Life Upside Down (Teacher/Student Relationship)

Chapter 21

[Hey guys I started a new story called ''The Vampire With The Chelsea Grin'' please give it a shot even if it's only in the beginning:3]

*Ariel Collins*

 If it's a war you came to see, you'll never see a waved white flag, in front of me I can't end up dead I will be misled I'll keep singing this song inside my head! If it- 

"Yeah?" I grumbled as I picked up my phone. Groaning loudly I rolled over trying to untangle myself from the sheets but I only ended up on the floor with a loud thump.

"Ariel? Are you okay?" Ian sounded concerned from the other end of the line.

"Yeah," I started moaning as I slowly stood up, stumbling in the process and ending on landing against my wardrobe with another loud noise, "I just keep falling on the furniture." I sighed and stood up rubbing my lower back.

"Glad you woke up sweetheart. Time for school." Ian said cheerly making me scrunch my nose. Wait, what day is it?"

"What day is it? What year, what month?" I started bubbling looking at my clock to see it was already seven thirty. 

"You have thirty minutes to get ready lovely." He said and I could imagine the smile on his face as he hang up.

I quickly threw my cellphone on the bed and took the quickest shower I have ever taken. I threw on a pair of baggy sweatpants, my Betraying The Martyrs hoodie and a pair of sneakers and run out of the room, about to wake Ollie up.

But as soon as I opened the door Ollie was nowhere in sight. Her bed was neat and her stuff not thrown around as usual. Frowning I grabbed my backpack from the hall and darted out of the house, locking the door behind me as I run to the school.

As I got in my class I was happy enough to see that the teacher hadn't gotten in yet. But Ollie wasn't here either. I slipped in my seat, placing my backpack on the desk and pulled out my phone texting her.

Where are you? 

But I got no reply. Where the hell was she? As I thought about it I haven't seen her the last couple of days but I hadn't noticed since I'd spend most of my time with Ian or at the tattoo parlor.

I felt like a god awful friend for not having noticed that my bestie was nowhere in sight.

The rest of the Literature class I couldn't focus on anything the teacher said. My mind kept nagging at me as I tried to think somewhere Ollie would be. When the bell rang I started calling her again, but her phone went straight to voicemail. 

I groaned loudly and waited patiently for an idea to come up to me when I felt someone quickly dragging me into an empty classroom and locking the door. I turned around ready to scream but I physically relaxed when I saw it was just Ian.

"Hey." I sighed as he walked up to me and wrapped his arms around my waist. 

"What's wrong?" He pouted as soon as he saw my face and stroke my hair slowly.

"I can't find Ollie anywhere. I feel such a bad friend, I haven't seen her for almost a week and I didn't even notice." I groaned and rubbed my forehead against his chest as he chuckled.

"Don't laugh!" I swatted his chest but instead of scolding me, he cupped my cheeks and placed his warm lips over mine, making me melt.

"Relax, she'll be probably at her parents." He soothed, running his fingers through my hair.

"Isn't she supposed to tell me though? It gets me on edge not knowing where and if she is alright." I pouted and run my finger in aimless circles against his button up shirt. Ian smiled down at me and dipped his head, nuzzling my neck.
