The Smile
It was just another normal Tuesday for Kayla, she had gone to school and then gone to work. Kayla was a high school senior, and worked at a local restaurant. She was sweeping the floor when she looked up to see her best friend walk into the door. Her best friend Zack was not alone, he had a friend with him. Zack and his friend make there way to a table and take a seat. "hey zack" kayla says " Hey buddy!" Zack says enthusiastically. " move over!" kayla playfully says to Zacks friend, as he scoots over Kayla sits down beside him. " Im Steven" Zacks friend said to kayla with a crooked smile on his face. Kayla went back and forth between working and chatting with the two until they left.
Later that night Kayla couldn't help but think of steven and his crooked smile. He was funny and seemed really sweet and seemed to also like her. Kayla had had feelings for her best friend Zack for some time now but she didnt think he had felt the same way. They had always been very close since they have known each other, but had never crossed the line from being friends. But Steven showed interest in Kayla and she was not used to it, but was liking the attention from someone she thought was way out of her league.
See Steven was very tall, Kayla knew he had to be over ft. He had Short blonde hair, and blue eyes that seemed to make the sky even look less vibrant. He was very muscular and was on the football team. He was liked by pretty much everyone, and she couldnt believe that he would have any interest in her. Kayla had very dark brown hair that was almost black. She was barely over 5 ft tall, and she didnt feel anything special stood out about her appearance.
While Laying in her bed thinking about Steven and that crooked sweet smile, she got a text message. "hey this is Steven" the message read. and instant smile lit up her face. she replied "hey!" trying not to seem too eager. " Zack gave me your phone number, i hope thats okay. " he responded. "thats perfectly okay" said kayla back to him. they spent the rest of the night texting back and forth about everything they could talk about, until kayla fell asleep.
