plopped on my bed.

"What's up with you ?" Kass asked.

"Agh for the first time I feel like I'm having so much trouble getting someone attention." I sAid.

"Wow you get everyone's attention... who's the guy again?" Kass asked me.

"Jackson uh Williams or something like that." I sAid as I was staring at the ceiling.
