I look up and Noah is standing in front of me holding out my papers in an absolute mess. "Are you okay?" He asks. "uh-um-uhhhhhhhhh..." Is all that comes out of my mouth. "Think stupid. Your crush from the second grade is talking to you. SAY SOMETHING YOU IDIOT."  "Sorry" I mumbled. "I wasn't paying attention to where I was going." "No don't worry about it.

He's so popular and I'm so not and it would never work." You never know darling." "You ready to go Quinny?" "Yes." "Okay, let's go."
