SHE KNOWS?!?!

“Whaddya mean, SHE KNOWS !?!” I screamed as loudly as screaming is possible in a library.
Kryss looked apologetic. “I was telling Jordan and she was kind of standing there.”
AND YOU DIDN ’T NOTICE ?!” I shouted.
“Um, no.”
I wanted to die. Right there. Barbara, my worst enemy now knows who I’m crushing on.
I knew I shouldn’t have told her! Kryss has no skill at whispering whatsoever!!
“I should strike you down where you stand!!” I said, knowing how empty that threat was since Kryss is a second degree black belt in Tae-Kwon-Do and a couple inches taller then me.
Jordan came up to me at that moment. “Can I talk to you for a sec?”
“Yeah.”
Before I could even finish the word she was dragging me behind a bookshelf.
“So you like him?” she asked.
“Yeah, but I don’t want Barbara to know that!”
“I’m going to tell you something funny.” she said.
“What, you like him too?”
Jordan rolled her eyes. “You already knew that.”
“So…”
“Barbara likes him too.”
I laughed. “This shouldn’t be funny.”
“Yeah.”
