"Okay, bye. I love you too."
156Please respect copyright.PENANA25bqXoQBhU
I heard a deep voice next to me having a conversation with someone. I barely knew what was going on because, just like every time I wake up, it takes me a few seconds to collect myself.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAmGkBCGEN8M
I took in my surroundings and was immediately familiar with the room. We slept in Ians room again. I noticed myself splayed out on the bed taking up most of the space. I moved to the side of the bed and rubbed my eyes before looking around further. Ian was at his desk, on the phone writing things down on his laptop. Yawning, I decided it was a good time to get up.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAra3yX4PpQf
"Morning sunshine." He said hanging the phone up. He turned to me than got up and sat next to me on the bed.
156Please respect copyright.PENANA0QMv7qm5y2
"Good-morning." I croaked. My voice cracked and I covered my mouth in embarrassment but he just laughed.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAbSU1rqRJP8
"Did you sleep well?"
156Please respect copyright.PENANAn9CXa8NMkQ
"Yes. It slept amazing. Did you?"
156Please respect copyright.PENANAlDlC6XaLZD
"Yes, I did."
156Please respect copyright.PENANAW5LwqYRWYP
"Who was that on the phone?" I was curious. I heard the last part of their conversation and it peaked my interest. Mostly because I heard him say "I love you" to someone.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAy59iR780Ii
"My mom. They're in Tokyo."
156Please respect copyright.PENANAni93IwWrto
"Oh. That sounds lovely, is everything alright with them?"
156Please respect copyright.PENANA0p3F8PyK4W
"Yeah, she's just checking on me."
156Please respect copyright.PENANAmwYjpNCI8X
I nodded.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAWKpnDT33Sr
"What time is it? We have class pretty soon."
156Please respect copyright.PENANAELO7RdJRkX
"It's eight."
156Please respect copyright.PENANAuWV4nW3Rpv
"It is? I need to hurry then!" I rushed up and sped to the door leaving Ian on the bed. I went to the room next door where the remainder of my things were and dug through my duffle bag for clothes. I still haven't unpacked yet because I was...preoccupied. My hair was a mess. It kept growing into a fro and looked like a tornado went through it. It wasn't too long though so it was manageable. I wet it to try to define the curls and shook my head a few times so it would fluff out.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAbMDd9LP2GZ
After finishing tidying myself up for school, Ian and I met downstairs. There were left overs from yesterday in the fridge and the kitchen and living room was spotless as if we never stepped foot in there. Even out shoes were cleaned and placed in the front neatly.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAgTd4IrH8Om
I didn't have time to sit and eat a big breakfast so I settled on a banana.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAnsE9FjrEtr
Ian on the other hand took his time. His uniform was sitting loosely on him and the first three buttons of the dress shirt were undone. He wasn't wearing his tie, which was a strict part of the uniform that I watched lots of people get reprimanded for, but never him. The skin on his chest was toned and hard. I couldn't look away. I felt my face heat up a little from thinking of the things we did this weekend. I never wanted the weekend to end. I felt like I was on a holiday with him.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAbIoBr6AOBD
His feelings for me were very evident now and I was (hopefully) done overthinking every interaction we had. I know he liked me and he reassured me many times. I didn't want him to get tired of me constantly doubting his intentions but it was a natural instinct for me. Not to say I thought I was ugly but I wasn't a model. It just seemed weird that I was attractive to him because I didn't seem like his type. Especially after the stories Jordan told me, about him and Macy. I look nothing like her.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAteHGNkrmOg
I wanted to ask him why me or about Macy but I knew those questions would come up later in time, right now I just wanted to enjoy the moments we had. Which were great by the way.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAIyIx22SN9N
The way he touched me had me jumping up and down like a school girl excitedly and I could not wait to tell Jordan everything. I tried not to act like it was a big deal but I was mentally doing backflips screaming like a child. It was my first time doing something like that with anyone ever and it was better than I ever expected it to be. I know that it wasn't sex but for me it was a huge milestone.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAR8Mj7kk5rC
It made me wonder what he thought of it. If it was a big deal to him or was it just another day. Considering how much more experienced he is than me, it probably wasn't as exciting to him.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAuqQykGcoQc
I cleared my thoughts as Ian finished his waffle and put his plate into the sink.
156Please respect copyright.PENANA1xv9cGH8FL
When we got to school, The first thing I did was text Jordan. It was Monday, so I went to my first class of the day which was environmental science. I was sitting at a B+ in that class so I couldn't afford to be late again. She counted for attendance daily and told us that even if we are so little as five minutes tardy to not bother.
156Please respect copyright.PENANADGatHIblOW
The day flew by fast. It felt that way because most of my classes I was day dreaming. I couldn't wait for lunch time so I could tell the girls about my weekend. I missed hanging out with them and it felt like a century since I properly talked to Sarah. She hasn't replied to my messages but it's not new for her to not respond, her phone was always on do not disturb. The last time we spoke she asked me to find a way to get Kai to take her to the banquet. Although my efforts were minimal I did try, I didn't want to beg Ian to talk to his brother if they weren't close. I hope she understood.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAu3hAzF2hQs
The last bell sounded and I almost jumped out of my seat. I went to the cafeteria and the first thing I did was text the group chat.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAWv9WZDLPSe
Are you guys eating lunch in the cafe?
156Please respect copyright.PENANArVxboWx0jz
I walked into the cafeteria and my ears filled with loud talking and laughing. The cafe was full today and there were almost no seats left open. I skimmed around the room and spotted Jordan in line.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAmXQvY0lnKi
"Jordy!" I yelled.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAzl7nD1lTAM
She turned her head and skipped towards me and we hugged like we hadn't seen each other in weeks.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAhRG9IuUilu
"Oh my gosh I missed you!" She said jumping up and down while bringing me with her.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAHAZb2xqSr8
"I missed you too! I have so much to tell you."
156Please respect copyright.PENANAQAZQ0zakzS
"Oh you better have a lot to tell me bitch. You went to Ian's house and didn't update the next day. I need full on details down to the time stamps." She said with a stern face. I know she meant it too which made me laugh out loud. We stood in line until we reached the lunch ladies who gave us our food for the day. Spaghetti and meatballs.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAxZdnyInjIG
"Where's Sarah?" I spoke as we carried our tray to the table we usually sat at.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAFbW37ldP5T
"I think she said she was sick? She hasn't been answering my texts which isn't like her to go the whole weekend without answering at-least once."
156Please respect copyright.PENANA9maP6OYXkH
I wonder if she's okay.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAWpFQDBxNqT
"Maybe call her again?" I suggested. "She hasn't talked to me since the banquet. She really wanted to go with Kai and I didn't get a chance to explain why I couldn't."
156Please respect copyright.PENANAyI8r2RF9gi
"Speaking of the banquet you need to spill the beans! Don't think I didn't see the way you two were looking at each other during the last dance." She nudged my arm and I rolled my eyes. Nothing gets past her.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAdmOS20ExdX
I began to explain the night of the banquet to her but I didn't get far when I spotted Sarah waltzing into the cafe.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAqKIGWMj5SO
"Look Sarah's here!" I pointed at the entrance and Jordan popped her head up from her food.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAjqcwDxsnnr
She looked completely different. I had to do a double take to make sure that I didn't mistake another girl for her. We knew that she had dyed her hair black but she now had blonde highlights through out and the long hair she had before was replaced with a short bob barely brushing her shoulders. She had an aggressive tan, which didn't look bad on her but it was quite a change from her pale porcelain skin.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAtu5dAtmBDZ
She walked straight to the table that Ian and his friends sat at and made sure to wave flirtatiously at Kai. She then made her way to our regular spot in the cafe and sat down stiffly.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAKhaajIlEsa
"Well hello hot stuff." Jordan worded baffled at the new appearance Sarah had.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAOXu71WbSXq
"I got highlights!"
156Please respect copyright.PENANAzZz9T9FqHN
"And a tan I see." Jordan still in shock.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAZxrOi6Dkgl
Sarah shrugged and dug into her food. Jordan and I looked at each other with confusion. She just shrugged and also continued to eat.
156Please respect copyright.PENANALzMsAen8qm
"Sarah where have you been? You've been M.I.A all weekend?" I interrupted our chewing to break the silence with a question i've been longing to ask.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAxAb9ovqa58
She snorted a laugh and continued eating as if I never said a word.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAE9tHjuydHr
Okay?
156Please respect copyright.PENANAaUzl7QQ16s
"Sarah?"
156Please respect copyright.PENANAZxYxc8878M
"Funny because I could ask you the same."
156Please respect copyright.PENANAH6t5ftmrY5
Jordan looked up from her spaghetti and eyes both of us down with another look of confusion.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAfRDPU6H9xP
"What are you talking about?" I was just as confused as she was.
156Please respect copyright.PENANA8ojW3ckWOw
"It's weird because I never took you as back stabbing bitch but yet here we are."
156Please respect copyright.PENANA3BVEH83tCe
"Sarah!" Jordan yelled. My mouth dropped open at her words. I couldn't even process what she said.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAuGbGvvhWgP
A back stabbing bitch?
156Please respect copyright.PENANAwzwuKCES42
"Was Ian not enough for you? Or are you bored of him already."
156Please respect copyright.PENANA39oI3ZpCPw
"Sarah WTF are you even saying right now?" Jordan budded in. I didn't say anything. I was stunned into silence and honestly didn't even know what to say.
156Please respect copyright.PENANASWpJFwfKrB
"Are you mute? Tell Jordan how you were all over Kai at the banquet."
156Please respect copyright.PENANAj53OJg309m
"Sarah I-"
156Please respect copyright.PENANAdM5uImm5er
"I didn't even believe it at first and thought it didn't even sound like you. But it makes sense, you didn't even try to ask Ian to talk to Kai about taking me. My friend Natalie was there and saw you two talking by the bathroom and told me everything."
156Please respect copyright.PENANADuxHHLl0sh
"Sarah I didn't flirt with him! If anything he was trying to talk to me but I shut it down. I don't like him Sarah, you have to believe-"
156Please respect copyright.PENANA5bp2Aq2gtr
"Oh now that's just hysterical. Kai Peters flirting with you. He would never like a girl like you."
156Please respect copyright.PENANAVrKUTnM3mX
I dropped my fork on the tray and felt fumes smoking out of my ears. Jordan was chewing food and chocked on one of her meatballs.
156Please respect copyright.PENANArrwiZuA8eQ
I stood up from my seat and grabbed my tray to leave before she decided to insult me any further.
156Please respect copyright.PENANA9eCTlWgh2F
"Sarah what's gotten into you? You know Kai is a player we've talked about this before. Why won't you believe me?"
156Please respect copyright.PENANANUhFiBU3Gs
"Why should I?" She stood up as well and we now had eyes watching on our table because of the volume of each sentence we spoke increased.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAyqE48QpmrS
"Because I'm you're friend!"
156Please respect copyright.PENANA5swRcF39Fr
"I barely know you!"
156Please respect copyright.PENANAcU4HQpSYwp
I felt tears building up in my eyes and I tried my hardest not to cry in front of all these people. I looked around to see some heads were turned to our table. I couldn't bear the embarrassment of balling my eyes out in front of all these people so I took my tray of food and rushed out of the cafeteria.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAipeUUfRhjD
I didn't really care at that point how I looked to other people around me, how sensitive or weak I looked. I just needed to get out of there and fast. I felt tears building up in my eyes and I couldn't hold them off for any longer, they threatened to spill out and blinking wasn't helping with holding them back.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAdSoekDgiwl
I stormed through the exit of the cafeteria doors and felt many eyes on me. I couldn't even feel embarrassed. I don't know why it hurt me so much to hear those words, but it stung.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAELN6VR88BC
I heard a name calling out for me and but it was far away. I just kept walking to get as far from people as I could. The one place I knew I wouldn't find anyone I knew would be the library. It wasn't too far a walk and I just decided that today I was going to eat my lunch in the library. They allowed food on the bottom level but the top floor there was no food and drink allowed because most of the computers were there.
156Please respect copyright.PENANAQBmVhVU85H
I sat in a quiet corner and listened to my music.
156Please respect copyright.PENANARdij6qXdZn
This day cannot get any worse.
