I've been a fan since I was just a little girl. I've seen her fly past my window. Some would say that's good luck.
I was watching the news that she saved another person from a burning building. I think that person was 5 or 7 years old. She also saved the parents. I love her for that. She's always so loving and compassionate.
On my way to school, I saw her yet again. I never had the guts to talk to her. She was talking to fans and posing for pictures. Why can't I just walk up to her? What am I so afraid of? I hate being shy. I really do. I'm Remi and I'm a shy geek. Let's broadcast it to the world!
I was walking through the halls at school when I noticed my friend Mia. She was at her locker taking some books out for class. I walked up to her. She noticed me and said, “Hi, Remi! Are you ready for our history test next period?”
Damn I forgot about that! Shit! I had so much on my mind.
“That was today?”
“Yeah. Where have you been? Thinking about your crush again?”
“No! Can you not bring that up?”
“Okay, okay. Sorry, but since you came out, I thought maybe you asked Teresa out. She seems to like you.”
I sighed. I had a major crush on Teresa, but I don't think she feels the same way. She's been out since forever. She is everything I want in a girl. She has so much confidence in herself. She's the first to tell a homophobe off.
“Hey, Earth to Remi, are you there?” said Mia.
Crap! I was thinking about Teresa and I didn't notice Mia talking! “Oh, sorry!”
“See you're thinking about her again!”
“Well, what if I was?”
Just when I said that, I saw Teresa walking down the halls with her friends. She looked at me and said, “Hi, Remi! We have a test today. I hope you're ready. Mr. Wells makes hard tests, but I'm sure that won't be a problem for you since you get straight A's in his class.”
Getting straight A’s was my specialty especially in history class. Teresa always noticed that.
“Yeah, I'm ready,” I lied. “I studied.” Mia gave me a long look.
“Oh, good! To be honest I actually studied hard for this test. If I don't get an A, my mom will kill me!” Teresa said.
“I wish you luck,” I said.
“Oh thanks, Remi!” she said. “I love smart women. They're so beautiful like you.”
Wait, did she just call me beautiful? I must be dreaming! Trying to fight back red cheeks, I said thanks.
“So did you notice Wonder Woman this morning posing for pictures? Said Teresa. “She's so sweet. I was going to get a picture with her, but she was on schedule. Maybe next time, but I did get an autograph.”
Remember who I was talking about earlier? Well, it's Wonder Woman. Yeah, I'm a fan. Everyone knows this.
“I couldn't catch her unfortunately,” I said.
“Aww, such a shame since you're a huge fan,” Teresa said. “Maybe next time when you're lucky you can get her.”
Just when I was going to reply the bell rang. It's time for that test. Since I forgot about it, I doubt I'll pass it. Hopefully, it's easy, but I doubt that too.
