Comments on 'An Awesome Answer'I just couldn't do it.
"You _have_ to," Jess hissed, prodding me irritably. Her patience was about evaporated. I supposed I couldn't blame her; I'd been debating whether to do this all week, and she was understandably sick of it.
"Don't _poke_ me."
"Kay, he's right there. Go! Go!"
I inched over to where Jakob stood, talking, grinning. Jeez, he was cute. My heart hammered in my chest. I couldn't do this. I just couldn't.
"Jakob?"
He turned around and grinned at me, a little nervously. His friends vanished. "Hi, Kayla."
"Do you, um..." I licked my lips. "Doyouwanttogooutwithme?"
"What?"
_Breathe, Kayla._ "Do you want to go out with me?"
He blushed.
"Okay....when?"
"Um..." I'd never have guessed I'd make it this far. I hadn't even considered _when_. "Saturday? Two?"
Jakob grinned.
I grinned back.
"Okay," he said.
I smiled, ready to burst with happiness.

Nice telling of a magical moment, whether your 12, 18, 23, or 67. It’s just nice to put yourself out there and find out someone likes you a little bit too. And girls asking guys out: totally awesome. That’s how I got most of my girlfriends in high school, and thank goodness cause I rarely had the cajones to ask them out.
