Confessions!

I was walking down the Halls of AGPPA. I waved to some people as I wlaked by them.
My books were in my hands when a girl bumped into me and my books went crashing down.
"Oh my god! I'm soo sorry" the girl said.
"It's fine." I said.
"Okay do you want mew to help you pick your books up?" the girl asked me.
"No it's fine. I can pick them up by myself." I told her. she nodded and walked down the hall.

I was on the floor picking up my books when someone with brown sneakers stood in front of me.
I looked up. It was Jake. He smiled and sat next to me. He helped me with my books.
"Here you go" Jake said giving me my science and social studies textbook.
I just looked at him with a mean look and grabbed my books from him.
"Are you still mad at me?" Jake said as he scratched his neck.
I just looked at him. My look told him that It was yes! I'am still mad at him! Why would he ask a stupid question like that!
"Oh" He said looking down.
"Well ummm...I'll see you at competition rehearsals. Bye" Jake said waving to me. Before I could stop myself I said, "Bye" and waved back.

I was exscused from P.E. because of Competition Rehearsals with Mrs. Hodge and Jake.
I was dreading this time all day!
I went to my locker and put my books away. Then I went to the Auditorium.

Mrs. Hodge was there. Jake seemed to be running late. Okay good! Maybe he went home sick!
No such luck! Right then he came through the Auditorium doors. Okay then, I promised myself I wouldnt say anything to him. I'm just going to sing with him. Thats it!
"Okay well I want to start out with Warming up our voices!" Mrs. Hodge told us.
Jake and I nodded. I didnt dare look at him evem though he kept looking at me!
"Oh my! I forgot the warm up sheets in my classroom. Be right back!" Mrs. Hodge said half way across the room. I waved. This was just great! Now I was ALONE with Jake!

I went to my bag and started acting like I was looking for something.
I heard Jake jump off the stage and then he was right behind me.
He tapped my shoulders and said "Look I'm really sorry! Most girls dont get mad at me for this long! and it's weird that your not saying anything to me! I'm REALLY SORRY!" Jake said. I looked at his Brown eye's and they seemed sad.
"Why did you do it then!" I asked him.
"Well you know how girls show there love by being all flirty well boys show there love to girls by acting Stupid." Jake said. I was confused.
"Most girls go out with my because of my looks and because I'm popular. And when I do somehting stupid like that they just dump me. They basically just use me!" Jake said.
"But were not going out and what do you mean by showing your love?" I asked him. I was now officially WAY conufsed.
"Okay I'm just going to com out and say it..Even if you dont like me the way I like you......Elizabeth Justine Cole I like you!" Jake told me. I blushed.
"What?" I asked.
"I like you! Ever since I saw you walk through the Music room doors!" Jake told me.
"And even if you dont like me the way I like you, I just want you to know that I like you. But why would you like me!" Jake said. I gave him a weird face.
"You dont like me! I knew it! I just should have kept my mouth shut! I cant believe I thought you liked me!" Jake said looking down at his shoes.
"Jake, Why do you think I dont like you?" I asked Jake.
"Because your Smart, sweet, and shy. And I'm loud and stupid! We dont even fit as a couple!" Jake said.
"Jake! Your not Stupid!" I said to him.
"Yes I'am! Only some one stupid would think you would go out with me! and only someone stupid would spray you with Water Guns! I'm soo sorr..." Jake said not finishing his sentance. And thats Because I looked at him and took his shoulders. I shook him and said "Jake! I do like you!".
"What? you do?" He said.
"Of course! Who couldnt resist those big brown eye's! I said looking at him.
I hugged him and then Mrs. Hodge walked in. I pulled away quickly.
She told us to sing our warm ups and the whole time Jake and I were just smiling at each other.
