Deceived Heart
Amelia's POV :
My alarm goes off reminding me that I have to go to hell . I kind of regret asking my parents for this but then I wouldn't have met my Tyler and Freya . I walk into my black and white tiled bathroom which honestly reminds me of a piano , I walk over to my shower letting the water run so that when I get in the water could be warm . I get undressed and I get rid of the bandage that is covering the tattoo . The new ink looks beautiful due to it being so small but you can tell that it's there .
I get into my shower scrubbing myself off quickly as soon as I'm done I get out with my blue fluffy towel drying myself off . I wrap it around my chest so that I can brush my teeth , as soon as I'm done I go to my closet so that I can pick an outfit . I decide on a pair of black high waisted jeans , my black boots and a long sleeve v-neck top where you can see the T to my tattoo . I decide to pair it off with a thick blue puffer jacket .
"Mom !" I shout as soon as I get downstairs .
"Hey Sweety , let me take you to school so that I can sleep ." She sighs .
"I honestly don't know why you take the night shift ." I chuckle grabbing the two sandwiches on the counter .
"Night shift is better because I'm in my element ." She jokes making me laugh .
I buckle my seatbelt and I unwrap my sandwich to see that my mom made peanut butter and jam which is my favorite when I'm craving it . I have my entire breakfast in the car and I have my pills showing my mother that I'm quite responsible .
"Have a good day Sweety , I'll see you later ." She waves .
"Yeah bye mom ." I roll my eyes with a chuckle .
"Well if it isn't my best friend ." Tyler says from his car .
"So I had to endure a ride with my mom who thinks I forget to take my pills while you sit here waiting for your best friend ." I roll my eyes but my lips deceive me by smiling .
"I had to drop my little brother off at school since my dad is taking the morning shift and my mom was too tired ." He shrugs giving me a hug .
"Well that hug will for sure forgive you ." I laugh .
"Dude you're so weird . Let's go ." He laughs keeping his arm over my shoulder .
"So I'm excited for today's adventure !" I say squealing .
"You're being so weird right now , I feel like you're imitating someone ." He says looking down at me .
"Cassidy , Cassidy !" I squeal laughing .
"Oh my gosh , why did I not get that sooner ?" He laughs .
"You're so slow on a Monday morning darling ." I chuckle opening my locker .
"Well if it's ugly and hot ?" We hear Cassidy practically screeching behind us .
"Oh my goodness , Tyler she just called you ugly ." I sigh putting my hand on my forehead to be dramatic .
"You stupid ugh !" She says walking away .
"Well aren't you in a mood ?" Tyler laughs with his eyebrows raised .
"I'm just happy but dude she just called you ugly ." I laugh walking in the direction of his locker .
"I'm touched that she called you hot ." He laughs .
He gets his books from his locker and we walk in the direction of Mr Clifton's class .
"Amelia , how are you feeling ?" He asks as soon as I enter the class .
"Hey Mr C , I'm good thanks how are you ?" I smile walking to his table .
"I'm good thanks ." He gives me a charming smile .
I smile and walk away from his table going to take a seat next to Tyler .
"What did Andrew want ?" Tyler asks looking angry .
"He was just asking if I was alright ." I shrug taking out my Life Sciences book .
"Be careful of him please ." Tyler mumbles .
"Why ? Does he have a reputation ?" I whisper .
"Yeah , that's all I'm going to say ." He groans .
"I promise ." I smile reassuring him .
Mr Clifton stands up as soon as the bell rings and starts teaching . The whole time Tyler sends me letters that say really offensive things about Mr Clifton and I remind myself to ask him what that's all about . The bell rings signaling the end of the period so we leave the class but I am stopped by Mr Clifton .
"I'll see you at break ?" He asks .
"Yes Mr A ." I smile leaving the class .
"My chariot awaits me ." I say jumping on Tyler's back .
"Your chariot wants you to be careful though !" He whisper shouts .
"Okay , you'll be with me so it's alright ." I whisper in his ear .
"I don't want you there Amelia ." He says walking up the stairs .
"Why is it such a big deal Tyler ? I can handle myself except for when I have to go up the stairs but that's pretty much it ." I sigh .
"Amelia I'm trying to be serious ." He chuckles .
"He has a reputation for liking school girls , I don't want you there okay ?" He asks placing me down .
"Okay , whenever I'm around him you'll be there . Thanks bestie ." I smile kissing him on the cheek .
I walk into the class taking a seat in my chair where as Tyler comes into the class talking to a girl I've seen around school . He smiles and looks at her as if she means the world to him . It kind of makes me annoyed because I'm used to him giving me attention more than everyone around . The sight makes me angry so I just glare at my pencil case which is on the desk .
"What's up ? You look like you could kill an animal ." Freya says next to me .
"Well Hello to you too Freya ." I say not looking at her .
"Don't worry , Cassandra and Tyler ended things about two years ago ." She says and I turn to look at her .
"And she's dating some girl in the school , I don't know her name ." She folds her arms .
"So she's your type too huh ?" I smirk .
"Exactly , and he's your type . That T tattoo on you isn't helping anything ." She smiles .
"What do you mean ?" I ask in confusion .
"That's something you have to figure out on your own ." She says listening to the teacher speaking in front .
For the rest of the period we sit in silence while I contemplate Freya's words . The bell rings and I leave with Tyler behind me , we don't sit together in History but that doesn't affect me . I guess . Well that's what I tell myself .
"What's up ?" Tyler says walking with me down the stairs .
"Nothing ." I smile but everything is wrong .
"Come on , no secrets Miss Johnson ." He says taking his hand into mine .
"There's nothing Mr Jones . Now let's go finish this peanut butter and jam sandwich my mom made me so that I can take my pills ." I say walking into Mr C's the class .
"Oh yes , but isn't it peanut butter and jelly ?" He asks taking a seat .
"Not where I'm from . In South Africa jelly is its own thing ." I laugh taking out my sandwich .
"Well I've got a burger and fries , wanna swap ? I feel like my mom doesn't understand these things ." He chuckles giving me his lunch packet .
"Uhm I had the same thing for breakfast so I guess so ." I shift my foil to him .
"Thank you ." He smiles .
"You liar !" He shouts .
"What did I do ?" I laugh .
"You said that you had peanut butter and jelly ,what conspiracy is this ?" He opens the sandwich and I see toasted cheese with bacon .
"Oh damn ! My mom makes the best toasted cheese with bacon . Can I have it back ?" I ask laughing .
"Mmhhh this is good and it's still warm ." He sighs taking another bite .
"You're the devil himself ." I sigh taking a bite out of his burger .
"I know darling ." He smiles and I choke on my food .
"Amelia , Mr Jones ." Mr C says entering his class .
"Hey Mr C ." I smile waving slightly at him .
"Hey ! What did I say about the whole Mr C thing ? It's Andrew , Amelia . You're making me feel old ." He chuckles .
"That's prolly cause you are old ." Tyler mumbles and I hit him lightly on his shoulder .
"Just stating facts ." He groans taking a bite of his food .
"So Amelia , where are you from ?" Mr C asks taking a seat on the table next to me .
"I'm from South Africa . I've actually been living here for 11 years now , it's just that this heart condition wasn't exactly something I should go to school with ." I sigh taking a bite of the burger .
"That's very interesting , I've got a friend who lives in Cape Town . It's a very nice country ." Andrew says .
"Yeah , But my parents thought that change was the way to do these things ." I shrug .
Tyler's chair scrapes the floor and I look up to see him leaving the class .
"Tyler ! Where are you going ?" I call out .
"I'm going for a smoke ." He says walking angrily out of the class .
"Was it something I said ?" Andrew asks .
"No , it's probably something else . Can I go after him ?" I ask already standing up taking my stuff and Tyler's stuff .
"Sure ." He smiles .
I walk out of the class walking to the back of the school to see Tyler dragging his cigarette . I walk over to him giving him his lunch . He throws the cigarette on the floor stepping on it , he however gives me a death look .
"Do you not see what he's doing Amelia ?" He asks grabbing his hair .
"Tyler , like I said . It's alright ." I sigh .
I step forward giving him a hug which his body responds to by becoming rigid . He ends up hugging me back and I inhale his musky scent along with the smell of the cigarette he just smoked . I felt comfortable in his arms .
