5. Making the First Move

"Get out of here Anthony," I cried.

"Huh? Me? But I was here first," Anthony Turner responded and looked at me quizzically.

"No not you. This Anthony!" I pointed at the imbecile who stood in front of me.

Anthony Dean grinned. "Just call me Tony if it's messing with your brain that much," Anthony aka Tony said.

"Okay, Tony...please leave. I'm trying to have a private conversation with Anthony," I said.

"Well now all three of us are having a conversation," Tony pulled up a chair and sat in front of us. The nerve of this boy!

"Eh...guys... it's great that you are eager to talk to me but I've gotta finish my homework," Anthony said and pointed at the laptop.

"Oh come on, stop being a nerd, Summer has something important to tell you, let's hear it Summer," Tony smirked.

I see what this jerk is doing. He is trying to make me more nervous and uncomfortable by staring at me while I ask Anthony out. Well, I won't be defeated and let him sabotage this. He can kiss my...

"What did you want to ask me, Summer?" Anthony asked me, interrupting my thought process. He looked at me curiously.

"Well...um...The Fall Festival!" I exclaimed all of a sudden.

"Huh? What about it?" he asked.

"Would you wanna...maybe...go with me?" I asked. There, I did it.

"Awe she just asked you on a date. I can't wait for your answer, Turner," Tony cooed from the side. I glared at him. I forgot he was sitting there.

"Eh...well about that," Anthony hesitated.

"You don't have to say yes if you don't want to!" I said quickly. Please say yes, please say yes!

"Sure, what the heck?" Anthony shrugged.

"Great! I'll see you there," I said and got up.

"That's so cute. I can't wait to see how this relationship progresses. Can I be the best man at your wedding?" Tony grinned.

"I'll see you later Anthony. Excuse us," I said and grabbed Tony's t-shirt then dragged him out of the cafe.

"What is your problem?" I barked.

"What do you mean?" he asked innocently.

"Why were you hovering over me and Anthony, making smart ass comments?" I asked angrily.

"I was just showing my support for the two love birds. What's your problem chica?" Tony feigned confusion.

"Ugh! Never mind. You are so annoying. I am going home," I shook my head and took my phone out to call an uber.

"I'll drop you off," he said and took my phone away.

"Dude! Don't you have anything better to do?" I asked.

"I am bored," he shrugged.

"Fine, I'll let you drop me off since you dragged me out here in the first place," I said, giving up.

Luckily, Tony didn't do anything to annoy me on the way to my house. The ride was quiet and peaceful.

"Thanks. You are not so bad when you aren't bullying kids," I said.

"Cool. And you aren't a frigid bitch like I thought you were.

What? Is that what some people think about me at school. I'll admit I turn down guys a lot when they ask me out on dates but I never thought they would form this kind of opinion about me. Does Anthony think of me that way too?
