Why is Love So Blind?

Stupid Doodles!

As we got into math, we were surprisingly not late yet. So we all got to our usual seats. Kayla and I together, and Al and her boyfriend, Logan, right across from us.

Logan was one of those good boys that were sweet, and kind, but he was waayy too nice. He was cute with his brown shaggyish hair, and he was tall! But definitely not my type. He was actually very talented, and one of his many talents were singing! Al and Logan would always sing together. It was cute, but disgusting.

Anyway, we were in math, as usual. Ever so bored. Except for Kayla, the “nerd” of our little “possy,” I guess you could call it that. Then I noticed Logan and Al passing notes and “giggling.” GROSS! But hey, that’s love, right? So once again with nothing to do, I started doodling in my math book.

“Em, what are you writing? Do you want the whole class seeing that!” Kayla whispered. Very not like her.

“I was just drawing... Oh crap. No one can know I like Zander! It would ruin my life! FOREVER!” I said as I was trying to copy Kayla’s notes...

“Hey Em, whatcha drawing there? I’m so bored!” whispered Zander from a completely different side of the room.

“Oh, hey Zander. I’m bored too!” I said as I was trying to cover up my embarrassing doodles. What was I thinking? Drawing in math where Zander can see my entire math journal! So not sneaky of me!

“Are you going to show me what you were just drawing, or do I have to take it from you. Just like when we were little.” Zander said as he smiled that killer smile that always made me want to tell him how I feel about him.

“Nope, It’s a secret! I might just show you when we go home!” I said to him laughing. A lot of people might get the wrong idea when I say that. He just drives me to school, and back everyday cuz he has his license and I didn’t, and we lived really close to each other.

“Can I just see it now?” He said as he started to reach for my book.

“No, you cannot see it now! Quit being such a baby! You’re going to get us in trouble!” I whispered loudly as I laughed even harder. He was just so funny. Any girl could fall for him in seconds of just seeing him. Probably why the most popular girl in school was dating him. Stella, she was what every girl could only dream of being. She was pretty, smart, the captain of the cheerleading squad, and oh, did I mention pretty? I could never be in her position. Sure I was a cheerleader, but I was nowhere near as “enchanting” as her!

“Hey Em? Earth to Em!” Whispered Zander with his sleepy voice.

“Oh sorry Zander, I was off in “Lala land” Again.” I said as I made air quotes around “Lala land.”

“You are so funny Em! How could you not be dating someone yet?” Laughed Zander

Easy for you to say! I always turn guys down thinking that I can have a chance with you some day! I said in my head. I can't believe Zander has no idea! Boys are so clueless.

" Zander go away! You always bother Em during class! If you guys keep flirting, then we're all going to get in trouble!" Logan loudly whispered as he put his arm around Alyssa making her giggle.

"We-, we were not flirting! And Zander already has a girlfriend!" I stammered, clearly blushing.

" Come on dude! Relax a little! It's just math!" Zander said as he smiled at me, making me laugh again.

DING DING!! Class was over! Finally.
