As the teacher announced the partnership activity, my heart sank. I could feel everyone's eyes on me. Every step I took, every movement I made was amplified, scrutinized by the watchful eyes around me. Slowly, I looked around the classroom, searching for my fate. That's when I noticed the beautiful girl across the room. You. As I reached my desk, our eyes met, and a shiver ran down my spine. I couldn't help but wonder if you were afraid of me, too.
