Marble (M) and Azul (F)
Part 1
Azul:
I was looking at the blackboard, or, seeming to, but I was really looking at him. I heard that he was a jerk, but I couldn't help but to like him. He was broad shouldered, with his gorgeous brown eyes, and his pure white teeth. I sighed inside, and forsakened myself to a life without love. Who would love me? Me and my stupid blueness! I thought angrily. The teacher, of course, then called on me.
" Azul, what is Pi? " She barked in her brisk voice.
" Uh, uh.. um 25? " I guessed, knowing I was wrong. I blushed furiously in embarssement as the class erupted into laughter. The teacher shook her head and tsked tsked. Marble raised his hand.
" Yes Marble? " Asked the teacher. Marble glanced at me and said, " Pi=3.14, Mrs. Faulkner. " He lowered his hand and I put my head on my desk in shame. Of course, the teacher made everything worse by saying " Azul, I think you should stay after class, cme to my desk once class is over! " Urg! I am so stupid. Now he will never like me! Tears welled up into my eyes, and I brushed them away angrily. After class, I went up to Mrs. Faulkner and she scolded me. I just held up through it. She was really making me mad. I made one tiny mistake and I have to be held after class! After she was done, I stormed out of the classroom. I wasnt looking at where I was going, and I crashed right into Marble.
" Uh.. huh, Hi. Sorry! " I squeaked. His paws were gripped around my shoulders, because he had automaticly grabbed me so I woundnt fall.

Part 2
Marble:
I looked down at Azul in surprise. Is she afraid of me? If she is, I better let go! I quickly let go of Azul and realized that I was taller than her. I looked down.
" Sorry, I should of been watching where I was going. " I gave her a small, hesint smile. I was relevied when she gave me one back. I stooped down to pick up her books after a few akward moments.
" Wait! You dont have to do that! " Azul exclaimed. She bent down too and as I looked up, we bumped heads.
I laughed and rubbed my forehead.
" Are you okay? " I asked carefully, as she wasnt laughing with me. She was hunched forwards, covering her face. " Azul? " Her name came out of my lips strangley. " Azul? " I asked again.
" Go away! " She replied, her voice muffled. I smelled it then.
" You are bleeding! " I exclaimed, worried. " Why didnt you tell me? " I gently seized her face in my paws and turned it side to side, ignoring the quicking of my heart. I heard her breathing faster, and her heart beating more, and realized something. She is afraid I will hurt her again! I let go of her face and waited for her to move away. But she didnt, and I found myself captured by her hidden beauty. I just stared at her, then spoke.
" Um, uh.... " I cleared my throat, and tried it again. " Your nose may be broken, but that is where the blood is coming from. " I waited for her response. She blinked a few times, took a deep breathe and spoke.
" Yeah, um, I think I should go to the nurse. " She then got up, turn on her heels, and strode down the hallway.
Woah. She just left her things here. I must of really terrifed her! I gathered her things, and just stared at where she left.

Part 3
Marble:
I shook my head and hurried after Azul.
" Wait! You forgot your stuff..... " I trailed off when she only walked faster.
Wait! If I dont return the books now, then that means that I can use them as an excue to see her later!
Absentmindly, I flipped through a notebook that was labled in big letters: MATH I kept flipping, wen I saw something that stopped me cold. In big letters, in the way back, were :
I LOVE MARBLE!
With cute hearts all around, and little cupids. It was very artistic, and she was a great artist. But I had it all wrong! I thought she was afraid of me!
Oh, well, she likes me! Well, do I like her. She is very pretty, and she seems very sweet. I think I will give us a try. I thn set off to confront her about the notebook

Part 4
Azul:
I was morrified. My nose was dripping all over the place, I left my notebook with Marble, and there was something in there that was very privite! I heard Marble call my name and tell me to wait, but I ignored him and ran into the office. The secretary took one look at me and just handed me a towel from one of her endless drawers and said in her bland voice. " The Nurse's office is down the hallways, two doors on your right. " Then she went back to typing. I stood there, then I went to where she pointed, sticking my tounge out at her as I went.
Part 5
Azul:
I surppressed a shiver as the Nurse's cold paws took my face in them. She tsked and shook her head slowly.
" You dont have a broken nose, but this shouldnt of happened, unless you tried to headbut a soccer ball! " She said in her nasally voice. She laughed, a high pitched, loud, unpleasent sound. I winced, then quickly stopped as she turned towards me.
" You should take the day off, sweetie. I will call your mommy and you just stay there and wait like a good little girl! " And before I could protest, she had stuck one of those cheap lolipops in my mouth

Part 6
Azul:
" Azul! Were you in a fight!? All I know is that the nurse called me up and said that your nose was bleeding and that I should pick you up! " Cried my mother. She clucked like a mother hen, and circled me, checking me out all over.
" MOM! " I said. " I am fine! I just bumped heads with another kid! "
" Okay, dear, but if you are lying, well, you are sooo grounded young lady! " My Mom scolded.
" But... I didnt do anything! " I protested. I hated my Mom. She never understood when to shut up! And the stupid Nurse wasnt even defending me! She just nodded her head like she knew I did something wrong, even though I didnt! I was about to cry, when I heard the door behind us open. Now my day was worse. It was Marble.

Part 7
Marble:
I had stood in the hallway for about 10 minutes, trying to decided whether or not to return Azul's notebook. Do I want to return it in front of other people? Or do I want to return it to her alone?
I decided to give it to her now, but grabbed my blue pen and flipped quickly through her notebook to the page that she decaited to me. I scribbled hastily. Hey Azul, I like you too, a lot. I think you a pretty and smart. Do you think maybe we could go out this weekend? Here's my number. I wrote down my number. I then shut Azul's notebook and prayed she would read it. I took a deep breathe and walked down the hallway and into the office. There was the secertary, typing away as always. I then saw Azul, and it looked like she was about to cry. Her mother was yakking away. " You better not of been getting into a fight young lady! Otherwise you are sooo grounded. " Her mother was wagging her finger at Azul as she had done something wrong, and the stupid nurse was nodding her head as if she agreed with her. I cleared my throat and spoke up.
" Excuse me? Miss? " I asked.
Azul's mother turned around and glared at me. Azul smacked her forehead and shook her head slowly.
" Yes? " She asked, not to happily.
I swallowed hard, but contuioned. " Azul didn't get into a fight. We bumped heads in the hallway. I startled her and she dropped her books. We both went to go pick them up, and we bumped heads. I came here to return her notebook. " I handed it to Azul and she smiled weakly. Azul's mother's face broke out into a grin.
" Oh well, well well! Look who we have here? A proper Gentleman! Why thanks you.... " She seemed to have forgotten that she had just given this " Proper Gentleman " an evil glare not moments ago.
" Marble " I said.
" Why thank you Marble! " She beamed. Then she said " Come on Azul, tome to go! " and left the office. I gave Azul a quick wave and smile and was happy that she return one too. I nearly skipped out of the office.

Part 8
Azul:
I had to know. Did Marble look in my notebook? If he did, I will just die of embaresment.That's all I was thinking as me and my Mom drove home in silence. I didnt dare look to see, so I decided to do it tomorow, where I couldnt scream if he did. As I went to bed that night, my eyes wouldnt close. All I could think about was Marble's hair, the way it flopped over one eye. Or his pearly white smile. I just had to see. I got up quietly, because my mom was passed out on the couch, and it was only 9:00 pm. I tiptoed down the stairs and into the living room, where I grabbed my backpack and tiptoed back up the stairs and into my bedroom. I closed my door and turned on the light. I went into each of my notebooks, but I couldnt find anything. But my Math floder! That's the one Marble returned! I searched through my bag fervishly until I found it. Do I really want to open it? Of course! I flipped through the pages and saw his handwriting. I dropped the book. He wants me to call him! Me! Azul! Marble wants me to call him! I jumped for joy.
