Something Special (Eddie x Juicy) ✔

Chapter 12

Juicy's POV

I woke up with a huge smile on my face. Yesterday might've had its ups and downs, but at least we ended it off in a romantic way (well, to me it was). I switched on my phone and realized that I slept in! I quickly head upstairs to take a shower. Eddie though, was still in bed but laying on his side with his eyes open.

"Morning Eddie" I said

"Hey..." he mumbled

He could hardly keep his eyes open so I decided to kneel besides his bed

"What's wrong Eddie?"

"I don't think I'm going to classes today"

Sad, and obviously worried, I asked why

"Ugh, I just feel so tired and sick. Don't worry though, it's just a fever. I've taken my tablets and will be up and ready by tomorrow" said Eddie, before rolling onto his other side

If I could, I would've stayed home and look after Eddie, but I'd be late for class if I wasted anymore time. I hopped into the shower, brushed my hair and teeth and returned downstairs. I didn't have time for cereal, so I grabbed an energy bar from the pantry, threw on any shirt and jeans I could find and dashed through the door.

By the time I arrived, the passages were already empty. Oh shit, I'm late! I grabbed my timetable out of my bag and rushed towards Math class. I ran through the open door and every single student's attention shifted towards me.

"Well well well, seems like Mr Gibson finally decided to join us" uttered the professor before resuming the lesson

I awkwardly made my way through the desks before finding a spot next to Narrator

"About time you get here. Did you sleep in again or what?" said Narrator, handing me over a stack of worksheets

"The fuck is all this?" I gasped

"The work for this morning. We don't wait for any late students here at Lakewood you know? Now get writing or you'll fall behind" said Narrator, already packing away his stack

As I was trying to make out what was written on the board, Narrator nudged me.

"So.. I heard you and Eddie went out on a little date yesterday. How was it?" he said, with a smirk on his face

"It wasn't a date, Grant. We just went to the movies and then to the carnival... AS FRIENDS" I whispered

"That sounds like a date to me"

I gave up arguing with him and continued with the work. As much as I tried to concentrate and ignore Grant's occasional smirks, I began thinking about last night. Was it a date? No, it couldn't have been. Dates are for couples, not friends. Plus, he doesn't even like me in that way. But what about when we leaned on each other's shoulders or when his arm was draped over me. Does that count?

Before I could go any further into my thoughts, I was brought back to reality by the sharp strike of sir's cane against my desk

"Mr Gibson! Let's put your parents' hard earned money to good use instead of daydreaming in my class! Did you not have your fill of daydreaming yesterday?"

"He was probably out getting wasted yesterday" shouted one of the boys

"Well, I did see him out with that Eddie guy at BlueBird Fair yesterday" shouted a girl

"OOO GAEGE IS GETTING LAID!!!" shouted another boy

The class began going crazy while sir tried his best to shut them up. Juicy, now completely humiliated, pulled his jacket over his head and laid onto his arms.

Luckily for him, not too long after the catastrophe in the class, the bell rang. Josh and Mully were already waiting outside the doorway by the time the class left.

"Jesus Christ, what's going on in there?!" joked Josh

"Yeah, sounds like a riot" added Mully

"Some idiots at the back were making fun of Gaege and made rumors about his date and him getting laid by Eddie yesterday" said Narrator

"DATE?!" yelled Mully and Josh

"It's not a fucking date for the last fucking time! We just went out as friends and nothing fucking happened, OK?!" yelled Juicy before scurrying away from the group

Juicy's POV

Fuck, can I not have a single day where I don't get humiliated or not hear any rumors about Eddie and I?! I'm seriously getting sick and tired of this crap. I ran towards Physics and sat down right at the back. Thank god none of the boys were with me. As the Miss began her lesson, I took out my phone and started scrolling through my gallery. There I came across an old photo of Eddie and I. Thinking back to how sick he was and the drama I went through today, I just wish he was besides me right now. I miss him...
