I'm Going to Try My Best… For You
"Mrs. Quinnsler, I would like to be to be in the drama club." Duncan said, trying not to laugh at the expression on her face.
"Duncan, the drama club is not a joke. If you join, then you'd have to take it seriously." Mrs. Quinnsler said. She could tell Duncan was trying his best to hold in a laugh.
"I know and I'd really like to try to do this seriously. Can I please just have a chance?" Duncan said a little more serious this time.
"Fine, I will give you a chance. BUT if you mess this up, I will not let you have anything to do with my drama club!" Mrs. Quinnsler said very seriously.
"I won't. Thanks, Mrs. Quinnsler." Duncan said, smiling. Mrs. Quinnsler wanted to know what exactly Duncan was up to.
*Bell Rings*
Courtney walks to the cafeteria but then she hears something walking behind her. She smiles and turns around saying, "No need to sneak up behind me, Duncan."
Then she realizes it's not Duncan but Andrew. Her smile fades a little.
"Sorry, didn't mean to disappoint you." Andrew said.
"No, you didn't. Uhm, what's up?" Country asked, trying to break the awkwardness.
"I have something I want to ask… are you going to join the drama club?" Andrew asked, looking at his feet and blushing a bit.
Courtney could tell he was a little nervous. He's been nervous around her ever since what happened at the movies. I wonder why he's asking... "Yeah. Why do you ask?"
"I'm joining too!" Andrew said, suddenly very excited. "I was hoping… if we ever get any parts together… that we could maybe... practice the script together?"
"Uhm, sure. But ONLY if you make the part." Courtney said. She figured he wouldn't get the part since he was always nervous, but his looks weren't too bad for the part. It's his height…
"Don't worry. I'm going to try my best! … For you." Andrew said with a bright smile.
Maybe it wouldn't be so bad being with Andrew…
