The Failure...(#2)

I know what your thinking, "today is Wednesday! Didn't she say that her next attempt was Thursday and that she's actually going to do it?"

Yes I did...thank you for noticing! But guess what? An unexpected attempt at Salad came up today...and I guess some would say that I chickened out. I say...I completely forgot about that bet...for that moment at least.

The school day ended early so the whole school would be out there and I was one of the first people to get out thinking that Salad would already be out. I was wrong. I ended up on the sidewalk waiting for him...or anybody that was considered my friend to come out. Lara was the first one out and we talked for a little, Chris was next and he waited with us. Then Angie and Will came out and we were talking and joking when Salad and his friend "Ray" came out and walked towards us. When they were right nearby, without thinking, I started talking to Salad about how violent he and the other guys were in soccer, to which he responded that I ran over him and kicked him...several times (I swear I didn't) and then just as he and Ray had begun to walk away, I turned back towards my friends they stared quietly at me for a second and then Will spoke up and asked me why I didn't kiss him right then and there while he was right in my grasp.

Truthfully, while I was talking to Salad, all I could think about was talking to him...not the bet. I didn't chicken out!
