Step 2: Wait

"So, I could just stop now, right?"

I was in the middle of having an argument with myself. On one hand, the plan was to help me get You-know-who back as my boyfriend. However, I got him to like me, and that was good, right?

"No, of course you can't stop now, you have to dance with him!" Some little voice in my head said. I reached for my diary and opened it up to the page with the steps on it.

Step 2: Say that you're really sorry you fought last year and that it's been really hard to stay mad at him... or something that sounds less cheesy. Then ask if you can be friends again. Repeat until he says yes!

Well, I had already gotten him to like me, so I could go on to step 3.

Step 3: Have some of your friends "force" you to dance with him at the next school dance and make sure it's a slow song! Don't act like you like it a lot, but let him know you could get used to it...

My plan was falling apart. The next dance was in 2 weeks! How was I supposed to wait that long? So much could happen in fourteen days!

I crossed out that step two, and wrote something new:

Step 2: Wait.

Pretty pathetic, but it was what I had to do!

"Hey Natalie! Are you still looking at what might have been?" Zoe walked into my room laughing to herself, and I quickly shut the small book before she could see what was inside it. 

"Um, Natalie, can I ask you a question?" Zoe asked me, and it almost sounded like she was afraid of what was coming next.

"Sure. What is it?" I asked her, a little suspicious.

"Well, it's just that... did you actually like Derek? Because all my friends are convinced that you were just dating him to be popular! I told them you weren't, but they didn't believe me. Now they're mad at me about it because they think I'm lying on your behalf! So now I'm pissed at them!"
