Love Can Always Wait...

Cafeteria (continued..)
I carefully lifted up one of those cheap red lunch trays. Walking down the line, I noticed Nick two people in front of me, beside my bestest friend, Melanie. They were quietly whispering and giggling. I picked up an apple and a few breadsticks. I took my time and looked for Melanie. Mels waved her hand wildly in the air. "Audrey! Audrey! There's something I need to tell you!" Was it about Nick? I squeezed through the crammed crowd and rushed over to the table. "What's up?" I said. "That's all you're eating? Just a few breadsticks and an apple? C'mon Audrey! You gotta be fit for your next date!" complained and exclaimed Melanie. "What date? No one asked me." I curiously said. "It's time to pick a very cute dress and grab some high heels. You got a date with Nick."
Is it True?
I froze. It took me a long time to realize that Melanie was shaking me hardcore to unfreeze me. "Audrey? Audrey? You all right?" I wasn't sure if Melanie was right. I mean, who would like a girl like me? I wouldn't even think if of a single chance of Nick going out with me."Melanie? You must be lying. Who would want to go out with me?" "He would. He's been hanging around me trying to get some girl advice on how to date. And then I said who's it for? He told me it was for a girl like you. He wants to go out with a girl who can be herself and not pretend to be another." For a second, I thought she was right. I finally knew if he liked me or not. Nick liked me.
