Just Another Nerd Story by Bayleigh Little (best detective novels of all time txt) 📖

Nate.
"Hi," he said awkwardly.
"H-hey." I stammered shifting feet.
"Come in." he moved out of the door way.
I walked into his house for the first time in awhile.
"I'm gonna go to my room real quick to get the book and my laptop. You can sit on the couch."
I nodded and walked over to the living room.
I sighed.
This is so awkward.
I regret coming here.
Why couldn't we do this over a Skype call or something?
He came to the living room after about five minutes.
"So uhm let's get started." he said sitting on the other couch.
~Two Months Later~
We turned in the project and got an A+.
It's the best grade I've gotten in awhile.
Buut let's get back to the story, shall we?
The school was on winter break.
It had just started snowing two days ago, and the town looked beautiful.
It was the second day of break and I haven't done anything with friends.
Danielle is up in Wisconsin with Owen and Brittany is on vacation in Florida.
Logan has been trying to get a scholarship for college so he has no time for a social life.
Tyler has been acting stranger then usual lately, and it's scaring me.
I know what you're probably thinking.
What about Nate?
Well Nate is my friend again.
It's not the same as before but it's still a good friendship.
We haven't kissed.
I don't think we will.
My phone buzzed with a text.
From: Nate Johnson
To: Me
Msg: Meet me by the park 2 blocks away, I have some important news to tell u ;)
I laughed and replied a simple Kaay.
I got dressed into a sweater and skinny jeans with UGG boots walking outside.
The fresh winter air hitting my face.
I walked to the park listening to Wonderwall by Oasis.
I arrived at the park to see Nate sitting on a swing.
"Nate!" I smiled sitting on the swing next to him.
"Jordan!" he laughed.
"So what did you need to tell me?" I asked drawing shapes into the snow with my shoe.
"Well you have to promise to act surprised when this happens." he started.
I nodded, signaling for him to continue.
"Well Tyler is going to have a surprise for you on Christmas Eve," he smiled.
My heart fluttered, "Really?"
"Yea! I can't tell you what the surprise is but you're going to like it."
"Wait, how did you know I like Tyler?" I questioned.
Nate laughed, "You don't like him, you love him. I see the way you guys look at each other. Everyone and I repeat everyone knows you too are going to get married and have kids someday. You two are probably the best couple out of the whole school."
I was shocked.
Even I didn't hear these rumors.
"And this time I won't come between you guys like I did last time. I love you Jordan but you love Tyler and I respect that," Nate hugged me getting up.
He started to walk home.
"Wait!" I called.
He turned around.
"I want to say good-bye to my feelings for you too," and before he could reply I kissed him.
I felt something.
No, I didn't feel sparks or fireworks.
I felt all my feelings for Nate disappear.
Like finally my mind was clear from thoughts of Nate.
He pulled away, "Now do you realize your true feelings?"
I nodded smiling, "I'll always love you as a brother Nate."
He hugged me, "And I'll always love you as a sister Jordan."
We walked home together holding hands in a friendly way.
My thoughts were clouded with thoughts of Tyler.
Tomorrow's Christmas Eve.
I wonder what the surprise is.
I'm so excited.
Eep!
"Well this is my house. I'll see you on Mine Craft tonight and I'll see you tomorrow." Nate hugged me good-bye.
I hugged back, "Bye Nateo."
He waved and walked inside while I continued walking to my house.
I was listening to Sleeping With Sirens when I burst through the door of my house collapsing on the couch.
I want it to be tomorrow already.
I had so many things on my mind.
Nate had finally admitted his love for me.
I kissed Nate.
Tyler.
Love.
Snow.
Food.
Just so many things.
I'm happy my feelings for Nate are gone though.
I tried to date Kieran, but it failed terribly.
My thoughts were clouded with thoughts of Nate.
I couldn't get him out of my head.
Every time I was with Kieran I thought I was finally over Nate but then he just popped into my thoughts out of no where.
Now I know that I am officially over him and that tomorrow is going to be perfect.
I'm finally happy.
Truly happy.
