Love and Maybe Death

Chapter 18

The following Monday it was finally May 1st. Jacob and I were walking to science.

"How was your weekend?" He asked.

"Decent." I answered. "Going to the movies was the only thing I enjoyed."

Entering the classroom I sat at my seat with my science group.

Oh no.

I just realized that Daniel was in my group.

What should I do? Avoid him?

As I sat down I noticed he smiled with his cute dimples. I cringed at the sight of that. He kept starring at me every now and then which made me feel uncomfortable. I'm not sure if we should start all over.

Because if we did would I be able to trust him? Will he betray me at some point? With all these questions running through my mind I couldn't even concentrate in class.

Then I passed a note to him. I noticed my group kept glaring at me as I passed it. I wrote,

    Were you the one who left those notes on my locker?

I waited patiently as he quickly wrote. Then he passed the note back.
 

    No. Why?

My eyes widen. If it wasn't Daniel then... Hold on. It could of been him. I mean he could be lying. It must be him. Then I saw him pass another note to me. I read it. It said,

       Can we please start all over?

I hesitated. I really didn't want to. Instead I shook my head and he frowned. After bullying me? No way. When class was over he immediately came up to me.

"Listen, Alyssa. I know you may hate my guts right now but I told you already. I really am sorry."

I shook my head. "No way idiot."

"Would you just give me another chance?" He snapped.

That's when Jacob came to my rescue.

"What do you want from her?" He hissed.

I smiled.

Daniel glares at him. "None of your business!"

"Let's go, Alyssa." Jacob said.

And so I followed while Daniel just stood there in disbelief.

"What was that all about?" He asked as we walked to our next class.

I shrugged. "Nothing."

"You know you could tell me anything, right?"

"Right."

"Then what's going on?"

"Nothing much, okay!" I scolded.

He frowns at me. "Alyssa."

"What?"

"You're hiding something."

"It's nothing!"

"Okay, okay. Geez, Alyssa."

I sigh. "Sorry. I'm just not in a good mood."

"Oh."

"Well see you later. I need to go to my locker before I'm late for class." I say.

He nods and waves goodbye.

As I frantically dialed in my combo to my locker someone tapped me. Turning around I see Daniel. I cursed under my breath at the sight of him.

"What the heck do you want?" I snapped.
