Teenage Love or Is It

Becoming Friends

Mayte

    So during second period I had got into my feelings and just couldn't deal with my surroundings. I needed to escape so I asked the teacher for a hall pass to the counselor office. When I got there to her office I just busted out crying and she let me without saying anything about it. She didn't ask me if I was okay or not. Ms. Spears just let me get it out. When I was done crying she asked me if I needed to go home. Well I couldn't do that could I. Mom would freak out and I would more than likely be put in a luney bin somewhere. So I shook my head and just said I needed  a little cry to get it out. Ms. Spears gave me a note to get back in class and I headed off to fourth period. 

    Yes, I had missed the rest of second and break as well as third period. But it was okay. That meant half the day was over. It was almost lunch when I walked out Ms. Spears office. So I just went on to the dining room and sat down at my normal table. I didn't see him when he came in so I was shocked when I looked up and seen him standing right in front of me. My heart grew wings and started to beat and very quickly. I knew I must have looked horrible at that moment due to all the crying. But I got me to feel better just by saying " Who do you want me to kill?". All I could do is giggle. My heart felt so much warmer and I thought I could see the light at the end of my dark tunnel.

    So when he asked if he could take a seat beside me. I didn't hesitate. He was like a dream or something. Then he asked a really corny question. He wanted to know if we could be friends or at least get to know one another. I didn't know what to say. It was like the cat got my tongue and I couldn't find the words to say anything. I just smiled and nodded. Once lunch was over he escorted me to my next class even though we had not said anything to one another. Just stared. He was a true gentleman what could I say. But before I entered the classroom he slide a note in my hand as he kissed the back of my hand. 

    His lips were soft to the touch. And he made me feel in that moment that I was the only one around. The only one in that hallway. I wanted him to take me right there but the problem was we barely knew each other. He gave me a curt nod with a smirk and walked down the hall to his class. I wondered would I see him again. Or was this just to get me riled up. Now what was I going to do? If he knew my real life, he will definitely run away. I need to make him see that we can only be friends nothing more personal. But first I need to read the note he just gave me. Maybe I will go to the bathroom and read it where no one can see.
