I sat there looking at her. I knew that she would never love me the way I love her, but I couldn't help myself. Her beauty kept my attention all day, every day, but sometimes I would wonder why I do this to myself. I can't waste my time on her! I have things to do, like helping my brother out, or protecting my little sister. But when I look into her eyes, everything goes blank and all I think about is her. I hope one day I man up and talk to her, maybe one day date her and... marry her.

My brother always makes fun of me because he says "I act like a stalker." I don't call it stalking- it's more like studying. As I study her, I find more things about her that I love, even her hair. The closest I got to her was at the Halloween party when her lips touched mine. It's been kind of awkward between us since then, and I hope if I do talk to her, we can put it behind us.

I try to ask my dad what to do, but all he says give her a cake or chips, but she can't eat. My mom tells me just to tell her how I feel, but I am too much of a punk. My brother just tells me to give her hints until she finds out, but that it makes it more awkward. My little sister doesn't know what tell me unless it's involving school.

God, looks like I am on my own on this one. Darwin Watterson, the lone ranger. But anyway, let me do this class work because otherwise I'll get in trouble... but let me get one more look. I turn my head to look at Carrie to see her looking at me. We quickly look back at our work.

Oh my gosh, was she looking at me or that clock on that wall? But I was looking at her as well, so I might be the creep here.

Carrie and Darwin

Stupid, stupid! Can't be doing that I don't want think her/him to thinks I'm creepy stalker! Just do your work.

The bell rings and everybody leaves class to go to lunch.

"Dude, come sit with me and Penny today!" Gumball yells in my ear. "Doesn't Carrie sit there?" I tried whispering.

"Yeah, but she's super quiet. Maybe this is your chance to talk to her!" Gumball said happily.

My heart skipped a beat, or maybe two. "Wait, what? Me? ... No way!" I panicked.

"Just go to your locker and put your stuff away. Meet me at lunch," Gumball said with a smooth tone. I nodded and walked away, disappearing into the crowd of students trying to get to lunch or their next class.

Maybe Gumball was right. This could be my chance. I might have a shoot after all!

Carrie's POV

"No way.. I am too scared!" I yelled.

"Look at me, girl. I am NOT going give up on you, because this might be your best shot, so you better take it!" Penny yelled back.

Damn, maybe she's right. I gotta stop hiding in this lonely little shell of mine, and bring someone into my afterlife. Someone who would love me and care for me and talk to me when I had no one else.

"Fine, whatever," I said, annoyed.

Penny tried giving me a hug, but instead went right through me and hugged Tobias. "I knew you couldn't resist this sweet sexy body," Tobias said, trying to sound sexy. Of course, Penny pushed him into the crowd of kids.

"Loser", Penny said then we walked off to my doom but it might not be so bad.
