YOU AND I

All the way to my first period of the day, I kept on looking around, just having a slight hope that I might see the girl I freaked out this morning. I was now alone so I had no one to distract me. And clearly my luck was ‘perfect’ as my first period itself was History- the subject I suck at the most, and I was alone. Niall and Liam had their first period together and Louis and Zayn had their first period together.

It was not like I didn’t have any other friends. I had, but they were like not my friends really. Since we were all in the school band almost everyone in this school knew us and wanted to be friends with us just for that fact. Well, I wasn’t particularly comfortable with that, so I don’t really mingle with anyone other than the four of them. And I guess that’s why I was really hoping to see that girl again.
She didn’t know me at all. If it were anyone else, I would’ve gotten a huge, fake smile and some compliments about how perfect we were as a band and stuff. I mean I love the fact that it makes all of them happy with us doing what we love, but sometimes I find myself wishing that they would just overlook the fact that I was a part of the school band and be normal with me.

The minute I got to my class I could literally feel everyone’s eyes on me. I avoided from making any eye contact with anyone and sat at the back of the class all by myself. Ten minutes more till the bell would ring. I hoped, really hoped fervently that the girl would walk in at any minute then. I knew nothing of her-not her name, where she came from, let alone if she were a senior or not. The only thing I knew about her was that she was new here. Hopefully the odds would be in my favor.

Five minutes gone and still no sign of her, only some other old faces. Oh how I wish I had someone with me right now. It was just so boring. I would totally talk with someone but all they would like to talk with me was about being in the school band and popular. And I loathed it. I would rather sit here all alone but still it was utterly boring. I was really not the kind of the guy who likes to be left alone. None of us were.

And that’s when, I caught a girl staring at me, like literally staring without even blinking her eye. I thought it would be rude to just ignore her, so I smiled at her and gave her a small wave. I mean it was a no big deal but apparently for her it was. She squealed and practically started jumping. It was just so funny, I laughed and like all the girls started squealing. In just a few moments, the whole class was chaotic.

“What’s the deal with everyone today?” suddenly we heard a stern, thick voice just at the second the bell rang. And it was none other than our History professor, Mr.Walterz. The class was in a pin-drop silence.

“So, let’s get started than, shall we?” he said to my very assumption. And at that moment I was actually yearning for the moment where I was alone at the back of my class. That’s how much I loathed History. And well, the girl didn’t enter the class till the last moment. My day couldn’t get any worse, could it?
