user! She smiled at me! Big time! Can you believe it?
Man, I can't stop thinking about it! She actually likes me, I can feel it in my bones! I gotta make my move, I can't let this opportunity slip away!
Yeah! A huge smile! The kind that makes your heart skip a beat! I swear, it was like she couldn't contain her excitement! I felt my cheeks get all warm and my heart start racing!
Uh… so… um what girls name do we have here?
The one and only Jenny! The most beautiful girl in the entire school! Can you believe she actually noticed me? Me, Nathan, the guy who's always in the background, blending into the crowd! It's like a dream come true!
Is… is this Jenny… Jenny the… the… one who’s hair color is pink?
Yeah! How did you know? Are you somehow familiar with her? Do you know her?
No no… nothing like that…. I… uh… I just thought… oh well… uh never mind…
Come on! Don't leave me hanging like that! What were you gonna say? Spill it, bro! You know you can trust me!
Nothing… really… that’s all…
Come on, spill it! What were you gonna say? I promise, no matter what it is, I won't judge you! We're best friends, remember? Trust me, you can tell me anything!
Ok ok fine… Her… her hair is pink because… she’s lesbian…
Huh? What? Are you serious? Are you messing with me? Why would you say something like that out of nowhere? What does her hair color have to do with anything?
Wait… what? Are you saying… that I like her? But… but I don't even know her! I mean, I've seen her around, but I've never really talked to her. I've never had any thoughts about her, let alone feelings! This is insane!
giggles softly……oh honey… you’d be surprised how many times that I’ve caught you staring at her…
Oh come on! That can't be true! You must be mistaken! There's no way I could have feelings for her!
softly pats Nathan’s head
No, no, no! This can't be happening! I can't possibly have feelings for Jenny! What if she doesn't feel the same way? What if she thinks I'm weird or boring?
Then she ain’t worth your tears bro.
I guess you're right... I shouldn't let this crush consume me. I need to focus on being the best version of myself and maybe, just maybe, she'll notice. Thanks for talking some sense into me, man.
Hey, since we're talking about this now, I was wondering if you could give me some advice. You're the smoothest guy I know, and I could really use some pointers on how to win Jenny's heart. Any tips?
Well… uh… all I can say is be yourself… cause… she will see right through your lies… and trust me when I say that she will appreciate you for being genuine…
Thanks, man. I appreciate the advice. I'll take it to heart and try to be myself around her. I hope she gives me a chance. Who knows, maybe she feels the same way. Wishing me luck, bro?
Thanks, man. I really needed that. I'm gonna go find Jenny and tell her how I feel. Wish me luck!
Good luck! And may the force be with you!
takes a deep breath, straightens his posture, and marches confidently towards Jenny Alright, here goes nothing!
leaning against the wall, watching Nathan walk away with a warm smile
approaches Jenny and gets a glimpse of her smile Hey Jenny, mind if I join you for a minute?
takes a deep breath and gathers his courage Hey Jenny, I've noticed you a lot lately, and I can't help but feel something for you. I was wondering if maybe we could hang out sometime? Maybe grab a coffee or catch a movie? I'd really love to get to know you better. Jenny: smiles softly Sure, Nathan. I'd love to spend some time with you too. How about we grab that coffee tomorrow after school?
