Chapter 7 - He is Everywhere

Start from the beginning
                                    

"Well I went to the park this morning and Ezra happened to be running and came to talk to me. We talked for about a minute and he kept on getting closer... so... I kicked him in the nuts and ran." I said really fast.

His eyes widened and he started to laugh. He laughed so much it made me laugh and soon enough we were both on the floor laughing. As soon as we stopped laughing we sat up against our lockers and just talked. There were little kisses here and there, but you don't want to hear about that.

Every time he started to laugh again I would kiss him to stop him from mocking me. Soon the bell rang and I was headed to health class. One of the classes I have with Aurelia and one of the classes I don't have with Uriah. Aurelia came into class beaming; I could tell Uriah had told her. She sat down right in front of me and turned around. She just said, "Tell."

I told her how I was the first to tell him I liked him, and then how he asked me to be his boyfriend. Then I told her about how I said yes if he could catch me. I left out the gingerbread man part because I am pretty sure I was drunk on love. And I told her about how we almost got caught by an old lady.

"What! He asked you to be his boyfriend!?" We laughed until tears were streaming down our faces. "Oh my goodness!! And you ran! This has got to be the best way to ask someone out!"

"Yeah except it would suck if the person couldn't run fast." I stuck out my tongue.

My cheeks were now red and I was smiling like the goof I was. Class started and of course it was all about relationships, so every second Aurelia would give me the googly eyes and we would both go into a fit of giggles. I'm pretty sure teachers literally hated us.

Half-way through the class, the teacher caught us giggling like crazy and sent us out. As soon as we got out of class we just started to laugh even more and barely could control ourselves. We went to the washroom to check our makeup and it was completely ruined. So much for having all the guys wanting you. We fixed our makeup and started to walk down the hallway.

I told her about what happened this morning with Ezra and she bombarded me with a great bear hug.

She looked at me with admiration and said, "I am so glad you did that.. I bet he would have kissed you. I hate that jerk. Ugh...” Tears started to form in her eyes and she looked at me and said. "I actually thought we might've got married one day and then the next he broke my heart." real sad tears fell down her face and I wiped them away. 

"We'll find you someone new. Someone who deserves to be loved by you. I won't let anyone else hurt you, and if someone else does... I have a shovel in my backyard with their name on it."

She smiled and said, "At least this time I didn't put any eyeliner on the bottom. Is any of my makeup running?"

I smiled and shook my head.

We walked in silence arm in arm and sat down by her locker. The comfortable silence continued until the bell rang.

 We promised that tonight we would have a sleepover and I couldn't focus all day because I was so excited.

***********************

The end of the school day bell came finally. After waiting for so long. I went to my locker and took some of my homework. 

Uriah came up behind me and gave me a hug. He whispered in my ear, "Want to go out on a date tonight?"

I whispered back, "Sorry babe, Your boyfriend is busy. Your sister and me are going to have a sleepover."

He frowned at me and said sarcastically, "What a lovely sister I have!"

I laughed and gave him a small peck. He chuckled and pulled me closer. "Bye, Sweetheart."

"Sweet heart? Okay... Bye Love Bug" I said sweetly.

He chuckled sending shivers down my spine into my toes. We were still hugging when someone cleared there throat. We turned around and saw Aurelia. 

She tried to hide her smile but it came anyways.

We walked back to my house, when we got to the house we opened up the door to smell something amazing! "What is cooking? It smells amazing, Betty!"

"Mhm." Aurelia said. "Hi Mrs. Beard. Nice to see you again, would it be okay if I could have a sleepover with Destiny?"

"Yes, you can always come on over Aurelia." she smiled. "I am making a pot of soup, hope it tastes as good as it smells."

"I bet it will!" I replied. We walked to my room to put our stuff away. I opened the door and automatically screamed. Aurelia rushed towards me and I heard Betty running towards us. I just stood their eyes vacant as I looked at the pictures that magically appeared on my wall. Pictures of my father’s murderer. Who put them there? I don't know, but I was going to find out. I thought before I blacked out.
