Chereads / The Lives of Two Lovers / Chapter 2 - Chapter 2

Chapter 2 - Chapter 2

The bell rang and all the students got up and left the classroom. School is out and it is time to go home, sighing I walk out of the classroom and over to my locker. That's when I notice Leo over at his across the hall. I want to walk over there so bad, but after he rejected me I am not sure if it was a good idea to do so. After getting my things, I close my locker and head outside to wait for my ride. As I stood there waiting for my ride, I noticed Quinn and Leo talking. Quinn looked a little mad at him, but Leo paid no mind. After she was done saying something to him, he started walking in my direction. That's when he noticed me and turned the other way.

Looking away I sighed, thinking what could I have done to make him hate me. He doesn't even know me like that. We technically just ate lunch, like I had never even seen him in the halls.

After a few minutes, my dad finally arrived. Walking to the car and getting in, my dad asked, "How was your first day of school?"

Sighing, "It was okay, it wasn't the best day but life happens."

As we drove away from school, my dad looked over at me for a split second and looked back at the road. "Why, what happened?"

Sighing and looking down, "There is this boy that his girlfriend had broken up with, and I was trying to be friends with him but he told me no. And I don't know why it's bugging me so much, but it is."

Nodding his head slowly processing everything I just told him, "Well all I can say is keep trying, don't give up. He'll come around, and he might not know it yet but I am sure he needs a friend right now."

"Well he has Quinn", I said while looking out the window.

"That doesn't mean anything, he could need someone that isn't fully close to him yet to talk with."

Shrugging my shoulders.

Finally getting home, I get out of the car and walk inside. I walked into my room to sit down, and looked at my phone to check and see if my boyfriend had responded back to me, but sighed when I saw nothing.

That's when a knock came on the door. "Come in," I said with a sigh.

In walks my dad, "Dinner is done. Come and eat before you start doing homework."

"Yes sir, I'll be right there." Getting up and walking into the kitchen.

Grabbing a couple of slices of pizza and sitting at the table.

Leo's POV:

Walking home from school I kept thinking back to Rose. I just didn't have the courage to walk up to her after getting yelled at by Quinn. When I turned around and saw her, she looked so sad.

Finally getting home, I walked into the house and went straight to my room. I went over to my computer desk to sit at it. As I look at my computer, I start to zone out.

Breaking me from my zone, there was a knock on my door. Trying to sound okay, so whoever is knocking doesn't turn on.

"Come in."

My mom, Debra, walks in asking how my day was.

Trying my best to be as positive as possible. "It was okay for being a first day. It went by slow that's for sure."

Nodding her head, "Okay well that's good, well come out to eat dinner please."

"I'm not hungry right now mom, I might play some games beforehand."

"Okay but make sure you get something to eat please."

"Okay, mom."

With that, she walks out. Looking back at my computer, I think that playing some games will get my mind off of what happened today.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Rose's POV:

After I was done eating, I went back to my room to start on my homework. I put my headphones in, to distract me from the noises around me and to get things off my mind.

As I'm choosing a song my phone starts to go off. Starts to get excited, seeing that it's my boyfriend, Dean. Answering it:

"Hey, baby."

"Hey babe, how was your first day of school."

"It was okay, not the best. How about yours my love."

"It was good. Why wasn't it the best for you babe."

"It's a long story, I really don't want to talk about it, to be honest."

"Are you hiding something from me?"

"No baby, I just don't want to talk about it all."

"Fine."

The lines get quiet.

"Okay Dean, I'm going to let you go. I've got schoolwork today. And I have to get it done before I go to bed."

"Okay babe, I'll talk to you tomorrow then. I love you."

"I love you too, bye."

With that, I hung up and started getting schoolwork done before getting to bed.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Leo's POV:

Looking at the clock, reading 11:30 pm. Thinking, shit I was supposed to eat and get schoolwork done. I got off the game and headed to the kitchen quietly.

Noticing all the lights are off, starts to debate whether or not to get food.

Heads back to the room and start getting schoolwork done.

Not even getting done with the first page, I decided to go to bed.
