Unrequited Love

Chapter 3: Confused

* beep beep beep *

" Ugh."

I f*cking hate waking up. I am not a morning person. At all.

I turned my alarm off and checked my phone. I had one new message.

< Kylie Cakes>
Can you give me a ride to school today?

I shot her a quick text saying I'd pick her up in 10. I took a quick shower then threw on an oversized sweatshirt with a pair of jeans and my white converse. I dried my hair a little and put it up in a messy bun.

I walked downstairs and into the kitchen where my dad was reading the newspaper.

"Good Morning Sweetie." He said without looking up from his newspaper.

" Morning," I said looking around. "Where's Claire? Did she leave already?"

" Yea she left early this morning. Justin came back home earlier than expected from his business trip so Claire left earlier. She also mentioned she had wedding things to do. "

Claire doesn't like being home alone while her future husband was away on business trips so she would stay with us. And don't get me wrong I'm happy she's getting married, Justin is a great guy and everything but I just can't  stand all the planning and stuff. It just all seems so stressful. And then whenever Claire stays with us she's obviously stressed and takes it out on me. I love her to death but sometimes I feel like chocking her.

"Fun," I grabbed my keys and backpack. " Well bye I'm leaving. "

" It's still early. "

" Yea but I have to pick up Kylie. " I said walking towards the door. " Love you!"

" Love you too sweetie. Have a good day at school. "

I got in my car and drove to Kylie's house. I was blasting Shawn Mendes music because he is literally everything. I got to Kylie's house in about 10 min, like I said I would.

" Nice music," Kylie said while closing the door. " And very fashionable." She said eyeing my appearance.

" Thanks and thanks."

" Yes! We finally have a class together!" Kylie said bouncing up and down. I felt loved.

" Yea and I heard Ms. Bun is like the best art teacher so I'm excited. " We were walking to art room, side by side, which is pretty much on the other side of school.

As soon as me and Kylie walked into the art room I saw three familiar faces. Bryan, Alex and Zach. Kylie knew all about me hanging out with them in middle school. But she never met Zach until now. F*ck.

" Yo, who's that cute guy next to Bryan and Alex?" Kylie said whispering in my ear.

" Zach Johnson."

"Oh," Kylie said while checking him out. " He's f*cking hot. "

" Yea I know. "

" Hey Madelyn! Come sit over here!"
Zach said with a smile. His damn smile.

I looked at where he was sitting. He was sitting at the table across the room and closet to the window. Bryan and Alex were also sitting at his table, obviously. Alex sitting in the seat closest to the window with Bryan sitting across from him and Zach sitting next to Alex. There were two empty seats at that table. And of course one of them was next to Zach and the other next to Bryan. Great. Just my luck.
