I have a huge crush on this guy. He’s part of the school’s band, almost everyone is a friend of him, he’s really nice and smart. Maybe those are also the reasons why a lot of other girls in school like him too.
Anyway, me and my friend made our way to the cafeteria one day. It was a pretty huge place. I got my food, same to hers (my friend) so the only thing we need to do is find a place to sit. So I looked around, only to see that my crush was a couple feet away from me. He was with his bandmates, preparing the stage. Turns out, they’re performing a couple songs until lunch ends. There was a table near them and my friend pulled me. We sat facing the stage and me having a really nice from where I sat.
A couple minutes later, Crush was testing the microphone. He was roaming around the cafeteria, checking if the sound systems were working properly while still mic testing.
He stood near the stage for a while until he started to walk again. I thought he was just gonna walk past us so I didn’t mind him and kept eating.
Next thing I know, he took a chair and sat beside me. (Not really beside me but I was on the long part of the table and he was on the edge, the short end)
Literally I almost choked on my food. Fortunately, I hold it in but I still couldn’t process in my mind what the actual f*** is happening.
“Hey.” He greeted, with a silly smirk on his face.
Awkward me stuttered to say a word back whereas my friend was going to the chill side. Probably she knows I was freaking out in the inside already.
He sat with us for like 10 minutes I guess and I swear I saw other girls threw daggers at me with their glares. Jealous b****** but I mean, I don’t even deserve this thing to happen to me. At first, he asked what time will our lunch end and I was like looking at my watch, “thinking how to read time again?” Then it went about college since we’re seniors. I swear he frowned when I answered him that I might go to a uni quite far from here. 10 minutes later, he was called to play up front. Me and my friend cheered on him.
He was playing the drums in two songs and also the beatbox in one song. That smile on his handsome face was so contagious. You could see the happiness he feels while playing up there.
We got to finish all three songs of theirs before we head back to our classes. Crush was busy with putting stuff away so I didn’t get the chance to tell him that he was great while playing his instruments.
Later after me and my friend we’re alone again, I asked her what happened to me earlier? What did I look like?
“You were tomato red. Like it was really obvious. Then you even choked-”
“Almost.”
“-which makes it more obvious that you have a crush on him. You’re a dead man.”
“I’m a dead man.” I said, realizing I was being too obvious around someone I really like and that maybe he’s only teasing me (remember the smirk?).
I mentally facepalmed myself. I am doomed.
