the next day i woke up and got ready. i couldn't wait to see tom again, he was like the highlight of my day.i hop in the car with my mum and we start to drive to school.
i made my way into school and to class, everyone is already there including tom. he smiled at me and i smiled as well then went to go and sit next to him.
"right everyone welcome back, today we will be talking about what we would like to be when we're older, discuss it with your peers and when i'm back you'll tell everyone what your dream career is or what you're planning to be when you're older. i'll be back, i'm just going to talk to the head about something." the teacher said and quickly got up from her chair and walked out.
the class erupted with talking and noise. i turned to tom.
"you first?" he asked.
"okay um this is embarrassing but i don't really know what i want to be." i smiled crookedly.
"it's okay harriet you'll find out sooner or later don't worry." he smiled.
"thank you tom, really." i said.
"no worries." he winked at me.
"you now." i winked back.
"okay i'm sure you already know but i'd love to be an actor.. i always have." he smiled while looking down. "it'll never happen though." he said with a sad smile.
"you don't know that, i believe in you Tommie boy." i winked.
"since when did you start calling me that." he laughed. "weirdo."
"i am not a weirdo, you're the weirdo, acting kid." i laughed loudly.
he blushed of embarrassment and stared at me.
"what?"
"oh nothing." he quickly looked away.
"AW weirdo has a little crush on harriettt." a voice said.
i looked behind tom and Isabelle is there.
tom rolled his eyes. "i do not have a crush on harriet she's a friend."
i frowned a little but didn't know why.
"yeah just a friend, shut up isabelle no one likes you." i said.
"oh yeah?" she sneered. "protecting your boyfriend are ya?" she walked towards me.
tom got up and stood in front of me "do. not. touch. her." he sneered. i blushed and gave tom a thankful smile
just then the teacher walked back in and isabelle scurried back to her desk. i sat back down and so did tom.
"thank you tommie." i winked and smiled.
he grinned. "of course harri." he grinned even more as he saw me go red.
"do NOT call me that." i fake glared at him.
he put his hands up in a almost surrender. "sooorryyyy" he said sarcastically.
i scoffed and turned my attention to the teacher.
"stop flirting harriet and tom." the teacher glared at us as we both blushed.
"i am no-" but before i could finish the teacher spoke again.
"so! Isabelle, what do you want to be when you're older?" the teacher said turning to her.
"a model." she said confidently.
i heard a scoff. it was tom. "as if" he whispered. thankfully no one heard it.
i grinned.
"very well, good choice Isabelle." the teacher smiled and turned to me. "and you?"
"i don't know what i want to be yet." i said quietly.
"come on you must!" she said.
"i don't." i glared at her. i said i don't why this idiot carrying on.
"disappointing." she tilted her head and then looked at tom.
"you must?" she said.
tom nodded, a little shy. "i- i want to be a actor."
the teacher scoffed and the class erupted with laughter. "good look with that Tomas." she said with a sneer in her voice.
"how dare they!?!" i thought.
tom glared at the table like he wanted to say something but refrained from it.
class went on and the teacher asked everyone their dream jobs and class was already over. we both got up and headed to the door.

break
it's break already and me and tom both went outside to talk. before we could reach the benches, 2 older guys about a year or 2 older stood in front of tom.
"where do you think your going little weirdo? got yourself a pathetic girlfriend?" they sneered down at tom.
it was my turn. i stood in front of tom. "leave. him. alone. or else." i glared at both of them. "pick on someone your own size."
they both erupted in laughter. tom grabbed my hand and pulled me with him. we headed back inside and to our form classroom. no one was in there and tom dragged me to the desks. "what are you doing?!" i whisper shouted.
"i returned the favour don't be ungrateful!" i said angrily.
"im not but they will bully you! and i cant handle that! it's all my fault." he said sadly.
hi hand was leaning on the desk. i took it and held it in my hand. "it's not your fault."
he looked up then looked back at his hand and smiled a little.
"really?"
"yes, really." i squeezed his hand lightly then dropped it. "come on class is about to start."
we both walked out and headed to maths class. no one was there yet thankfully.
i sat down, tom followed.
then everyone all came rushing in loudly and sat down waiting for the teacher to arrive.
—————————————————————————
school finished soon enough. i said goodbye to tom.
"goodbye harriet." as i was about to walk about he grabbed my hand and pulled me back towards him.
it was a little too hard and our faces was inches away from each other.
i quickly stepped back.
"i- uh sorry i didn't mean to, but i was wondering if you'd like to come over to my house sometime, here's my parents number." he said and handed me a piece of paper that he took out of his pocket.
i took it from him. "i'd love to." i smiled. "i'll see you around." i said.
"see you." he grinned and walked away. i went the opposite direction and headed to my mums car.
"how was it?" she asked. "i see you've made a new friend." she winked.
"ugh muummmm. he's just a friend! nothing more."
"i see the way you look at him." she said in a way that said as a matter of fact and wiggled her eyebrows at me."
"no."
"whateverrrrr" she grinned and stared driving.
