Always and Forever

Warning?

Chapter 7: Warning?

I cannot contain my excitement, today is the day Nathan comes back!

Nathan, my best friend.

Now I know that a girl and guy friendship is always presumed to end up in a relationship. I do admit I used to like Nathan. But not anymore, those feelings died a while back but I now realise that they weren't really feelings, I just admired his personality and mistook my love for him as a friend for something more than that. But now we are just the best of buddies! I love him. He's everything I could want in a best friend. He had to go to visit his grandparents for a few months, so he wasn't in school and I've missed him.

He's driving me to school today like he used to and he insists on taking me back home as well but it's not like I'm complaining. As long as it's just for today because I really want to ride my baby.

Why isn't he here yet? What if he doesn't come at all?

Before I could go crazy with worry a car honked outside. That must be him! Excitement ran through my veins as I peeked out the window trying to spot his red car and there it was.

There he was.

I ran out the house and towards him, as he got out of his car ready to embrace me in a hug.

Nathan still looks so good. I wonder how the girls at school will react now that he's back. They all swoon over him.

He was wearing black faded jeans with a simple V-neck top, which showed, off his muscles. His dark brown hair shone in the sunlight and created a twinkle in his light brown eyes. He hasn't changed. Not one bit.

I jumped into his arms anticipating the feeling of being close to him again.

"Hey you."

I didn't bother replying, I just hugged tighter in response. He was so soft and cuddly despite all his muscles that was what I loved about him.

He laughed and hugged me tighter in return.

Once our little reunion was over we decided it was time to get in the car and actually make our way to school.

"So, what's changed?" He asked with a smile

"You will see, won't you?" I retorted

He smirked, "I guess I will?"

****

Turns out Nathan schedule was very similar to mine, minus a few lessons. Overall, I was glad. I could help him catch up on a few things and annoy him in lessons.

The first lesson we had together was History and we were making our way there when I realised that I have to choose to sit beside Hunter or Nathan. For the past week I've been sitting with Hunter for everything just because it sort of felt right.

If I sit next to Hunter I might risk Nathan getting bombarded with all those plastic Barbie's. However, if I sit next to Nathan, Hunter might... Well I don't think Hunter would do anything but something inside me didn't want me to not sit next to him.

We entered the classroom and the class was already packed. Already all the girls had gathered around Nathan asking him so many annoying questions. I guess that was inevitable. They were asking stupid questions like

"Did you remember me while you were gone?" Why the heck would Nathan remember this chick? He doesn't even know who she is.

I noticed Hunter sleeping. I've come to know that he doesn't really sleep; he just puts his head down and rests, every lesson.
