You study the red head some more. Her red hair goes out past her shoulders is very smooth and clean, very different from Kyle's typical dirty rough unkept hair gathered from constantly playing sports, both in a court or on the dirt. Her hair also contains a blue headband over the top of her hair.
Her pink singlet and blue skirt are clean and smooth, nothing indicating she has been out playing any sort of psychical activity recently. Her shoes are cute Mary Janes with high white shocks. You blink and shudder upon realising you just used to the word 'cute' to describe something.
'I'm spending way to much time as a girl...' you think to yourself as you take a breath and walk up to her, hoping that if she is Kyle the two of you will be able to work out what's going on and find a way to beat those girls.
As you get closer you note she is holding a notable stack of school books, both in her hands and a pink backpack. Those are something you never see Kyle with if he can avoid it.
"K... Kyle?" You finally manage to say as you walk up to the redhead.
To your surprise the girl reacts with a look of annoyance "My name 'Kayla', as in 'Kay-Lar'. Not Kyle. Kyle's a boy's anyway. How'd you like it if I went up and called you Timmy or something"
You stand there not knowing what to say, of course you'd very much like to be called Timmy, but maybe not the best time to say that as this girl doesn't seem to be Kyle... but she does seem to know you.
"Uh... sorry, I just.. I had something in my throat" you blurt up trying to explain, causing 'Kayla' to look somewhat concerned "Oh, are you okay Tina? You need to see a teacher or something"
That shocks you for two reasons, one, Kyle always has to be dragged off the field to see a teacher if he ever gets injured, if this girl is a transformed Kyle then it would be very strange of him.. her to suggest seeing a teacher. And secondly, she just called you 'Tina', something which seems to confirm the earlier girls words about everyone remembering you as a girl.
Realising you've been silent for too long you quickly go "No.. no it's fine. Something probably blew into my mouth while coming here.."
She squirms at that "Ill.. That's why I hate the outdoors, you never know what's flying around."
"Hate..?" You ask, confused as the differences between her and Kyle become more numerous.
She just shrugs "Well okay, fair point I do like reading about the outdoors with you and the girls. But actually being out here? Yuck."
"The girls?" You ask, once again confused on who she is talking about.
She however seems to misunderstand your question and instead gets a look of realisation "Oh right, thanks for reminding me. The girls are all in our little quiet spot in the Library waiting for us."
The library? "Uh... what about the match in the gym about to start...?" you suddenly blurt out without thinking, you and your friends had been planning on playing in it for weeks. You were up against students from another class and it was probably the biggest event of your grade.
Kayla just looks confused "The match? Why'd we want to go watch a bunch of boys kicking around a ball for our free time... unless" she suddenly keeps a sly smile, disturbing you "You have a crush on one of the players don't you?"
You face instantly turns red from embarrassment, which admittedly doesn't help your case, as you try to put together a response "What!?.. no.. I mean.. I just.." which causes Kayla to just giggle at you, causing the redness to grow.
"Oh is it Ben? I though I saw your eyes on him the other day.. or maybe Jake. You do sit next to him in class after all..." She keeps thinking about her theories on your supposed crush when suddenly she appears to have a breakthrough and shouts "Oh I know! You have a crush on Alan!"
You remember Alan, a dirty blonde haired kid in your class, you're not close friends with him but you two do get along when playing sports together. Thinking him of you suddenly realise he actually looks kind of cute, causing you to smile... before you realise you're using a the cute again.. and to describe a boy!
The quick smile and then sudden increased embarrassment seems to only confirm Kayla's thoughts in her eyes.
"Ohhh! When Simone said she caught you blushing in his direction I had my doubts as Simone applies lovey stuff to everything, but she was right! You do have a crush of on Alan."
"Uh.. no I don't.." your attempts of denial being weak as every time the name Alan is said, a thought of his cuteness comes up which only makes you blush more.
"Sure you don't. Well if you want to go see your totally not crush at the match I won't stop you... but no promises on me not telling the girls all about this. And you better tell us everything once you get back" she says with a giggle and a wink.
You have no idea how things have gotten this far and you realise you need a way out of this conversation to clear your head as frightenedly girly thoughts begin popping up about Alan, to your great fear.
Thinking on all this, you soon decide to...
