Chapter Twenty-One

   I was running late. My bed felt sweeter than ever that morning after I was with Dane and I really didn't want to get up for school. I was only meant to stay in bed for an extra five minutes but that turned into ten then twenty then thirty and then I was rushing to get into the shower and then fumbling around to find my school uniform. Skirt, tights, shirt, cardigan but no tie. Why was it always my tie that went missing?! I searched everywhere, if I didn't find it I'd get another detention for missing uniform and that would result in a phone call to my mum because it would be my second detention in a week. It was just as I was on my hands and knees looking under my bed for my tie that the doorbell rang. Five, quick short rings. Aaliyah. I sighed then quickly rushed down the stairs to open the door for her but it wasn't just Aaliyah, Dane was there with her. 

   "Why aren't you ready yet?" Aaliyah asked walking into my kitchen before I could even say anything.

   "I don't understand what's going on." I said to Dane ask we walked off.

   "I came to get you and saw her on the way." He explained pushing away a strand of my messy, frizzy hair. The day before I had tried a twist-out and it actually looked nice, now it just looked a mess. "Good morning anyways."

   "Morning." I replied nodding. Dane lifted my chin then kissed me softly on the lips. "I need to get ready!" I giggled once he refused to let me go.

   "Oversleep?" He asked with a mischievous grin. Oh God, he must've felt so smug.

   "Not exactly."

   "Alex man hurry up we're gonna be late!" Aaliyah shouted from my kitchen with her mouth full. She was eating my croissants, she always ate my croissants.

   "I gotta get ready now, seriously."

   "Without your tie?" Dane asked pulling my tie out of his pocket.

   "Why do you have it?!"

   "I couldn't exactly see what I was picking up last night Alexandria." He replied still grinning at me. I scoffed then took my tie off him and went back upstairs. I packed my bag and then brushed up my hair and tied it up in a cute curly bun. When I rushed back downstairs Aaliyah was in my fridge and Dane was sitting at the table waiting for me. They weren't talking and it was so awkward that I almost felt like throwing up. I caught Aaliyah roll her eyes at Dane when he asked if I was ready but he just smiled back at her so I let it slide. I obviously wasn't the only person who was in a good mood. However, Dane's smile really wasn't genuine and as soon as she left us he whispered into my ear;

   "Maybe you shouldn't have forgiven her so easy."

 "Alex you came!" Cale screamed over the booming music running over to me and embracing me in a hug that was way too tight. It was somewhere around nine in the evening and I had just arrived at Cale's house for his party with Aaliyah and Shay. Cale pressed his lips onto my cheek then grinned at me. He was waved. Probably not fully, but halfway there.

   "Get off me 'C." I said laughing Cale let go off me then greeted Shay and Aaliyah in a similar way. Dane who I hadn't noticed till that point signaled for me to come over. He had arrived before us and had texted me that he was waiting for me. Surprisingly his black apparel was not on him and that day he wore white and blue.
