He's Single!

I was kicking my locker door. I hated the stupid thing, never opened, never shut. Freshman always get the dumb lockers! I finally wrenched it open when my best friend, Anne comes running up and closes it. Smiling.
“Aw Come on Anne! I just got it open, and what are you all smiley about?” I snapped. It was not a good day for me.
“I have great news!” Anne said, ignoring my bad mood.
“What?” I said unenthused.
“Jake!” Anne squeaked.
“What about him?” I said, now getting a little more excited. Jake was the guy I liked in 11th grade.
“He’s single! He broke up with his girlfriend yesterday!” Anne exclaimed, jumping alittle.
“Did you have candy for breakfast or somthing? Cus you’re never this hyper.” I giggled, now in a better mood. I finally managed to open my locker and get my books.
“Maaayybe!” Anne said, swaying a little. We both started for homeroom. “Come on Fay! Why aren’t you excited? You two can finally be together! And I heard that he complimented you the other day!” She smiled.
