Leading Different Lives-6

The halls were crowded when I walked into school Monday morning, both excited and anxious of seeing Derek again. I hadn't called him since the date, and I didn't remeber his number anyway. But now, there was no escaping him.
What's he going to do? Is he going to talk to me? Pretend like nothing happened? Ask me on another date? Do I even want to go on another date? I asked myself. OF course. stupid question. I dont even know what Im going to say to him. I wonder....
Too late. He walked out from a corner, saw me and smiled, and started to make his way over.
GULP!
"Hi", he said, grinning and flipping his hair. "Hi," I replied, trying(and not succeding) to keep the nervousness out of my voice. "So.. uh.." He attempted to make conversation, but my mind and my mouth suddenly went into overdrive, and all my insecurities that developed from that kiss erupted.
"Derek, what are we doing here? I mean, I liked you. Alot. Remember that? But you blew me off. You found "better" people to hang out with. So I found new friends. We went on seperate paths. Now you want to start the fire again? It doesn't make sense. I enjoyed our date, I had a lot of fun. But where does it go from here? I mean, do you want to ask me out on another date? Do you want to see where this goes? Or was it just a one time thing? Do you regret asking me-" He leans foward and kisses me, right in the open with the everyone watching. When he pulls away, I'm wearing a shocked expression. " I don't think I ever told you this, but you talk WAY too much." He smiled, and offered out his arm." Walk you to class?" "I'd love to" I said dreamily.
As all this was happening, A girl with dyed auburn hair and a look of both snobbery and self-assurance looked on, with her perfectly made-up face curled into a sneer. Her clone friends stood around her, telling her that he's not worth it, he was weird anyway, that she can find someone even better than him. At this comment, she cut them all off. "Its not that he went to someone else. Its that he went to HER. Hes mine, and Ill be damned before anyone, especially HER, forgets that I can have whatever and whoever I want." With a toss of her hair, she walked away, her clones following, but not too closely, behind.
