Chapter 2
Freddy's POV
The bell rang for first recess. I was so relieved, we were working on algebra, I hate algebra. Zack and I walked outside together, then headed for the field. We sat down on one of the benches out there.
"So how was your summer?" Zack asked me. " It was pretty good, until my mom and dad made me go to this summer camp. It was so boring!" "That sucks!" Zack replied "Yeah… how was yours?" I asked him "Ya know the usual……." I stopped listening to Zack when I turned my head and I saw Marta and Eleni and Katie walking over toward us. I got so nervous and I didn't know why!
Zack's POV
I was talking to Freddy about my Summer when I noticed he was staring at something, I looked where he was and noticed he was staring at Marta, Eleni and Katie walking toward us. Freddy looked a little uncomfortable and nervous suddenly. I laughed. "What are you laughing at?" he asked me "Oh…nothing." I said back Then the girls reached us.
Freddy's POV
Oh god, the girls were getting closer and closer. I was begging to feel very uncomfortable. Zack suddenly laughed out of nowhere. I asked him why but he said it was nothing so I just shrugged it off. The girls finally reached us
"Hey guys!" said Marta in her usual cheery voice. Luckily her personality hadn't changed. Marta was always happy. It didn't seem like she could ever get mad at anyone.
"H-h-hey Marta." "Heya Marta!" Zack said confidently. "So, whatcha guys doin over here?" asked Eleni "nothing just catchin up." Said zach "That's cool." Piped in Katie. It was then that I realized I had just been sitting there staring at Marta. I couldn't think of anything to say. My mind was frozen and I was so nervous to say anything! Why was I acting like this?! I needed to say something before somebody noticed me, HURRY SAY SOMETHING! "I love your-I like your.." I siged "…your hair looks good marta." Every one just stared at me for what felt like 100 years but the finally Marta broke the silence "Thanks freddy, ya know I just felt like a change." "Yeah.." I said . It's the only thing I could say without studdering.
Suddenly the bell rang. I was so relieved. Saved by the Bell! I thought. The girls said bye and walked back themselves. "Freddy, Freddy, Freddy." Zack said. "What?" I asked as I turned to him. "We need to talk man!" he said I knew what it was about, but I just nodded. Why was I acting like this. It was never that hard to talk to Marta before. I was really confused at my behaviour at morning recess for the rest of the day.
