I sat on my porch watching Justin Bentson ride his bike down the street.
"Hey Allie!" he called riding to me.
The guy has liked me since seventh grade. We went out once in eighth grade and once in last year in ninth. I meant he's really cute and is the head quarterback of our high school's varsity football team but he really only cares about himself. He always seems to have a girlfriend but is always flirting with me and ready to break up with her any moment he sees hope in me. It's pathetic.
Hey. Aren't you going to school?" I asked standing up and grabbing my bag.
"Yeah, I was going to let you walk with me. I just need to put away my bike," he raised his eyebrows, "Or you can sit on my lap on with bike."
There he goes again. He lives across the street from me and we are friends unless he does things like this.
"It's ok Justin. We can just walk," I gestured for him to go but away his bike.
"That's fine babe. Anything for you, "he flipped his brown hair.
I sighed, "You just go, and I hate it when you're like this."
"Fine," he shrugged, "I'm just so sorry that I like you."
He pouted and stared at me for a second then shook his head and walked off.
"Wait! Justin!" I yelled at him.
"Yes Allie?" he stopped and smiled at me."
I walked to him, "I want to walk with you but please just promise that you'll try to be my friend right now," I told him putting my hand on his shoulder.
Maybe that was a little too weird. I quickly pulled my hand off and blood rushed to my cheeks. He sighed and smiled at me and pulled me to walk with him.
It was silent for a few minutes until he said, "I know you like me," he announced when he came back to me.
I didn't answer but I wanted to scream YES! He was way too cute for me to not like him but I think he can be nice, at times.
"I don't! Okay!" I really hate him for this.
It was silent for the rest of the way to school. I knew he was just smirking the whole time.
"Allie!!" I heard my other best friend Jessica scream from across the street.
"Yo Jessie!" I smiled and hugged her.
We walked and talked about random stuff like how annoying our hair was this morning and how much homework English teachers are giving us. The bell rang and she went to homeroom and I went to mine.
As I was walking I saw Justin hugging one of his random girl palls. I guess she's the lucky winner today. I rolled my eyes. I might be crazy but I think I saw him wink at me. I ignored it and went to homeroom. I think I am crazy. How could I like that player?
