Secret Crush

It was a Tuesday morning and when I walked into second period not worried about my project that was due in the class. I was confident that one of my group members had it printed out and ready to hand to the professor. I relaxed a bit in my seat as I scanned the classroom, wondering how many students wouldn't make it because of the weather. My head quickly turned to the back of the room when I heard the door opened

'No, that's not him,' I thought.

I took my books out of my bag and the door opened again. I looked over but saw that it wasn't him again. I sighed and looked down at my desk.

'Was he not coming today? It would be the second class in the row. Maybe he figures he could miss this one. Maybe he is having car trouble, the weather is pretty bad. Should I text him about the project? No, he'll come Thursday. I'll tell him then.'

The door opened a couple of more times and I hopefully looked to see his face. But no, it was another classmate each time. Soon the professor started to lecture and I zoned out.

'Wow, this is boring.'

I looked at the PowerPoint presentation on the screen.

'What time is it?' I thought taking a look at my watch. 'Only a half hour passed. Darn still got awhile.' I placed my head in my hand.

The door in the back of the classroom opened and I glanced back wondering who can be coming in this late. I felt a smile creep on my face when he walked in with a smile. He took his seat next to me and gave a small explanation to the professor on why he was late.

'Yep, car problem. I'm glad he made it, though'

I bit my lip wondering why I even cared so much that he was here anyways. I groaned to myself when I noticed that my heart was beating faster.

'I shouldn't feel like this since, I have a boyfriend and he has a girlfriend'

He then looked over at me and gave me his smug smile, telling me that our flirting will continue today. I held in a laugh that was threaten to disrupt the class.

'All was well.'
