Love is Just a Fantasy

Chapter 3

Five years later…

Sarah sighed; it was her last class of the day, and unfortuanately, it was in a lecture hall. Her professor was droning on and on about something completely irrelevant to English. Sarah was trying her best to stay awake, after this class she got to head home to see her family. "I wonder how big Toby is now," Sarah thought to herself. She dearly loved Toby, and it was his seventh birthday this week.

Just as she was about to nod off, the bell rang. "Yes, freedom," Sarah thought, "or not," she said as she saw Seth Higgens making his way towards her.

"Hey Sarah," Seth called out.

"Oh hi Seth, how are you doing?" Sarah replied.

"Great, even better now that I saw you. Hey, you wanna go out some time, you know, and chill?"

Sarah sighed; it was going to be a joyous conversation, not! "Um Seth, I sort of want to stay single for a while. I'm sorry, but I'll keep you in mind."

"Yea, later…ok," said Seth, looking dejected.

"Oh my god, don't tell me Seth Higgens just asked you out and you just declined. Tell me that didn't just happen!" Courtney, Sarah's best friend, sat there having a mini spazz out in the middle of the hall. "Girl what is wrong with you? Not only is he the hottest guy in school, but he is going to be incredibly wealthy or something someday!"

"Courtney, I don't want to be his "girl," I just want to be me. Plus I so don't like him that way."

"Hell, then can I take him?" Courtney asked in a not so innocent way.

"Sure, just don't do anything I wouldn't do," Sarah joked.

"Well that leaves it wide open," Courtney countered, never tiring of their game they played. "See ya later!"

"Yea, see ya."
