Chapter 49
"Jade hurry up, we're going to be late!" I have been calling out to him for the past five minutes but he is still not down and we are surely going to be late for the cluster meeting. I call out again when I hear his footsteps thumping on the stairs.
"I am here. I am here, let's go." He calls out wrapping his wristwatch and then looks at me with a cheeky smile. We start moving when he stops and I look back to him to see him looking at my feet. One thing I forgot to mention, I am bare feet, Charlott is getting my footwear from home before picking Ivy up.
"What?" I bring Jade out of his trance and he looks up at me and then back at my feet.
"You are barefoot." I roll my eyes and look at him with a bored expression.
"Wow, I would have never noticed, thank you." I say but he is still unconvinced and looks at me with a puzzled expression. "Jade it's just downstairs and Charlott is bringing my footwear it's alright." I know what's coming next...
"I'll carry you down then." I knew he would say this but I don't want unnecessary staring, people thinking that my boyfriend has to carry me everywhere, and especially not my first expression for all the outsiders. Before I could think about what, I am doing I run out of the door. I am practically running and it takes Jade a second to move, not expecting me to run which I can say I climbed the lift when Jade was just going to enter but the door just closed at the right time making me sigh.
I get out of the door and started walking towards the hall which catches me off guard when I see unfamiliar people already filling the places. I realized again I am barefoot and I was unintendedly trying to move some stares up to me but thankful that it's still less than Jade carrying me while wearing his sweatshirt. There are a lot of couples from the upper-class society present, including mine Ivy's and Charlott's parents. Excluding them there are around 350 to 400 teenagers are present which I assume are the participants.
My eyes directly go towards Ivy and Charlott who are flying their hands up in the air making me chuckle and move towards them. I have a bag in my hand that contains my dress from last night and lunch that Jade made me with made me kind of emotional. On the other hand, is my sipper with coffee which again Jade made.
I can feel the stares crawling up my skin including both good and bad but I try making my way to my friends quietly as soon as possible. When I finally climb the third stair, I raise my head and look at Charlott giving everybody a hard glare and Ivy busy taking my shoes off.
"What are you all looking at? Never seen a pretty girl!?" Charlott's voice booms in the big hall making everybody look in directions and for our parents to laugh and her dad to shake his head and smile at his daughter's dominant nature. Charlott doesn't have a mother, it's just she and her dad, and every time I look at Mr. Homes his eyes are filled with pride and love for her daughter.
