-CeCe-

I kept my eyes on the office, as I saw Gunther talking to our principal, Mrs. Dunn.

Rocky suggested I should talk to him as soon as he made it here, but I have been nothing but a big chicken.

"Hey, CeCe!" I jumped at the sudden voice, but recognized it from anywhere. Tinka.

"Don't you ever know not to sneak up on people!" I said.

"I have every right to sneak up on the girl who has a crush on my brother."

I groaned.

"Why does everyone keeps saying that!" I fussed.

"Oh I don't know, maybe because you have been standing her for ten minutes staring at my brother."

Wow, it's been that long?

I laughed and nervously scratched the back of my head, but she just smirked down at me.

"I just wanted to know how he's enjoying his time back here in Chicago, it been a while Tinka." I said.

"Or maybe your lying through your teeth to me to hide your feelings, see ya later red." She patted my back and walked the opposite way down the hall.

Gunther was now walking out of the office. One of the staff members was handing him his schedule and some textbooks. To my surprise he wasn't wearing anything with sequins or feathers, he was actually in a regular pair of jeans and a blue and white plaid shirt. He actually looked..decent. But that doesn't mean he changed. Gunther started to walk away once the teacher was done giving him his things, and I mentally cussed myself inside my head for not being more faster. Without thinking I started to run behind him and shouted his name.

"Morning, Gunther!" I beamed.

"Morning, CeCe." He simply replied, walking over to a specific locker.

"You're looking sharp. Did you take a break from the sparkles?" I joked.

"I was all up for it once I moved back to the old Country, but I figured wearing it so many times can get tiring. Ya dig?" He did a gangsta stand and gave me a peace sign, as I chuckled.

"It's kinda reminds me of how you were when Ty taught you how to be cool."

"I guess the teaching didn't go to waste, I actually like the new look." Gunther did a short spin and started to put some of his things in his locker.

I didn't say anything after that, but just looked at him. It's so funny how time goes by so fast. One minute were 7th graders who absolutely loathe each other, now were somewhat friends..who have memories.

"Do I have something on my face?" My train of thought was interrupted by Gunther's voice, as he started to touch all around his face.

I chuckled.

"No, you don't. It just been a while since I've seen you, it's nice to have you around again." I softly said.

His face suddenly softened and so did mines, as a small blush appeared upon my face.

"Say what, about we head over to Crusty's after school. Maybe some friend to friend reuniting would help us catch up more?" He said.

I smiled widely, nodding my head eagerly.

"Great, see ya C." He gave me a small smile, before making his way down the hallway.

I don't know what I've gotten myself into. It wasn't like I had a date with Gunther..and what scared me is that deep down I wanted it to be a date.
