Just a Stupid Crush • Zach Herron

seventeen

monday

currently i'm sat in maths class staring at the back of zach's head. for some reason everything is back to how it used to be: me liking zach and him ignoring my existence

at least he knows who i am

i'm just annoyed since he was starting to actually act as we were maybe friends? i don't know but whatever it was, it's now over

he hasn't even turned around and ask for answers like he would usually do in-fact he hasn't even looked in my direction from the moment i first saw him this morning

"jasmine can you tell me the answer?" my head shot up to the board and i quickly looked at the question, luckily i knew i'd end up daydreaming so i did these questions earlier incase

"48.6 recurring" i replied praying it was right "correct, well done" i smiled and looked at the back of zach's head, if he was still like how he was last week he would've turned around and done some sort of face towards me when i got it right

but he didn't and he wasn't that person anymore

maybe it was for the best? maybe we just aren't friends or anything more than that at all

i still like him though

~~~

me and alexia stood up from our seats when we heard the bell that signalled the end of lunch and we headed to our next lesson which is english

"so zach's in this lesson isn't he?" alexia said as we walked our way through the corridors "yeah, i mean i threw a book at him remember"

"i couldn't forget that" alexia said while laughing "yeah if only that plan had worked" i said

"it kinda did, i mean he knows who you are doesn't he?"

"yeah but now he's ignoring me again" i said and we arrived at english, the teacher wasn't there yet so we stood outside the class "i'm sure he'll stop ignoring you again soon"

alexia went over to daniel who was also already at english and i followed her, standing next to her while she talked to him

both of them went red during their conversation, how cute

i felt a slight presence next to me while i was stood next to alexia so i looked to my side only to see zach stood there

oh hand me my holy water! he was stood really close to me so i low key shuffled a little closer to alexia in order to create a gap between me and zach

daniel must've noticed zach stood next me because he said "oh hey zach i didn't notice you there!"

zach didn't look or speak to me but he knew i was there

he must've done?

during their conversation i heard daniel ask "how's kay?" and zach replied with "she's annoying me a lot lately"

hmm maybe he'll break up with her again?

"did you hear that zach said kay's annoying him, maybe they'll break up?" alexia whispered in my ear and i nodded "i was just thinking that"

~~~

it's about halfway through english class and we've been assigned a group class project

it was to work our way through an extract of jekyll and hyde and create a concept of both jekyll and hyde

we had to stay with who we were sat next to to do this but also join up with another pair

i was next to alexia so that's good

then i saw daniel walking over towards us

"hey can we join up with you two?" he asked, alexia looked at me and i smiled in approval because i knew she would want to go with daniel

only slight problem is, he sits next to zach so he's in our group too now

well this is gonna be a bit awkward
