A/N Umm… I don't really know what to say here… so… yeah a new story. Yeah. Um… hope you like it. Haha.

Disclaimer: own nothing besides my own stuff :)

We all hate school besides that one class that we all love because of someone that we've had a thing for since school started, right? Ha, well that's my problem. Im kind of failing that class because of that certain somebody. English. Ashley Davies.

Ashley and I… well I wouldn't say we're friends… actually I would say that because that's exactly what we aren't. Friends. We're more just acquaintances. The only time we've talked is when she asked me how to spell something. She sits in front of me now. She got moved from her friend Aiden Dennison. They talked too much. That's when I met her.

So, this whole crush thing has been going on for a couple of weeks now. I use to have an A in this stupid class, but now it's a D-. I really should get the grade up, but with Ashley sitting in front of me, I don't think I can.

So, we're sitting in class right now and we only have about 5 minutes left of class, so we're all just talking. I was talking to my best friend, Emily Woods, who sits next to me in here.

She has been my best friend since 2nd grade. I saved her from the 6th grade bully back then.

"So, Spence, who do you like?" She asked me. Random.

Out of the corner of my eye, I see Ashley slightly turn around to listen. "No one really." I reply back. My eyes are glued to her.

"Liar, who is it?" Geez, she never gives up.

I take my eyes off of Ashley and turn to Emily, "No one, Em. For real." I tell her getting annoyed of the topic quickly.

"Fine." She finally ends the conversation

I turn back to look at Ashley who turned back around. Aiden was over here and sitting on her desk and talking to her. I sigh and turn back to Emily. "So, you are for sure coming with me to the concert right?" I ask her.

We planned one night that we were going to go to the concert in downtown LA. Paramore. I can't wait.

Ashley turns completely around, "Who are you guys seeing?" She asks us

I can't believe that she just talked to us. About something that we're actually going to do.

"Spencer here is making me go with her to a Paramore concert." Emily rolls her eyes

Emily isn't a big fan of them. She's more into T-Pain and Akon and them. I can't handle rap or hip hop. But on another note, Ashley is talking to us!

"You don't like them?" Ashley asks Emily

Does Ashley like them? I wonder.

"Not really. I'd much rather go see Akon in concert than Paramore." She tells her

Aiden is just sitting there. He makes this noise like he disagrees with Emily. "I'd rather go see AC/DC or Guns and Roses than either one of those bands." I guess he has to have his input in this too. Jackass.

Ashley pushes him lightly, "Paramore all the way." She smiles and looks over at me

I nod quickly, "Im with her." My heart I swear is beating faster than normal. And I bet ya my face is pretty red. I turn away from her and act like Im looking for something in my backpack.

The three of them are talking about something. Actually, it's more of Aiden and Emily flirting with each other than anything. Then the bell rings.

We all get up and start to head out of the classroom. Aiden and Ashley are in front of Emily and I. Before we turn away, I look at the back of Ashley's head. She turns around and gives me a small smile. I return it and walk away to my next class.

My next class was Spanish. Boring.

The rest of the day went by slow like usual. Before I knew it, I was in first period again. My favorite class of the day. English.

I get in a little late and take my seat behind Ashley. The teacher starts to talk about something about our essays that we turned in a couple of days ago. She already graded them and was about to pass them back.

I stare at the back of Ashley's head and smile to myself. I then grab my bag and sit it on the floor after I take out my binder and a pen and sit it on my desk.

I open my binder and flip to the English section. "Hey," I look up and it's Ashley talking to me. Again.

"Hi." I say with a small smile

"Do you have a pen I could borrow for this period?" I hand her my pen and she smiles at me in return.

I dig through my backpack for another pen. I finally find one and that's when the teacher makes her way back to my desk. She has my essay. She sits it on my desk, "Well done, Carlin. I knew that you would be able to get a higher score eventually." She gave me a pathetic smile and walked back up the row

I pick up my essay and I read 89 on the top in big red marker. This has to be wrong. I look at the name it is says Ashley Davies. I sigh and tap on her shoulder. She turns around and I hand her the paper. "Thanks." She says in a quiet voice and turns back around.

When I finally get my essay back, it says 82. Well, it's better than a 57. That's what I got on my last essay.

The teacher was going over the essays with some kids as the rest of the class was talking amongst themselves. I sat there re-reading my essay. I was in the middle of it when it was yanked out of my hands by Emily. "What did Miss Carlin get?" She asked flipping it back to the front page. "An 82. Not bad." She chuckled as she handed it back to me

"Yeah." I replied back

Ashley turns around to me. "An 82? Hey, that's better than your last score." She smiled and laughed a little

I laughed a little in return, "Yeah I'd say."

She turned back around and whipped out her cell phone and started to text someone. I happily sighed. She was actually talking to me. The bell rings.

It was Friday. Tonight there was a football game. King High against Marthasville. It's going to be a good game, so I think im going to go with my friends. Well actually, Emily, Kyle, and Tony are making me. A few other friends are coming too.

Kyle is our only gay friend we have. He is the only one who knows about my crush on Ashley. He's the only one I can talk to about it. He's the only one I can trust with my giant secret.

I head off to Spanish and sit down next to him. He looks at me and smiles, "How was first period?" And I know exactly what he meant by that

A/N Ok how was that? You think I should continue? I know that this chapter was short, but I promise the next one to be longer. Reviews are always good!!!!!
