A Year With Williams

Chapter 36

Day 295

In all honesty I don't want to go to school after yesterday night.

Unfortunately it's the class assembly and I can't manage to skip it.

I don't want to know what did Penny and Max talked about but I kind off do.

In spite of having my answer I don't want to face him.

"He doesn't like either of you Emmy. He likes someone else. He doesn't want to be the reason behind anyones tears. With Rachel, she would cut herself so he has to deal with her. Go talk to him."

It's crazy how these simple words from Penny's mouth were like my Patronus charm from the kiss of dementors.

But now I think I would rather kiss a dementor than facing Max.

"We need to talk." Are the first words I hear on entering the class.

That's such a cliché break up sentence.

I still nod in affirmation and take my seat ignoring the glances, whispers and the death glare from Rachel.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"How the hell did you manage to fall down of the stage?" Katie screams.

"I slipped?"

"You are such a klutz. How is your head?" She says poking my skull.

"Hey it wasn't that bad of a fall and it looked like the part of assembly."

She laughs.

"Shut it-"

And laughs more

"Hey!"

And laughs more.

*after some time*

"Are you done?"

"It was hilarious. You even screamed "I AM OKAY""

"yeah yeah, whatever." I say flipping my hair and walking away leaving the giggling mess I call my best friend.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This was going to happen sooner or later and I prefer sooner.

But now as Max walks towards me I would admit I am imitated by him. He easily towers over me and I swear I want to scream and run for the hills. He would kill me.

Or worst get me expelled.

Okay jokes aside Emmy, concentrate!

"So.... Your friend called me."

I nod unable to swallow the lump of nervousness.

"You know what. I know Emmy. I have known from a long time."

I give him a questioning look

"I know who is the guy you won't talk about. I know that he broke your heart. "

"Who told you?"

"Penny."

"She wouldn't."

"But she did."

I don't say anything.

"I don't want anything Williams. I just want a clear slate so that we can start as friends without trying to eat each other's head." I finally say.

He doesn't say anything for a while.

"I think we could do that."

"Clean slate?" I ask

"Clean slate."
