Hummingbird Heartbeat
Chapter 2
As the bus pulled into my school I started walking off. My knees were shaking and all i could think
was pull yourself together. If you see him just tell him how you feel, he will understand. I walked
through the double doors that leads into the main entrance of my high school. Everyone I knew
was rushing around like usual to get to their stuff for class. I saw my other good friend Emily
arguing with my other good friend Jenna about who was a better singer Taylor Swift or Lady
Gaga. Sarah and I met up with them and we headed towards are lockers. We passed are friends
and said hello. But everyone could tell I was distracted by something. I was focused on finding
Steven. Everyone I knew seemed to be crowding around me. I just wanted to find him and talk
and hear his voice. I finally broke out from the crowd and made it to my locker. I checked my
long wavy hair in the mirror when someone shut my locker.
"Hey what's your problem..." then I stopped, Steven was leaning against my locker. Between his
shinning smile, messy brown hair, and dark eyes I could have kissed him right then. But of course
I didn't.
"Hey Em why were you looking in the mirror, your hair looks great!" He whispered while he
twirled my hair between his fingers. I blushed I could help myself. He's the only one that calls
me Em.
"Stop Steven won't Brianna get mad?!" I questioned, he turned away and let out a sigh.
"Em I meant to ask you about that. So I kinda like her, and I wanted to know if you were okay
with that?" my heart sank into my stomach. But some how I managed to answer him."
"You know I don't get along with her but what ever makes you happy."
"But Em what makes you happy?" he responds
"I'm happy with what ever makes you happy." He's shocked by my answer. At that moment I feel
like he knows I like him but he's a guy he's not smart enough to figure that out. So he just says
"Your the best" and gives me a big hug. And in that moment I'm happy.
