Was I crazy for wanting to confess to the school's heartthrob? Well, yes I was but I didn't know that at the time. You see, present me now knows it was a huge mistake but of course I had to do what I just did.
_______________
It was Thursday , last period of the day and I was planning on confessing my love to Johnny. Everything about him is just perfect; the killer smile, the biker jackets, his hot voice, and his smooth light brown hair that I would love to run my fingers through—
Ugh I've been admiring him for a few months now and I think I've developed way more than a silly crush on this boy. It's love alright I know it's love, it just has to be love!

How was I going to confess you're wondering? Well, I'm gonna give him a sweet romantic letter inside an envelope, that has all my love poured into it and hope he gets the message. And no this isn't going to be one of those stupid "hints" , no I'm going to make it obvious that I'm in love with him so that he doesn't get confused.

I giggled to myself like a little girl as I got in bed and tried to fall asleep. It wasn't so easy as I couldn't stop thinking about Johnny. If he accepts my confession, he'll be my first boyfriend!

I woke up the next day feeling stronger than ever! I hoped out of bed and got straight to work. I had already planned my outfit for today and all I had to do was add extra stickers to Johnny's envelope. Before doing that though, I brushed my teeth and took a shower.

After putting on my cute outfit, I wore light makeup and some vanilla perfume to look presentable. I never wear makeup so I had to steal this from my older sister, Shannon. I jumped around my room , lip syncing to "I think were alone now" and danced as I imagined Johnny right here dancing with me.

My party was over when I heard the door snap open, before anyone could enter a single inch into my room, I quickly shut the music off and pretended to fix my hair. 

"What do you want?" I asked , facing the mirror.

"Mom wants you downstairs for breakfast ASAP." I heard Shannon speak in a monotone voice.

"Tell her I won't make it , I have to get to school early—

"Hey, is that my makeup?!" Shannon shouted.

"Uhh—no, well yes! But I swear I'm just borrowing it for today." I stammered.

"The next time you take my stuff without permission...you're history Williams." She looked at me dead in the eye before stomping away.

I rolled my eyes and checked myself in the mirror. I don't even know why she stresses over makeup anyway. She doesn't need it because she already has good looks, no ones even paying attention to her face, they all stare at her body in those short dresses.

I gave myself a pat on the back and throw the envelope into my backpack before picking it up and rushing downstairs.

I entered the kitchen/dining room where the whole house was currently located at. Mom was serving breakfast, dad was sitting down and drinking coffee while reading the newspaper, David was playing games on his Nintendo switch, Hattie and Maddie were in their high chairs babbling to each other, and Shannon was on her phone taking selfies.

As soon as Shannon saw me walk in, she scoffed.

"Mom could you please tell Williams to stop stealing my stuff. She's so annoying and I don't even remember the last time I let in my room!" Shannon whined.

"Honey, sharing is caring. Just let your sister borrow a few things and for Pete's sake pleaseeee stop calling her Williams as if she's some classmate. She's your sister and her name is Jessica." Mom told Shannon firmly.

"Ughhh you always get your way!" Shannon groaned.

I stuck my tongue out at her and mouthed "Nananana booboo". She flipped me off and stormed out the house.
'Well someone's got an attitude problem.' I thought to myself.

"Mom, I can't eat breakfast I have something very important to do!" I shouted as I ran out of the house.

I hopped on my bike and started my path to school, ugh I'm in such a great mood. I can tell today is gonna a good day!

I arrived at school and skipped all the way up to entrance. Barely anyone was in the halls so this was the perfect chance to slip Johnny's envelope through his locker.

I doubled check and the coast was clear. I took out the envelope from my backpack and threw it in without hesitation. I squealed with excitement but calmed myself down shortly after someone had just witnessed me freaking out. I awkwardly waved so they wouldn't think I was suspicious or anything like that.

I rushed to the girls bathroom and waited in there until 7:20 because that's when everyone usually shows up. Then around 7:35-ish Johnny and his friends show up to school.

I walked out the bathroom as soon as I heard screams and cheers. If it weren't for Johnny, the team wouldn't have won last night's game, that's why everyone is cheering. I smiled softly as I admired him from afar; he was high-fiving everyone and talking with his friends. He looked so darn cute.

I waited patiently for him to check his locker, once he does, if everything goes accordingly, I'll come forward after he asks "who wrote this" and say "I did, Johnny, I did" and he will confess his love back to me. I really hope it goes smoothly.

I moved up a little bit, I made it look like I was checking my locker but I was actually still looking at Johnny. Finally, after finished talking with his friends he went up to his locker and entered the combination. He opened it slowly and it looks like something caught his eye. I assumed it was the envelope and I was right. He took it out carefully and examined the front and back.

He took off the sticker and opened it up to find my letter inside, then he proceeded to read it.

"Yo, who wrote this?" He shouted as he held up the envelope in the air.

Everyone shrugged and murmured about who could've given it to him. That's when I stepped in and raised my hand.

"I did, Johnny. I wrote the letter." I confessed as we made eye contact.

He furrowed his eyebrows and looked visibly confused.

"Johnny, I like you, like I like you in a "more than friends" way. I...love you and my heart races whenever I'm around you and I can't stop thinking about you day and night. You're the first guy I've ever admired and I'm so happy it's you!" I confessed to him in front of everyone.

"Uhh well sorry but I don't feel the same way. I never saw you in that type of way and never will. And how could you even like me more than a friend if we were never friends to begin with?" Johnny scoffed as he walked away with his crew.

My heart shattered into thousands of pieces and I felt my eyes begin to water. Everyone was laughing and pointing at me, some had been recording the whole time.

My face was redder than a tomato and I looked down in shame. I had never felt more embarrassed in my life. Oh how much I wanted to take back all those words I said and rip up his stupid letter. So many thoughts we're running through my head, I forgot about reality and didn't realize the bells had already rung. I didn't move from my spot and stayed there until everyone was in class.
