Why me? But then again, I don't mind.
Am I ignorant? Am I so oblivious to what is going on around me that I can't take the time to notice what events are going on? It is starting to become clear to me that all of the above are true. It started today in gym.
Lydia and I were walking into the locker room together, since we just came from orchestra. She blankly asks, "You still haven't figured out who likes you?"
We had already touched upon this subject at least twice before. She said she didn't know who liked me, or so I thought. I replied with a suspicious no before pestering her about the subject. It didn't take much. My first guess was a definite "Nick" before Lydia replies, "Yeah, how'd you know?"
It took me awhile to completely let those words sink in. My first word was an explosive, "What??" I mean, of course I had suspected this fact before, but I never gave it that much thought before putting it out of my mind. Sam walks by, singing as usual, and then I say, "Nick likes me?!" and she stares at me without saying anything and then she's like, "Um..maybe.." and so I am standing in the same room with people who have known for all this time. Lydia then starts talking about when I sat by him while playing my solo and ensemble piece and mentions he was blushing and I started laughing. I looked at Sam, who finally gives in and tells me yeah, he likes me. Remember that secret admirer note thing that she wrote? Well, Sam gave it to him to give to me. But when she did that, it turns out she told her he liked me and I am taking this all in and AHH. That note was given to me the day before winter break. Seems like everyone likes other people in December. Like last year with me and Alex, and David and Annie..that was funny.
But Nick likes me? Oh by the way, sorry for any confusion, I was talking about Nick Nooney. Because there's no way Nick Campbell would like me. Haha. Yeah right. So I tried to keep the fact quiet but now there's an extensive list of people who know. Sam, Lydia, Annie, Addy, Hillary, Beaner, Cherokee, Alex all know. I'm trying not to tell anyone else because if he finds out I knew all this time, he'll feel bad that everyone else knew and there's so much confusion. There's no one else I can tell, and I'm even starting to think telling Alex was a pretty bad idea. Everytime Nick does so much as look at me he's all, "Ooh, check out who's looking your way" and so I have to say loudly, "Alex, guess who's sick today! She's not in school and I'll bet she wants to be just so someone can give her a big hug!" So then he gets all quiet and has that shut up, shut up... look on his face.
I shouldn't make such a big deal out of this. So what if Nick likes me? He's a great person. I mean, I can see why he chose me out of all the girls in the school. Can you tell me one other person who has been so blessed with good looks, charming personality, incredible talent, and a superior intellect? You know, if I don't say so myself. I think I'm gonna go eat another drumstick. Even though there's hardly any vanilla ice cream in the Blue Bunny kinds.
