Chapter 12
Its been well weird I guess. For a couple days he wouldn't even look at me, now he tends to sneak a peek every once in a while. Yeah it can get annoying but I'm getting over it. Kassidy moved finally, its been pretty hard. For her last day her and I stayed after for a while with some other kids and we just chilled and took pictures. I don't know how people deal, but I'm slowly getting through it. It's been a week since Kevin and I stopped talking, it's kinda weird not sitting with him at lunch but it's fine I guess. My other friends have been so much happier -
Theres a knock on the door followed by someone telling me to hurry up. I turn of the hot water and jump out. I guess I've been in here long enough. I get dressed in my pjs and throw my hair up in a bun. I walked into my grams kitchen where my laptop was hooked up and waiting for me on the facebook log in page. I logged on then pulled up my skype page changing the thing to online instead of away. I skype called Jasey while opening a new tab for youtube. Once there I searched for a song by Paramore. About halfway through my song I heard the facebook ding telling me I had an IM. I was surprised because that it was John. Since the Jay/Livermore football game I hadn’t really talked to him much.
John: hey u got a skype?
Me: yep
John: can i add u?
Me: nope jk yeah jackalin2010
A couple minutes later I accept his friend request and start skyping with him. After awhile he asked if I wanted to video chat with him, but I politely declined because I was still on with Jasey. After about an hour Jasey and I disconnected and I skype called John because he was still on. We talked about random nothingness and then he asked if I wanted to hear him play guitar, to which I said yes. Over all I thought he was pretty good, and it gave me another reason to like him. Yes I've thought he was cute for a little while but playing guitar really made me start to actually like him more. He got halfway through another song when the call disconnected. I didn't know what that was about, but I'd ask him about it next time he got on. Having nothing else to do I shut down my laptop then went to lay on the couch. I stayed awake for the next hour thinking and smiling about nothing in particular, I was surprised because I’m usually not one to smile and actually mean it I usually just fake it for everyone’s sake. The next day I spent a couple more hours skyping with John even though he was at a friends house. It was pretty cool, and I started to realize that not only did I like him, but he had confessed that he liked me. I had a good feeling about this so I told him that I liked him back. It was so cute. Eventually around four pm my dad called and said he wanted me home so I said my goodbyes then packed up and left. Even though it was sunday and I hate school I couldn't wait to go back so I could see him again.
*The next day*
I got to school and filled Jasey in on everything. Once I was satisfied we both giggled over how much fun I could have since this guy actually said that he liked me back. I hoped that eventually we might get to date but for now I was glad we were friends. I saw John in the hall and got a hug. I loved it how he was so sweet. This day was completely brightened up by him, and I was again actually smiling without force.
