Today was the day of the science field trip so the students just went straight to their groups. Kim walked over to Liza, Katie being in one of the other two groups, and greeted her with a hug.
"So Kimmy…guess what Katie was telling me…" She said as we pulled apart, her voice a little too aloof.
"Something gossipy no doubt." Kim said smirking slightly. "Go on I can see you really want to tell me."
"Jared is back today! And apparently even hotter than ever, Katie said she saw him and he was like six inches taller!" She was jumping and got even more excited as I gasped.
"Then he would be like…6'5"! Ugh…" Kim had to admit she was a little put out, now there was one more reason for him to date her she was like a foot shorter than him!
"Oh Kimmy I'm sure he'd date a runt." Liza said in a soft but teasing tone, Kim just scoffed.
"Doubtful."
"Well there is one more thing. He is on our bus…Two hours of uninterrupted staring time eh? I wont even get upset if you ignore me part of the time." That got a bit of a grin out of me and I looked around.
"He isn't here though." Kim scowled.
"Relax, he has ten more minutes." And then Liza pulled Kim onto the bus, snagging the bench in the back.
Five minutes later Kim gasped. Paul climbed onto the bus…and Jared was right behind him, Kim gasped again as she realized the only seats left together were right next to her, on the bench. Liza must have realized this too because she sniggered.
"You'll thank me later for pulling this off." Liza muttered as Paul turned to Jared and pointed at the back of the bus.
"You did this on purpose?" Kim shrieked quietly, Liza just smiled knowingly. "Eliza Janet Pierre…."
Just then Jared looked at Kim pulling the deep crimson into her cheeks with the way he stared at her, like he has jus spotted something magical, right in front of him and he began to push Paul toward the bus, never looking away from Kim. As he sat down Kim noticed that Liza had been right, he was even more attractive now.
Paul looked between Kim and Jared, as did Liza. Paul yanked on Jared's shoulder. "Is it Like Sam and Emily man?" He whispered once he had Jared's attention…or at least some of it.
"Exactly!" He yelped excitedly turning back to Kim.
