Crying backwards, 05

"I dont get why you're so excited about this, I mean you havent even talked to him yet," Cynthia huffed. She was jealous, she had to be. I talked to him, I'd told her that forty times and she didnt believe me. I rolled my eyes secretly under my dark bangs as she pushed her sun glasses up. I rolled my eyes at her sunglasses. We came to the middle of the quad, by the benches where the punk kids hung out and sat down in the sun, joining our group of friends. I lay down on my back and closed my eyes, letting the sun shower my face with its rays and letting the world fall away from me.
A shadow fell across my body and blocked my sun. I frowned absent mindedly and pushed myself up, my eyes still closed. Everyone around me in my circle of friends had gone quiet and I sat up more quickly than I intended, giving myself head rush and bumping my head into something hard.
I moaned, "What the fuck, man?"
"Sorry, I didnt mean to startle you," A deep British accented voice said as I clutched my head. Realizing my eyes were still closed, I opened them quickly and looked up in surprise. Oliver stood hung over me, a red spot forming on the left side of his forehead, prominent against his alabaster skin. I felt myself blush.
"Shit, Oliver. Hi, sorry. I- I....uh, yeah," I stumbled over my words and shook my bangs out of my eyes so I could stare into his clearly. Someone said something to my left. I ignored it and lost myself in Oliver's eyes. I saw his mouth move but nothing registered in my brain that he was talking. To me. He was talking to me, here in front of everyone. My stomach gave birth to about a hundred butterflies. He smiled at me questioningly.
"Sorry I didnt-" I started, but was interrupted by the bell and my friend pulling me away from Oliver. I looked at him sadly and he winked. Cynthia materialized on my left side. I gave her a sideways glance and she scoffed. "You're hopeless. Nothing's going to happen between you guys anyway."
I was set on proving her wrong.
