Shattered

Chapter 4.

Walking through the halls I get to my locker to see people already waiting for me there.
Sighing I run a hand through my hair, which wasn't the driest right now since I had football practice a couple classes ago, arriving at my locker I look at them.
"what do y'all want ?" I finally say to Bryan and Zach, two of my close friends, who are looking very impatient.
Zach speaks up only moments later,
"We heard your talking to Jade," he says and I can almost picture the smirk in his voice .
Quickly looking at him I see his smirk straight on his face but dropping at the second he looks behind me .

Quizzically turning around in a daze I see a familiar 5'3, dirty haired blonde with her blue eyes looking up at me and biting her bottom lip with her perfect teeth , Jade .

Clearing her throat she takes a moment to look at Bryan and Zach doing some weird hand signals meaning disgusting stuff, I'll seriously have to talk to them about treating girls with a little more respect .
Her bright blue orbs come back to me and she looks at her nails and speaks gentle ,"Did I come at a bad time or ?" She pauses looking around the, rather empty, halls.

Looking back at my doofus friends I give them a look at to say 'we'll talk about this later' and shake my head back rapidly back towards her .
"No they were just about leaving ," I sigh out giving her a big grin .
"Okay well I have to babysit my sister ," Bryan says awkwardly giving us a wink, he doesn't even have a sister, I mused trying to hold in my laugh, Jade could tell .
"I'll go with him ," Zach adds running to catch up with him causing him to trip on the carpet .
Jade and I burst out laughing after holding it in so long, I seriously thought it'd make us weak .
Through all of this Bryan turns around and laughs at the scene too .
Getting up, Zach's cheeks are already flushed as he wiped his hands on his pants and looks around, hoping no one else had saw what just occurred I presumed .

Looking back at us he sticks his tongue out like a child .
"Watch where your going Zach ! Floors are very dangerous ," I joke, still laughing I'm sure my face is red.
Jade giggles a melodic laugh that makes a smile appear instantly on my face and Zach replies ,
"Hey, I tripped on bare carpet ! That takes skill ," he said brushing his shoulders . I stifle a chuckle and look towards Jade who is looking back up at me once Bryan and Zach have left the area .

"Shall we go then ?" I say putting my hand on her shoulder .
She nods and we walk along the school corridors .
Honestly I've never felt any way towards a girl like I've felt towards Jade, it's like we've gotten so attached at that instant and I've had an urge to always be around her . That might sound so damn cliché but it's true . She's became my obsession in the little time I've known her and I have a feeling we'll be more than just friends .

Exiting school I take her to my black camero , I bought it myself and its a used one but it looks good as new.
Opening the door for her she thanks me and I go to my side of the car while grabbing the keys from my pocket .
Getting in, I turn on the car and let it warm up since it is quite chilly .
Looking at Jade I see she's being quiet, I know we've only practically just met but I wish she'd be more comfortable around me .
"Jade," my voice rasps out catching her attention .
Looking away from her shirt that she was straightening out, or pretending to at least, she has a look of nervousness in her eyes and I clear my throat and take a deep breath .

"You don't have to be nervous babe ," I don't know where the babe part came from but I think it gave her confidence .
She was trying to hide her smile but I saw it and I couldn't help but feel better by that little gesture . "It's just ," she paused licking her slightly dry lips and speaking out again, "Why me ?" She asked and I scrunched my eyebrows up in confusion.
"What do you mean why you?" I asked, curious .
"You could have any other girl hanging out with you right now , but yet, you chose to go for a girl like me ." She says and I swear I heard my heart beat slow down and my blood to stop moving .
"Like you ?" I paused and put my hand on her cheek ,
"You mean a girl who isn't afraid to speak up, a girl who doesn't care what people think about her and is full of honesty, with flaws that make her perfect in every single way and who has the perfect body that she doesn't like to show off ," I look at her eyes and her huge smile spreading .
Gliding down to her in between the seats I gladly whisper in her ear, "And a girl with an extremely sexy ass ?" I joke and the moment is ruined with her many dying fits of laughter .
