This is my first story. I hope you guys enjoy it! :)
"Miss Crawford, pay attention!"
"What?" I say and see my English teacher, Mr. Bennett, standing at the front of the classroom. "Oh, sorry."
"I asked you what a transitive verb is," he says.
"Oh! That's…um…" Before I can finish, he calls on someone else. Great! I think. I can daydream more about Eli!
"Hey! Kimberly!" Eli whispers to me from his desk, which is right next to mine. "Caught in your own fantasy world again. What are you thinking about this time?"
"Umm…Justin Bieber," I quickly say without blurting out the truth.
"Oh. Bieber's cool," he says, but I know for a fact he hates Justin Bieber more than anything else.
"Mr. Ryan, could you please come up here?" I hear Mr. Bennett say. I wait until Eli is far enough away before I start doodling in my notebook again. Eli and Kimberly Ryan. Kimberly and Eli Ryan. My notebook page is covered with this and hearts.
"Hey, Mrs. Ryan, think you've got enough hearts there?" my best friend Jack whispers from behind me.
"Oh, shut up! You're just jealous of him." I say, defending myself.
"Oh please! He's the only one who calls you Kimberly. I thought you hated that."
"When he says it, it's cute."
"Whatever, Kim." Right when Jack says that, the bell rings. "See you at the dojo after school?"
"Definitely." I tell him. "See you there!" Eli walks up behind me.
"Ready to go to lunch?" he asks me as I stare into his dreamy eyes.
"Yeah. Let's go."
I thought that adding Eli would add some drama and make it more interesting. I'll try to write Chapter 2 soon. :)
