"Where's your boyfriend Allie?" Esther says, wiggling her eyebrows. Everyone around the table chuckles while I flush a deep red.
"He's not my boyfriend."
"Sure, sure," Nancy says unconvinced.
After our encounter in the maths classroom, my mind has been whizzing. At first I felt excited - the kind that makes you feel as if you have butterflies fluttering in your stomach. I wanted to see him, talk to him...kiss him. I waited for hours, listening at my bedroom door so I could 'accidentally' walk into him in the hallway.
However he never came home.
I started to doubt myself. Maybe it's because he feels guilty for Ezra? I mean, I am his best friend's sister. But I guess a part of me wondered...was it me?
What if I'm not pretty enough?
Smart enough?
Funny enough?
I know there's easily at least 200 other girls just in our school that would easily want to take my place, so maybe he changed his mind?
As each day passed, I felt more and more uncertain. Surely he wouldn't do this. Leaving me hanging, desperate and pathetic.
No.
I know him.
That's not like Levi. He'd be upfront, decisive...no matter my feelings. But I guess that thought's unsettling too. I mean he's been gone for 3 days straight - he didn't turn up at lunch, school or even my house. It's like he's walked off the face of the earth.
What if something happened to him?
What if he's dead in a ditch somewhere and I'm here tucking into a fucking caesar salad.
Standing up from my seat, I decide to go try to find him - I mean, like how many places can this boy be?
"Sorry guys, I have to go - potential boyfriend to talk to," I knew they'd not ask questions if I said I was talking to Levi. They nod and wink...just like I thought.
I leave my half eaten food on the table and down the last of my water. 'Less calories, less fat?' I guess this is just a bonus for finding Levi.
Plus I read on instagram that water is great for getting a higher metabolism.
As i'm running out of the school car park, I flip out my phone from my blazer pocket - screen now finally fixed - and tap the screen a few times :
I'm coming to find u : Allie
