"Tell me!" Her sophomore--now a junior-- from before she graduated pleaded, praying for her cute puppy eyes and pleas to convince her to tell her about him: Her first love.
She's been bugging her for a while now, not stopping until she'll burst and finally tell her everything. She was very childish; despite her being already a third-year. She was already a first-year college; she occasionally comes in the highschool department, especially the club she's been for four years; the dance club.
Should I? The senior asked herself. She remembered the time when her junior told everything about herself, including her encounters with a love team with a certain person for a while now. She snapped out of her thoughts when the said subject repeated again, "Please?"
"Okay, okay. I'll tell you," She finally decided. She exclaimed a shriek of excitement. She sat properly on the floor now, very attentive to listen to her story.
All of the club members went home already, and they were the remaining ones in the clubroom. The hallway was silent, indicating no person was out there.
I guess I should probably tell her now, She said in her mind.
"During in elementary..."Try and catch me!" The boy stuck his tongue out at the panting girl, who was trying to keep up with him. Her eyes lit with determination and never stopped despite her heavy breathing. "I'm really going to catch you this time!" She yelled.
The boy laughed and fastened his pace more. The girl tried to keep up by increasing her speed too. "You're not going to get away so easily!" She said with both determination and glee.

The two ten year olds laid down on the grass, breathing heavily.
The girl grabbed hold of the boy's wrist and said, "Got.. ya!" She said between breaths.
"Unfair! I said time out!" The boy denied and was also panting heavily.
Now it was the girl's time to stick her tongue out at him, "I never said 'okay' to it, right?" She grinned from ear to ear.
The boy frowned deeply, but soon let it go and said, "Fine. You win this time. You got me." He said, defeated
The girl laughed in victory, taking her left energy and stood, making a victory pose. She stuck her tongue out at him again.
The boy just smiled, his dimples showing, and they laughed."I love you," The boy spat out suddenly.
Due to the sudden confession, she blushed furiously. As payback, she hit and hit him and said, "Don't joke with me!" Still blushing.The boy just laughed instead of feeling hurt.
"When he said that, that's when I started to have butterflies in my stomach when I'm with him." She said, recalling all the happy memories of her and her first love.
Her junior shrieked and clapped in joy and excitement. "What happened next? I wanna know more!"
She laughed upon her junior's action. "And then...Upon their teacher's absence, she was assigned to write the misbehaving pupils. The boy was no exception in her list. As punishment, they were told to write their names in cursive form on a whole sheet of paper, back to back.
He was the last one inside the classroom, and the girl accompanied him until he finished. He said again out of the blue. "I love you, Abegail."
Her natural reaction, she blushed furiously and hit him again, just like last time. If he kept going on this way, she'll really fall more and more for him.
Do you really mean it?'
Tha question resided at the back of her mind.
"That has always been in my mind," She said. "It kept haunting me every night."
The junior chuckled. "It's the sign of love." The directed person laughed. "And then?" She laughed again because of her curiousity.
"Then...
