Secret Valentine by VeroMaria (chapter books to read to 5 year olds .TXT) 📖

I woke up early today. Like around 3:30 a.m. but it is only because I went to sleep at 3:00 p.m. the day before. Anyways today I was going to hang out with Constantine I guess I just finally realized that I love him. Well I have a little crush on him. Not so much *smile. It’s only because of Brenda though!

My phone binged with a text. I picked it up. It was Constantine! How did he get my number?

Constantine: Hi, it is I Constantine: D

Me: How did you get my number!
I said surprised.
Constantine: Brenda 

Me: Of coarse… 

Constantine: ha-ha!

Me: What are you doing up this early?

Constantine: I couldn’t sleep. :/

Me: Oh…

Constantine: Why are you up so early?

Me: same thing…

Constantine: Oh…

Me: awkward…

Constantine: Yeah…

Me: so…I like the drawing you drew in my sketch pad

Constantine: Thanks… are you going to the girls choice dance?

Me: no I don’t know any guy that would go with me :/

Constantine: I’ll go with you I mean only if you want to ask me…

Me: ha- ha :D that’s kind of cute sure we can go as friends :P

Constantine:  okayk

Me: kk well i’m going to try to sleep again

Constantine: awe your going to leave me 

Me: ugh… fine I’ll stay up a little more but if I fall asleep don’t get mad! :P

Constantine: ok 

We stayed up almost all night until we fell asleep at 4:50 a.m.

My alarm clock went off.

I screamed and fell off my bed.

“Vero!” my mom yelled.

“What!” I yelled back with an ache in my voice.
“It’s time for school!” my mom yelled back at me.

“I think I would no that” I said to myself. I shut off the alarm, got dressed for school and walked into the kitchen.

“Hello!” My dad said happily.

“Hi” I said as I sat down at the table and put my backpack on the floor.

“Here’s some pancakes” my mom said as she put a plate of big, rich brown, and fat pancakes on the table in front of me.
My eyes widen.

“Those are big!” I said as I picked at the pancakes with my fork.

My mom lifted my chin.

“Why are your eyes like that did you go to sleep last night!” my mom said worried “Why do you have bags.”

“No mom I couldn’t sleep… but i’m awake now and fine. They’re not so bad either mom.

“What ever” then my mom turned to the sink and started to wash the dish’s.

I looked at my watch.

“I got to go now bye!” I said as I got up from my chair and grabbed my backpack off the floor.

“I’ll give you a ride!” my dad said standing up.

“No dad i’m fine but thank you anyways” I grabbed my skate board, my “cupid bubbles” and walked out the door.

I put the skateboard on the floor and started to skate to school. The school wasn’t so far from home so I really didn’t mind walking, biking, or boarding to school by myself. While I was skateboarding I heard my phone ring and stopped. I looked at it. It was my old buddy from elementary school Marlin A.K.A. Chale it was her favorite nick name.

“Hey sis!” Chale yelled.

“Owe!” I yelled back.

“Sorry…” Chale apologized.

“It’s ok so anyways i’m doing fine how is middle school?” I said as I started to continue skating.

“Cool but not as awesome as elementary…yeah I miss those days.”

“yeah I miss those days to” I replied.

“What are you doing? What’s that noise?” she said curiously.

“Skating to school.”

“I thought you hated skating! You lied to me” she said playfully.

“Yeah…well no I did hate it but now it’s kind of awesome!”

“Ha ha it is” she laughed.

“So anyways I got to go k I feel like i’m going to fall cause i’m kind of losing balance”

“Ok…Oh wait before you go I wanted to ask if you went to Mecuz wedding?”

“Um…no wait she had a wedding?”

“Yeah!”

“Veronique!” someone yelled from behind me.

I screamed and lost balance. The skateboard hit a pebble and stopped. I fell off (and no I did not go flying. )

“Vero are you ok!” Chale yelled from the phone “What happened!”

“i’m fine! Just I got to go bye”

“Ok bye…” she hung up.

“Oh my gosh” I said achingly and threw my head to the floor. I closed my eyes.

“Are you ok!” said a voice.

I opened my eyes. It was Constantine well that made everything embarrassing.

“I’m fine” I said as I tried to get up.

“Here I’ll help” he said reaching his hand out for mine. He pulled me up.

“Thanks” I said flashing him a smile.


“Your welcome…I’m sorry if I startled you” he said with a sorry look on his face.

“It’s ok”

“Want to walk together?”

“Sure” when I took a step a sharp pain came into my ankle “Owe!”

“What’s wrong?” Constantine said worried.

“I think I sprang my ankle or something I don’t know but it hurts!”

“Here hold on to me” he put my arm around him and started to walk “It’ll get better later that happened to me last time.”

“Really?” I said trying to moan.

“Yeah you just need to hold on to some one”

“Thanks Cons” I smiled “ is it ok if I call you that it’s because your name is to long”

“Sure that’s ok with me”

As we walked we talked about movies, shows and other things. We even laughed a little. My ankle finally began to feel better. We got to school.

“Thanks again Cons” I said as I pulled my arm away “I feel a little better now like you said you just got to hold on to someone” then I smiled.

“Yeah…well you’re welcome and are you sure you can go on for the rest of the day like that do you need the nurse?” he said with worry.

“Yes! i’m fine”

“Ok” he said as he shrugged. Then he gave me a hug and walked towards his group of friends.

“Hi!” Brenda yelled from behind me.

“Ah!” I said startled.

“Did you ask him yet?” she smiled.

“BRENDA!” I yelled with a little of anger.

“Sorry I just wanted to know!” she said putting her folder up to protect her self.

“No I asked him to girls choice.”

“Really?!” she said as she began to get excited like a dog for a bone.

“Yeah” I smiled.

“Yay!” she said with excitement and a smile.

“But as friend!”

“Oh…” her excitement dropped, and her smile faded.

“What? Ok you know what I’ll ask him at the dance if it makes you happy!”

“You will” she said getting all worked up again.

“Yes!”

“Ok” she smiled.

The bell rang.

We walked to class together.

“Hey hey” Taylor yelled from behind us.

“Hi” I said as I turned and gave her a hug.

“So what is up girl? I saw you hanging on to Constacutie” she said smiling.

“Constantine!”

“I know what I said!” she said as she bobbed her head.

“And I was hanging on to him because I sprang my ankle which I don’t know how and I couldn’t walk so much.”

“Mhm…” she hummed.

“It’s true!”

“Yeah ok whatever girl anyways gots to go bye!”

Then I walked into class.

“Vero!” Brenda yelled.

“What!” I said angry.

“Look at my little dinosaur!” she said as she put up a little dinosaur.

“Awe…cute” I said as I admired the little cute thing.

“OK class yesterday we went to the prep rally so we got some notes to take and lots of them”

The class groaned.

I got a headache from staying up last night. I felt a little tired. I put my head down and closed my eyes for a little while just up until we had to take notes, or at least a little more. Nothing really ever happened in my first period class we were just always taking notes or talking about the earth. Sometimes we would watch videos, or maybe even a little experiment but not really. I guess maybe I should get to the end of the class. Anyways when the bell rang I sprang out of my seat and dashed out the door like I usually door every morning.

“Vero! Wait for me gosh you always do that SPIDER MONKEY!”

I laughed and apologized.

“I’ll wait for you tomorrow ok” I said smiling.

“Ok so what class you have again?” she said panting.

“Syncs” I said with boredom in my voice.

“Oh well bye”

“Ok bye”

She ran to her friend Ilene.

I walked alone to Sync’s class and checked the time on my phone. I walked into class.

“Vero!” Taylor yelled.

“Hi!” I yelled back “owe!” I said with ache.

“What?” she yelled with a little of fear.

“I told you my ankle hurts I can hardly walk!” I said angry and aching.

“Oh… sorry for denying you then” she said as she looked at her phone.

I looked at Suzuki.

“Suzuki!! Best friend how are you!” I said as went to hug her.

“I am doing fine how about you?” she said as she hugged me back.

“Kind of good not so much” I said pulling away.

“Why do you say that?” she replied with curiosity.

“Because I-”

“Because she sprang her ankle” Taylor said as she cut me off.

“Thanks for answering for me!” I yelled angry at Taylor.

“Your welcome” she said with a smile.

I rolled my eyes.

“How did you do that?” Suzuki asked.

“Well I was riding my skateboard and Constantine startled me when he yelled out my name so I lost balance and fell off.”

“Oh but then how did your ankle get sprained?”

“I don’t know I guess I just twisted it when I got up or something” I shrugged.

“Ok guys sit down and do the warm-up” Mr. Sync said as he walked to the pencil sharpener.

“Well I guess I’ll see you after class” Suzuki said as she walked back to her desk.

“Ok” I then turned carefully and limped to my desk.

“What happened to you?” Lana asked.

“I sprained my ankle” I said with ache still.

“Oh…” then she turned to the bored.

I put my head down and rested for a little.

“Ok guys today we’re working in partners so go sit next to someone.” Mr. Sync said aloud.

“Suzuki!’ I yelled in a whisper voice.

She turned and looked at me. “What?”

“Come sit over here” I said as I patted the empty seat next to me.

“Ok
