~*Basketball

Once my sewing class was over, i headed towards my locker and grabbed the extra work for study hall. Wrapped around my wrist was a head ban. Durable for one, not really ment to be one, but hey, when i made it i thought it would be of some use. It had snowflakes and pink dots all over it, and looking at it made me feel succesful in my most failed class.
I entered the classroom and everyone was making snowflakes. I did say i would rather finish the extra work i have and do that later. Once i sat down, Edward and Tanner walk in. Then Ariana.
'Man, you must really suck at sewing if you only came in with that.'
She pointed directly at the head ban.
Oh. Well, i did finish my pajama pants, but i messed up on the crotch.
Then Edward joined in, and i guess Tanner thought it would be OK for him to walk in the conversation, or steal what was on my wrist. He wore it has a head band, it made his hair stick up, it reminded me of the slim jim guy.
'i'll wear this to the Basketball game tonight! This will make me play good!'
'No Tanner, everyone will laugh at us!'
Edward pleaded.
As they started to run around the room, i thought i should've reclaimed what was mine, but i worked instead. I ignored it. But when Hailey started to pull on it, Tanner pulling it back, i snapped at her. I swear, if she tore that, i would be sooooo angry. Sewing isn't easy folks!
She just got her braces off today and she's getting a high head. Today she even started making a list, like a number list to who's the cutest girl. Wtf?
But anyways, i later on ignored that. But i had second thoughts, was he really going to wear that. It was mine; and well, i couldn't make up my mind to take it or not. When the boys were going to leave early to get ready for the basketball game, i followed behind Tanner to the hallways. Thoughts wandered.
Wait, Tanner, my-
'I think i'm gonna wear it to the basketball game.'
Are you sure, Edward was right. . . Actually, no, take it, i don't care what they think.
'Eh, i'll give it back later.'
But somewhat, i was just worried. A silly little thought, that he might get it sweaty, so i playfully ran towards him to grab it. That's when he got me. He basically grasped me in some hug.
That's when i kind of freaked in my head.
OH. MY. GOD. He's hugging me?
Not like, -squeal- kind of hug, more like, when was the last time we hugged, my friend?
But this somewhat scared me. It was random. But it made me feel happy, i don't know why, but this just means that whatever felt bad about something, felt just OK and silly.
I could smell his cologne and it was driving me insane. It was so strong, i mean, hello? Body-to-body. The cologne just smelled so much stronger. Also, i wasn't cold anymore.
I didn't find so much of this romantic. It felt nice though. Made me happy.
I raised my arms to his chest so i can push myself away, he fought the urge to let go, then let go slowly. The way he let go of me was a bit dramatic, i started to laugh. I can see it in his expression:
Was it not that good?
Then he said goodbye, and i waved back smiling. I turned to the side, we were holding each other in front of the window of the class. Thank god no one saw.
Suddenly, it got cold so i ran inside.
It felt good to know nothing was weird between us, this just ment me and Tanner were still close friends. There was the possibilty of him still liking me, i didn't care. I'd just give him what he wants. I feel kind of stupid.
When i sat down, my heart rate went up as people asked why was my cheeks were so red.
My head was spinning.
My own personal heater ran to the repairman.
