//Oh no, there she was, the crazy girl from school//. I started running to find somewhere to hide.

“Hey!” Emily said, with a bright smile.

I turned around slowly and smiled, pretending to be surprised. “Hey,” I said.

“What are you doing here?” Emily said.

“Nothing, just shopping to find a dress,”I murmured.

“Oh, cool,” she said.

“I really have to go now. Sorry, bye,” I said, hoping it would work and she would go away.

“Oh okay, bye. See you tomorrow at school,” she said.

I stayed a bit longer at the mall when I saw... //Brian//! He was the hottest guy in our school. I wanted to go up to him and say hi or something but I couldn’t. My heart was beating really fast. I was in shock. I tried moving but I couldn’t. I could see him pass on the other side of the aisle. I looked like a total idiot just staring at him with my mouth open.

Then, all of a sudden I couldn't see him anymore. I started to freak out.

“Hey.” I heard a deep voice in my ears. I turned around and I saw the soft, light brown hair that always made me feel like I was in heaven. Those bright blue greenish eyes that I would never stop staring at because they were so beautiful.

“Hey,” I said, trying to not make it look like I was shy or nervous.

“What’s up?” Brian said.

“Nothing much, just looking for things,” I said trying to act cool.

“Oh, cool” he said. It was awkward for a moment.

I smiled, he smiled back. I looked down trying to not make eye contact even though I wanted to stare at his eyes.

“So...” he said leaning back and forth.

“Want to go get something, like a coffee or an ice cream and we can talk a little?” he said. I was screaming inside my head, //I couldn't believe that the hottest guy in my school asked me to go hang out with him. Was this a date?//

“I.. I.. would love to,” I said.

After we got our ice cream, we sat down and sat in silence for a few minutes. It was awkward because we didn’t know what to talk about.

Suddenly Brian started choking and as I stood up to help him, I saw a shadow move across the window of the store. //It was the crazy girl from school!// She glared at me and smiled a creepy smile and pointed at me and then at Brian before she disappeared into the mall. When the paramedics arrived, all I could think about besides hoping desperately that he would survive, was that the crazy girl had tried to hurt Brian and that I was next.
