(Y/N)'s POV

"Okay, I'm definitely doing it today!"

"All right!" I revved myself up as (F/N) cheered me on.

"I'm just going to greet him. No biggie," I shrugged as (F/N) massaged my shoulders.

"Right. You're just saying hello. It's not a big deal," (F/N) added as they went to my back.

I felt my breath hitched when the Grace Field kids arrived at the entrance.

"Don't get cold feet now! You'll be fine!" (F/N) cheered as they looped their arm around mine.

We slowly made our way to the group but were beaten by fifty people.

I let out a sigh as I held (F/N)'s hand.

"I chickened out again..."

"Well... Maybe if we were running shoes tomorrow, we'd have a better chance!" they positively suggested, making me smile.

I instinctively cringed when I heard people started using pet names.

"Aw... Don't worry babe, we can try again tomorrow," (F/N) teased, making me laugh.

"Right... There's always next time,"

I let out a sigh as a bunch of girls surrounded the group, making my heart hurt.

"Don't let it get to you." (F/N) grabbed my hand as we made our way to an empty table.

"Argh..." I groaned as I sank into my hands, "I feel like I'm gonna burst inside..."

"Wow, you really love him, huh?"

"What!?" I sat up with red cheeks, "I-I don't know what you're talking about... It's just a crush!" I defended as I slammed my fist onto the table, making my spoon fly off to the floor.

I let out another sigh as I got up and grabbed it, but someone already beat me to it.

"Is this yours?" Emma asked with an infectious smile.

"Yes, thanks," I smiled back but froze up when I saw Don looking at us.

"Emma! The meeting's about to start!" he hollered, running up to us.

"Oh, right! I completely forgot!" Emma smacked her forehead before running off to the student council room.

Don quickly looked at me and waved with a smile.

"Hey, (Y/N)!"

'Oh, God, he actually remembered me...' I thought, making my brain blow a fuse.

I awkwardly waved back before he left, and (F/N) quickly tackled me in a hug.

"He smiled at me,"

"He smiled at you!"

"He remembered my name,"

"He remembered your name!"

"But I stood there like an idiot,"
