Why is Love So Blind?

It's My Project!

As I sat down at my seat, all eyes stared to turn towards me. Did I do something? Is there something stuck on me? "Um... Excuse me, but why is everyone staring at me?" I said embarrassed.

"Em, did you forget about our project? I thought you had it all ready! This is not like you at all!" Said Zander disapprovingly.

"What? I thought it was due next week!" I said very confused.

"Seriously? How could you forget our project? I thought you had it done!" Zander said angrily.

"You know what Zander? It's not our project! It's MY project! I did it, and I'm turning it in... When I finish! You don't deserve to sit back and relax while I'm working on OUR project!" I yelled.

"Em, calm down. It's ok." Zander said calmly.

"No Zander! It is not ok!! I've had it with your whole "I don't care about school" attitude!! I am not doing the project with you, no matter what!" I yelled again.

"Come on Em! Why do you always get mad so easily! I thought you LIKED the old Zander!" Zander said while really emphasizing the word "liked."

"That was before I always got in fights and arguments with him! That's it. I'm leaving! Right now!" I yelled as I started to storm out of the room.

"You don't even have anyone to take you! Plus, it's raining!" Zander retorted.

"I don't need anyone to take me. I'm walking home." I said walking out of the school.

I'm so cold! I should've brought another jacket to school! I'm wet and cold. What a perfect combination.

I've got to sort things out with Zander before our fights turn physical. That would not be good. Sure we used to have tons of physical fights when we were little, but we haven't fought physically since we were 10. I don't know who would win now. I used to usually win, but then he got taller and stronger, so I have no idea now.
