We pulled up to the school and I had already missed first period and half of second all because Cam wanted to get something to eat and take a shower. To be honest he's not a bad guy. I know that sounds hypocritical but he is actually pretty nice. That's why now I can't see him doing the thing that he did to me.
He even offered to pay for my food at Dunkin but I didn't want him to. I just didn't think it was right. He's probably just trying to make up for what he did but I didn't want him to spend money on me.
I sat in the car waiting until second period was over, but it would be over in about 30 minutes. I can't wait in the car for 30 minutes.
"I'm gonna need you to write me a note." I finally said
He held out his hand so I reached into my bag and got a piece of paper and a pen. He started writing my note then I forgot he has to forge my dads signature. It's simple.
"Don't sign your name. Can you forge my dads signature please?" I asked
"What is it? Do you have a piece of paper that has his signature on it?"
I dug through my bag for something. I knew I wasn't going to find anything because my dad never did anything for me. Luckily in the bottom of my bag I found a note he had signed a while back. I gave it to Cam and he attempted to copy it.
"I tried." He laughed
I forced a smile then unbuckled my seatbelt. I sighed then opened the car door. I got out and really regretted it. School sucks.
"Loren?" Cam called. I didn't look back but I could only imagine seeing him rolling the window down and looking at me. Just drive away.
"Loren." He said again. This time I turned around.
"Yes?" I asked walking back to the car
"What are you doing later on today?" He asked
"I'm going home." I answered honestly not trying to sound rude.
"Do you want to do something? We could go get something to eat or we could -"
" I'll text you later. I gotta go." I said turning back around and walking into the building. What does he think this is? He can't just basically ask me out on a date after what he did. I'm not going to drop it either. That's just so wrong.
I went to the attendance office and gave them the note. She gave me a pass and I went to English. Okay. Breathe. I'll be okay.
I approached the door and took a deep breath. I opened the door and Mr. Fiege was in the middle of talking. I put the pass on his desk then took a seat. Not once did I look back at Matt. I don't even know if he's here or not because I didn't bother.
The teacher started talking about how the project was due tomorrow. I tuned him out. The only part that got my attention was 'get together with your partners.'
I looked around the room for Stephanie. Luckily she was here. I got up walking over to her. She looked confused.
"Hi?" She questionably greeted me
"Hi, Mr. Fiege switched my partner so I'm working with you now." I explained
"Oh well hello. I did the project over the weekend so you don't have to do anything." She told me
What a great partner she is. I didn't even have to put any effort into this project.
"Alright so what do I do?" She shrugged. I awkwardly nodded my head. I sat down in the desk next to her and took my phone out. I was scrolling through Instagram until I heard my voice coming from the back of the room.
I turned around to see Jack holding what looked like Matt's phone in his hand. I frowned not knowing why my voice is on his phone.
"MATT ! You didn't answer your phone kid.. Anyways you suck butthole. Bye." I giggled over the phone
Oh my god. When did I send that? I was so embarrassed. This isn't happening. Jack was in the back and Matt was trying to get his phone back from Jack. I rolled my eyes and got up from the desk.
Now my embarrassment disappeared. I'm pissed. Why would he even do that? Can't they do something else than to try and embarrass me? This is the second time in a freaking week.
I started walking over to where they were and I stood in front of them. I took a deep breath and let it all out.
"I don't know what your problem is but both of you need to leave me alone. I was more of a friend to you than anyone in this damn school. The fact that you are still trying to make me the laughing stock of the school really concerns me. Why do you still talk about me? Do you still have a crush on me?" I looked at Matt who had a smug grin on his face. Then Jack who looked like he didn't give two shits what was coming out of my mouth. "Both of you are fucking immature and I hate you both." Was the last thing I said before walking away.
I felt good after that. The teacher gave me a dirty look after that, but I ignored him. My phone started buzzing so I looked at it and it was from Matt of course it was.
M- I'm coming to your house after school, I don't give a fuck what you say I'm coming. We need to talk this is getting out of hand.
L- uhm no? I don't want to talk to you. It's very clear that you have a problem with me.
I looked back to where he was sitting just to see if it was really him typing and it was. I understand why he wants to talk to me, I just don't want to. A lot has happened in just a week and I am getting sick and tired of it.
M- I don't care. I'm coming over we need to talk.
L- we can talk right now if you want to talk that bad.
M- ask to go to the bathroom.
L- fine
I raised my hand waiting for Mr. Fiege to look at me. He put his phone down then looked up at me.
"Yes Loren?" He asked annoyed.
"Can I go to the bathroom?"
"Take the pass on your way out."
I nodded then got up from the desk. I grabbed the pass off of Mr. Fiege's desk then walked out. I waited in the hallway for Matt to come out.
I was growing impatient then he walked out. He started speed walking towards me so I started backing up. He's gonna hit me.
He came closer and pulled me in the waist and kissed me. My eyes widened from shock. Then again I liked it. I didn't mind kissing him this time. I don't know why.
I closed my eyes because I actually enjoyed it. The kiss was slow and passionate. I felt his hands trail up to my back and it sent chills up and down my spine. He pulled away leaving me wanting more.
"You can't tell me you didn't like that." He grinned
I did, but that doesn't mean I'm going to admit it. I just looked away from him and he put his hand on my cheek facing me towards him again.
"Loren please listen to me. I am sorry for overreacting. I am sorry if I made you angry and I'm just sorry for everything I did. I don't want you to hate me. Yes I do still like you and it's bothering me that every time we speak to each other we end up arguing." He sounded sincere. I should give him a chance, after all I was being a bitch too.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been so harsh. You are my friend and I don't want a stupid argument to ruin it all. Can we start over?" I asked
He smiled. He held out his hand and I put mine in his.
"Hi my name is Matt. What's your name?"
"I'm Loren. Nice to meet you Matt." I laughed.
He pulled me in for a hug and he smelled amazing. I didn't want to let go. When I did he began to walk back to class, but turned and looked at me again.
"I'm still coming over later." He winked
Yeah? Well so is Cam.
