Good morning, Mr. Adams. I assume you are Mr. Adams?”I turned to see Lea beaming widely.Where did she even come from? I looked around to see the red car that could easily buy Dad’s car a thousand times parked just a few feet away from ours. Leo was just getting out of the car.He waved and smiled shyly. “Hi.”“Where did you come from?” I wondered aloud to a smiling Lea.“I saw you getting out and knew that if I didn’t catch you now, you would try to ignore me for the rest of the day.”She didn’t have to know that I had actually decided to make an effort to be a better friend. The last thing I wanted to do was encourage Lea and make her double her efforts to being my friend.I looked away to see Dad looking dumbfounded. “Jade who i
After about another hour and half, Theo finished the chapter. I handed him a pen and a paper and told him to begin to write his essay.He groaned through it all but an hour later he managed to write something presentable enough. I took one look at his essay, told him to leave it over so that I could make some corrections then gave him another chapter to read.But Dad came back and when he found out that I had Theo over, he suddenly seemed very interested about being in front of my door, looking for something.I rolled my eyes at his less that subtle attempts at spying on us.“Dad,” I drawled at some point when I stepped out to catch him standing close to my door. He quickly pretended to be inspecting the wall.“I don’t think this paint matches with the carpet,” he mumbled.“Dad,” I scoffed. “Come on. You trust me, don’t you?”“Of course,” he said with wide eyed innocence. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”“Sure. Come on, Theo and I are trying to read. We are just reading, noth
He wasn’t kidding when he said that he was a slow reader.Thirty minutes later and is eyes still moved slowly over the first page of the chapter and he still had an entire page to go.I could have taken a nap and woken up by the time he finally finished the first page.“How much longer?” I asked, trying not to groan. “Almost done. Hey I warned you,” he said, biting his bottom lip as he read another line.“Yeah but you should have warned me that you read OLPH.”He lifted his gaze and frowned. “OLPH?”“One line per hour.”His frown clear. “Hardy har. Some of us like to read between the lines.”“Perhaps you should start reading the actual lines. It might help your grades.”He cocked his head at me. “Okay maybe you actually do hate me,” he said with a small smile.He shook his head and went back to reading, frowning over the page as if he was trying to commit every line to memory.I watched his eyes slowly drift over the words and I bit my lip. I hadn’t meant to sound rude but he seemed
“Do you want something from the kitchen?” Harry yelled from downstairs.I was climbing up the staircase, heading to my room. “No!”I needed to make a list of things that I needed to get. I decided to go with Lea after all. Why not?She wouldn’t get off my tits anyway so why not just let her drag me to the mall? We might actually have fun.I actually don’t know if I’m just trying to convince myself if I’m just still impressed by her standing up for me.I entered my room. Since my room was above the kitchen, I heard Harry moving about, slamming cupboards and the fridge door. Why the idiot had to go about banging everything was beyond me but I was grateful when he finally closed the kitchen door.I plopped on my bed with my hands above my head, grateful for the time alone. School had been one hell of a rollercoaster today but at least now I can reset before tomorrow.I rolled over on my bed and was about to grab my phone and my headset off the nightstand when the doorbell went off.I pa
"Can you listen to yourself right now? You sound ridiculous!""Do I?" Kendall demanded in a raised voice. "Or am I doing exactly what every sane girl would do when her boyfriend suddenly starts acting suspicious around the new girl?""Kendall..."Kendall moved closer but made no attempt to lower her voice. "I know you Theo. Just like I know every single one of you," she turned to the rest of the class, specifically the girls as she pointed her pink tipped nail at them. "You rats can never be me no matter how hard you try. You can never have Theo.""I'm not sure we are the ones you should worry about," Lea said, pretending to scratch her chin as she looked away.Kendall's cold blue eyes landed on her. "What did you just say weirdo?"Lea turned to face her squarely without a hint of fear in her eyes. "I said...""She said nothing!" Theo said quickly. He threw me a cutting glance as he grabbed Kendall's arm again and tried to pull her away. "It's not worth it...""I want to hear what the
I knew I should have gotten new bras before moving, now my boobs won't stay still. I jogged slowly still I was painfully aware of just how much bouncing my boobs did.Crossing my hands tight across my chest, I managed to pick up a pace that wasn't too slow and wasn't too fast either."I'm pretty sure you'd feel more comfortable if you just dropped your hands," Lea panted beside me.I cast her a peeved side glance. "And give the whole class a show. No thanks.""Could have been an easy pass to the top of the food chain. How do you think Kendall got there?"When I glared, she shrugged. "Just saying."I ignored her and held tightly but that only succeeded in slowing us down. Lea jogged by my side and May on my other side. I would have preferred if they ran ahead of me but they seemed to think that I needed company so they matched my pace.Or maybe that's just something friends do? I wouldn't know, I've never had a friend before.Soon we were falling behind."You guys can go ahead, don't wo
I couldn’t get away quick enough, but as luck would have it, as soon as I turned away from the door, I ran into someone else. I was nearly bodied to the ground.Seriously, if I bump into anyone else again, I might need to get a helmet.“I understand running in the hallway, but do students close the
“Wait, what?”“Which one of the boyfriends? She has a lot of them; boys are like toys for her.”Oh wow. Well then, I guess that was expected.“Uh… the uh… the hockey one? I mean, I think he plays hockey. I saw him with his gear outside…” I paused, deciding that I didn’t want anyone to know that Ken
I guess that was enough to convince Jerk Face that I was the devil’s incarnate because he stopped trying to rizz me up with his poor ‘charming’ skills.He turned to his friends, and I didn’t miss the way they turned to me while he whispered something to them.I made a face at them and stared right
“Alright, everyone, take your seats.”Taking a seat would have been easy for me if I hadn’t arrived in the middle of the semester. Seats and cliques were already taken and established, so I waited until everyone else had taken their seats before trying to locate an empty one.There was none.The te
