How I Embarrassed Myself Over My School Crush

I was in SS2 when I developed a huge crush on Steven, the Head Boy prefect. I’d follow the same route he walked and even buy the sweets he liked, just to catch his eye. Every accidental meeting of our gazes made my heart race. One day our maths teacher put us in the same group, and I was over the moon. During a punishment lap, someone poured water on the track. I slipped, fell hard, and everyone screamed. Mortified, I peeked up—and saw Steven helping me to my feet and checking if I was okay. I kept my feelings hidden, especially when he confessed to liking one of my friends. I was crushed and even toyed with ruining their story before snapping out of it. I’m better now. If you’ve ever embarrassed yourself in front of a crush, share your own first love story below!
