*2* Falling in love

January.17.200?
Gym class at school


Me and my friends love gym class, eve though we suck at every sports game there is. We look like idiots sometimes, well most of the time when we try too hard following and kicking the ball in football, and jumping around in basket and volley ball.

Well, that day was vaccination day, and it was held during gym class so we did not exactly play anything. We took a ball from the store room and started to kick it around the playground with each other while our turn comes for the vaccination. The boys were doing the same thing on their own on the other side of the playground.

One of the girls, Lateefa, kept the ball to herself and diddn't pass it, so we had to chase her around. Summer, my best friend caught her and put her arms around her stomache to make sure she can't run away again, and called another girl so she could come and take the ball form her hands.

She saw the girl approaching her, and threw the ball away wich happend to be coming straight to my face and hit my my nose very hard!

The look on my face was hilarious, I was told. My nose hurt so badly, it became numb within a few minutes. I put my hands on my nose to cover my face. Summer let Lateefa go and came to see if I was okay, a couple of girls gathered around me as well. I know it's nothing serious though.

I heard a guy's voice next to me;

"Ta3awartay?" he asked and was trying not to laugh, probably on the way my face looked with all that was happening.

I moved my hand away from my face and looked up . I saw him standing there next to me,with a slight smile. Summer had her hand on my shoulder, and the girls next to me were looking at him too, nothing bitchy though, just friendly looks with a question mark on each face.



? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?



I looked at him. He was beuatifull. How come i never noticed him before? He had black hair, and behind his glasses were the most amazing light brown eyes i have ever seen.

I realized that I had to answer him, he wasn't standing there for no reason, I was like:

"uhh..hehe..La 3ady" I said as I was still looking at him, I tried to smile but i couldn't 'cause my nose hurt me when I did.

He smiled and went to get the ball him and his friends were playing with.
I tried to smile back again, I forgot that

The teacher called us to line up in alphabetical order next to the nurse's office, I was always the last one on the list, since kindergarten. Me, Summer and two other friends; Badreya and Mariam were gathered near a desk outside the nurse's office. I sat on the desk, I stared at the ground, thinking of that boy. I don't know what his name is, it's either Ghazi or Meshary, two identical twin brothers in our year group. I never bothered to distinguish between them , I don't know the difference. I know one of them was with me in most of my classes, and i'm not sure is it's the same one who's with me in the rest of my classes.

He was so sweet to ask me if I was okay just like that. Why did he talk to me? We have never spoken before, ever.
Alot of guys have been sweet to me before, and it wasn't a big deal. But this time seems different..

My thoughts were interrupted when Summer came and squeezed herself next to me.

"My legs hurt, I'm tierd.." She began complaining

"That boy..which twin is he?" I asked

"Ghazi" she answered

"Hm.."

After everyone was done with the vaccination, everyone held a cotton bud on theyr shoulder at the place of the injection while we made our way to the changing rooms. The playground was empty except for us girls, the boys have finished before us.

"That diddn't hurt at all!" said Badreya

"Hehe, yea" I agreed

"Oh my god Shoug you were so funny! everytime the nurse comes near you so that she can inject you, you looked the other way holding your sleeves up and backed away..Your eyes were closed so tight and you started to make puppy noises! your face was so funny you should've seen it" Said Badreya making a stupid face trying to imitate me.

"Hehe, shut up!"

"Haha, you pissed her off for sure Shoug" added Mariam

"Haha, mishkelat'ha." I said confidently.

"What do we have next?" asked Mariam

"History" replied Summer.

"Aaaaaah."
"waaii3" cried Badreya and Mariam

When we got to the stairs, I had a flashback of something that made me smile, I decided to share it with Badreya and the rest.

"Haha, Bee remember back in eighth grade when we offered to return the equipment basket at the end of every gym class and then took turns to sit on it and slide down the stairs"

Me and Bee laughed at the memory, while the others just found it stupid and laughed.

"Haha yea oh my god and the teacher thought it was 'kind' of us to help out at the end of every lesson" sad Bee

"Yup, well it was!"

We changed back to our school uniforms and headed to history lesson. Bee and I were in the same class, and we were always late because by the time we reach the changing rooms, the bell would have just rang, and it takes time for us to get dressed and then sweep our feet off the playground with every step carrying heavy book bags and a gym bag, until we reach the never ending flight of stairs..and then finally reached the classroom, flinging the door open with one hand, and just stand there waiting for the teacher to lecture as and ask us questions about our tardiness..It's the same routine every Tuesday after gym class.

I enjoyed history class. I like having general knoledge wich may benefit me in the future. I find it interesting as well. So I have no problems with the subject what so ever.

I sat in the front row near the teacher's desk. I was exhausted, so I put my head down on the desk. Then I thought about Ghazi, heknown as the shy guy at school and does not socialize alot with girls, so it was really nice and sweet of him to come and ask me if I was okay just like that, we have never talked before, ever.
Alot of guys have been nice and sweet to me before, but somethig is different this time..I've had lots of crushes before, and guys crushing on me, 1 ex..or 1 and a half..?!
