The Announcement Nasme POV: It was the 4th period of the day. I was excited and nervous all at the same time. What was Nolan’s surprise? Why was I so happy about it?  You can’t forgive him that quick. He’s only going to be mean to you at home anyway. It’s going to be hard to hate Nolan. He was so sweet when he wanted to be. Even though I know It’s an act I can’t help but hope that he really cared for me. Before I knew it a knock came to the door. It was Nolan. “Nasme, Nolan's here for you.” The teacher called.  I grabbed my bag and stood up. All of my classmates were staring. The girls were snarling at me. At least that’s what it seemed like. I was at the door now. “We’ll all be watching!” My teacher said with excitement. I walked out the door and Nolan was there smiling at me. I smiled in return. “Hey, Babe…” He said, wrapping his arm around me. He took my bag from me and guided me to his locker. “Where is the interview going to be?” “In the media center. The room where they record the morning announcements. News channels will also cover this interview once we send it to them.” He said putting both our bags in his locker. Nolan held my hand as we walked to the media center. When we got there the room was already set up and ready to go. There were 3 people in the room, which were all boys. “Hi, I’m Darnell. I will be interviewing you guys.” The boy with jet black hair said as he held out his hand. “Nice to meet you.” I said, shaking his hand. “ Wow, you're gorgeous just like everyone said.” Darnell said with a huge smile on his face. “Who is everyone?” Nolan said, stepping up. He really could be so intimidating. “You know, just boys around school.” Darnell said awkwardly. “Anyway, we should get set up.” I said pulling Nolan back beside me. Darnell and the other boys got us mic'd up and told us where to sit. The room was set up like a talk show with couches and everything. “This will be live so you might want to be careful how you answer the questions. We are starting in 5 minutes to be prepared.” Darnell told us. One boy with blonde hair was controlling the cameras, and another boy with chestnut hair was working on the lighting. “Are you nervous?” Nolan said. “Kinda but also excited.” I said smiling. We were sitting very close on the couch. He had his arm wrapped around my shoulder and I rested my head on his chest. It was peaceful and it felt right. It makes me sad that when we get home everything's going to be back to normal. “I miss this...talking to you. Laying in bed with you, even though it was only during the storm.” I looked up at him and smiled. He put his hand under my chin and leaned in to kiss me. I wish we were really together. I wish he loved me. But that’s all they are, wishes. I pulled back and looked at my thighs. Good outfit choice. “We are airing in 30 seconds, everyone get into position.” Darnell said sitting across from us on his couch. “...5, 4 , 3 , 2…” The cameraman counted down “Today we are interviewing Nolan Cane and his Fiance, Nasme. As we all know they are engaged and will be married after graduation. There have been some rumors going around school and we're going to make sure to clear it up in this interview. Let's start with some questions for Nasme. How did Nolan propose to you?” Darnell started the interview. “We were on a date actually. We took the jet to Paris for a few days. It was a romantic getaway, he took me to my favorite restaurant, we went shopping, and we went to a lot of different places. On the last night of the trip while we were having dinner he proposed. It was so romantic! We had the whole restaurant to ourselves because Nolan rented it out. I honestly wasn’t expecting him to propose.” Nolan stared at me as I talked. Of course I just made all that up. “Very romantic indeed. Some people wanted to know, what influenced your clothing style? Everyone wants to know, your outfits are so cute.” “Umm… I think my clothing style just matches my personality. When I’m picking clothes I just pick things that I like whether they're trendy or not.” “Everyone wants to know if you guys are a real couple or are just marrying for convenience?” Nolan decided to answer this one. “Our relationship is very much real. I am deeply in love with Nasme and she is the only woman I want to be with.” He looked down at me and I looked up. He gave me a peck on the lips and turned back toward Darnell. “Now that you say that we should address the rumors. Is it true that you have been having relations with other girls even though you're engaged to Nasme?” “Those rumors are completely false. Yes, I had girls over but we never did anything. I invited them over on a friend basis. I was trying to make Nasme jealous by having them in my room but I never cheated on Nasme with anyone. If those girls are telling you that they are lying. Nasme is the one for me.” “Why were you trying to make her jealous?” “To prove a point. Nasme thinks I shouldn’t be jealous when she hangs out with her guy friends. I wouldn’t say that I’m that jealous, I just don’t want her to hang out with any other guys. Turns out she doesn’t like when I hang out with other girls either.” I rolled my eyes at this. I mean he isn’t wrong. “Ok back to Nasme. We know that you're from Texas and you're biracial. Everyone around school is saying how they love your curls.” “Yes I get that a lot. Trust me it takes a lot to take care of curly hair. But yes I am biracial, half African american and half Caucasian. " "All the boys are raving about you being the most beautiful girl in school. Nolan is one lucky guy. it was nice to get to know you Nasme and more about your relationship with Nolan. Until next time.”  Darnell said, shaking our hands.   Then the interview was over. Me and Nolan left the media center with his arm around my neck. The bell was about to ring but no one was in the hall. Nolan gave me a kiss on the cheek. "You did so well. How did you come up  with how I proposed to you so fast?"  "I just told him what I wanted to happen. "  Nolan backed me up to the lockers. He wrapped one hand around my waist, and one against the locker beside my head. Just as the bell rang and everyone started to rush out of their class, he started passionately kissing me.
