This is a story about a crush, and you. The setting is a rainy bus stop, and you're waiting to get to school under your umbrella.

The rain drizzled lightly to the ground. Alone, you are waiting at your bus stop. You hear running footsteps approaching and you look up to see your crush. "Hey, aren't you at the other bus stop?" You ask, starting to tense up. "Yeahhh, I sorta missed the bus and had to come here.." Your crush chuckled a bit as they held the back of their, wet neck. You gaze at their smile before quickly catching yourself staring, turning your head the other way. An awkward silence fills the air around them. You start up a conversation but asking how they had missed the bus. "I slept in, why do you ask?" They question curiously. You tense up again, "OH I was just wondering!" Your crush smiles softly at you.

The bus comes.

You walk up the steps of the bus before sitting in your seat, seeing that the person who sits on the inside is absent today. You then feel some water and a heavy (THUMP), on your seat. You turn your head to see your crush sitting beside you. "Hey, again.." They say. You can feel your heartbeat speed up. "O-oh. Hello." You sit there awkwardly, not knowing how to gesture you're hands or show body language in general. You scoot closer to the window, giving your crush more room to sit, and instead they came closer to you. You freeze up. "Oh um..-" You stutter. "Spit out your words love." They say. You wake up to your crush gently shaking you awake. "Hey, um.. lady.. (or man)... we are at school.." You realize what they said wasn't real, but they did sit by you. "WAIT... DID THEY SEE M**E SLEEPING??" You think to yourself. "**HOLY SH-"

the bell rings.

Your learning about Greek mythology. (At the end of class)"Your homework tonight is doing an essay about one Greek God or goddess." You see a note be passed to your desk from the person behind you. You open it up. "Hey it's the dude you sat by on the bus. I was wondering if you could do my project. I'm thinking Zeus or Aphrodite." You write "sure.", trying to be casual while freaking out. "You're dismissed." The teacher says. You turn back to your crush and they give you their history folder. You stuff it in your bookbag.

(Skip the whole day to the bus taking kids home)

You sit by your crush again and they ask you if you've started on the project. "Yeah. I started in study hall." "Great." He says. "What if I go to your place and maybe help a bit with it? I kinda feel bad for making you do EVERYTHING." You sit and stare in pure disbelief. "I mean I don't have t-" "Of COURSE your could come!!" You say, cutting him off. "Neat. see you after school then!!" He says while standing up to walk off the *bus. Your sitting in the seat, curled up, and a blushing mess.

(Time skip*)

KNOCK KNOCK

"Oh, wsp?" You're crush says, standing in your doorframe. Your welcome them in and they walk into you're room. "HOLY CRAP DUDE I HAVE THAT TOO!?" You both start freaking out and talking for a while about (insert favorite subject) for hours, forgetting the time, laughing it away. "Shit. We still gotta do this project." You say. "That's fine! It'll be easy." You're crush says confidently. It wasn't easy. You two huddle closer to see the presentation on the small laptop screen, on your bed. It was like a dream. You both go to press the next slide and touch hands accidentally. "I- I'm sorry." You guys stare at each other for a second. You look at the time. 1:06 "Dude you better get home soon. You're parents gonna think you doing something freaky." They giggle at what I said, they got up and collected their stuff. "I'll see you tomorrow." They say before leaving. The door closes and you're rolling, and kicking your feet while as red as a tomato. You shove your face into your pillow. "See you tomorrow.."
