“Erica’s glaring at me.” She waved to Erica and smiled.
“Hahaha, ignore her.” I touched Jessica’s cheek. “She’s probably jealous of you.”
“Oh yeah?” She grabbed my hand and held it. “And why would she be?”
“Because, I am happy, with you, and also because you’re smarter than her in chem.”
“Haha.” She hugged me.
“Switch!” Louie yelled.
We got up.

“Hey Adam, can we leave now?” Louie seemed jumpy. “I mean i know you’re having fun, but can we?”
“Uh, yeah sure, let me say bye.” I ran after Jess. “Jessica.”
“Yup?”
“I have to go, i’ll see you at school?”
“Yeah.” She kissed my cheek. “Bye.”
“Bye.” I smiled and ran back to Louie.

“What’s wrong bro?” I asked Louie as we approached the car.
“I like Christina.”
“And so we left?”
“Yeah! Dude, you know i suck at relationships.
“I think you should ask her out.” I opened the door. “And i mean it.”
“Yeah, maybe i will.’’ He turned the car on. “That reminds me, how was you and Jess?”
“It was pretty good man.”
“You ask her out?”
“Er..no.”
“Why not?!”
