Until We Meet Again

Chapter Seven : Just wait for Her

Chapter Seven : Just wait for her

I couldn't believe this! Out of all classes to have ,he had mine ? Why couldnt he be in any other classes and not right beside me ? Yes, Ive been dying to see Jason but not so close and not so unexpected! I dont function correctly this close to him and on top of all of that, I had to give him a tour of the school. Yay me...

"And that the lunch room," I pointed out. I had just finished giving Jason the tour and I swear everytime I looked at him I melted. But the whole time I acted as if I didnt know him because what if I say 'oh do you remember me' and he looks at me as if suddenly, Id grown a new head.

"Joy...can I ask you something?" He asked looking straight in my eyes, making me melt again. "Sure" I said hesitantly. "Are you...pa-. Nevermind its useless" He said sighing. "No, What was it?" I asked with a sudden burst of confidence. "Has anyone ever called you the name Pancakes?" He asked with fear written all over his face. "Has anyone ever called you Captain Underpants?" I asked and a smile slowly but surely crept onto my face. "Are you serious?" He asked before stepping slowly towards me. "Yeah you called me Pancakes and I called you undies for a day and a half" I said . As I turned to leave he grabbed my wrist pulling me back towards him. As soon as I turned all I seen was him and we were so close that I could feel his breath on my face. He was inching closer to my face. But Im not suppose to have boyfriend, Mom would kill me! I snaped out of my mental debate when I felt his lips brush mine. My eyes flashed up to his. "Wait," I said with my hand on his chest. "You didn't talk to your parents right?" He asked taking a seat right beside the lunchroom. "No. Im sorry. I just ...its too much . Especcally with all the comotion going on in my house." I said taking a seat right beside him. "Its okay" He said finding his finger nail very interesting. "Well thats the end of the tour,I guess" i said standing up. "Well see you around" He said and suddenly left in a hurry.

WHAT HAVE I DONE? Why did I do that? What does his sad and kind of rude behavoir mean? Did he actually wait for me? No it just means he remembers you. But... But nothing, he doesnt nessacarily like you.

"You can be so smart sometimes, Joy" Orlando said after I told him what happened. "Im sorry! What was I suppose to say?" I said pacing the hallway during lunch. "Nothing! He wasn't going to molest you." He said walking away. "So your telling me that if you were in my position and Janea finally asked you out you wouldnt say anything?" I asked placing my hands in my hips. Sudennly he turned around and he came close to me . NOt as close as me and Jason, but close enough for me to hear him whisper, "Look I dont know but what Ive seen fr the past few months is you hurt. Ive come to your house plenty of times and you were crying because yuo missed him so much.And I just dont want you to hurt anymore." He said. "Oh" I said, shcocked at his sudden outburst. " Didn't know I cared that much huh?" He asked in his regular voice. "No" I said bluntly. " Well I do. I just dont tell you I love you all the time because I hate being a mushy gushy" He said ."Well Im sorry then" I said holding my head down. "No he'll be sorry" He said which caused my head to snap up to his face. He had a smug facial expression and that my wonders go every where."What do you mean?" I asked slowly. " I mean you are going to get that boy to talk to you. I will help. wait no scratch that. I know he will never like you if you do som kind of mind trick. And Im getting ahead of myself. I am not getting wrapped into that whole helping-my-best-friend-get-her-man-back-drama." he said. "So what am I suppose to do?" I asked throwing my hands up. "We are going to talk to your parents ...maybe just your mom" he said calmly,as if it was nothing. "What?!" I almost screamed. "Whats the worst that could happen?" He asked.

All the misunderstandings I went through flashed through my mind. All the times when she mistaken her trust for me every time I asked about this flashed through my mind and it kinda made me feel uneasy about this . What if she found out I kissed him? Aunt Earlene and my mother were close and she could easliy tell her. This was all too much for my brain to process. "Um, I dont think thats a good idea Orlando " I said looking at my oh-so-interesting shoe. "Why not?"
