Bailey: Smile

Friday

Lunch

"So one kid in your class really shattered glass?" Bailey said as she was walking to lunch with Kenneth hand in hand

"Yeah and he got in trouble for it even though the teacher said to sing the highest you can go," Kenneth said as they both started laughing

"Poor kid," Bailey said as they approached their lunch table with the other three already seated and seemed to be arguing

"What are you three fighting about?" Kenneth asked

"Josh likes Bailey!" Sean said out loud as Josh covered his face

"I thought you were more mature than this!" Josh said as Sean laughed to himself

"You what?" Bailey said utterly confused

"Sean caught Josh staring at you last week and for the past few days he was making an extreme effort not to even face your direction," Charlize said

"You were staring at her!?" Kenneth said

"Dude it's not even like that" Josh said

"Oh angry Kenny is hot" Charlize commented

"Then what is it like Josh?! You specifically told me you don't like her anymore" Kenneth said

"I don't," Josh said as he sighed "The truth is Bailey has an insecurity about her crooked smile and she didn't want any of you to notice but I told her that her insecurity is stupid and that you at least would have noticed and that day I was staring was me trying to see if you noticed her smile when you were talking to Bailey and it seems like she was right as you haven't noticed! And Sean claimed I was jealous so I tried to double back to that claim by not paying Bailey any mind which seemed to have backfired!"

"That's a lot to absorb at once" Sean commented

"You have a crooked smile?" Charlize said confused as she never noticed

"Let me see," Kenneth said

"No"

"Come on Bay," Kenneth said as Bailey just slumped in her seat

"It's really not that bad," Josh said, "I think I still have a picture of her smiling on my phone back when we were together"

"You think?! You deleted all our photos together?!" Bailey said

"She's trying to change the subject," Sean said as Bailey slumped again at being found out

"Found one," Josh said passing his phone around

"Oh, this? I've seen that" Sean said passing the phone to Charlize

"Oh I didn't even notice it until I had to look for it," Charlize said passing it to Kenneth

"No!" Bailey said trying to take the phone as Josh held her back

"Oh!" Kenneth said "Yeah I don't see it"

"What?" Bailey said

"I don't see anything"

"Kenny it's right here," Bailey said pointing to her smile

"...Nope" Kenneth said "Show me in person"

Bailey did the best smile she could as Kenneth looked at her

"You're just trying to be nice," Bailey said

"Bailey I told you before it's not a big deal," Josh said
