Why does math class go by so slow?

We currently have five minutes until we can leave this horrid classroom.

Not to be dramatic, but these feel like the longest five minutes of my life.

"Hey, babe" Megan casually says with a smile as she stops in front of my table

Ever since my diagnosis, Megan has constantly been flirting with me. She tried to pursue me once, but I rejected her since I don't like her in that way.

My heart only belongs to one person.

"Belleza, this is my friend, Megan" I say as Megan politely reaches her hand out for a handshake

Belleza's face is emotionless as she gives Megan a single head nod before closing her eyes and leaning her head back.

Megan's eyes widen in realization for a split second before she quickly composes herself and turns towards me.

"Will I see you at cheer tryouts after school?" She asks as she plasters a smile back on her face

"Yep, I wouldn't miss it" I say as a smile makes its way onto my face

"Great" she says before she retreats back to her desk

That was weird.

Does she know Belleza?

Does Belleza know her?

I'm so confused.

The bell finally rings to release us to lunch.

I practically jump out of my seat with a joyful attitude which causes Avery to laugh at me.

"Someone's happy" She teases as she hands me by backpack

"Damn right I am" I state as I grab it from her hand and slip it over my shoulder

Oh shit.

I forgot that Belleza was still here.

I slowly turn around to face her only to see her watching me with an amused facial expression.

"Please, pretend like you didn't hear that" I beg which makes her chuckle

She slowly walks up to me and gazes deeply into my eyes as she slowly brings her hand up to tuck a loose strand of hair behind my ear.

"You're cute" She states

Great!

I'm blushing again!

"Come on, the hallway is mostly clear" I hear Avery say to us from the doorway

When did she get there?!

I silently oblige as I quickly walk out into the hallway and make my way towards my locker. I need to switch out my textbooks so that I won't have to fight my way through the hallway to do it later.

After lunch is when everyone chooses to go to their lockers, well the ones that have lockers.

As I'm in the middle of switching them out I hear someone walk up to me.
