Linus began to stutter and glare at Lucy. "I'm so sorry Charlie
Brown!" Linus pleaded. "Please don't be mad," He said. Charlie looked
helplessly at his friend. He couldn't stay mad forever. "It's fine Chuck.
It really is. Isn't it Marcie?" Patty insisted. Marcie nodded silently and
looked away. "And, I'm trying not to be mad that you didn't tell us in the
first place! If you don't forgive Linus I'll be madder," Patty stated.
Charlie Brown looked away and then back at Linus. "I forgive you," He
finally said.
Charlie made his way to Math quickly. He couldn't wait to see Frieda.
When he finally made it, he walked in and sat down next to Frieda. "Hi
Charlie! Nice to see you!" She welcomed him cheerfully. "Hi Frieda, nice
to see you too," Charlie said cheerfully, 'I can't believe I said that' he
thought, trying to smile. "Rumor has it that Shermy heard you had a crush
on someone in English," She said slyly, "May I ask who that is?" she
asked. Charlie's heart skipped a beat. 'Just tell her the truth' he told
himself. "No one you know," he replied. 'You idiot!' he thought. "Who do
you like?" He asked. Frieda thought for a moment and gave him one of those
gorgeous smiles. "A very special guy who shall remain nameless," She
answered. Charlie's heart dropped. But before he could say anything more,
class had started.
