I'm sort of nervous for today.
The school's warning bell rings, signalling that lunch will be starting in five minutes.
My stomachs rumbles, and not from being hungry. I really don't even know why I am nervous. Taylor is just a guy, and I am just a girl who will have a talk, by an oak tree, and OH MY GOSH! I need to stop over thinking things!
I throw my books into my locker, as I turn on my heel I crash painfully into Sam.
" Hey loser." he grins as I poke my tongue he out at him.
" Hey I have to meet someone, so save me a seat."
He raises an eyebrow and gives me a questioning glance. "who?"
I blush and look away. " nobody! Just go save me a seat please."
"Okay, since you said please" he says mockingly, batting his eyelashes.
I laugh sometimes Sam is such a dork.
He grins like a monkey and waves as I lose sight of him in the massive sea of sweaty high-schoolers.

I walk over to the large shady oak tree and sit, Taylor hasn't showed up yet so I pull out my book the fault in out stars.
Hey don't judge me , but I love sappy romances and Ansel Algort is a babe!
Just as I start to get into my book, I hear a soft, deep voice behind me.
" Hey, am so glad you came." Taylor slowly sits down beside me as I put my book away.
" So what did you want to see me about?" I ask softly.
His gaze goes from my face to the ground and he doesn't say anything for a while.
Then he grabs my hand and looks into my eyes.
" Alex I really had a great time with you." he smiles. " You are so funny and beautiful and you make me happy, I wanted to ask you if you wanted to go on another date?"
I stare at Taylor speechless. Nobody has ever called me beautiful before. My heart melts and I have to kick myself mentally, DONT fall for him, love doesn't exist! A little voice nags me on the inside. It's just a date right? It's not like we are getting married. Right??
Instead of saying anything I just nod my head, and Taylor breaks out into a grin.
" Awesome, I really do like you, how about I pick you up Saturday at nine?"
Still there was no words, I slowly croaked out a feeble yes, and I watch as he nods leaving me by the wretched oak tree battling the forever coming thoughts in my head.
