Ally, can I....I want to tell you something". That raised an eyebrow.
"Yes,I'm listening."
"Allison, I....I think I like you". I spat out what was in my mouth. Well,that was a shock.
"Wh....what?"
"I like you, Allison. I've liked you since the first...
"Haha,well,I have a feeling something's going to happen today."
"Oh really. "
"Yup. I'll just go and pick up my calculus textbook from my locker. I'll meet you at yours before we go to class"
"Sure"
"Good morning class"
Good morning Miss Matthews"
"I hope you all prepared for today's lesson."
"Yes Miss",half of the class responded
"We'll see whether you did after this pop quiz"
Just great! Note the sarcasm
The quiz wasn't difficult. I had revised it yesterday so hallelujah
-------
We sat at our usual table during lunch Ryan came over to our table and sat on the chair closest to me.
"Hey girls"
"Hi Ryan"
"How's your day going?"
"So far so good",I responded.
"Hey! Ryan",some of his jock friends called him over.
"Okay, I'll see you girls later"
"Sure". He gave me a peg on the cheek and moved to the jocks table.
The bell rang and I quickly finished my apple. I couldn't let it go waste. After all,I needed it for the last lesson. I still don't understand why history was the last period on Wednesdays. Everyone just ends up dozing off.
The day was finally over. I survived another day of school!! As usual,Jenny was going to meet me at my locker.
-----
Today I had no homework so I put all my books in my locker. I was locking it when I heard someone literally squealing. It was Jenny. I mentally face palmed myself. I spotted a bouquet and something else but I couldn't see it quite clearly.
"Allyyyyyy!"
"What's up?"
"Guess what I found in my locker"
"Tell me"
"These!!" She showed me what was in her hands: a bouquet of tulips

"Oh wow",she showed it to me. I loved the cover page.

"You wanna read it?"
"Are you kidding me?" We both laughed
The letter read,
"Dearest Jennifer
I just want you to know that you're the most beautiful girl I've ever met. I haven't got enough guts to tell you my feelings but I Love You
Love, Your secret admirer "
"Oh my God!!!" I couldn't believe what I just read
"I know right"
"I'm happy for you"
"Thanks Allison". She was grinning
"So who do you think it is?"
"I have no idea."
"I'm sure he'll reveal himself sooner or later.'
"I hope it's sooner"
"So you were right when you said this morning that something was going to happen"
"You bet I was"
"Yup. Now,let's go home."
"Yeah"
********
"Who the hell is calling me at this time of the night?" I looked at the time.... 11 freaking 35 pm! Reluctantly, I pick up.
"Hello"
"Ally?"
"Oh Jenny, it's you. Why, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing. I couldn't sleep so I thought of calling you. That's all"
"What's on your mind?"
"I was just thinking,who could my secret admirer be?"
"Seriously!"
"I'm sorry...I'm sorry for ruining your sleep"
"I'm going to kill you tomorrow!! Ok then,since I'm awake now,tell me, who do you think it is?"
"I don't know"
"Ok,who do you want it to be?"
She giggled,"I think Jake,the one on the football team,I think he's really hot.He winked at me the other time"
"Ooooooh, and what if it's not him?"
"Well, Luke, you know,the president of the chess club...."
"Ew,the chess club"
"Yeah,I know,the chess club is full of nerds but Luke is cute.
"Okay, but I have a feeling it's Spencer"
"I suspected him too,but I think Spencer's too shy."
"I don't think so at all"
"He is"
"Let's just wait to find out"
We talked for a while after that and when she finally hang up,it was almost 1 am. I yawned and immediately my head hit the pillow,I was gone.
