Don't embarrass me

"Sarah, Sarah, you have to come and see!" Kathrine cried "Jason is working here, and he is soooo sexy." 1

I rolled my eyes, but Kathrine didn't notice. She was too busy ogling him. 2

Kathrine proclaimed her crush on a guy at least a couple of times a week. Sure, at 14, my hormones were raging too, but there was such thing as a secret crush. Her open comments were a proclamation to me that yet another guy was off limits, because once amorous feelings were stated by one of my friends, I felt guilty even flirting with that guy. 3

"I'm going to go talk to him" She said as she hurriedly gathered her items for the check out Jason was at. "Whatever you do, Sarah, don't embarrass me!"4

"What was that?" I thought to myself, "An invitation for embarrassment?"5

An evil grin crossed my face. "Kathryn!" I shouted across 15 feet of grocery store, "I think we forgot to grab the tampons!"6

    Nice

    This was a nice little tidbit. Short and sweet - and, I did chuckle out loud at the end. It was a nice little punch line that wrapped things up in a very tidy way. Thanks for a fun little read! Jaymo8

    You so should! But don't expect your friend to think it's near as funny as you do!

    ROTHFL..this story is priceless! You have a very creative mind, and the rule of thumb among girlfriends, is don't ever date or flirt with someone they have proclaimed to have a crush on! Best of luck in this contest! You sure got a laught out of me!
    Light and love,

    Oh you do have a mean streak! The true stories all seem to leave such a satisfying feeling after reading them. Good to know you have at least a twinge of guilt if you consider poaching your girl friends prey. Funny story!

    Oh my goodness what an embarrassing situation! I love it! What an evil, evil child you were! That is sooo funny. I can say that because I wasn't the one you were embarrassing! I'll bet it's funny NOW to all of those who were involved. Time has a way of doing that. What a fun entry! Good luck in the contest.
