What Happens In High School

Chapter 26

Another school morning. I rubbed my eyes before sitting up completely.

After taking a quick shower,I put on a pair of blue jeans and a red hollister sweater. I pulled my hair in a pony tail. I wore my red converse ,not wanting to wear any heals. Just not in the mood.

"Morning" Austin smiled at me giving me a peck on my cheek.

"Morning " I yawned .

"Huh , someone's a bit sleepy." he snorted.

Yeah. That's how lonely people feel when they are up most of the night , thinking about the one they love , right?

How pathetic, I know. But I couldn't help but feeling guilty . Maybe if I let him talk to me , everything would be alright, or maybe, just maybe we could still be friends. Of course my love for him wouldn't  go away. Not for now at least. Or ever .

I sighed." I didn't get much sleep" i shrugged.

"Why so ?" He asked running a hand through his hair.

"Just thinking" I rubbed my eyes .

He nodded understanding what I meant.  

"I should go" I said grabbing my keys.

" Have a good day and drive safe!" He yelled out .

"Will do." I blew him a kiss before leaving.

-*-*-*-

"Hey guys" I waved and stood by Chris.

Justin and Angy waved back smiling brightly at me. Chris slung his arm around my shoulder and kissed my cheek.

" How are you doing?" he asked smiling.

"Good" I shrugged.

"Good" he smiled. I couldn't help but smile back at him.

Then came the person that as much as I didn't want to see , missed so much.

Yeah you guessed it. 

Non other than Jeremy. He waved and gave one of his heart melting smiles which made butterflies in my stomach.

"Hey everyone" he said.

We all muttered our 'hey'. Jake and Angy exchanged looks .

"We should go" they said before hurrying up and leaving.

I know what they are doing. My heart began beating faster inside my chest. I started getting nervous as I played with my hair. Then , I remembered that that was something Jeremy knew about me. I didn't want him to see me nervous so I let go of my hair.

The were all trying to get me to talk to Jeremy. Chris excused himself too and here we were both looking awkwardly at our friends walking away.

I moved my gaze and looked at Jeremy.  

His eyes landed on me again and there was a hint of guilt in them.

We stared at each other. It made me want to be in his arms and let him hold me forever. 

He brought his hands up to my face as he put a strand of my hair behind my ear. My heart was beating at an abnormal rate. I swear I thought I was going to have an heart attack.

Our eyes never broke contact . He traced his fingers on my chin and held it up as he took a couple of steps closer to me. That made my insides go crazy. How i wanted his body against mine.I could feel his heat against me .  

I finally looked back up at him and realized how close we were. He opened his mouth to say something but the bell cut him off.

He let go of me and his expression changed to complete disappointment. He sighed and turned on heals making me stand there completely dazed and disappointed.
