Obsession: Effective

“I mean, think about it. If you can get enough dirt on him, you could secretly give it out. You could be getting your revenge.â€?
Revenge, I liked the sound of that. I thought for a second. That would mean me acting friendly. Would I be ready to do that?
“But I’ve been really mean, do you think he’ll ‘take me back’ easily?â€? I said sounding doubtful of Jueli’s plan.
“Hun, he’s obsessed, of course he’ll forgive you in a heart beat.â€? Sounded reasonable, and I couldnt find any other excuse, so I gave in,
“Sure, I guess, what do you have in mind, exactly?â€?

Ring, ring, “Hello?â€? Jared’s voice asked. I took in ever inch of courage I had in a matter of seconds and finally answered.
“Hey, Jared. Its, um, its Gabe.â€? I could sense his excitement when I said that, “Uh, I was just wondering if you’d like to… hang out sometime?â€? I could BARLEY get the words out of my mouth. It was so hard to be asking this, but he answered,
“Sure, Gabe. See, I knew you’d come around.â€?

We decided on tomorrow, after school..
