Anne's eyes bugged out of her skull.
"Haha, you're funny..." Anne said.
"I'm not joking, I think that I do!" Julie sat up to look at Anne.
"But- you can't!"
"Why not? You like me!" Julie said.
"Well, I don't have a boyfriend !" Anne said blatantly.
"Well, I can be your boyfriend!"
"Wha-" Anne's face started turning bright red. "Th-that's not the point! I'm talking about Hunter."
"Well- I broke up with him," Julie said.
"You did?!"
"Yeah pretty recently actually."
"Why?" Anne asked.
"Well, I got a burst of courage yesterday and finally did it."
"Congratulations?..." Anne said not knowing what kind of reaction she was meant to give.
Julie laughed.
"Thanks, I'm finally free!" Julie said jokingly.
Anne sighed, relieved Julie didn't take it the wrong way.
"So...does that mean that I can be your boyfriend?" Julie said.
"But- don't you think we are talking too fast? I mean we barely started talking again today after so long." Anne said.
"Yeah you're right but I'm willing to take things slow and figure things out with you," Julie said resting her head on the wall while holding a hand out for Anne.
"I'd like that..." Anne said, taking Julie's hand.
They stared at each other for a moment just taking in what had just happened. Everything almost seemed to disappear.
Almost.
"OH MY GOD!" Anne said getting up quickly.
"WHAT'S WRONG?!" Julie said worriedly.
"C'mon!" Anne helped Julie get up and started speed walking across the hall.
"Where are we going?"
"I forgot about May and char-"
As they both turned the corner they saw them sitting down silently.
"Um- were you both standing there this whole time?..." Anne asked shyly.
