Without A Plan

He came to school the next day without a plan. It wasn’t unusual for him, he never had a plan. Not for making tacos, or doing his homework. Johnny would do all of these, of course, but he would leave his mind open until the moment seemed perfect.

During the passing periods, and lunch break Johnny walked slower, just to make sure he didn’t miss her. He never found her. He thought that maybe tomorrow he would, until the bell rang at the end of the day and she was walking down the hallway. Might as well give it a shot, right?

“Hey, Spencer?”, he said after catching up with her.

“Hey, Johnny… How’s life?”, she said while looking curiously at the huge amount of people going down the stairs.

“It’s good. I was wondering if you wanted to finish our discussion about photography sometime.”, he said, trying to figure out what she was thinking.

“I would like that.”, she stopped in front of the art class and that’s when Johnny realized that she was needing to talk to a teacher.

“Great, lunch, tomorrow?”

“Sure.”
