Unquestionable love

Chapter 5

It was the next morning, a brand new day. I wonder if Ross is okay now. I get out of bed, stretching a bit then walk in my connected bathroom and take a quick shower.
. . .

I walk downstairs to not see Ross cooking breakfast. Well I better get going to school. I'll just grab something from Tim's maybe. I grab my keys and was about to walk out till someone pulled me back by my wrist. I turn around to see Ross.
"Where do you think you're going princess?"
"To school"
"Not by yourself, you're not" he says calmly.
"But--"
"I'm your protector, I have to go where ever you go"
"Even the bathroom?" I joke.
"Ha ha ha princess" he says not impressed.
"Well let's go then"
"What about breakfast?"
"We'll get it at Tim's, now let's go!" I instruct.
"Alright alright! Jeez lady!"
We walk out of the house, and get in my car peeling out of the driveway.

. . .

I park the car in the school parking lot and get out, Ross does too.
"Um... what are you doing?"
"My job"
"You're go to school?"
He laughs. "Yeah right!"
"Then what are you--"
There's that voice that always tries to break my ear drums.
"Laura!" shouts Hilary.
Oh crap! I can't let her see--
"Laura" as she taps my shoulder.
Shit! Well there isn't time for excuses now. I turn around and smack a smile on my face.
"Hey Hil"
"Omg! I have so much to tell you on what happened yester-- um... Laura, who's that?" she ask with a flirty smile on her face.
I look at Ross and he just smirks. I glare at him.
"Well I'll cya later Laura" he says before whispering in my ear. "I put my phone number in your phone so you can give me a ring when you need me" he says before walking off.
"Let's get to class Hilary"
I start walking in the school to my locker and grab my things for first period.
"Who is that hot guy?!" she ask quite loudly.
Everyone was looking at her weirdly. I just smile awkwardly and just gave her a look.
"I don't really want to talk about him right now" I reply.
"But--"

Riiiiiiing!

Saved by the bell, literately.
"Oh! That's the bell, gotta head to class!" I say before running off to class.
"Laura! This isn't over! We're not done talking about this!" she hollers.
Yeah, we'll see about that.

. . .

I've been avoiding Hilary the best I can but I did have some close calls. Anyways, it was lunch now and I decided to go out for lunch since this cafeteria food isn't gonna hold down. I grab my bag thinking I could get some homework done as well. I shut my locker and walk out of the school searching for Ross. Oh great, where could he be now? The property of the school is frickin' huge. Ugh. I was about to call him but soon felt a tap on my shoulder making me jump a bit. I turn around to see Ross.
"Where were you?" I ask as we walk to my car.
"I was at the fountain making a wish" he says so simple like it's his thing.
"Oh okay then"
"Where are we going? Don't you have lunch?" he questions.
"If you've seen the lunch then you'd be wanting to have something else too"
He smiled a bit. Not a smirk but a smile, a real one and actually..... he looked kind of cute smiling like that. His smile could almost make you melt a bit. What am I saying? Ugh, I think that muffin is messing with my head. Soon my thoughts were interrupted by the car honking, which made me jump a bit. Ross rolls down the windows and sticks his head out of the now opened window.
"Let's go! I'm hungry!" he says.
I get in the car and put my bag at the back. I put the keys in but just sit there and think a bit. Do I?.....
"Laura? You okay?" Ross ask reassuringly.
"Y-Yeah, everything's fine" I say to him.
Suddenly weight comes upon my hand that's on the stirring wheel. It was Ross's hand.
"You want to talk about it?" he asks again.
He's so sweet once you get through the 'who the hell is that stranger in my kitchen breaking my glass cups?!' stage. Maybe my dad did make a right decision.
I take a breathe. "Let's get some lunch" I say before driving out of the school parking lot.
