Ray...

Ray, Ray, Ray! His name just flew off my tongue whenever the girls

were around and suddenly someone new to the group was added, Jenny

now had a friend Jessica. I never knew how she looked at Ray

because my eyes were on him. Walking down our halls He would always

cross me and I would slowly close my locker to stare at him right

when he passed and our eyes would lock for even just a moment my

breath would be taken away as if the world stopped when he walked by.

But one morning I stopped and I looked at him and stopped him stood

right in front of him “Ray!” I remember speaking sweetly to him

as if my words were honey to him. “Ray wants to walk me home with

the group?” He stopped and leaned into my ears making them hot and

red as I held my books in my hand. “Of course Mina. I will walk

with you home, your what like a few streets away from me?” Nodding

as he spoke to me in his tongue that was sly and sleek as satin to my

ears. “Oh well, then I guess you should walk me home make sure I am

safe walking home.” He smiled at me and I felt like just maybe

things would go perfect. I couldn't wait to see him and I was off to

choir class. Standing next to Devin with her blue eyes and blonde

soft hair. Singing and talking to her so the teacher couldn't hear

what we were saying next to each other not paying attention to

who was listening. Not realizing that this would get me into trouble

in the near future. “Devin! Guess what?” She sang back in low

tones so we could talk. “What happened Mina?” I smiled and sun

the next words of the song so clearly to only whisper in the next

beat of the song. “I finally asked him to walk me home Ray!” I

couldn't contain the joy on my face.” Oh that is good Mina, what did

he say?” turning to her and accidentally got the attention of

the class as the teacher called me out “Mina! Are you paying

attention to your tone, are you even singing the right words?”

Flushing red as I was called out in between the class “Oh sorry

Teacher my mouth was a bit dry and I lost focus.” The teacher

clapped her hands “Alright miss, Mina please get water and get

back to class.” Looking to Devin and nodding knowing that I would

tell her after getting water, I stepped out to the hall and there he

was too getting water from the fountain as well. The door slammed

behind me making my presence known he looked worried like he got

caught by a teacher then realized it was me. “Mina! Getting

water?” smiling walking slowly to him as I wore a cute printed top

and a pair of shorts with sneakers. “Oh wouldn't you like to know ,

but yes, yes am getting water. But you look like you got caught

skipping class.” I teased him as he pulled out his pass “Oh yeah

I just happen to have my pass right here little Mina, and what if I

was what are you going to do about it?” I smiled and smirked with a

face red as cherries. “Oh well then I would have, to tell you to get

back to class. I wouldn’t want you to get into trouble, you know If

you even knew what I thought about you, I bet you wouldn’t even

miss any classes.” Jessica at the door and coming out of the class,

“Mina the teacher said to hurry water shouldn’t take that long.”

I looked to her and sighed in discomfort and belief the little time I

had with him was getting cut short. Passing right in front of him to

grab water from the fountain. A quick drink as I sipped the water

through my lips was refreshing to the heat of our encounter and

embarrassment earlier, turning and tapping my pass at his chest.

“Well just remember you have to walk me home now.” winking as I

turned with a light skip knowing he was looking at me with a flushed

face as I turned to him and waved right in front of Jessica to him.

Jessica grabbed my arm “Mina what was that all about?” I was red

and stuttered. “Oh nothing just was talking to Ray, you know Ray

he's a really nice guy you know, you should like him one day maybe he

will join our group and we all can hang out together.” Jessica

looked confused and off to me her eyes looked at me with a hate I

didn't understand as she gripped at my arms hard “You know I hear

Ray is a bad boy you never know, just don’t like him promise me.”

I was confused and just nodded her statement confusing me at the

moment. “Alright, Jessica let's get back to class.”But I knew I

wouldn't give him up no matter what.
