Toni held her breath at how forward she was being, she didn't want to push too hard but at the same time she couldn't help herself.

Cheryl froze Toni thought she was 'gorgeous' she didn't know how to respond. How could she explain she was single because she wasn't into guys, no one knows and this secret could ruin her life.

Cheryl
I'm not interested in any guy at school. Anyway I'm not exactly the most lovable person.
