It's been a week since what I called "the hug on purpose that was meant to seem not on purpose". I didn't mention anything to him about it, neither did he to me. A few times I felt awkward being around him but it all seemed back to normal again.
Waking up for school wasn't a torture to me anymore. My friends and I were having great laughs everyday. My lessons weren't actually that bad.
It was Monday and as I remembered, my buds and I were going to the movies at 6PM. I couldn't wait for school to be over with because we were gonna see "The Last Song" and believe me, I've been waiting to go see this movie since the trailor came out!
I got up from bed, brushed my hair and teeth, got dressed and rushed out for school as fast as I could. I was actually really excited like I knew what my day was about to turn into. Anyways, when I got to school there were just a couple of people, not from my class luckily, so I went and laid on my desk. Everything seemed so normal, yet it so wasn't.
On a normal day, millions of things would be spinning in my mind, millions of other things would be bothering me and all I'd wanna do is go home and burry myself in bed. That morning everything seemed peaceful and beautiful like someone had cast a spell for happiness on me.
Anyways, not long after I realized how awesome the morning was, I heard the door of the room opening and turned to see Justin standing there smiling.
- What are you so happy about? - I said half smiling, half laughing.
- Not gonna tell you - he said while putting his bag on his desk.
- Aw, c'mon now.... Happiness needs to be shared if we wanna live in a better world. -
I had NO idea how I'd come up with that but it worked.
- It's nothing really, I just saw you laying on your desk smiling in the morning. Now your turn.
- So you were smiling at me? - I said trying to tease him.
- Don't avoid the subject...your turn now.
- My turn whaaaaat?
- Why were you smiling? - he said coming towards me.
- I don't know, I just have this feeling that today's gonna be a great day. Plus we're going to watch the movie tonight, remember?
- Ah, yeah... about that. I wouldn't be able to make. - hearing that made me sad and he obviously noticed because he laughed, - Haha silly. Of course I'm coming, I was just messing up with you.
As I was about punch him a wave of classmates started coming in and we didn't get the chance to finish our conversation.
School went by fast, I enjoyed every single one of my classes. After school I went straight home to get some rest, shower and pick my outfit for tonight.
Now if I have to be honest, I didn't get much rest. I was so excited and hyped I couldn't stand still in one place for more than 5 minutes, so it all went like - "in front of the pc, oh boy I can't stand still, I need candy, oh dear candy I love you!, pc again, jee I need to do something, picking an outfit (2 hours)"
Finally it was time to go out. I was wearing casual clothes, nothing fancy. Just skinnies and a top, but I felt extremely ellegant which was pretty weird but anyways I couldn't think about that then, I was too happy about watching the movie! I went and waited in front of the movie theatre.
- Aye, you're here early - someone yelled. I turned and saw Justin.
- Um...you're here too?
- Yeah, but that...ghrr, I....
- GOTCHA!! Haha, anyways, what did you do in the afternoon? - I was just trying to keep a conversation going because sitting there in silence just didn't seem much of a choice to me.
- I slept and here we are!
- Say whaaaaaaat? - my mouth dropped!
- Well, what do you wanted me to do?
- WOW! I couldn't find a place for my ass of excitement and you just slept. That's just ... WOW!
- Haha, you're crazy.
Then all of our friends started coming and we all went into the movie theatre.
(after the movie)
- OH MY BUNNIES! That was the most amazing movie ever! I loved it, when are we watching it again? - I was so excited, more excited than I was before watching the movie.
- We just watched it. - Justin said in surprise
- I know, I know! But when are we watching it again?
- Seems like you really liked it, huh?
- JUSTIN, ARE YOU FREAKIN KIDDING ME? Didn't you hear me when I said it was the most amazing movie ever and I loved it?
- Whoa, okay. Slow down! - my best friend Kate said, trying to clam me down.
- Okay, so I guess I'll see you guys tomorrow at school?
- Yeah, bye. - they said in one voice and started leaving, and so did I.
As we all started walking in our directions, I was about to pull my iPod out of my pocket when someone yelled my name. I turned around and saw Justin running towards me. When he finally reached me, I gave him a stare as I didn't know what was happening, which was quite true. I had no idea what he was on to.
- I thought I'd walk you home. It's getting dark and I wanted to stop by my uncle's place. - he sounded like he just made that up but I went with it. - So, you really loved the movie, didn't you?
- Yes, I mean the way she tried fighting with whatever life gives her, the way she changes in the name of love, how she reunites with her father, it's amazing!
The rest of the way we talked about random stuff like homeworks and we made predictions about what was gonna happen in class the following day.
- I guess we're here. - he said in a sad voice when we reached my street.
- Yeah, so...see you tomorrow?
- Sure, goodnight - Justin smiled but didn't move.
- I'm going now - I said trying to make him start walking away but failed. - Aren't you going to go?
- Oh, sorry. I just... sorry. Night.
I went up to the apartment, opened the door, told Mum how the movie was and went to bed. Of course, falling asleep took more than an hour because I couldn't stop thinking about Justin and the feelings I had for him. I coudln't stop wondering if he felt the same way. Soon enough I was in Dream Land.
