Every girl in school wanted to date a football player plus if he was popular which Marco was . I had one class with him that's was biology i was crushing on him but i believed he liked me back because he would look back at me and smile then i would be blushing .

One day in biology class we was doing a project and you needed a partner I usually be partners with Stacey but that day Stacey was not at school that day so i had to look for a partner i looked around looking for a partner then i see a hand waving i turn and it was Marco he said aye come here then, i walked over to where he sat at and he said hey you want be my partner i said sure then i sat down then he asked was i smart i said smarter than you Marcos was a senior I was a junior .
