There was a pretty girl at your school that you'd always try to talk to. Her name was Grace Mayhews.

She was an 11th grader, and you were merely a freshman. She had the curliest platinum blonde hair that always bounced when she walked, pretty blue eyes, full pink lips... she was gorgeous.

However, she had a boyfriend. She always gave him a kiss on the cheek, etc. You were sort of upset by it, but it also crushed your heart. You even wanted to take her to the dance that the school was holding, but her boyfriend already bought her tickets...

You were sitting in the courtyard at lunch, quietly reading a book while munching on some snacks you had. You kept thinking about Grace, as your book was describing a girl similar to her.

Even with a BOOK describing a girl, you felt upset. You closed it and put it away, then put your head down.

You felt a small tap on your back, and you turned and saw Grace standing there.

"Hey," she said, a slight smile on her lips. "You need a little friend to sit with?"
