Not Your Normal Nerd---Chapter 41---Annoyance

Oh Crap! Why did I pick this movie?! I knew I would be crying at the end.

I didn't want Shane to see that. I'll just sit through and not pay attention.

While Shane got the spoon I was thinking. I can't believe we've only known eachother a couple of days. I mused. It's like we've been friends forever.

I feel so comfortable around him even though part of me is aware he's the most attractive guy I've ever seen and part of me feels more...but he will never know that.

He came back a few minutes later, the movie had already started and I hadn't remembered to stop it.

"Awww" he complained "the movie's already started!" after he had handed me the spoon.

"It's okay I'll restart it." This gave me an oppurtunity to see where he would be sitting. Next to me? or On the opposite side?

I scrambled off the couch and skipped back to the last scene.

When I looked up, he was just standing there awkwardly not knowing where to sit obviously either.

I stifled a laugh. "Sit." I pointed.

He laughed "Whatever you say." He quickly snapped his head back up to see where I would be sitting. I had already decided

I sat next to him with about half a foot between us.

He seemed comfortable enough with that and I was too, that way I wouldn't have to be too self-conscious.

He put down the popcorn and got out his own spoon. I looked at it and laughed, looks like I wasn't the only pig.

"Now hand me the carton!" he demanded in a wanna-be serious deep voice.

"here you go!" i said cheerully.

I handed him the half eaten carton. He looked at it and then back to my icecream smeared face and laughed the hardest I've ever seen him laugh.

I scowled at him. I wasn't a pig! What was his problem!

He finally looked at me and shrugged at my expression. "Bee, you know when I handed you the icecream I didn't expect you to eat half of it."

"But as long as I can have the rest I'll be fine." he added.

"I get to have a little more." I said holding back the carton. "Agreed." he replied

I handed it to him reluctantly and he shoved the rest of it down his face. His face was worse than mine. He put his face close to the carton to eat faster and I couldn't help but shove his face into the icecream.

He looked up at me with icecream on his face "You know we're going even with this" he said pointing to his face.

Before I could fully comprehend he shoved the rest in my face. and laughed. So he thought that was funny? I quickly grabbed the sleeve of his shirt and wiped my face on it. Then I smiled sweetly at him.

"Woops." I said smirking.

"ok lets call it fair and let's watch the movie."he said laughing still.

He set aside the icecream and grabbed the popcorn.

We fought over it during the movie but that was fine.

I was actually able to pay attention suprisingly but then again we argued so much it was impossible not to.

But, we both hummed along to the tune and I smiled to myself.

Near the end I started crying. I tried to mask it by hiding half my face in the pillow but he saw.

"Bee, its gonna be okay." he whispered trying to be comforting.

"Yah I know. It's just that its so sad and realistic."

He didn't even bother making fun of me. "Yah I think its supposed to be like that, I mean... even I almost cried." he said attempting to make me feel better.

I laughed "Thanks."

By the end I was done crying and when we turned it off I felt confident.

I wanted to dance. I mean for me this option meant overconfidence. I was a terrible dancer.

I looked over at him and he was still watching credits. I finally got up the courage.."hey Lets dance." i said.

He looked over at me like I was crazy. I ran to turn on the sound system. It turned on to the newest latest songs and I did all the dumbest moves I could think of.

Like the shopping cart, the lawn mower, and the steering wheel.

He watched me and I got a bit self conscious especially since he wasn't laughing.

I ran over to him and pulled at his hand. "Please.." I pleaded with my best puppy-dog face.

He blushed and muttered "Fine." trying to act angry but I knew he was pleased.

I changed the song and started dancing, at first I was too caught up in myself to notice him but then I looked over and almost stopped.

He was the best dancer I had ever seen. He looked good when he danced, he moved to the beat perfectly. I lauged thinking of how dumb I must have looked when I was "dancing"

He must have sensed me staring because he stopped almost immediately. He was watching me watch him and I blushed. "sorry.." i muttered "its fine." he said slowly.

"What's your favorite food?" i asked curiously

"Talk about random! Ummm.....Mexican food!"

Seriously? I can't stand it! but I personally love hot wings!" and we went on and on like that for hours comparing our likes and dislikes favorites.

At 9:00 I looked at time and gasped "umm I gotta go. my mom is gonna be pissed!"

"ohh k i'll see you later then." he muttered. He looked so small and lonely. I couldn't help but step forward and hugged him.

His body stiffened but then he hugged me back and I quickly broke it off and ran out the door.
