I was just sitting there. Admiring his curly, floofy, brown hair, and his big, sparkly, brown eyes. Who am I talking about? Oh yeah, Elijah. I know it might be stupid to like someone you don't even talk to, but did I really like him? What is this feeling then? "Earth to Blakely?" my friend Stella asked. "uh yeah." I blinked and I could have sworn I saw him glance at me. "You okay Blake?" Stella questioned. "Yeah, Yeah i'm fine...Just..." I didn't bother finishing my sentence. I looked over at the clock. Only five more minutes. After a couple minutes of silence, the teacher stood up. "Okay, For homework, finish reading the article on page sixty five and annotate." Then, everyone got up and rushed out the door. While I was on my way, I tripped on my shoe lace, sending my flying forward. I stuck my hands out to stop me from falling, but I guess I didn't need to. "Whoa, careful kid." I unscrunched my face only to see that the one and only, ELIJAH, was holding me up by my hands. "Uh my bad." He chuckled. "No you're good." We found ourselves staring into each others eyes, smiling awkwardly. Then we both blinked and he let go. I stumbled forward but found my balance. He chuckled again and kept walking. Before he got to far, he swung around to face me. "Blakely right?" I nodded. He smiled softly and walked backwards before turning back around. I like when he smiles.
