The strange boy didn’t just intrigue her, just by finding her, sitting next to her
and joining in on a stupid rhyme she felt better.


More wanted. 

She felt like pinching herself. Why did she need a silly boy to make her feel
wanted? She was a strong young woman who was totally capable of being
independent. She thought girls who pinned their self worth on guys were dumb.
She was not going to be that girl.

“I wish I didn’t feel so alone” she whispered, softly enough that the boy didn’t
hear, at least she hoped he didn’t hear. That would be majorly embarrassing. 

She opened one eye, just to check that the boy was still there. Yup, there he was.
She shut her eye again, took a deep breath. 

She decided her strategy would be to appear cool, calm and collected. He didn’t
know her; it was almost like a fresh start. Even if she did manage to
completely stuff up and embarrass herself, she would be leaving tomorrow so she
could just totally forget about it all.
