"Do you know who I am?" I asked.
"No. But I'd like to."
"Ava Bender."
"Ava,"
He said.
"I like that name.
Ava."
I loved the way
he said my name.
He talked about the game,
and about his old school.
He talked about how moving sucked,
and about being the new kid,
which sucked even more.
I talked about living in the same house
my whole life
with a mom who works a lot
and a dad who travels a lot.
"Tell me something about Ava no one else knows," He said.
"No one?"
I had to think hard
on that one.
"I really hate being alone," I finally said.
"Then it's a good thing I'm here."
That made me smile.
"Now it's your turn," I told him.
"I want to go out with you."
That made me smile
even more.
I couldn't say anything
because my friends came back.
Jackson didn't move.
They squeezed in
on the other side of me.
I introduced them.
They looked at me
like I'd just won
the lottery.
But it was way better
than that.
