Wrapped Around Your Finger

Chapter 19: School or No School?

Ana's POV

I got to practice before all of the other girls so I decided to stretch out for a bit. I could just feel the biggest smile on my face and I hoped to god that none of the girls would notice. "Ooo Ana what's got you all happy? Does it have something to do with Luke? Is your hot friend Michael single yet? I saw him holding hands with that weird girl Sam." Krystal said and I could feel on of my eyebrows twitched. She had to ruin the best morning I was having. I did not like bringing up Luke to anyone let alone her. Also Michael was dating Sam and she was a nice girl who had been through a lot. I was not about to let Krystal make fun of her, she already had enough from mean jocks in her lifetime. "Okay girls since your teammate Krystal feels the need to gossip rather than focus on her stretching I think today is a good day for some more conditioning. Besides we don't want to be out of shape for our first game do we?" I asked the team as I heard a lot of groaning go on. Trust me I was really sore from the previous conditioning day, but I wasn't about to let my team get distracted. I lead the team across our morning route and then by the time I knew it we were done with practice. "I can't believe we spent the whole time running. Krystal next time keep your mouth shut." I snickered as I showered then got dressed for the day. I slipped on some skinny jeans with my favorite Mayday Parade shirt, and my galaxy Vans. I grabbed my backpack and was surprised when I found Luke waiting for me outside of the locker room. "Hey." He said smiling. "Hey yourself." I told him back with a huge smile. I stared into his eyes for what seemed for awhile until Justin, the Varsity Quarterback, had to ruin the perfect morning. "Hey Hemmings, what are you doing talking to my girl?" I rolled my eyes. Justin had this thing where he would call everyone by their last name and to my dismay, the illusion that I was some possession of his. Now, I would say I'm a nice person, but Justin just annoyed the fuck out of me. I gave him a fake smile. "I am not your girl Justin. Just because we were voted the school's top athletes last year doesn't make us the perfect couple. Now if you'd excuse me, Luke and I have a class to get to." I told him as I grabbed Luke's hand and dragged him out of the athletic hall. I could feel myself blush. We started to approach my locker and I had found that Michael was nowhere near it, which was strange. I hope he was okay and made a mental note to text him as soon as I got out of Calculus. I had no idea when I got so bold when it came to things like this. Luke and I walked to my locker in slience until I let go of his hand. "I am so sorry about him. He is delusional." I told him as I tried to laugh it off and I saw him try to do the same. I grabbed my Calculus book then I looked up at him. "So do we need to go to your locker to grab your book?" He shook his head, "Nah I keep mine in my Mom's room. I guess it's just a perk of being in her class." I pushed him playfully. "Lucky, this book can get heavy." I joked then he looked at me as he took my book from my hands. "Hey Luke! My book! I can carry it thank you very much! I'm a tough girl!" He gives me a smile. "I know, but really I don't mind." Before I could even respond he started to walk towards his Mom's classroom. "Ughh you are so frustrating sometimes." I complain as I walk next to him. "I know, but you get use to it." He tells me as we enter the classroom together. I could see Mrs. Hemmings give us a look as if she liked the fact that we had been hanging out a lot recently and that maybe she knew something that I didn't know. I took my seat and Luke handed me my book back before he went to go and grab his.

Sam's POV

I woke up snuggled up agaisnt a warm and softly breathing boy. "Goodmorning fluffball." I said softly as I poked his nose. He groaned without opening his eys and pulled me closer to him. "No..." he moaned and I giggled. I reach around him and took my phone from the side table. "Fuck...We definitly slept in today." I grumped leaning back into his arms. He abruptly sat up. "What? What time is it?" He took my phone and groaned. "Fuck!" He laid back and closed his eyes. "You know we could just skip... I mean we are already late you know." He gave me a look then smiled. "Alright Ana would kill me if she found out." I punched the air in victory. "Yes! And she'll live." I jumped up out of bed and grabbed a pair of skinny jeans off the floor and a lacey tank from my closet. I started to walk out of my room. "Where are you going?" Michael whined from my bed. I crinkled my nose and scowled. "You already got a cuddle no free peep show." He giggled and I walked out and into the bathroom. I quickly changed and respiked my hair. I applied a quick layer of make up and returned to my room. "I always thought girls took forever getting dressed." Michael said puzzled. "Only if they care." I teased. His face fell and I laughed. "Hey only kidding. I care." I kissed his cheek and he beamed. I slipped on a pair of socks and my vans. "Let's go!" I grabbed his hand and pulled him from my bed. "Where are we going?" He laughed as I grabbed my purse and keys. "Breakfast." I grabbed my belly as it grumbled and we both laughed loudly. "Perfect I'm starving." He replied as we walked to my car. "Hold up." He told me as he walked to his car and grabbed a leather jacket and an envelope. "Really Michael it's like a hundred degrees..." I groaned. "But it's cool!" I laughed and he threw the jacket in the backseat. We buckled and he handed me the envelope. "What's this?" I asked. "Tickets. For the concert. I'm terrible at loosing things so could you hold on to them?" I laughed and put them in my glove box. "I'm bad at that too. I once lost my passport..." I told him. "Oh my god me too!" He said excitedly and we both laughed. "I'll give them to Luke later to hold for me. He keeps all my stuff safe. My birth certificate, my passport, my social security card. He even knows my social by heart. If I didn't fully trust him he could steal my identity!" We both laughed and I drove us to Ihop. It was already such a great morning, Ihop could only make it better. "As ironic as it is I never get pancakes here..." I told Michael as we looked over the menu. "Really? Please tell me you're not one of those weirdos who orders a steak for breakfast..." he glanced at me over his menu. I laughed really loud and people looked at us. "Sorry..." he laughed too and shook his head. "It's awesome to know there's someone just as forgetful, loud awesome funny as me out there." I blushed awesomendnd looked at my menu. I ended up getting a ham and cheese omlete. Michael got pancakes, waffles, eggs, sausage, bacon and hasbrowns. "Hungry are we?" I teased and he smiled. "Always." I giggled. We talked about school and our friends. How Calum and Michael taught Ana guitar and how Luke taught me to sing. How Ana taught Michael some soccer moves and I taught Luke some dance moves. "You dance?" He asked. "Thirteen years." I replied before taking a huge bite of omlete. "Maybe you can teach me?" He asked and I smiled. "Sure!" We just talked and talked all during breakfast. "Where to now?" He asked me as we left. "I have a place I want to show you." I told him with a sly smile. "Where?" He asked hesitantly. "It's a surprise. Consider this a kidnapping!" I laughed as I pulled out of the parking lot. "Well at least I have a cute kidnapper..."
