RP: Right before school, you get in a huge fight with your mom which causes you to cry. Once you arrive at school, your crush asks you why you're crying. What do you do?

Play it cool and say, "What? I wasn't crying, I just
washed my face with a little too much water."
"Haha! You'll never believe what happened! So, my
sister was whacking me on the head with her barney
toy because I was eating bacon, and apparently she ...
"Well, on my way to school I saw a dead cat. It was terrible. I buried it, crying the whole time. (Crush: That's so sweet of you! <3)
"I WASN'T CRYING, OK?"

Take it off and rip it into tiny pieces, then run the the bathroom to cry in private.
Laugh and say, "That's why my shirt is so awesome! It teaches me kung-fu, and who the very few people who actually dare to mess with me!"
Primly take it off and keep walking like nothing happened.
