It was so weird.
I couldn’t believe I liked him.
Him – of all people.
I never would’ve thought for even a second to like him.
But that was before.
Before Hayden and Riley’s party.
He just showed up and my friends and I pulled him into the music and the crowd.
A small feeling crept into my stomach and my heart.
Then my head started to reel.
I thought to myself… this is weird.
I mean, it’s Jared…
I can’t just like this guy.
What would everyone say if they found out?
I mean….it’s Jared!
Of all people in school, I just have to go and like the one that would mean to like him would be like “social suicide”.
Right?
Well, it’s hard sometimes, I think.
Like, you know, you just can’t control your feelings for some people.
Like my liking Jared for instance.
Oh my gosh….I like Jared.
Okay, I think this is something….something big.
I don’t know what’s going to happen.
What if he knows?
What if he knows and then tells people?
What if people find out before Jared does?
(sigh) The stress!
