Dancing Queen (1)

... Just walk up to her! Just move on leg in front of the other and move your lips up and down for speech! Then suavely put your hand in her hand and walk together! It's that easy man! ... Yeah right! Standing in this hallway with it's many red lockers makes me feel like I'm in that scene in that movie the Shining. You know the part when the elevator opens and all this blood starts gushing out? Yeah...all these red lockers...I feel like I'm swimming in a sea of it. So I'm pretty much wading in a hallway for a girl that has put me in the friend zone to get out of class, so I could hopelessly try to move out of that zone. The one I want to be put it...as long as I don't do anything stupid that she levels me down. Still got five minutes ...hmm pacing to my direction is...i think...yeah its Glenn. The queen of drama, he's the head quote on quote top actor in class and has been given the title queen for his skill and well...you know... Wait He's approaching me What could he possibly-are those girl shoes he's holding? Hey David! IWasPossiblyWonderingIfYouCouldTryTheseOnForMe! YouSeeIBeenHavingTroubleFindingTheRightSizeForThisGuy That'sGoingToBeInOurPlay,ButHeKeepsGettingSick! SoIHaveToKeepGettingPeopleThatLookLikeTheyCouldBeHisSize SoICanGetTheWardrobeTogether!CouldYouImagine! ...Glenn was always a fast talker... and most people that have spoken more than twice to me already know me as the yes man... Not like a brown noser! I just can't say NO to people. Um sure but, why is this guy wearing girl shoes? OH!Don'tTellMeYouDon'tKnowWhatTHePlayIsAbout! I'veBeenPostingFLyersAllOverTheUniversity! It'sQuiteFun!We'rePrettyMuchDoingAShowOfThisMovieCalled Kinky Boots! HaveYouSeenIt?It'sSoEntertaining!AndOneOfTheCharacterIsADragQueen! Oh um okay but, right here? YesPleaseIfYouDon'tMindItWillJustBeAQuickTry I'veGotSoManyThingsOnMyPlate That'sGoingStraightToMyHips! OhFMLDramDramaDramaI'veBeenDealingWith! I just pull away the the red high heel pumps away from him so he could shut up already. I thins he talks fast so he could just talk more. And there I was, in my black sweater wearing my khaki shorts bending my knees barely standing in these knee high, high heeled, red pump of shoes. ..and of coarse she steps out of class in the display I'm in. She stares her brown doe eyes at me as others also do but continue to walk. Some point and luagh, some just shake there heads and giggle, and other brave ones comment along the way and say sarcastically NICE SHOES.
