Elle watched him go. Griffin, one of the hottest, tallest, most popular guy in school was two lockers away from Elle's best friend, Charlotte (Charlie). Elle just stared blankly, until he looked at her. Then she looked the other way, as her face reddened. He just shook his head, and pulled his backpack on his wide shoulders. His sandy-brown hair looked almost exactly like Ryan Sheckler's, and his brown eyes were wide and mystical. He wore an Abercrombie shirt, which was the seventh grade's favorite store this season. He was single, and Elle had written anonymous love note earlier in the month. Charlie saw Elle staring, and just rolled her eyes.
"Will you ever get over him? He is so not worth your while."
"Char, I don't need your crap right now. Please."
"Well, fine then. I just don't want you to be crushed by your own crush."
Elle could never give up her crush. She would stare at him from time to time. In choir, she would watch Griffin and his best friend, Graham, mock singing, and make everyone laugh. She listened to that sexy laugh of his, and would melt whenever she saw him. He had her number on her cell phone, so they were acquaintances. He was 5 feet 8 inches tall, and she was 5 feet 3 ½ inches. They were a little out of proportion, but height doesn't matter.
Elle sat on the eighth seat on the bus, and watched him rock out to his iPod. He had his phone out too, and was obviously texting Graham. The shut his phone and started to rock out again. The little beep her phone made startled her. She had one text from Griffin. She took a look at it.
Griffin: Hey Graham, I caught the creeper (Elle) staring at me in choir again. Isn't she weird!?
Elle was hurt. She was considered 'The Creeper' by her crush. This was so hurtful. She started to tear up. She stared out the window, and avoided looking at him. When Elle got off at the bus stop, she ran home, and locked herself in her room. She grabbed her diary, and ripped all the pages out that she wrote about Griffin in. She lay on her bed, and stared at the ceiling. She dozed off until her mom called her for dinner.
