A/N - this is not a story update - Just wanted to fix some of the spelling/grammatical errors I spotted earlier today.

~Michelle's POV~

Today is the day.

"Where is she?" I thought to myself as I quickly dialed my best friends number. I was nervously tapping my foot as I listened to the dial tone on my iPhone and looked up and down the road outside my house.

Today is the day I will walk up to him and say hello.

The dial tone finally came to an end and I heard faint muttering on the other end...something that sounded like 'She's sooo gonna kill me'.

Today is the day that will not avoid the routes he takes to his classes, or stare at the floor as he walks by me.

Today is the day that I remind him that I exist.

I grinned evilly as I growled into the phone, "Shiana D Fitzgerald, today is our first day back at school, the day you promised me a ride into school in order to do the thing YOU pressured me into doing and you're LATE?" I started pacing up and down my porch as I continued to shout into the phone not giving her a chance to talk. "You are the one who gave me a stupid pep talk last night telling me that I had spent enough time alone and that I HAD to talk to him today otherwise you would disown me. You said you would drive me to school so that I could do THE DEED so where the hell are you? Not to mention I have Math first thing this morning Shiana! So yes I am gonna kill you if you don't get here in 3...2... Don't make me get to one Shay!"

"Oh calm down Chelle," I heard someone call out behind me only to turn around see my best friend drive up to the front of my house. "We've got 20 minutes...That's plenty of time. Take a chill pill."

I hopped into her car and gave her a quick hug before sternly saying, "I swear Shay, this is the last time I get a ride from you. You may be my best friend and all but I swear you would be late to your own funeral if you could. And who the hell still says take a chill pill?" She smirked as she drove off and said, "You say that every time Chelle but until you get your own car or agree to get a ride from you parents you know that you'll be in this car same time tomorrow. As for the second part of your rant, I still say take a chill pill. Now forget about all that nonsense and tell me, have you been saying what I told you last night?"

Sighing heavily I said, "Yea yea Shay. Today is the day, today is the day I will walk up to him and say hello, today is the day that will not avoid the routes he takes to his classes, or stare at the floor as he walks by me, today is the day that I remind him that I exist. Are you happy? I've been saying it in my head since I woke up this morning and I'm positive that I'm gonna go mental thanks to you!"

"Awwww hun," Shay said as she beamed at me, "You finally took my advice..."

"Well it's not like I had much of a choice did I? You said you'd disown me if I didn't."

"Yea well all threats aside, Michelle I've seen you alone for too long and this year we are going to do something about it. I'm gonna make that boy fall for you if it's that last thing I do and if he doesn't..."

"Yes Shay, I know, I've heard this all last night. If he doesn't fall for me you are personally gonna do horrible horrible things to him that I'd rather not repeat...blah..blah...blah...now shut up and pull up into that space over there..." I mumbled as we entered the school's parking lot. "We gotta run if we're gonna make it on time."

Shay parked the car and turned it off but before either of us could get out she turned to me and said seriously, "Mark my words Chelle, Today is the day! Something good will happen today...just give it a chance."

I smiled as we both walked out of the car and towards the school...maybe today WOULD be the day that everything changed!
