"Louise, I've been acting weird recently." I confronted my friend. He looked at me in a serious manner. "And how have you been acting weird Carter, my dear friend?" he asked in a monotoned voice.
"It seems that my problems is revolving around that new guy in our Biology and Math class. Did I mention he's also in my English and Performing Arts class? Yes I did." I told him. He nodded with a nonchalant face. "Yes yes, this seems serious. What is your-ow! Hey!" he girlily screeched.
I held out my throbbing hand to his face. "I'm being serious here Louise!" I scolded him. He rubbed his bruised arm carefully. "Fine, what's wrong with you hun?" he soothed wrapping an arm around me. I glared at him and he instantly shoved his hands away in a surrender.
I sighed slumping in my seat. "I don't know...ever since Monday, when we bumped into him, whenever I saw him I'd instantly freeze and my cheeks feels all warm." I fondled my cheeks with a pout. "Oh you are just too cute!" he squealed pinching my cheeks.
"Ey! Shtop isht!"
"But look at your flustered cheeks."
"Shut uph!"
I shoved his hands away with a quick tug. He chuckled and rested his hands on his thies. "But seriously. What's wrong, Cart?" he finally asked. I stare into his face to see no sarcasm facialled in it and sighed. "I told you don't know!" I sighed in exasperation.
"Have you ever felt like this Lou? When your heart start to beat so hard you can't breathe? When even being near that person you feel like clawing into a hole and hide there forever?" I asked profusely playing with my hands. He was quiet for a moment.
I looked up at him. He was blushing. I gaped as I looked at him cherry red cheeks. "N-no" he lied. I know for a fact that he lied from his expression. I rushed over to his side from across the table. "Hey, you alright?" I asked consoling him. His eyes were tearful and his face darkened in shade.
He grinned at me. "Y-yeah, just need to go to the bathroom for a bit okay?" I didn't pressure him as he disappeared. What was wrong with him? Was he sick? Should I have come with him? Maybe I can catch up if I go now! I stood from my spot and exited the empty classroom.
As I turned a corner, I was suddenly hit by a familiar broad chest. And like I've been doing all week, I fell on my butt. "Ow" I squeaked. "Whoops, we've really gotta stop meeting like this!" a very familiar voice chuckled. A hand appeared in my sight and I grabbed it without thinking.
As soon as I was in range, I saw who it was. The new guy! My face instantly grew hot as I stared back at his golden-hazel eyes. "R-Rick"

I couldn't stop the tears as they rushed down to the drain. I hated this. I hated falling in love with that person. I knew it was wrong. He would probably hate me if I told him.
what was I thinking anyway? He's dating my friend. He's happy like that.
Who am I to take their happiness?
A sudden click made me froze in place. I rushed into one of the stalls and closed it, door slightly open to peak at that person.
My whole body tensed when I saw his back. It was him.
