Okay. I forgot to write something on the first and second chapter (yes, I know it doesn't have any 'title' for each chapter) but I do not own 'Flipped' and it's amazing characters.

Hope you guys enjoy this.

BRYCE: All I'm thinking about is Juli.

Sitting on a chair alone inside the school bus is not fun. First, you don't have anyone to talk to when you're lazy to stand up and just go to another seat. Second, it's boring. No fun. Garrett isn't going to school today. I just talked to him last night. The conversation we had is somehow weird.

Our conversation was like this:

"Hey, Garrett. I have to talk to you tomorrow about something."

"Why not now?"

"I can't explain it well today so it's best to say it tomorrow."

"Dude, I'm not going to school tomorrow."

"Why not? Are you sick or something?"

"Lucky guess, Bryce. I have this stupid fever and it's driving me crazy."

"What, the fever's driving you crazy? How?"

"No dude! My mom's driving me crazy! I mean, do I still look like a ten year old kid to you?"

"No. But 13, yes."

"Oh sure. Make fun of me now."

"I'm kidding. Why's your mom driving you crazy?"

"Just told you. I look like a ten year old kid to her. I don't need her help."

"Dude. I think you do."

"Yeah. Sure."

"You don't seem sick to me. Your voice is fine."

"That's because I feel a little fine today, thank you."

"You're faking it, aren't you?"

"What? No. Of course not! Why did you call anyway?"

"I just told you awhile ago."

"Wasn't paying attention. Again, will you Bryce?"

"Forget about it."

"Let me guess. It's about Juli Baker, huh?"

"What? No! Yes... I don't know."

"Wow Bryce. You really seem attracted to Juli. She's the flower and you are the bee. Sweet as honey, man."

"Shut up."

"Oh come on, Bryce. I'm kidding. What is it about Juli Baker anyway?"

"I don't know. She seems... more beautiful everytime I see her."

"Of course."

"I'm not kidding! She has this glow!"

"Don't tell me she's keeping a light bulb inside her head!"

"I'm not playing with you, Garrett."

"Woah dude. Chill. I'm just playing."

"I'm being serious about Juli, am I?"

"Look Bryce. I don't know what that Baker girl –"

"'That Baker girl' has a name. And her name is Juli."

"Forget what I said."

"You're insulting her!"

"I am not! I was kidding! Man, what happened to you? The minute I knew you were avoiding Juli. And the next thing I knew, you were chasing after her! What if she has a boyfriend and you're still like that? What will happen to you, Bryce? You're not going to stare at her shadow when she walks away, are you? Of course not! I know you, Bryce. You've never fallen in love with a girl before. Juli changed you, can't you see?"

"Stop it! So what if Juli changed me? It doesn't mean I'm not Bryce Loski anymore!"

"Don't worry, man. You still are... With a different attitude."

After his last sentence, he hung up. It's weird because we were talking about his fever and his mom driving him crazy and the next thing I knew, we were talking about Juli. We were joking around. Not until he said "Don't tell me she's keeping a light bulb inside her head!"

I mean, it's an insult right? It's not a compliment.

It seems like I've been daydreaming. I got back to planet Earth when I noticed Shelly Stalls sitting next to me. I didn't care anyway.

I looked outside the window hoping to see Juli. Why isn't she still inside the bus? If she was early, then we could've sat beside each other. I will be so happy. But hey, sometimes you don't get what you want.

Shelly Stalls must be announcing something big because when I looked at her, she's standing and looking back at me.

"Bryce? Did you hear what I just said?"

"No. I'm sorry, what?"

"I said I'm having this amazing party at my house! And you are my important guest AND my date!"

I stared at her having this shocked expression on my face waiting for her to laugh. She didn't. Kill me now. The last thing I wanted to do was to be Shelly's date. What is this 'party' anyway?

"What party?"

"My birthday party, silly. I'm inviting everyone."

Then a thought clicked inside my head. She's inviting everyone and that means I get to see Juli there.

"Is Juli invited?"

Stupid question! Duh. Everyone is invited, right?

"Of course Bryce. I did say everyone is invited, didn't I?"

I just nodded and stared out of the window. It seems like years to make this bus move already. Who are we waiting for anyway? I want to go to school now so I could start avoiding Shelly. She's creeping me out.

It looks like my question was answered. I heard footsteps and to see who it is, I saw her. I saw Juli. For awhile, our eyes met. Wow, she has beautiful eyes. I could stare at them forever.

Unfortunately, forever did not last. Shelly Stalls nudged me and said "Look Bryce. This is me in my dress for my party! It's going to be exciting! With you as my date also."

I forced myself to ignore her and went back to stare at Juli. She's sitting on the backseat with Darla. I cannot stop myself from staring!

I really have to go over to Juli and say "Hey Juli. You look lovely. I'm sorry for everything. The things I said about you... The things I've done to you... I feel really bad. I just want you to know that you're an awesome girl. And I just want you to know that..."

That what? I love her? No way. I'm not going to say it just yet. I'm being a coward but I don't care. I can't say that to her yet. We're not in good terms that's why. She'll try and avoid me again like what she did. It's hard for me, I know.

If I did tell her I love her, then my world will spin around.
