Friendzoned

Chapter 2

I have no idea who to chose for vice president. I asked eveyone that i actually know in the club weather they want to be and none of them want to. The other people are just not acceptable enough. I'm going to have to ask the teacher for an extenstion. Incase one change their mind. I haven't asked Cole though. But I know he won't be interested.

I have to stay after school today to work in the library because the wifi at my house broke down.

I walked to my locker to get my stuff for the last period. Everyone probably already left to the cateen. I have no idea where Ashley is.

As I walk to the lockers I see Cole sitting infront of his locker with his laptop on his lap. I tried to walk as quietly as possible so it doesn't bother him. Even though nothing really seems to bother him.

My locker is 3 away from his. As I walk close to my locker. He looked up. His mouth moved a bit. It looked like he was about to say something then he just looked back down. I tried to be quick with my locker but I'm too neat to shove all my books in. It took me about 3 minutes to get everything sorted.

After I finished I grabbed my kit and locked my locker. I looked back down at Cole and he was still in the exact same position.

I walked to the bathroom to clean myself. I took my comb out and combed through my not that messy hair and I re-applied some mascara and powder just so I look at least a little freasher. Then I re-applied my lip stick and sprayed on some perfume and walked out.

As I walk out I was trying to zip up mu kit bag. I wasn't looking so I don't know where I was going. I walked closer to my locker and accidentally kicked Cole because he was so close and I didn't see him.

"Sorry" I said and quickly put my kit back in my locker and walked away as fast as I possibly can.

"Are you on regular bus?" Ashley asked me.

"No, sorry"

"What?! Another club?"

"No. I need the wifi in the library"

"Oh. ok. Well I guess I'll see you later?"

"Yeah. Sorry"

"Bye!"

"See ya" I said and closed my locker.

As I walk to the locker.

"Ellie! Ellie!" someone shouted for me. Who could it be?

I turned around, turns out it was Deric. Oh my god.

"Ellie, uh, you are president of the school newspaper club right?"

"Yes" I said and I can see someone looking at me and Deric. I think it's a he. He just stood there and looked. But there was no way I'm taking my eyes off Deric right now.

"Cool. Well my team is having a game next weekend and I'm wondering if you guys can make an article about it?" Oh my god he looks so gorgeous right now.

"Uh..maybe. We havent' really started. Besides if you want an article you have to organize a talk with the president about what you want it to be etc." I can see the staring figure walking away.

"But you are the president" Oh yeah.

"Oh yeah. I'm a new president. Sorry"

"So uh..give me your number. Maybe we can meet up this week and talk about the article" No. I have to confirm it with the teacher first.

"Sure. No problem." I said as I give him my number. :) :)

I walk to the library and tried to study. I couldn't focus at all. I can ony think about when Deric is going to call and what we are going to talk about at the meeting and where would it be and how do I dress for it.

I checked the clock again. I have 30 minutes left. Shit.

I quickly typed out my research books into the citation websites.

"Hello" some boyish voice behind me said.

I turned around to see Cole. He was standing in his black shirt and black jeans wiht his hands in his pocket. His brown hair is covering his eyes.

"Can I borrow your printing card?" he asked.

"Uh...sure." I said as I look for my wallet. I found it and took out my lunch card and handed it to him.

"Thanks" he said.

I got back to my assignment and after a while Cole returned with the printing card

"Thanks" he said again

"No problem" I said. As I took it our hands brushed past. There was a sudden warmth that rushed through me. His hands were the warmest hands ever.

"Your hands are cold" he said and walked away.

Wha?

I walked on the aisles of the bus and realized I was the first one to get there. Which means I get to pick a seat. Yay.

I picked the 2 seats-seat in the back.

As time passed by, I more people got on. No one had to share a seat with me yet.

I see Cole walk in. He looked at me for one second and looked away. As he walked closer, he looked at me again. And he looks like he is going to say something.

"Hey. Have you picked the VP for school Newspaper yet?"

"No. I asked everybody. No one wants to be one"

"You never asked me."

"I knew you wouldn't be interested"

"But I am"

"Oh. ok. I'll put you in then"

"Okay" Thanks?" he said and sat in the seat 2 rows behind me. I turned around to look and caught his eye. He looked away. So I did too
