The Truth Smacks me Across the Face

Prom is now in five days! Drew has still been avoiding me. I am growing more and more positive that he is just jealous so I decided now I would talk to him no matter what.

“Hey, Drew!” I yelled to him while he was at his locker.
“I gotta get to class”, he mutters and starts walking away.
“Oh no you don’t. You are not leaving until we talk” I tell him and he walks back and sighs.
“Ya?” He mumbles.
“Ok, I know you have been avoiding me and I think I know why” I say bitting my lip.

His face turns beat red.

“You do?”
“Ya, you are jealous, but you don’t need to be. We are good friends Drew and know one could take the place of that.”
“You think I am jealous!”
“Ya”
“You are so wrong! You will never get it will you! The reason I have been avoiding you is because…”
“Why Drew! What other reason could there be!”
“The reason is I like or used like you a lot Macy! I can’t stand to see you with another guy, but if you think I am jealous you don’t know me at all!” He storms away.
Wow.
