I can't last any longer in this car just be being silent, I turned off the music and looked at Mason. "Are you staying for basketball practice?" someone had to start talking one way or another. "No, there won't be practice today you know that. We have practice the same day now can I get back to my music?" So now I know he was mad at me. We both had practice Wednesday and Friday, obviously I knew but there was something that needed to be done.
Looking outside the window, wondering and thinking back what it was I had done. I hated thinking about this because every bad thing I regretted they came flashing back. It was 8:28 and we arrived to school pulling his car into one of the parking spaces beside the building. Getting out the car I looked around for our group of friends I turned to the right and they were by the tree. I noticed Mason looking for someone and when I saw him walk away I grabbed his arm
"um Mas are you okay"
"Why wouldn't I be "
"I just wanted to say that what I said this morning I didn't mean that and you know that"
"Yeah ok I have to go"
And he yanked his arm away wow. I watched him leave and noticed he was walking towards Holly, his girlfriend. She has medium light brown hair, dark blue jeans with a tight black shirt. He would usually walk with me with our friends but I guess he wasn't in the mood. "Hey guys." trying to sound casual "Hi Julie" said Emily "Where's Mason?" Adam asked "He headed toward Holly" acting like it was an everyday thing "Awww does Jul already miss him?" Said Matthew as he chuckled pushing me with his shoulder "Shut up its not like I can't last a day without him" Hitting him back. " Give her a break she has other cool friends too like us." Alena said. I couldn't handle my stare and looked to Mason direction he looked so normal like nothing had happened.
Focusing my attention back to what they were saying. "where's Nick" I asked "He has Morning detention " Andrew said " Really what did he do? ""Too many tardy late marks." The thought of Nick being in detention by himself because of being late to classes is something to remember he's always getting in trouble for no reason.
"so are we still up to coming to my house tonight to plan Christmas break?" Alena said " Obviously I've been waiting to talk about it all week" Emily said clapping her hands in a exciting way. We all motioned our heads up and down to indicate that it was an obvious yes. The bell ringed for us to go to class "see you in lunch" Alena came along to get my stuff out of my locker. "Hurry up J" whats everyone's problem wanting for me to hurry let me be me. I started moving hands slower and slower. "Are you really doing this" She said with a smile on her face I looked to her direction moving my head slowly. She was wearing a gray sweater that said "Be happy for yourself" with gray jeans and blue shoes. Her beautiful long wavy black hair with a side braid and brown light eyes. "You really creeping me out come on lets go" she said grabbing my arm. We both had first period together and it was amusing how much she loved math class.
Dazing out of what the teacher was teaching because I was obviously not understanding this. I started thinking of Christmas week and how it might turn out to be. " Ms.Abrams can you answer the question?"
"Um" yes please call me at the worst moment anytime. I turned my eyes right and left looking at what we were doing. I looked at Alena and I could tell she was trying to give me the answer but I quickly said no so she wouldn't get in trouble. " Its 8 times 5 " I heard someone say behind me " Its 40 I yelled back"
It seemed she was going easy on me because she continued on with class. I turned around and it was Josh who gave me the answer. I didn't talk to him much but he was brilliant he always had the answers for everything and I knew him because he played basketball with Mason.
The bell ringed and I went towards Alena "How did you come up with the answer huh?"
"with my brain duhh" I said with a casual face. "Mhm sure I could tell that you were very much confused when I looked at you" I looked at her and then we started laughing " ok I can't lie to you Josh gave me the answer "
"Josh ?? Josh from the basketball team? " she said while walking towards her locker. " umm who else "
"Ok smart ass. You know who he reminds me of that is cute ?" I turned my head toward her I was surprised. " You think someone's cute ?" my mouth wide open it was hard for a guy to meet her expectations only guys she called cute were the ones she saw on tv but never at school. "Well he's nice and i feel like I I can just tell him anything just like I can with you guys"
"Is it one of the guys from the group?"
"No are you crazy? no ew no I mean yea they're nice but no not them it's Jake "
"Alena...I don't see how Josh can remind you of Jake"
"well the J from the beginning of their names"
"Oh yea you're right, they can be twins now that you say that. So ? How does it feel to like someone from school ?" I said with a fake imaginary microphone in my hand. "Its very weird and uncontrollable but you feel what you feel right" She said taking the imaginary microphone and as if she was preaching. "are you telling the group?"
" Definitely Emily but the guys might make fun of it and make it obvious"
" Oh come on it won't be intended we're all in this together"
"yes because we're all trying to date him together, but I'll tell them see yah later " she said with a fake sad face. Shortly after the bell ranged I stepped into class just in time and then Mason came running in with Matthew. "Tardy guys" Mr.Lark said "NOO we will make it in time tomorrow and forever it won't happen again" Matthew said. " Don't make promises you can't keep Matthew please go sit down. You also Mr.Mellark"
" Dramatic much ? " I said
"At least he's just playing around " Mason said " He knows when to stop you know " he continued without giving me a look or anything. "Um okay " I said turning around Matthew sat next to me so he looked at my direction and motion his head as saying ' what happen ' I mouthed back "I'll tell you later." Class seemed to go pretty slow which was a terrible thing. It was awkward just sitting in front of Mason knowing he has something against me today.
I thought about it for awhile maybe it's because I threw water at him unexpected. Although I got thrown into the pool plus I do something like that everyday so its impossible. 'Maybe he's tired of it ' my subconscious said 'Maybe he just is tired of being friends with you. It happens I mean there's millions of people out there. ' I shook the thought away no he's not like that. The bell finally ringed and Mason walked away to the halls. "So what's up? " Matthew said.
"Um aren't you going to walk with Mason ? "
" No I have next period with him and Im pretty sure we can live without each other for a few minutes. Anyways I'm trying to talk to you so tell me your emotions "
"Ok well first of all I wouldn't straight up just tell my emotions just because someone tells me to but just once. Um well... I kind of told Mason he was a worthless best friend but I didn't think he would take it hard I mean you guys tell each other worse things "
"Well let me tell you some Jul he might of thought you were playing at first but guys can be really unsure sometimes. Somehow or something you said hit him some kind of way. Just talk to him he's an open book with you find out what it is but if you need anything I'm here ok you know that. Just do you." He said giving me a hug.
"Yeah , youre right thank you Matt hurry up dude go run before you get another tardy and they bench you in your games again. " I said punching his shoulder. "Your right ok see you at lunch "
Next two periods passed by quick and I was glad lunch was here. I started walking toward the table we used outside. I saw Mason heading that way I wanted to go catch up with him but saw him tell guys something and walk toward the cars. I hurried toward where Nick, Andrew and Matthew were " Hey um where is Mason going? " I asked. " oh Holly and him are going to get some food from outside" Andrew said
" Yea and guess what? They're not even bringing some to us " Nick said while pretending to cry. I felt this sharp pain in my chest because every time they went out he would ask me if I wanted anything. I rushed over to the bathroom went to the last stall and sinked down. Gosh I'm so dumb.
