the bell rings and I walk to lunch i sit down at a table with taylor, dylan and, ashlyn. this is the perfect time for me to text kevin. i haven't told the girls yet because i don't want to make it a big deal before i know more.
i send kevin a quick text
to: kev 🤩

3 minutes pass exactly before my phone buzzes

from: kev 🤩

i smile at my phone before going to reply

t-"ambers got a crushhhh"
dylan plucks my phone my my hand
d-"it's guy omg ambers talking time a guy"

dylan's face drops to a frown immediately
as-"what whats wrong who is it?"
t-"kevin? football kevin"
they all have each other looks and i swipe my phone back

d-"no reason" he says and looks up
taylor and ashlyn look at each other and then back at me
t-"girl you can not date kevin"

it's 5th period math class and i sit with quinn in this class i'm not sure what's going to happen since he totally ghosted me over break.
i walk in and take my seat, maybe 3 minutes later i see quinn he looks really cute i'm not gonna lie his brown locks and fluffy and messy and he is wearing a light blue hoodie.
q-"hey blondie whats up"
is he kidding he's just gonna pretend like he didn't ignore me. i shoot him a glance
a-"hi" i say sharply
q-"how was ur day" he coos
a-"it was fine." i snap
q-"oh ok that's good"
I look at him and roll my eyes before looking away
quinn's pov
amber was clearly mad at me i'm not sure what i did but i know how to fix it.
q-"heyy pssst"
a-"what."
q-"Coke or Pepsi" 
a-"huh?"
i know the best why to distract her is by giving her a controversial topic and letting her argue with me. she loves to argue so i hope this will work
q-"coke or pepsi which is better?"
a-"coke."
i know i that in order for this to work i have to disagree with her
q-"no way pepsi for sure"
a-"your crazy coke tastes way better"
q-"definitely not coke tastes like watered down pepsi"
a-"you could not be more wrong right now"
q-"water melon sour patch kids or the regular"
a-"ummmmmm regular for sure"
q-"totally agree"
now i agree with her so that she sees we are on the same side. she shoots a smile at me right before the bell rings.

q-"soooo what are you doing this weekend"
a-"oh i have erm well i guess i have a date"
my heart sinks a little bit and my stomach feels uneasy
q-"oh ok well me and sage were just gonna go to the arcade on Sunday if you wanna come."
a-"sage and i"
q-"what?"
a-"you said me and sage but the correct grammar is sage and i. i'm just saying..."
q-"your such a nerd" i nudge her arm with mine and the skin to skin contact makes my heart flutter slightly
q-"so am i gonna see you there or not?" i smirk
a-"only if your lucky" she says before nudging me back.
