love at NOT first sight chapter 5

my love for Ethan keeps growing, well i think im actually not sure, right now its more of a mini crush sort of thing, im sitting in my seat doing the math-work mr.brent assigned for us. i keep seeing this kid, right beside of Ethan staring at me, Jane hasn’t been causing me trouble, although my heartbeat drums loudly when im with Ethan. “alright everyone pass the math sheets forward”, mr.brent says everyone obeys and starts giving them up, “ah! mr.ethan back at it with right answers!”, mr.brent says cheerfully. “on the other-hand, looks like the zombie squirrels got to Olivia work”, mr.brent says cheerfully, my face gets red “sorry” i say awkwardly, he smiles “just buy some zombie squirrel repellent next time alright?”. mr.brent says in a happy tone, i nod my head, thats what i like about mr.brent hes funny, “although you seem like you had good sleep”. mr.brent says, “yeah if i keep getting sung serenades ill get amazing sleep”, i say happily i turn my head, yep just as i thought Ethan is blushing, “oh serenades?, who’s singing you serenades?” mr.brent, blush spreads evenly onto my face “a certain, handsome cute boy”. i say with a huge smile, Ethan looks like someone splattered a tomato onto his face, everyone starts oohing and awwing, “very nice love is a magical thing”. mr.brent says cheery, my face then turns bright red, “hehe anyway!, lets continue” he says, we then work some more then switch to ela, “hello poets!, we will be writing poems”. the teacher says, “you may make any kind of poem” they say, my mind switches on, ill make a love poem about Ethan!, my face blushes immediately from the thought of that. i grab a paper, i then finely sharpen my pencil, i get to writing “hey Ethan, who’re you making a poem for”. a kid says, “Olivia- i mean uh..” Ethan speaks then he tries changing it around, the kid awe’s then he walks to me, “what about you? who is it for?” he asks. “e-Ethan of course” i say while intensely blushing, Ethan looks at me he is blushing intensely but hes smiling, i pick up my water-bottle to get a drink, when the water’s in my mouth. thats when he says, “so have you guys kissed yet?”, immediately when he says that, i choke on my water from sudden shock, i start coughing “are you okay?” he asks me. “well, is choking on water okay?”, i ask him he laughs, “no not at all” he says, he then gets moved out of the way, “hey Olivia you look cute today” some guy says while smiling. i feel.. uncomfortable, “you must be the sun, cause you brighten up my day with that beautiful smile of yours”, he says, “uh.. sorry but i like someone” i say awkwardly. when i say that i blush furiously, “oh? is that so?, must be that ugly jerk you call Ethan” he says, thats when i get up “…” i say quiet, “WHAT DID YOU SAY?!” i yell in his face. he steps back, my words have stunned him, “im so much better, cuter, more handsome, anything” he says with a smile, “unlike Ethan- hey?!” he says to me, i walk to Ethan. “hes better” i say, the guy curls his eyebrows, “so what? hes more your type?” he asks, i nod “exactly” i say, the guy then smiles.. suspiciously “prove it” he says, i blush insanely. “fine!” i say, i then grab ethans shoulder and give him a peck on the cheek, Ethan is taller then me so i have to grab his shoulder to give me a little boost, the guys mouth drops. everyone stares, everyone awe’s as well, Ethan is puzzled his mouth is wide open and hes blushing insanely, i then let go and look at the other guy “i d-d-..” im so embarrassed that i did that in front of everyone. i cant even speak!, “o-o-Olivia” Ethan says, hes blushing so much but hes smiling hugely, “y-you.. k-kissed me” he says nervously. hes so nervous hes fidgeting with his hair, hes staring at the ground with a huge smile, “you’re so cute!” he says he then gives me a huge hug, and embarrassingly the teacher walks, she looks at us weirdly. then she looks at her coffee cup, “i.. think i need more coffee”, she says then she turns to the door and walks out, “you are s-so lovely dovey today”. i say while smiling at Ethan, “do you.. like me Olivia?” Ethan asks me, my face turns extremely red, “i n-n-need the bathroom!” i say nervously i then run out. “j’aime tellement cette fille” i hear Ethan say, i think its cool Ethan speaks different languages sometimes, im standing in the bathroom, my face looks like someone poured paint onto it. after cooling down, i return except class is now over, so its recess when im outside Ethan walks up to me, “hey sorry if i upset you” he says, “you didn’t upset me” i say. “i liked y-your kiss though”, Ethan says nervously, i smile “i l-liked it to” i say, after a moment of silence he speaks, “wanna play soccer?” he asks, “i haven’t played before” i say. he smiles, “well want me to teach you?” he asks, i nod my head, we go to a open field, “you kick it” he says, i stare blankly at the ball, i walk up to it and give it a kick “there you go!”. he says happily, “but you need more force” he says, i look at it and run fastly, i give it a kick but end up missing, i fall on the ground “ow!” i yell out, Ethan walks to me. “that happens a lot, are you alright?”, he asks me, he extends a hand to me, i grab it and stand up, “soccer is pretty fun!” i said excitedly, i run to the ball again and kick it as hard as i can. “woah! Olivia good job!”, Ethan says waving his hands around excitedly, i smile “thanks” i say, the whistle to go inside sounds into the air, i grab the ball and run with Ethan to the doors. we then head inside, we have some more classes then schools out, before i could predict it schools out, me and Ethan walk together, “where do i buy a soccer-ball?”. i ask Ethan curiously, he smiles “at any store” he says, i then sigh “im broke” i say while laughing, Ethan then reaches into his pocket and pulls out a wallet, “here have 15 bucks”. he says, he then hands me the money, “are you sure?” i ask with shock, he nods his head “of course”, he says while smiling sweetly at me, “also theirs a field trip in two months”. Ethan says, we continue walking thats when i spot the dollar store. “you gonna head in?”, Ethan asks me, i nod my head “yeah im gonna buy a soccer-ball”, i say Ethan smiles, “did i perhaps get you into soccer?”, he asks me with a smile, “yeah, its not the only thing you got me into”. i say with blush on my face, Ethan tilts his head at me, “what do you mean?” he asks, my face turns redder due to awkwardness, my attempt at flirting totally failed!. i feel like i can fall in a pit from embarrassment, “uh.. hehe nothing..”, i say awkwardly with fake laughter, way to go Olivia! just.. had to make a loser out of ya!. Ethan shrugs, “so.. where are the soccer balls?”, i ask Ethan, he grabs my hand, my face turns super red, “w-w-wah! m-m-my hand!” i say awkwardly while looking like a firetruck. Ethan looks at me, he blushes slightly he smiles, “im holding your hand i know, im leading you to the soccer balls”, he says sweetly to me, if he keeps being this sweet. i’d fell for him more that instant, we then end up in the soccer-ball aisle, i look around and find one i like, “this one” i say, i grab it and go to the cash register, as im paying for it. Ethan says something, and it makes me feel extremely nervous, “hey dad” he says to the person, “n-nice to meet you im Olivia” i say formally to ethans dad, i bow as i say it. “ah, so you’re the one my son has a mini crush on”, his dad says, my ears perk up, “mini crush?” i ask, his dad nods “i think that he really, really likes you Olivia” his dad says. when i look at Ethan hes blushing, “i like him to” i say, after i say it i get embarrassed, “i-im gonna do homework, see ya!” Ethan says quickly then he dashes out “do you like him?, i wont tell him” his dad says so.. i admit the truth. after i purchase the ball i run home, what a amazingly awkward day!.
