Okay...I've had this sitting in my Kacy folder a few days now...the first chapter (if you can call it that) of Why I Hate Kevin Lucas. I changed it from my original format with the chapters being told in alternating POVs, and now it's one chapter per thing she hates about him, except this first one, because it's kind of a prologue. Kinda lame, I know, but it's easier for me to get in Macy's head. Because I'm a clumsy, crazed fangirl, not a teenage boy guitarist with awesome curly hair. Maybe the next story I think up will do the alternating POV.

Dedication: To Hey-Hayley, because we're awesome enough to have two PM chains going at once.

Why I hate Kevin Lucas:

1. His smile. It makes me act like Stella does when Joe smiles at her.

2. His laugh. It makes me laugh too. And I hate my laugh. It sounds like a goose honking.

3. I hate the way his eyes get all sparkly when he's talking about a new guitar he just got.

4. I hate the way he looks while he's playing guitar, like nothing else matters and he's just totally in the zone, like I am when I'm playing sports. He just looks so serious, and it weirds me out that Kevin Lucas can be serious.

5. I hate that after a concert, his hair's kinda damp from all the sweat and it sticks to his forehead and is curlier than usual.

5 b. I also hate that his cheeks are red and flushed and he's smiling that stupid smile of his.

6. I hate that he goes out of his way to make me feel better when I'm down. It makes me feel guilty because I've never really been there for him.

7. I hate that his hugs make me feel like nothing bad could ever happen to me as long as he doesn't let me go.

8. I hate that he knows me so well.

9. I hate that he puts his arm around my shoulders when we're watching movies, because then I can't concentrate on the movie.

10. I hate that he's so oblivious about my feelings.

***

I shut my notebook as the bell rang. No one would ever know about the list. Even though it said "Why I hate Kevin Lucas", anyone who read it would know that I was head over heels for him. And that would be bad. Because the chances of Kevin liking me back were slim to none. And if he did find out, he was such a nice guy that he'd hate to turn me down and the friendship that we'd fallen into surprisingly easily would be ruined, and I'm not so sure I could live with that. So I'd keep quiet about my crush on Kevin and hope Stella would never find out.

Of course, I should have known that when it comes to crushes, hidden feelings and her best friend, Stella Malone always finds out.

Next time: Stella Malone slightly meddles and Macy gets all Stella-like when Kevin goes ":D" at her.
