Beau
I watched as Zeek Sward briskly walked across the cafeteria toward her. Determination written across his face. I couldn’t look away. It was like seeing the train purposely jump the track, inevitably crashing and burning. At least that’s what I thought would happen.
“Thompson,” Zeek starts with a rushed tone. “I know you never say yes to anyone. But I can not take no for an answer. I want- NO, need you to let me take you to the fall formal.”
“Zeek, I admire your boldness-”
“Before you finish, let me tell you why I NEED you to say yes. You see, I’ve been admiring you for the last 2 years. I’ve watched as you have rejected every proposal. I thought to myself, it had to be because she’s into girls. I was devastated to say the least.”
“Zeek-”
“Thompson, until the day I caught you checking me out.”
“I was not!”
“Oh, you so were. You even blushed when you realized I had caught you.” Zeek’s smile reaches from ear to ear. She sat there with a stunned look. I thought for sure she was about to protest, flat out reject him. Then she muttered those five little words.
“Yes, I’ll go with you.”
I don’t know why I suddenly felt this ping in my chest. Sawyer Thompson has always been kind and friendly. I could go as far to say that we are friends. Not close, but friends. She’s pretty in that homegrown southern girl kind of way. Her ash-brown hair falls just past her shoulders framing her round face. Her full lips stained pink from her chapstick and her button nose. Gentle green eyes that light up when she smiles. Sometimes I think I catch glimpses of sadness in them, but it only flickers for a moment.
The bell sounds and I'm stuck standing there stunned. Not only her saying yes, but at my own jealousy. Jealousy? Is that what this is? Could be that burrito I ate for breakfast. No, it’s definitely jealousy. But why? I’ve never even thought of checking her out. But, watching her bend down to pick up her books. Her ass is so perfect. Round in all the right places. What is going on with me. Snap out of it Beau!
“Beau! Are you coming to english class or are you planning on looking at Thompson’s ass for the rest of the day?”
I hear Sam but I don’t see him. “Fuck you dude.” I shout back. I look around only to lock eyes with Sawyer. Dammit, she caught me. She totally caught me lusting after her ass. Fuck now she’s coming this way.
