I'm Baaaaack.

This is an entry about the events of this week. This is basically what happened on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday =

We're afraid to talk to each other so nothing happened.

NOW the interesting stuff was on yesterday and today.

Just so people don't get confused; Brent says he is friends with her (not the way you think).

Anyway, Thursday went like any other, except for the fact my teacher surprisingly showed one of my movies in photography ^^. After we ate lunch, I was just following Brent around when I saw him go over Amanda's group. I just thought,"*shrug* Okay". Anyway, she saw me, I saw her. Throughout 1-4 minutes of standing near the group with Brent, I was hearing the phrases, "ask out" and "he's right there". And every time I glanced over at her, she was looking at me.

Then, out of nowhere, one of her guy friends points at me (so straight that all I saw was his fingertip) and says, "There he is, do it!'', then I moved to the left and he put his hand down 1 ½ seconds later (so it could've been anyone). At the moment though, I thought nothing of it.

A bit later, I was just talking to Brent's brother, when he walked by with something in his hand. "What is that?" I asked. "Makeup" Brent said. "…who's?" I replied. "Amanda's" he said. "Oh coooool" I thought sarcastically. Then he held it up and (because of bad eyesight) I ducked and silently cursed. Then I looked at it and realize that it is not perfume, because I thought he was going to spray it in my eyes. It was just the… normal, soupy… liquidy… stuff.

Then he says, "Go give it to her, this is your chance." I just refused. So then he just tosses it on the ground near her feet. Then some people (consisting of… just basically Brent's brother) thought it would be "funny" to put the tube on the ground and see if people would come by and step on it and make it explode. >_> I wasn't really paying attention to this, but once I saw it was too late I was just saying that, "You guys are mean…"

That is Thursday.

Now this is Friday.

Ok, normal day. Did my normal @mnda routine. Check for her in morning; look for opportunity at lunch, same, same. Today I thought I would have a good opportunity after school 'cause my dad didn't have to pick me and Andrew up (since he was going to some church thing), and I had to bring my gym clothes home to be washed, so I could just leave Basketball without changing (get a good 3-5 minute head start before the bell rang).

So I went to my locker to get my stuff. About 10-ish spaces away from my locker, a girl I was partially friends with from my English class (I mean, I used to sit next to her and we got along well. You know what I mean, right?) Walks over to the group of her friends and asks, "Have you seen Amanda?" You'll why this is important in a sec…

So I go out in the front of the school (on the left side of the door where there are tables and chairs. So I sat there "waiting" for my dad. As I sat there I watched Amanda mess around with her friends. She seems like a very fun-loving person. Anyways, it seemed that her guys friends (Glasses kid 1, Glasses Kid 2, and French Fry… lets just say they are… *ahem* S-M-A-L-L… like, 1 ¾ feet shorter than me) were playfully stealing her backpack and the girl I know (We'll just call her, "B") and Amanda were trying to get it back. They were running around for a while. At one moment, B had her backpack. Then for some reason, it seems to me that she was… dealing with her? It heard yells like "No!" and stuff like that, and almost the entire time this was happening, she was looking at me. A few minutes later, I realize that glasses kid 2 was one of my friends from gym. He, glasses kid 1, and French fry come over to me sitting at the table. "Hey Michael." GK2 says to me. "Hey." I responded. "What are you doing?" "Waiting for my dad." I replied. Then, we exchanged comments for a… minute, then they went back to what they were doing previously. To my surprise, a few more minutes later, guess who?

Amanda and "B" come over to me and ask, "Are you a trusted backpack guarder?" I say, casually, "Yeah. Why?" B says, "We need you to guard our backpacks from them." Amanda says to me, "Will you help us?" I replied (again, casually), "Yeah, I will."

So they set their backpacks next to mine underneath the table I was sitting at. The first thing I thought was, "…Hmm… Wow." So anyway, I saw GK1 coming up on my right, and I easily evaded him as he tried to go under and around the table. He eventually grabs Amanda's backpack, but I grab him/the backpack before he began to run away. Easily. The first thing I thought was "Heck no! No, no, no, no." But, then, I forgot about GK2 and the "Fry". GK2 grabbed (what I am guessing) B's book bag, but I did the same maneuver that I did on GK1. So I had one hand on Amanda's backpack, one on B's.

And you know how when you're hanging on to something with one finger and it gets all numb and warm? Yeah. I was being pulled by two kids and I had my small finger on Amanda's backpack, and it just let go. I could've done a lot more, but I didn't want to hurt the kids. Physically and socially.

They eventually got their backpacks and I left, but as I was leaving Amanda kept looking at me funny… A very strange week.
