Since the start of my freshman year in high school, there has been a boy annoying me everyday at lunch.
On the 1st day , in which friends exchange schedules and try to find their next class, I sat alone at the table farthest from all the others, not even bothering to get food. That's when he came along. His bright blonde hair had blinded me and his 100 watt smile made me shield my eyes.
He sat down and talked.
And talked.
And kept talking.
It was interesting…at first. After 5 minutes on endless yaking at his part, it began to get annoying. When I finally made it look like I wasn't interested (because I wasn't) he asked me "But, you don't care about that do you?"
I said no, and he walked away.
It has been like that since. He would find me at lunch, no matter how many times I tried to avoid him, and he would talk. About anything, everything and nothing at all.
Music, TV, cartoons, the weather, food, ramen, colors, unicorns, fighting, his dreams, girls, his friends, gossip, celebrities, books, gangs, etcetera.
But just as I'm about to tell him I'm not interested, he would always ask "but, you don't care about that do you?"
My answer would always be no, I don't care, and he would walk away. It's almost the end of the school year and he still bother (stalks) me.
"It's almost summer break now, Sasuke. What are you going to do?"
I don't answer.
"Me? I'm going to hang out with my friends! Neji promised to take me to places. He better keep his promise!"
He shakes his fist and I say nothing.
"Then there's Kiba. He invited me to play video games everyday for summer break with him! Do you play video games?"
I grunt. He smiles and nods.
"Yeah, I thought so. You don't seem like the kind. You like to read."
He says it as if he knows me. In a way, he does.
"So I was wondering if you want to hang out during summer break…"
I stare at him as he smiles nervously. This is a first. He's never asked me to hang out with him. I have to say something.
"What?"
"Well, we've been talking this whole year and don't you think that makes us friends?"
My eyes widened. Friends? I haven't had one of those since, well…
Let's not think about that.
"Sasuke…?"
I'm feeling talkative so "Aren't you going to ask?"
His small smile fades and he looks down, almost heartbroken.
"But…you don't care about that do you?"
"No, I don't"
And he stood up, punched me in the face, and walked away.
End. :D sequel anyone?
