the bad boy and a broken nerd

chapter 14: something big

What is he doing here? Wait did he say sister? OH Abby said her last name was Bec... stupid me.

"Oh uhm... hey, Alex" i tell him a bit awkwardly. That's just because i'm awkward okay?

"What are you doing here? I thought you said you were going to school today?" he questions me. Why?

"I was at school. And i left because i got sick of it" i told him bluntly

He chuckles

"What's funny?" i ask him. Confused as to why he is finding this funny

"Oh nothing. It's just that the nerd skips school. Never heard of it" he tells me with sarcasm laced in his voice.

I ignore his statement and ask him a question

"Why aren't you at school?" i ask him

"Alex and I are having a sibling day. Next we are going to the movies want to come?" Abby answers my question. Awe they are having a sibling day! I don't want to ruin their 'sibling day' so i'll pass on the movies

"Uhm i don't want to intrude on your sibling day" i tell Abby. and it might be awkward with Alex...

"Oh come on, please. Alex won't mind. Right?" she questions Alex.

I look over to Alex and raise my eyebrow

"I don't mind if Ellie wants to come then sure" wait what? He wants me to come?

"Please Ellieeeee" Abby drags out my name, and gives my puppy dog eyes. Ugh who can say no to those? Heartless animals.

"Fine, i have nothing to do anyways" i give in

"Yay!!" Abby squeals

--

So the car ride wasn't awkward at all because Abby kept on filling the silence.

And we decided to watch the movie love, simon. Of course Alec didn't want to but it was 2 against 1.

It was a really cute movie and i could tell we all liked it even Alex

I check my phone to see what time it is and i see i have 21 unread messages. Oh fuck.

I click on the messages and see that most of them are from Aunt E

Aunt E- why did you leave school

Aunt E- where are you?

Aunt E- you can't just leave school!

Aunt E- Ellison Marie Anderson! Answer your phone!

And it basically goes on like that.

Me- sorry, i had a stomach bug so i left school.

I lied.

My phone buzzes so i check it again

Aunt E- Okay but you should have told me. And where are you? i want you home now!

Me- okay, okay. I'm coming

"Hey Alex can you take me home?" i ask him. I don't really want to go home. I would really rather hang out with Alex and Abby.

"No!! Do you have to go home?" Abby questions me.

"Yes my Aunt wants me home, abby" i told her. I really hope she doesn't ask questions as to why my aunt would want me home and not my parents

"Okay fine... but will you hang out again?" her voice is full of hope. Should i? Why the fuck not. Right
