i sat in the circle next to my friends. the new teacher describing the activity we were about to do. i glance down at the wooden floor going over the lines until i hear whispering calling out for me. "y/n." i look around three places away from me and see y/bff/n trying to grasp for my attention. i raise my eyebrows letting her continue. she quiets down looking toward the teacher before looking right back at me. gilbert. her eyes going on the direction of the boy. i point to the girls beside me. the hush whispers flowing through and through reaching me. "gilberts trying to get your attention."
i blush feeling warmth and possibly pink. i look to the boy and see he is already staring back. he waves a hand which i return with an awkward smile, before looking away and back onto ruby who is now standing.
butterflies erupt in the pit of my stomach.
i daze out in my own thoughts confused about the whole interaction. if you can even call it that.
we were dismissed from class, and am now heading home. a place where i can go and think. in silence.
i spoke too soon.
up ahead of me is the boy who i've been thinking about. "y/n." he greets stepping closer my way. "gilbert." my voice quiet feeling the nerves resurface. he looks amused and i question him, "why do you look so smug?"
"you're bright red."
my eyes widen and i begin to walk past him. feeling even more embarrassed. a hand holds me back turning me, coming face to face. "i uh," he lets go and runs his hands up and down my arms. i feel comfort in his touch before it is taken away as his arms lie limp beside him. "i wanted to ask you something." he shuffles around running a hand through his messy hair.
"go on." i say telling him to continue. he takes a step back. i take in a deep breath not knowing where this was going as he follows after me.
"i have a crush on you." he says, and i take in his words.
"that's not a question." i laugh making light of the moment. "i do too." as my word a leave my lips his lips turn up words into a wide smile.
"what i wanted to ask was, if you would like to go on a date with me?" he asks and that's when i feel my heartbeat increase, afraid it might explode.
"yes." i say
a/n
