Macy 14: Going Out

“Uh Macy,” Derrick began, “Would you, I don’t know, like to go out with me?”

“Uh yeah. That’d be nice. Really.” She replied.

“Great, so tomorrow after school?”

“Sounds great.”

Derrick smiled and wrapped his arms around her. A couple people gaped at them, whispering about Shane, but Macy didn’t care. She held onto Derrick as if he was life’s purpose and for now, he probably was. Sure, people would be talking about them, but who lives in a world where people don’t talk? And whether they do talk or not, it shouldn’t matter.

Right?
