Me - Aaliyah baby are you ok ? I asked .
Her lips starting quivering and a tear slid down her cheek as she nodded
Liyah - give me a minute she said and rushed into the bathroom
I sighed wondering what's wrong .
Why was Devan looking at her like that ?
James walked back up to me
James - Travis is she alright ? Why is she crying ?
I took a deep breathe
Me - she's going through some family issues right now
He furrowed his eye brows
James - is that all ? He asked
I noddedJames - you sure it isn't something else that happened ? He asked hinting towards something else .
Last night when he was texting me it was like he wanted to tell me something
James - did she say anything about Devan ?
I shook my head no
Me - no why ?
James - no reason he said and walked off .
I turned my head to Devan who was at the end of the hallway with Melena .
He looked back at me and smiled .
Is there something they need to tell me ?
•••••••••
Me and Liyah don't have all of our classes together but the couple we did was spent with her being quiet as I rubbed her leg .
She wasn't saying much , just doing her work .
When lunch time came around me her and Deja walked into the lunchroom .
Me - come sit with me I said when I noticed she was walking to a table different than where I sat with Devan , James and some more of my friends at .
She shook her head no
Me - why not ?
Liyah - I don't want to be at a table with your friends Travis she said lowly
Me - please , just today ?
She scratched her head before giving in and walking to the table .
I know she's not a fan of being around my friends a lot
Devan - Hi Aaliyah he said to her as she sat down .
Deja - bitch don't try being cool with her she said as Liyah grabbed onto my arm tightly
Me - you ok ? I asked
She noddedThe whole lunch period was just awkward . Liyah eventually ended up getting up and walking away without any explanation .
Devan was just acting weird , smiling more and shit and James was looking at me . Still acting like he wanted to tell me something .
Me - Liyah where are you going ?
She said nothing but just kept walking with Deja .
I sighed and got up going to follow after her
James - uhm Travis can I talk to you ?
Me - not right now -
James - it's important .
I looked back at him and he had a guilty face .
Devan - James keep your fucking mouth closed he said through gritted teeth .
Me - what's up ?
James shook his head
James - nevermind Travis
I shook my head annoyed and walked off .
They're both hiding something from me and I know what they're hiding is gonna piss me off .
