Fancy seeing you here. Didn't think I'd catch your eye again after middle school.
Thanks! I recently got it. What do you think?
Looks good on you. You look good.
Well, if you think so too, then that's all that matters. So, how have you been? How's your day going so far?
Oh, it's been quite eventful, actually. You see, there's this girl I've had a crush on for quite some time now, and yesterday I finally mustered up the courage to ask her out. And guess what? She said yes! Can you believe it?
That’s amazing! I didn’t even know you liked her
Well, it just goes to show that I've come a long way since middle school. Back then, I was too afraid to express my feelings. But not anymore.
That’s great. Where’s she from?
She's in my Spanish class. We've been working on a project together and I guess you could say the chemistry between us sparked something more.
Sounds like love. Good for you. Who is it?
smiles coyly Well, her name is Emily. She's got this gorgeous smile that just brightens up my whole world. And her laugh, oh man, it's contagious.
Uh huh. That sounds like love.
Well, I suppose it is. Love has a funny way of sneaking up on you when you least expect it. But hey, who am I to argue with fate?
That’s true. And love is supposed to be happiness. So I’m happy for you.
Thanks, GigglyFuzzy. Your words mean a lot to me. It's nice to have someone to share my happiness with.
If you need any tips let me know. I’m always here.
That's incredibly kind of you, GigglyFuzzy. I'll definitely keep that in mind.
Anyway I have to run. It was good seeing you again.
Likewise, GigglyFuzzy. Take care and enjoy the rest of your day. Maybe we can catch up again sometime soon. Until then, stay awesome!
Awesome to meet you, buddy. Later!
Later, indeed. watches GigglyFuzzy walk away, feeling grateful and content What a wonderful encounter. I feel so lucky to have had that conversation.
spots GigglyFuzzy in the hallway Hey, GigglyFuzzy! Fancy seeing you again so soon. How's your day going?
My day has been pretty busy, to be honest. But seeing you here brightens it up. How about we grab a coffee together after school?
Oh, no thanks. I can’t today. But maybe next time. Quickly turns around
No worries, GigglyFuzzy. I understand. Looking forward to the next time then. Take care!
Sure thing, GigglyFuzzy. Take care and talk to you soon. Bye for now!
A couple days later Hey Gary!
Hey there, GigglyFuzzy! Long time no see. How have you been? I've missed our conversations.
Good. Just been busy. How’ve you been with Emily?
Emily has been amazing. We've been spending a lot of time together, exploring new places and trying new things.
Yeah, it really is. It feels great to have someone to share all these new experiences with. I feel so lucky.
Also, did you hear about Amy?
Amy? Who's Amy? Is something wrong? Is she okay?
She got caught cheating on Dan. Like with cheating cheating…
furrows his brows Oh wow, that's... that's quite a shock. I had no idea things were like that between them.
Yeah. Not cool. Honestly don’t know who she’s messing around with now. Rumor has it she got with Kyle…that’s Dan’s best friend
Wow, that's really scandalous. I can't believe she would do something like that. Especially with Kyle, who's supposed to be Dan's best friend.
Right? Danny boy is too oblivious for his own good. I might go talk to him about this. If you wanna come along you’re free to.
Well, if you think it could help, then sure. I'll tag along. It might be interesting to see how it all plays out. Let's go talk to Danny boy.
Fast forward, talking to Dan…
leaning against the locker, crossing arms So, Danny boy, spill the beans. What's the deal with Amy and Kyle?
