Gabriella's POV
I got up at the end of biology and looked up at Mary who was shaking her head.
"What?" I said.
"Nothing, it's just that my best friend has a huge crush on her." She said looking over at Elena
I bit my lip. "That I do."
She nudged my arm and pushed me a little towards her. "Go talk to her Gabriella."
I looked at her and turned around then turned around again. "I can't"
"Yes, you can."
"I'll scare her off."
"You won't. But I have to go though."
She walked off. I gathered up my stuff and started to walk out.
"Wait Gabriella" she ran up to me.
I turned to face her and smiled at her "Hello Elena."
"Now where are you heading?" she asked
"Web design, you know where it is?"
"Of course, it's my third period class. Come on I'll walk you."
She grabbed my arm. I giggled and blushed walking beside her.
"So," She said "tell me how long you had this crush on me."
"Actually, for a very, very long time" I blushed and looked down. "And please call me gabby."
She smiled at me. "Alright, Gabby it is."
We stopped at the door.
"If you want I can come get you and walk you to history." Elena said
"That'll be nice."
"Then wait for me. I'll be right here shortly after." She smiled
I smiled at her "I'll wait for you."
I walked into my class.
I waited for her. She came up behind me whispering boo making me jump
"You ready?" Elena asked
"Mhm lets go."
I grabbed her hand and looked at her.
We walked into the class.
"Sit next to me?" she said tapping the chair.
I sat down. "So how long have you known i had a crush on you?"
"Actually, for a while now" I blushed with her.
"Really?" I was kinda shocked that she knew.
"Yeah, it was kind of obvious Hun." she smiled just then the teacher came in cursing about something
"After noon class" He grimaced
"Afternoon Mr. Dior" the classed replied
she pulled out my notebook and wrote something down and passed it over to me
"So, I might as well make the first move. Seeing as you're so shy… So do you want to go see a movie sometime? This weekend, maybe?" i read the note and wrote something down
And passed the notebook back
"I'd love to. Either Sunday or Friday, I can't Saturday because it's my brother Derrick's birthday party"
"Alright, Friday it is. What time do you want me to pick you up?"
"Seven work for you?"
"Sounds perfect, I'll pick you up at seven then. Question, do you have to be home at a cretin time? If not after the movie we could go to the Arcade or something."
"I have to be back at eleven. But I can try talking my mom into midnight"
Mr. Dior cleared his throat and looked at us
"Sorry Mr. Dior" she sighed closing my notebook and looked at me and smiled.
I smiled back
The rest of class went by quickly
she grabbed my things and then my hand
And we walked out.
Elena's POV
The bell rang and I gathered my things.
June was already standing "So, are you going to talk to her or not?"
I looked at her standing up holding my books to my side
"Yes I am." I said taking a step passed her
"Good, let me know how it goes alright?" June said giving me a quick hug
"I will, now go or you'll be late"
She nodded and disappeared
Now to find Gabriella I looked around she was already out into the hall
"Wait! Gabriella!" I said running up to her
She turned around and smiled at me "Hello Elena."
"Now where are you heading?" I asked her
"Web design, you know where it is?" she asked
I nodded "Of course, it's my third period class. Come on I'll walk you."
I said taking her arm she giggled and blushed every shade of red there was
"So" I said walking with her "Tell me how long you had this crush on me."
"Actually, for a very, very long time" she blushed more and looked down. "And please call me gabby."
I smiled at her "Alright, Gabby it is." We stopped in front of door for web design
"If you want I can come get you and walk with you to history." I said biting my lip hoping she'd say yes
"That'll be nice." She said
"Then wait for me. I'll be right here shortly after." I smiled
She smiled back "I'll wait for you." And she walked into class
I smiled even bigger and skipped off to my next class
It went by quickly the second the bell rang I nearly ran out
I saw the pretty crimson color of her red hair before I saw her face
She was standing outside the door books in hand she turned and faced the other way
I guess he was talking to a friend but I quickened my pace and came up behind her
"Boo" I whispered she jumped
I giggled "You ready?" I asked her
"Mhm lets go." She said
She grabbed my hand and looked at me I smiled and shushed the little voice in my head that squealed.
We walked into history still hand in hand I'm sure people wear looking but in all honesty I didn't really care if they stared or not
I took my usual seat by the window
"Sit with me?" I asked tapping the back of the chair
She sat down and placed her books down in front of her
"So how long have you known I had a crush on you?" she asked me looking down at the cover of her book tracing the letters with her index finger blushing slightly
"Actually, for a while now" I said blushing with her
"Really?" she seemed slightly shocked about the fact I knew
"Yeah, it was kind of obvious Hun." I smiled just then the teacher came in cursing about something
"After noon class" He grimaced
"Afternoon Mr. Dior" the classed replied
I pulled out my notebook and wrote something down and passed it over to Gabriella
"So, I might as well make the first move. Seeing as you're so shy… So do you want to go see a movie sometime? This weekend, maybe?" she read the note and wrote something down
And passed the notebook back
"I'd love to. Either Sunday or Friday, I can't Saturday because it's my brother Derrick's birthday party" she had very pretty handwriting. I wrote back quickly
"Alright, Friday it is. What time do you want me to pick you up?"
"Seven work for you?"
"Sounds perfect, I'll pick you up at seven then. Question, do you have to be home at a cretin time? If not after the movie we could go to the Arcade or something."
"I have to be back at eleven. But I can try talking my mom into midnight"
Mr. Dior cleared his throat and looked at us
"Sorry Mr. Dior" I sighed closing my notebook and looked at Gabriella and smiled at her
She smiled back
The rest of class went by quickly
I grabbed my things and Gabriella's hand
And we walked out
Gabriella's POV
We walked out hand in hand, people looking at us like they have never seen two girls holding hands before.
We walked out to her car. She leaned on it and pulled me a little closer.
"You don't have to go home yet, do you?" she looked at me with her Grey eyes.
"Not until five o'clock"
"okay, good." she smiled at me.
"mhm." I smiled back and looked around then at her.
I saw Mary walking towards us.
I looked down then up at her.
"What is it Hun?" she asked playing with my fingers
"My best friend is coming."
"Who? Mary?"
"Yeah."
I let go of her hand as soon as Mary approached.
"hey bestie."
"hello, best friend."
"Hi, I'm Elena." she held out her hand.
Mary grabbed her hand. "I'm Mary, Gabriella's best friend. I've heard about you" I started blushing.
Elena grabbed my hand again.
"Well, anyway Gabby, we're heading down to Mr. Scoops to get some ice cream." Mary said
"Okay."
"Your mom needs your help tonight." she stated like I didn't know that.
"It is his birthday in four days."
"Do you need any help?"
"Actually, I'll call you if I do."
"Okay, I'll be around"
"okay."
She hugged me and left.
"I got to go help my mom"
"you need a ride?" she looked at me and smiled
"that'll be lovely." I smiled at her
we got in her car.
"So, you have any sisters or brothers?"
"Yes, One brother and one sister, twins actually. Chase and Casey are 5 and a half."
"I always wanted a younger sister." I looked away.
"And you only have a brother?"
"yeah, I'm the youngest, my dad died when I was eleven.."
"that must be hard."
"I miss him at times…" I looked down as we stopped at my house.
She looked at me.
Don't cry. Don't cry, I told myself.
She grabbed my hand and squeezed it. "Just think of me."
I smiled at her. "Only if you don't mind…"
"I don't" she smiled. I started blushing.
"Fuck, I'm late." I got out and turned to look at her.
"You want help?"
"Sure, I'll show you around."
She got out and walked around the car.
"One more thing, my mom has no clue I'm gay. .I never told her."
"I won't say a word."
"I will soon." I said promising myself this time.
She grabbed my arm and led me to the door. I blushed again.
"That will do"
I giggled. "It's not my fault I always blush."
"Its cute though."
We walked through the door.
"Mom I'm home, and Elena is here."
She popped into the hall.
"Well hello Elena, I'm Gabriella's mom or Miss. Bell."
Elena nodded. "Nice to meet you, Miss. Bell"
"I'm going to show her what we have to do, go to work"
"behave." my mom said walking out the door.
"I will"
I grabbed her hand again and ran upstairs.
We ran into her room and she closed the door.
She looked at my walls that were covered with posters and drawings and where there wasn't a poster, or drawing, light purple peeked out at you
"Wow." she said looking around stopping and looking at each drawing. I looked over at her.
"Did you draw all of these?" she asked not even looking away from them
"Yeah, well all but for a few." I said
she looked at me "there really good" she smiled "I draw somewhat myself, But nothing like some of these."
"Thanks" I said blushing, hell I couldn't help it.
She sat on my bed as i turned on my stereo flipping through the radio stations. I stopped listing as a song came on.
"I love this song!" she almost screamed as "Dirty Work" by Halestorm came on.
"You do too?" i asked turning it up. She nodded and started to sing along.
i sang with her as we danced around her room together.
