I fiddled with my l lock and it finally opened. I grabbed my books and walked down to class with..... Wait! I don't even know her name. "What's your name, by the way?" I asked. She laughed, "Amanda." I smiled at that. Once we walked into the class, everybody glared at me. "What's their problem?" I murmured to Amanda. She laughed, "They're like that to every new person." "How do you know?" I asked, with confusion on my face. "I'm a new student, too," she replied. "Oh," and we sat in the back corner next to each other.
After babbling for 2 minutes with Amanda, a teacher came in. She looked strict. But, surprisingly she was as sweet as a lamb. Like, seriously, she could be "baaing" right now..... Anyway, after class we headed to the lunchroom. We were heading towards the lunchroom doors, until someone yelled out my name.
"Victoria!" Jake yelled. I stopped in my tracks, frozen. Minutes later I speak. "What. are. you. doing. here?" I ask word by word, gritting my teeth. He smiles, "I couldn't miss the first day of school!" I sigh. This is going to be difficult. Amanda told me she would find us a seat and left, so it was just Jake and me. The look on Jake's face turned serious. "We need to talk," he says with a look of determination on his face.
I sighed and took his hand. I led him out the front doors to a big maple tree. I sat down next to the humongous tree and took a deep breath. There was a long silence between us. Not an awkward one, a thoughtful one. Until Jake broke it. "Why are you so scared to sing in front of me?" I first looked at my feet, then to him and replied, "I.... just can't..... I just can't explain it............not yet.." I whispered the last part more to myself. "Well, just know that I'll be there to listen when you are ready." See? that's what makes him so loveable, he never forces on you.
He smiles and reaches his hand out for me, "Now enough with the drama. Let's not keep your friend waiting." I smiled and took his hand. As we walked back inside, we didn't let go of each others' hands. It felt nice. Just imagine your hand captivated in a nice and warm hand. I just wish I could be in his arms..... Wait, am I falling in love with him again? I think I am.
I hope you like the random songs that I pIay that rarely relate to the chapter. I know it says this has action too. But don't worry, it'll be soon ;)
