7

(george's pov)

a week of school goes by and surprisingly, it wasn't that bad.

even though celine kept giving me disgusted looks and distancing herself from me, i really didn't give a fuck.

i walk into school then to my class and sit down on my seat, waiting for clay to show up.

i take out my phone and scroll through my camera roll out of boredom

i tend to do that a lot, mainly because i find comfort in old memories and stuff like that

i feel someone sitting down beside me and i look up to see clay, obviously

"hey!" he says

"clayy!" i say going in for a hug

"how are you?" he asks, accepting the hug

"i'm alright, what about you?" i say, pulling away from the hug

"i'm good," he says "whatchu up to this weekend?"

"um, i mean, it is my birthday this saturday" i say looking at my desk

"what?" he says "in two days?"

i laugh " yeah"

"georgeee, you should've told me earlier"

"i know, i know"

"thanks for giving me barely any time to get you a gift, idiot" he says gently elbowing my arm

"you don't have to get a gift, you know"

"oh yes i do," he says "you deserve a gift"

i don't deserve anything "whatever you say"

he smiles at me then looks at the teacher that had just walked in

----------------------------------------

it was the middle of class, me and clay were playing xo on a note out of boredom

'ur so trash at this' i write to him after he lost another game

'fuck off '

':)'

he pauses before writing something

'r u free saturday at 7?'

i stare at the note before writing back

'yeah why'

'can i take u somewhere, like a birthday picnic?'

i stare at the note in awe would he really do that for me?

'yeah sure :)'

he smiles at me then gives me a side hug he's so amazing

-----------------------------------------

i was eating lunch with my mom when i heard my phone buzz

it was a message from an unknown number saying 'hey!'

i ignored it and continued eating

"who's that?" my mum asks

"unknown number" i say

she nods and we continue eating in silence

then i get another notification from the same number but this time it reads 'its me clay', 'i got ur number from karl'

i pick up my phone and save his number

"let me guess," my mum says "is it clay?"

she gets up and puts her plate in the sink, then she walks towards me and pats my shoulders "you really like him, huh?" she says

"mum," i say looking at her "he has a girlfriend."
