Angela's gum smacked loudly as the large bubble finally popped. She was leaning against some random kids locker with her right foot propped up behind her and her fingers nervously tapping against her French book. She had cut class five minutes early to see how Jordan did on his test.
She peered back into the dimly lit classroom and found Jordan's head still slumped over his Algebra test. Sighing, she leaned her head back against the locker and closed her eyes, waiting. They had sat in Jordan's car and studied the same math problems for over an hour yesterday and she felt like nothing had been accomplished.
It didn't help that every time she finished explaining a problem, Jordan always had that far away look in his eyes. Actually it was a look she had been noticing for the past couple weeks. Ever since they broke up and decided to try to be friends he had been acting so weird.
Whenever she asked him what was wrong he always reassured her he was fine and then changed the subject. She didn't know what was going on, but she was going to try her hardest to find out.
Sneaking a peak back into the classroom, she saw that Jordan was now tapping his pencil against the desk as he pressed the buttons on his calculator. She took this moment to study him. He had his hair pushed back out of his face, the effect of his massive hands that would run through his hair when he was nervous. His jacket was slung across the back of his seat and his blue flannel shirt was tied around his waist. The sole of his combat boot was hitting the ground, up down up down, as his leg twitched beneath the desk.
His left hand was currently up at his mouth as he chewed off pieces of finger nails. Jordan had the cutest finger nails she had ever seen on a guy; she even told him once that they reminded her of little moons. He was just too adorable when he was nervous. He always…wait a second, what was she saying?
She shouldn't be thinking like this. 'Bad Angela!' They broke up, he couldn't be cute anymore. His little quirks were adorable anymore. Ok, he could still be cute, but not to her! There was too much pressure when they were in a relationship. She always felt like because of who he had been with before her and how experienced he was, that she always had to compete. But then she finally realized that she wasn't ready for all of the romantic pressure that came hand in hand with dating Jordan Catalano. And they were always fighting! It was better this way, being friends and not having to deal with all the stress she just wasn't ready for yet. The only feelings she felt towards him now were friendly…weren't they?
As her mind was pondering over the subject of friends, she was jilted out of her thoughts by the bell that signaled the end of the period. She reorganized her books into her left hand and tugged down on her over-sized t-shirt with her right. Shoving her hair behind her ear she waited anxiously for Jordan to appear with the news of his test.
