Chapter 15 - back to school

hope you like it :) sorry it has been so long i'm going to try and get back into a routine i love you all <3

my mom woke us up at 10 and said it was time for pete to head home.

"you can explain this all to me later." she whispered in my ear
i groaned and said i would walk him home.
when we got to his house i gave him a massive hug.
"do you wanna come in? just for a little bit."
i smiled and nodded, we creeped up the stairs and into his room
"we'll just lie down for a bit." i said relaxing onto pete's bed. he squeezed in next to me and wrapped me in his arms. without realising i soon drifted into a deep sleep.

"y/n?.... Pete?"

i felt someone shaking me awake and Pete's  arm land on my waist.
i groaned and rolled over. but i rolled off the bed and fell hard on my face. i heard Pete mumble something and looked up to see lynne looking at us concerned.

"wake up! you're going to be late for school!" she said shaking Pete awake

"school?" Pete grumbled confused. i looked over at the clock and saw that it was already 8:15
"SHIT!" i said standing up swiftly.
"school starts in 15 minutes." i said grabbing pete's arm and trying to pull him off the bed.

"i've messaged your mom she knows where you are" lynne said looking at me "and breakfast is on the table, you better hurry!"

i pulled Pete up to stand his eyes half open.
"Pete come on let's go have breakfast we can't be late on our first day."
"just five more minutes" he whispered sleepily
"noooo come on let's go" i said as he slumped on me. i wrapped my arms around his waist and squeezed him before dragging him downstairs and to the kitchen.

by the time we had finished our cereal he had started to wake up a bit more. i didn't have my uniform with me so lynne gave me some of Betsy's old clothes and her bag the top felt big but the skirt was short. Pete smiled as i adjusted my tie in the mirror.
"what?" i said turning round
"nothing" he said still smiling.
i laughed and fixed his wonky tie.

lynne smiled as we walked down the stairs like she was my own proud mom.
"you both look so sweet. let me get a picture of you on your first day" she said reaching for the camera.
"no mom please." Pete said grabbing it before she could
"we are already late"

"okay," she said "i'll drive you in"

Pete and i held hands as we sat in the back of the car he fidgeted with my fingers while looking out the window. my heart was beating fast and i couldn't stop checking how far away we were.

when we got out the car i thanked lynne and we walked onto the empty school grounds.
"are you sure there is school today." Pete asked looking around
"yeah Pete, we are just late." i said starting to walk a little faster.
we signed ourself in at the main entrance and then walked to our first class. we walked into the history class and i smiled awkwardly at the teacher.
"sorry we are late." i said
"please find a desk" replied the teacher. i could tell he already didn't like us.
i smiled awkwardly and looked over at the sea of unfamiliar faces until i saw two i recognised, mike and james. i looked over at Pete and saw his smile fade as he saw james. mike beckoned to Pete for him to sit at the desk next to mike that he had saved. i sat at the only other desk in front of pete but next to james.

when we sat down i turned to look at pete and smiled
"what is your name young lady?" i heard the teacher say from the front. i turned round to see he was looking at me.
"y/n" i said feeling everyone's eyes on me.
"please don't turn around in class. and please fix the length of that skirt."
i thought about talking back about the skirt but decided i better shouldn't since it was my first day.
"open your text books to page 118" he said as he walked over to me desk and dropped a text book and a notebook on my desk. i went to fumble in my bag for a pen when i felt someone tap my arm. i look over to my left to see james smiling and holding a pen out to me.
'thank you' i mouth before taking the pen and writing my name in both books.

as i walked out of history i heard someone walk up behind me.
"hey!" i heard a friendly voice say
i turned around to see a girl with short brown shiny hair, olive skin and big brown eyes smiling at me.
"mr keens an idiot don't listen to him."
"i won't" i said smiling at her. i saw Pete walk over and place a hand on my waist.
"hey Pete" the girl said
"hey olivia" he replied before holding my hand.
"shall we go to our next lesson?" he whispered in my ear.
i smile and look over at olivia
"what do you have now olivia?"
"i have geography" she said pointing towards a sign to the geography block.
"what do we have Pete?" i said looking up at him.
"maths." he replied no expression on his face. his eyes still staring blankly at olivia.
"i guess we should go then." Pete said coldly.
"okay yeah." olivia said starting to walk to the geography block. pete turned quickly and guided me the opposite way

"Pete why did you get so cold suddenly."
i said trying to slow down his fast pace.
"you have to be careful with that girl she will only get you in trouble." he said not looking down. he stopped in front of our maths classroom.
"you're saying i shouldn't talk to her?" i said and he paused at the door handle.
"i'm saying i want to keep you safe and she is just going to put you in danger"

i sighed and looked up at him.
"okay pete."

hope you enjoyed have a nice day, afternoon, evening or night.
