#18 - Love and Art

"Shoot!" you curse under your breath as you check your watch. Your 10 minutes late for your lesson and your the other side of the school. You start running and 5 minutes later end up at the art block. You sigh and walk into the lesson just as the bell goes.

You put your art folder on the table.

"{your name}!" Your Best friend shouts across the room, "get us some paint pallets, water and a brush will you?!"

You nod at her and collect the art materials. Water slowly fills up the water pot and you whack the tap as it starts to glug it out slowly. After the harsh whack, the water splurts out and I squeal as cool waters sprays my face. I turn it off hastily, and turn to go back to Kira. Wham! You are slammed to the floor and winded. Feeling like you left your heart behind.

"Oh shoot!" comes a highly recognisable voice from above. "Shoot, Shoot, Shoot!"

You look up to see the handsomely, stressed face of {guys name}, the guy you have a mad crush on.

He puts his hand out for you and pulls you up "sorry!" As you get up, you notice that you have paint and water down your front.

"Argh!" He shouts and you look up. Your best mate has painted his cheek. You squeal as she puts paint in you too.

You look up. Your friend has run to the other side of the class room, and {guys name} has a paint brush in his hands.

"No." you say as you back up to the sink, with all the paint brushes. "please don't," you add as you reach behind for a brush with ready-mix paint on. "please don't" you say again and he hestitates, which is enough for you to bring the paint brush round and paint his cheek pink, in one fluid move.

He looks at you in shock and you take that chance to run away, back to your art work.

You have been working for a while, before a load of glitter falls on your head and your work. You look up to see him standing above you with a pot o glitter.

"Busted." he says and gives you a cute half-smile. Its enough to make you melt and he takes the opportunity to tip more glitter on your head.

"Oi!" you say smiling and take a handful of your head and chuck it on to him. He has his mouth hanging open in shock and glittery hair.

"{his name} and {your name} stop messing about, pack up and you can stay behind afterwards." the teacher shouts across the class and everyone turns and stares. "everyone else pack up!"

You end up with a detention (meaning you get to spend a whole lunch with him!)

But it was all worth it!
