I Would Die Once


By: Jason Page


I was sitting in my first period class and looking at Rini like I do every school day. She noticed me staring at her a few times (she's so beautiful). Five minutes were left in the period. Rini stared back at me for a moment, then she got up and walked toward me.
Rini took her seat at a desk next to me,"Hi! What's your name?" she asked cheerfully. My heart started to pound rapidly. The love of my life is talking to me. What do I do? What do I do? Oh my gosh! The love of my life is talking to me. Okay, concentrate....
Rini looked deeply into my eyes with her beautiful, brown eyes, "Hello?" I flinched, "Oh, uh... Jason," I finaly replied. She smiled, "I'm Rini." I knodded shyly. Her blond hair is so beautiful. I wonder if she has a liege (boyfriend). I wonder if I have a chance with her.
Rini studied my face, "What are you doin' this weekend?" I thought for a moment, "Nothing, just staying home."
"I'm going to party, get drunk, ya know. That kinda stuff," Rini looked deeply into my eyes, "Do you have a girlfriend?" I looked at her confused. I'm usually not asked that question, especially by girls. It should be obvious. Just look at me! I shook my head negativly, Rini told me she didn't have a liege....... then the bell rang.
