Sophie's POV
A month had passed since the events of the beginning of school and I had gotten use to the new schedule. Things were going well I thought sitting in front of the dresser combing my hair before I heard Nick honking his horn
"I'm coming" I said as I put down the brush, grabbed my bag and ran out closing the door behind me.
"Sorry to keep you waiting" I apologized getting into the car
"After a month you get use to it" he said
"Like your horn" I said
"Touché" he said as he backed out of the drive away.
"So did you and Taylor finish the project you were doing" he asked saying Taylor's name with venom laced in it. While he still hated the fact that we were lab partners he didn't overreact or anything like before. In fact he actually listened when I complained about the projects and the arguments Taylor and I had in between. All in all he was almost perfect
"Yeah. It's due tomorrow" I said
"So why are you carrying it today?" He asked
"Nick I told you already if I want full marks I have to bring it in one day before the due date" I explained
"Isn't that a bit harsh?" He asked
"Have you met my teacher?" I asked sarcastically
"No" he laughed
"Hey so what about you?" I asked
"What about me?" He asked
"How's the first month back?" I asked
"Eh kinda disappointed. I expected a parade in my honor when I walked into the school" he joked causing me to smile and roll my eyes
"We're sorry you didn't get the royal treatment your highness" I said before I got a text
*Taylor⚛- Did you remember the project?*
*Yeah*
*Taylor⚛- Good where are you?*
*I'm almost at the school*
*Taylor⚛- I just got here*
*Is she there yet?*
*Taylor⚛- she's always here I'm seriously beginning to think she sleeps here*
*😂😂😂 wouldn't be surprised*
I sent laughing aloud as well
"Who is it?" Nick asked
"It's Taylor. He asked if I had to the project" I answered
"So why are you laughing?" He asked
"Just a inside joke" I said
"If you say so" he said as he pulled into the parking lot before getting out and opening the door for me
"Thank you" I said getting out before he closed the door
"Are you walking me to class?" I asked
"Sorry I'm actually leaving" he said
"Nick" I cautioned
"Don't worry I'm just gonna check up on someone" he reassured me
"Okay and" I said
"And be back before the last bell rings" he continued
"Fine I'll see you at English" I said
"Sure thing" he said
"Where are you going?"
"It's a bit personal"
"So you can't tell me" I said annoyed
"I would if I could. Can't you just trust me?"
"Fine but you better be back before classes start" I said
"I promise I will. Love you" he said kissing my lips before entering the car and driving away leaving me only to sigh. This is why he was almost perfect. He often disappear and never tells me where he goes. It's annoying especially since we promised no lies.
"Hey Sophie" I heard Libby's voice call out from behind me
"Libbs" I said turning around to see her and the guys walking up to me
"Hey what's up" I said
"Not much" the guys said
"Was that Nick awhile ago?" Libby asked
"Yeah he said he has something to take care of before school" I said
"Like what?" Libby asked
"He said he couldn't tell me" I said
"Of course he couldn't" she said rolling her eyes
"What's that for Libbs?" I asked
"Carlos can you go to class without me I need to have a girl to girl with Sophie" Libby said
"Kay. Let's go Carl. I'll see you in class" Carlos said as he and Carl walked away
"Okay girl look. I know Nick's been trying really hard lately to be a good boyfriend and all and get why you're guilting yourself into being so trusting because of the whole lying about kissing Jimmy thing but you can't seriously tell me you're not even a little bit curious about what he's doing and where he's going" she said
"No because I don't wanna pry into his personal life" She said
"You've been dating for four years Soph. You should know everything about his personal life already" she said
" I don't wanna talk about this anymore Libbs. I should be heading to class" I said
"Yeah me too" she said before we walked away in opposite directions
(Jimmy)
Having just finished texting Sophie I walked into the class to see the teacher behind her desk head down in her work
"Good morning Mister Taylor" she said as I walked to my seat
"Good morning Miss" I said before my phone buzzed so I took it out and saw Betty's caller I'd which she added in my phone
*Betty💝😍- hey you already at school*
*Yeah why?*
*Betty💝😍- my bike was wrecked a while ago*
*how did that happen*
*Betty💝😍- an accident*
*Okay do you want me to pick you up?*
*Betty❤😍- Would you please?*
*Okay. Just wait a little okay. I'll be right there. Mind sending me the location*
*Betty💝😍- Yeah sure. thnx James* I read before I sighed and got up
"Mister Taylor where are you going?"
"Sorry miss. But Betty's asked me to pick her up. She said something happened to her bike" I said
"Okay but if you don't make it back before the first bell you'll be late" she said
"I know" I said before I walked out.
I made my way to the car and saw Sophie walking towards me
(Sophie)
'Damn it! Libby has me doubting him. No I can't he's been trying his best for the passed month. The least I can do is trust him' I thought not paying attention to my surrounding
"Hey Vortex" a familiar voice said snapping me out of my daze
"Oh hey Jimmy" I said looking up at him my eyes stuck at his soft lips as he said something
"Sophie. Sophie!" he called again
"Huh did you say something?" I asked
"Not really I just asked if you're going to class" He asked
"Yeah but where are you going?" I asked
"To pick up Betty" he said and just then I felt my chest tighten
"Oh and why are you going to pick her up. I thought she had a bike" I said
"She does but it got wrecked" he answered
"So why did she call you and not a tow truck" I asked a bit jealous
"I'm pretty sure she did and I don't think a tow truck would carry her to school" he said
"And what about an uber?" I asked
"Why are you asking so many questions?"
"I'm just curious" I shrugged
"I mean of all the people she could call why did she have to call you?" I continued
"I don't know and I don't have time for this Sophie. I have to be back before the first bell" He said
"Whatever see you in class" I said before I walked away
'What was that just now. I sounded like a jealous girlfriend' I thought as I made my way to class
(Jimmy)
"What was that about?" I said before I went to my car and drove to where Betty was
She was stuck in the middle of the road somewhere near the elementary school
"Hey anyone call an uber" I said pulling up in front of her
"Hey what took so long?" She asked with a smile
"Sorry I was talking to Sophie for a second" I said
"Don't worry about it. I'm just happy for the ride" she said before she entered the car
"So what happened to your bike?" I asked driving away
"Oh it crashed" she said
"Are you okay?" I asked concerned
"Yeah I wasn't the one driving and I jumped off and rolled luckily only getting a few scarps"
"So where's your bike?" I asked
"The tow truck took it a while ago" she said
"Cool. So when are you getting it back?" I asked
"In about two days" she said
"Cool so are you going to do be taking the bus then?" I asked
"Well I was kind of hoping a certain genius would offer to be my chauffeur for the time" she said playfully
"Sure. My scheduled is a lot more free now that detention is over but you should know I'm at school pretty earlier" I said
"Oh yeah that's fine. I still can't believe it's been a month already" she said
"Yeah I think we should do something to celebrate" I said
"And what do you have in mind" she asked pressing against me
"Um... Dinner maybe... if you're interested I mean" I said with a blush
"You're so cute when you're shy. I'd love to have dinner with you" she said making me smile like a madman
"Thank you. I'll pick you up at eight. You won't regret it I swear" I said.
Yes I'm going on a date with the Betty Ann Turner. The girl I've been crushing on since elementary school
(Sophie)
The school day had just ended and I was on my way home when Nick pulled up beside me on the sidewalk
"Psst beautiful" he said
"Hello. Can I help you" I said
"Yeah. I'm looking for directions" he said
"Where to?" I asked
"Your heart" he said winking at me
"Wow such a cheesy pick up line" I said
"I try" he said
"But I have a boyfriend" she said
"And what would you say if he was here" Nick asked
"I would ask him why he wasn't at school today" I said no longer playful
"And he probably would say that the business he had ran a little later than expected and that he's very sorry" he said still giving playful smile
"And what business is that exactly?" I asked
"Come on Sophie. You know that's private" he said
"Private Nick. We've been dating for four years and I don't even now where you are half of time especially these passed two years" I said getting louder
"Four years" he said as if he realized something before he started laughing
"What's so funny?" I asked
"I can't believe I forgot. Now I know why you're so upset" he said confusing me
"Okay babe. I'll make it up to you I swear. But you'll have to walk home on your own okay" he said
"What?" I said confused before he left
"The hell is he on about?"
I was utterly confused but I had piano lessons so I decided to just leave it at that.
(Jimmy)
I am currently working in my lab when my alarm started beeping
"Feeding time already huh Goddard" I said as I looked at my wristwatch and saw that it was eight o' five (8:05)
"Oh my god I'm late" I said as I rushed out of the lab and to my house after getting Goddard his food
I charged into the bathroom and showered as best I could in three minutes then I looked for something to wear.
I put on my red atom shirt and blue ripped jeans with a white jayz before putting on a black leather jacket with a sliver atom symbol over the crest pocket
I grabbed my house keys and fresh flowers from my mother's garden before I started looking for my car keys but when I looked at where it normally was I saw a note
"Dear Jimmy. I'm borrowing your car for a date with my Shinning one for our anniversary sincerely Carlos" I read
"Damn it. I told you I was going to use it. I even left a note" I said before a noticed something else
"P.S. sorry for your note" I read before sighing and took up my old car keys.
It was something I built using spare parts of Dad's old cars during middle school and even drove around town. I stopped using it freshman year because Dad bought me a new car after his promotion. It was still functioning because I did regular tone ups on the engine despite not driving it. I just hope you doesn't pay attention to how it looks
'Oh well' I thought as I jumped into the car and drove out. I drove over to Betty's house and knocked on the door
About five minutes later the door opened and a woman resembling Betty, but she had long blonde hair so I guessed she was her mother, greeted me
"Good evening ma'am is Betty here?" I asked a bit embarrassed
"Yes. I'm her mother and you are?" I asked
"Um...I'm James Taylor. I'm a friend" I said
"Oh James you've grown so big and your head shrunk. It's feels like I haven't seen you in forever"
"Um thank... you" I said confused. I mean I was sure this was the first time I had met her. She never once came to the elementary school or middle school so you must have seen me when I was a baby or something
"You are friends with Betty?" she asked looking at me strangely
"Yes I'm actually here to pick her up" I said
"Oh really? I wouldn't think she'd have a friend like you. Especially with her rowdy behavior and her social circle" she said
"That's enough Beth" Betty said walking out from behind her
"Oh Betty I was about to talk to James here about some of your other friends" she said
"I can see that. Don't you have somewhere to be. Preferably a ditch" she said bluntly
"Oh yes" she said taking her keys and walking pass me
"Now Betty don't screw this one up" her mother said as she entered her car and drove away
"I'm sorry about that" Betty said
"No problem. You look amazing by the way" I said
"Thanks you look great yourself. Love the perfume" she said
"T-t-thanks. Here" I said trying to hide my blush as I gave her the flowers getting a giggle in return
"Shall we get going?" She asked as I turned and showed her to the car
"Um... What happened to the other one?" She asked
"Yeah Carlos borrowed my car without telling me so I had to pull out this old thing" i said
"Wow I never did get to ride in it back in middle school. I did think it was cool though" she said jumping into the car
"There's a first time for everything" I said as I entered the car and started it up
"Welcome to Jimmy's car express. Please keep all hands and feet inside the car and please don't touch anything" I said
"Okay" she said as I pulled out of the parking lot
We drove quietly and I look on my phone
"So where are we going" She asked
"I was planning on a picnic at the park"
"Oh the park" she said disappointed
"What's wrong?" I asked noticing her expression
"Nothing it's fine. Let's get going" she said before I sighed then an idea crossed my mind
I gripped unto the steering wheel and made a sudden U-turn.
"What are you doing?" she asked
"A change of destination" I said
"To where?"
"It's a surprise" I said
(Sophie)
"Can you believe him Libby. Not only did he not show up for school like he promised. He ditched me for no reason at all with no explanation" I complained over the phone
"Okay girl. I know you need to rant and normally I'd be all for it but I have a date to get ready for" Libby said
"Oh yeah. Sorry. I'm just so upset" I said
"Sorry to ditch ya but I think Carlos' here later" she said before hanging up leaving me to sigh
"Great" I sighed as I walked to the window and looked out to see Jimmy rushing to put on clothes
"Where is he rushing to?" I asked myself as he put on some expensive perfume
'Wait expensive perfume does he have a date. No way. Who would go on a date with Nerdtron?' I thought before something or someone came to mind
'No no. No way he has a date with her" I said as I watched him leave his room then ten minutes later drive out in his hover car then I heard the doorbell ring over and over again
"SOPHIE!!! YOU HOME!!" I heard Nick's voice scream out as I got up from the window and went to the door and saw him dressed in a nice black suit
"Nick" I said shocked and angry
"I'm sorry I know you're angry. I know I forgot Vortex but I came to make it up to you"
"Make it up to me?"
"Yeah I got us reservations at La Flèche D'amour de Cupidon" he said making me shocked
"NO WAY!" I squealed excited. This was the most romantic restaurant in town and one of the most expensive. It was second only to the Midnight
"Yep. Now I think you should get dressed" he said handing me a shopping bag
"What's all of this for?" I asked took out a sparkly red dress and earrings
"Wow" I said
"Hurry up and get going. We're going to be late" he said with a smile
"Yep I'm going right now" I said heading towards the stairs
"Oh and Sophie" he said stopping me
"Yeah what is it?" I asked
"Happy Anniversary" he said before it hit me.
Today was October 2. The day we told everyone we were dating but I didn't remember that despite all the planning I had done over the summer. I had forgotten our four year anniversary. I was stuck in place.
I had spent the last month so focused on my projects with James that it completely slipped my mind
"Um Sophie" Nick's voice said snapping me out of my thoughts
"Uh sorry" I said
"Be down in a minute" I said as I ran up the stairs
(Jimmy's POV)
"Well James I have to hand it to you. You know how to impress a girl" she said as we stood on the private beach
"I aim to please. Speaking of which let's start the picnic" I said laying out a blanket and putting the basket down.
Soon I took out all the delicious food my mom cooked and put the roses in a vase putting it in the center of the blanket beside of the campaign
"Wow fancy" she said before I threw out the campaign in glasses.
We sat, ate and drank while music that Libby hooked me up with played.
After packing up we laid on the blanket watching the sunset. She was laying on my chest and I had my arms were around her as I smiled.
When the sun was gone completely gone she got up
"So what's next?" She asked
"It's getting late. I think we should head home" I said getting up as her fun smile turned into one of disappointment
"Unless you have another idea?" I asked before she smiled again and started talking off her clothes. All her clothes!
"It's such a beautiful night and we have an entire beach to ourselves. It would be a shame to go back without going for a little swim" she said taking off her bra.
My words of protest got dropped from my mouth because my jaw had dropped on the sand. Skinny dipping. She wanted to do skinny dipping. Oh my God am I dreaming? Skinny dipping with Betty Ann Turner. This has to be a dream right. If it is please don't wake up
"Come on James" she said as she put her hands on my chest
"Don't tell me you don't want to swim with me" she said as her hands made its way to my jacket and pulled it off before making her way to the hem of my shirt and pulled it over my head before wrapping her hands around my neck and threw it on the sand then she moved slowly from my back to the buckle of my belt before she took it then my pants off.
I tried protesting but her breast were pressed up against my chest then she tried taking off my underwear
"Okay okay that can stay" I said embarrassed. My face now a deep shade of crimson
"Do you really want to go back in soggy underwear?" She asked
"I don't see you worrying about it" I said thinking she wouldn't take off her underwear
"I guess it's only fair" she said as she stepped back and took off her underwear then threw it in my chest and I caught it
'No way!' I thought as I stared at it
"This way James" she said as I looked up to see her naked figure enter the water.
And with that the last bit of my self-control left and I stripped and entered the water.
I swam over to where she was and she wrapped her arms around my head. We were waist deep in water holding unto each other
"I knew you would come around" she said
"With the invitation you gave me I couldn't exactly say no" I said blushing as she smirked and gripped my hair then moved closer to my ear
"Since I got you hot. Let me help you cool off" she whispered before pushing my head under the water for about a minute before letting go. I got up and spat the water out of my mouth and glared playfully at the laughing beauty in front of me
"You're so gonna get it Turner" I said
"You'll have to catch me first" she said as she swam away.
I chased after her and when I caught her I lifted her up and threw her in the water then pulled her up.
With my hands around her waist I stared into her sparkling eyes as the water dripped from our bodies then the distance slowly started closing them she wrapped her arms around my neck and pulled me closer connecting our lips.
We kissed passionately for three minutes before breaking for air.
We just stared at each other with smiles on our faces before a wave crashed against us submerging us in the water. Betty started laughing after we resurfaced
"Getting a little hands aren't we" She said playfully but I just got a confused look
"My hands are on your waist" I said
"Then what's going up my leg" she said worriedly
I dipped into the water and saw a snake the size of my hand wrapped around her leg making its way up. After seeing the snake I went back up
"Okay Betty. Don't move. There's a snake on your leg.Got it" I said before she nodded then I smiled as I dived down and grabbed unto the snake
'I hope this thing isn't poisonous' I thought before I yanking it off her leg and rushing to the top. The snake wiggled and wormed in my hands before I felt its fang go into my right hand. But I finally got a good grip before throwing it as far as I far. I started swimming back to shore but soon found my head getting lighter and so I passed out mid stroke
"Jimmy" I heard Betty's voice say before feeling something soft on my lips then a force pushing on my chest making in spit out the water in my lungs before I looked at Betty who let out a relieved sigh
"Betty" I said after my coughing fit
"About time you woke up I was getting worried" she said
"Did you just give me mouth to mouth" I said smiling
"Yeah" she said as I looked down to see that my hand was bandaged
"What happened to my hand?" I asked
"The snake was poisonous. So I had to suck out the venom" she said
"So you find my first aid kit" I said
"Yeah" she said
"Yeah I think we should head home now" I said as I got up then we went back in the car
"You're gonna have to be the one to drive. I can't move that much" I said. Wow the venom in that snake is really potent. I should try collecting a sample. It spreads really fast
"Sure" she said before we got in the car. Midway to town the car started making strange noises
"What is that?" she asked
"I don't know" I said before the car suddenly stopped
"Oh great" I said sarcastically
"I'm guessing that's bad" she said
"We might need to call someone" I sighed. I normally would be able to do this myself but considering my current situation that was still impossible. Soon the repairman came taking a look at the engine
"This is probably the worst date you've ever been on right" I said laying in Betty's lap in the backseat
"Let's see. I had to save my date's life twice. One from snake venom then from drowning. That's a different type of sucking and kissing than I'm use to. And to top it all of I probably got sand in places they shouldn't be" she said
"So worst date ever?" I said smiling grimly
"I've had worst plus I also got to drink fancy wine as well as stay on a beach by myself and who knows maybe next time we can fulfill a fantasy of mine" she said with a wink
"Okay the fact that you had worse dates scares me" I said before she giggled before giving me another kiss
The kiss was amazing but it didn't feel the same as other kisses I've got from Sophie but it was really good though
All throughout the kiss I was comparing the two then she broke the lock and looked at me
"Hey lovebirds. The car's fix" he said tapping the window
"Thank you" I laughed paying him
"You should go back to drive" I said after one more kiss. She went back to the driver's seat directly after and we went straight up
"Thank you for the dinner. I had a great time" she said
"I did too" I said
"Well see you tomorrow James" she said before she walked away
Swinging her hips as I watched her walk to the door then she opened it walked inside and blew me a kiss before closing the door
"See ya" I said smiling like a buffoon
(Sophie)
The night was going wonderfully Nick and I were sitting in the restaurant talking about our day when suddenly his phone went off with one look his smile went away
"Um..... Who is it?" I asked
"No one" he said hanging up
"Okay" I said before the ringtone went off again
"Doesn't seem like no one" I said
"Yeah it's just a friend" he said hanging up again then the person called again
"Come on. Take a hint" he said
"Nick it's okay. Answer the phone"
"You sure" he asked
"Yes go" I said
"I'll make it quick I promise" he said as he got up and answered the phone before walking out.
So there I was stuck in the restaurant fiddling my thumbs for five minutes when suddenly I got a message. I took out my phone and went on Instagram and the first thing I see is Jimmy and Betty taking a selfie on the beach on James story. My blood was boiling and I was angry but I didn't know why. Was it jealousy. No way that couldn't have been it. Why would I be jealous of Taylor. But if you're gonna get a girlfriend. Did it seriously have to be her. There's so many better girls in the town and he choose Betty. It really pisses me off
"Sophie. Sophie" Nick's voice said knocking me out of my thoughts
"Huh. Sorry I spaced out" I said
"You've been doing that a lot lately. Is something up?" he said
"No I'm fine. I guess classes have made me a little stress" I said with a fake smile
"Okay. You should take more breaks. All work and no play makes Sophia a dull girl" he said
"Coming from the guy that refuses to go to school" I said
"It was just one day Soph"
"Yeah it was just one day last time. But then that turned into one week then one month before long it was one semester. After that you never go to school. You know just because your parents have money doesn't mean you can slack off your whole life Nick"
"Look I'm sorry okay. Can we just stop talking about this. I promise I'll be at school tomorrow"
"Whatever. How was your call?" I asked
"It's okay" he said with a smile
"So who was it?" I asked
"One of my friends" he said
"Oh a friend. Would this friend happen to be a girl?" I asked
"Yeah" he said
"Is she good looking?" I asked
"I guess why?" He asked nonchalantly cutting his steak
"Oh no reason" I said cutting my steak
"Wait. Sophia Aurora Vortex are you jealous?" He asked a smug smile
"Hmph as if" I said putting it in my mouth
"I understand why you would be I mean she is insanely hot" He said
"Hot?" I said curious
"Yeah she gets mistaken for a model all the time" he said
"A model huh" I said
"She has such a great figure. Big breast, slim waist and a phat ass-" he said before realizing he was doing too much
"Why did you stop? Please carry on" I said
"You know now that I think about it. She isn't all that beautiful. Especially if I compare her to you" he said
"Mm hmm. Nice save lover boy" I said before a waiter came up to us
"Is it time for dessert all ready?" Nick asked
"Um yes. But there's someone here to see you" he said before Nick looked behind me then growled angrily
"Damn it" he said under his breath
"Just give me a minute please" he said before he got up and walked out the restaurant once again
"Um Madam" he said
"Not married" I said
"Uh?" he said
"You say Madam when the person is married otherwise it's mademoiselle" i explained
"I'm sorry i didn't do well in French class at all. I'm actually just filling in for a guy" he explained
"Oh it's okay. I was just pointing something out" I said
"Thanks a lot so would you like to eat your dessert here or to go?" The waiter asked
"Here please" I said before he left
I turned around and saw Nick arguing with a blonde girl.
She looked a little older than us I'd say about a year or two. She looked like she was a size two so needless to say she had a slim waist but surprisingly enough she had big asset in front and behind. She was exactly as Nick described. The perfect example of an hour glass figure and her beautiful face made her even more attractive. About a few minutes later he gave her money then a kiss on the cheek. I sighed as I called the waiter over
"Sorry about this but could I change that to go please" I said before calling an Uber
"Sure" he said as he went back to the chef.
About a minute later Nick came back
"Sorry about that? She just wanted to borrow some money" He said
"No it's okay" I said getting up and taking up my purse
"Where are you going?" I asked
"I'm getting a little tired. I should be heading home. I have school tomorrow" I said as the waiter came back and gave me the dessert
"Thanks a lot" I said
"Okay at least let me drive you home" he said
"No I'm fine. I already called an uber" I said as I started heading for the door.
He chased after me after paying
"Come on Sophie let me drive you home" he said
"I'm okay" I said
"Is it about Vanessa. Listen she's just a friend" he said
"It's not about her. I just have school early tomorrow" he said
"Then let me drive you home" he said
"Nick I'm fine" I said
"You'll reach home faster" he said before a car pulled up beside me
"Are you Sophie Vortex?" He asked
"Yeah that's me" I said as I opened the door
"Fine" Nick said before he walked to the driver's seat window and gave him a hundred dollar bill
"Make sure she gets home okay and you can give the change to her" he said before leaning up allowing the driver to drive away
He drove me back to my house and started to give me the change
"You can keep it" I said as I got out and he drove away then I looked across the street and saw Taylor parking the old car on his lawn. I made my way over to him and said
"Hey Taylor"
"Vortex what are you still doing up?" He asked
"I just got back from a date" I said
"Really. Did Nick get a new car?" He asked
"No I took an uber" I said
"Yikes guessing the date didn't go so well" he said
"It was fine until he kissed a girl in front of me" I said
"Did he really do that?" He asked
"Well technically it was behind my back and it was just a little peck on the cheek" I admitted getting a laugh
"Sophie that's nothing to be mad about" he laughed
"Anyway. How was your....date" I said chucking out the last word
"It was okay I guess" he said with a perverse grin making me glare at him
"Okay huh" I said
"Yeah I mean we went on a picnic" he said
"That's all" I said
"Um we kissed I guess" he said
"Like a little peck" I asked
"Um do you remember how we kissed last month?" He asked before my heart felt like it was about to burst
"Vortex. You okay?" He asked seeing me clutch my chest
"I'm fine. I think I'm coming down with something. I just need to get home okay. School tomorrow" I said
"Actually there's no class tomorrow Miss will be out" he said
"Oh I still need to finish up my homework" I lied before I rushed across the street
"Bye" he called out but I didn't respond I just entered my house slamming the door behind me for sliding down in putting my face in my lap as tears ran down my eyes
'Why am I crying' I thought to myself
