Step 11: "He Gets Happy Around You"

9-13-12

(NIALLS BIRTHDAY OH MEH GAWD)

"Guess what Ms?" I smiled.

"Today's Niall Horan's birthday." I smiled.

She laughed.

"Don't talk to Kevin!" she told me, dead serious.

"Oh! I swear we don't talk like he was supposed to tell you just ask him!" I pleaded.

She nodded and walked on.

When Kevin came in I glared at him.

"You got me in trouble!" I hissed.

"What?"

"She came up and told me not to talk to you! You never told her that it was a lie!"

"Oh. Don't worry I'll tell her." he nodded.

"You better!" I hissed.

I felt bad but I wasn't going to let a teacher hate me because of him.

I started with my journal.

"It wasn't Selena. I was just lying to get moved." Kevin laughed.

I looked up and saw Ms. A nodding.

"So don't blame her it was me."

I smiled.

"Okay." she said.

I smiled.

Kevin sat beside me.

"Good dog." Kevin patted my head as I walked by.

I shoved him.

"Don't call me that." I snapped.

He laughed.

He tapped my arm.

"Oh scary dog!"

I clenched my fists.

"Stop." I stated before looking down.

"Why do you take everything so seriously? I mean I do that to all kinds of other girls and they don't care they laugh back." He asked.

"I'm not other girls." I stated.

~I know those other girls well they're beautiful but would they right a *book* for you?~

See what I did there(:

"I know you're not other girls. Just saying you don't joke around. I'd hate to live like that."

I looked down.

Is that what he thought of me? That I couldn't joke around? Maybe if his homes weren't hurtful...

"Now why you don't wanna talk? Fine." He nodded.

I just wanted to be alone.

He didn't care, I wish I didn't care.

"Pssst." He said.

I couldn't help but smile. he couldn't stand me mad at him could he?

"What is this?" he smiled at me, looking down at the paper Ms. A just passed out.

I looked down.

We're taking a collage survey...as freshman?

This is complex.

(Fifty minutes later)

Kevin sat beside me.

I looked over at his list of Collages, curious.
