The next day, I woke up smiling. Oh my gosh, did that really happen? I can't believe he even knows my name. I got dressed and walked to school. "Hey!" Stella called from across the street. I waved back. "Blake, I got some bad news.." For some reason, my heart skipped a beat. "u-uh y-yeah yeah what" "Its...Its about Elijah.." That made my heart beat even faster. "He has a girlfriend." I wanted to cry. No, stop, stop you don't even know him. "Uh yeah...I figured, nobody is allowed to be that cute AND single." I said, not knowing what to say. "That's it? I was expecting a sob show. I guess its good you aren't destroyed over it" "Eh yeah."
*Time flies*
When we got to school, I couldn't help but look at Elijah. Not in a weird way, just in a sad way. "You should sit next to him." Stella said with a smile. "Uh that'd be we-" I was cut off. "Hey kids." Elijah came from the front of the room and sat next to me and Stella. "Hi." Stella shifted away. "UH MISS MILLER? CAN I USE THE BATHROOM?" Stella hopped out of her chair and "Went to the bathroom". But before she was out of the door completely, she stuck her tongue out at me. "Son of a-" I turned around to look at Elijah who was now holding back a laugh. "I swear I'm going to kick her...Posterior." He smiled. "Just don't forget to tie your shoe." I blushed. "That never happens, just that one time." "Oh so you made sure your shoe wasn't tied cause' I was right there?" "WHA NO-" "I'm kidding." He smiled again.
*Time flies*
The bell rang and we ran. "Sit next to me." Elijah told me. I nodded. "So like are we friends now?" I asked. "I hope." He said. I felt butterflies in my stomach. I smiled, and he smiled back. At lunch, we just sat and joked around the whole time. After a couple minutes, his smile faded. "You okay?" "Yeah Its just- me and my girlfriend got into an argument and I think I'm gonna break up with her." AHHHH WHAT? "Oh, I'm sorry to hear that" I said. Hehe but not really. "Its fine, I like someone else anyway." How much you wanna bet its not- "Can I tell you something?" "Uh yeah." I don't think its- "I like you, but this isn't like our first time meeting. Remember your friend that transferred in 2nd grade?" "THAT WAS YOU? THAT WAS SO LONG AGO I DIDN'T EVEN REMEMBER! YOU'RE MY BEST FRIEND THEN!" We both shot up and hugged each other. "I missed you skoop." "I missed you Ice cream." Yeah, I know its a stupid name but it was cute.
