“I’m going to tell him! I’m going to do it! Today is the day!” I shout to myself as I zip through the backstreets in an effort to make it to class on time. The day is warm, the sunshine smiling, and the wind carries my body just right. “Today is the day” I reassure myself once again. It’s been my mantra since I woke up this morning. I tell myself over and over that this is the day I tell him that I love him. Is he popular? Yes! Is he drop dead gorgeous, top of his class, and ripped like a Greek statue? All signs point to “yes.” And there’s no chance someone as ordinary as I could get his attention, yet I can. I did. My reverie is cut short as the chime of the school bell alerts the remaining students that there are five minutes left before …show more content…
Gordon, is actually insulting me. As if there is anyone in this world who’d want a stick to be stuck so far up their ass. But what can I say? He’s in charge here. Being a smart ass here does nothing but delay myself from my ultimate goal today- to finally get my happy beginning with Him of all people. So I swallow my pride, let a smile dance across my lips and say, “Were we all so fortunate Mr. Gordon.” I can see a vein slither across his forehead in his barely-concealed anger.

She 's barely five two, yet has the attitude of a princess mixed with a sailor. But it 's a deserved attitude; nothing like myself, whose only defining quality is the red blaze of my hair. “Yeah you can. You know you 're the best” I say around my noodles. This is how my school day goes by. Such a waste of time and life, both so limited in quantity. But this is a good life for me. This is what I deserve. I 'm on my way from school before you know it. I’m at a jog, when the feeling of hot blood, yet cold muscles hits me. The pounding inside me intensifies unlike anything I 've ever felt, and believe me I 'm no stranger to headaches. But none of that matters. I 'm on my way to meet him, to let him know just how much brighter my world is with him. Just how much better I feel just being around
