Test Four

An Expected Problem?

I lie in bed that afternoon, my head in two minds. Why would someone bully Melonie into that I don't understand! But I am always so grateful that she did it. I couldn't imagine if people from my grade started bullying my brother. Suddenly my phone vibrates and I look to see a text, Jayce.

Jayce- How busy are you right now?

Me- I'm not busy at all

Jayce- Excellent, the town fair at 4 then?

I flow of happiness rushes through my body.

Me- That's sounds great!

Jayce- Good, see you then :D

I decide to send him that happy face too, but it doesn't go to plan and my finger slips on the 's' and I send it, making it look like a confused face. My eyes widen and I freak, trying to type what I meant but my hands go sweaty and they type all over the keyboard, accidently sending him gibberish, with some different faces chucked in it.

Jayce- ?

Me- Nok! I Didn't mesh thijr!

Me- No* mean* tht*

Me- that*

Me- OH MY GOODNESS!

Jayce- hahahaha! See you there xxx

Me- See you

I sigh and let my phone slip out of my hands onto the floor. Stupid nokia. I fall back onto my bed. What am I going to wear? Jayce actually asked me on a date- unless Conner is coming, which is okay. I hope to chickens that he isn't though! I stare at my wardrobe. I feel like if I wear a dress this afternoon then firstly the wind would blow it everywhere and secondly we are going on rides, yeah, no. I go with some jeans and a tight top, with black vans and a hoodie as well.

We arrive at a dusty dirt ground covered place with little stalls placed around the place. At the back of it are heaps of different rides, my mouth drops and I stand in awe of my surroundings. I look to my left to see Jayce walking up to me.

"Amazing isn't it?" I nod my head, a little self-conscious as a play with my shirt making it look right. "So, what first? How about some food?"

"Okay." Why am I so shy and quiet!?

"What are you feeling like?"

"Um, I don't mind-"

"No literally, what are you feeling like, they have crepes, ice cream, burgers, fairy floss, uhhh, some other things... ha ha."

"You choose-"

"No, for goodness sake choose, I really don't mind."

"Uh, I guess I feel like a crepe." I give a small smile, I hate having to choose what we eat, it such a big pressure. All these questions, like what will they like too, are they allergic to anything, what if they are really unhappy with my choice and treat me weirdly the entire time- its alright though. We grab them and look around the festival grounds. I went with Nutella and cream on my crepe. I take my last bite and Jayce murmurs something to me but I don't quite get it.

"What?-' As I speak bits of crepe come flying out of my mouth all over Jayce's shirt and the ground. My face goes cold and numb and my mouth falls. "Oh my gosh, I... I am so sorry!" I wince as I grab his shirt without thinking and try to wipe off the cream. But from my lack of thinking I make it worse, smearing it and smudging it everywhere. I feel like fainting, I feel like disappearing. I want the ground to swallow me up. Suddenly Jayce starts to chuckle. I look at him blankly.

"Oh Ella, I love you so much." My mouth falls as he hugs me still laughing. He wipes some of the crepe on his finger, ignoring the fact that it has been chewed up in mouth and spat out. I scream and try to run away as he grabs me with one hand from behind, and with his crepe and cream finger, he wipes it down my cheek.
