• Lunch •
I sit at a table, and Makayla seats next to me.
"Jules.", Makayla says.
"Makayla.", I say back to her.
"Can I ask you something?", Makayla asks me.
"You just did.", I say beaming while eating my lunch.
"Well, then can I ask you another question?", She asks me again.
"Ok", I say while nodding, letting her know that I'm ready.
"Do you like Christan?", Makayla asks me.
"No.", I say back to her. She giggled, which made me smile.
She then rolls her eyes. "I don't know, babe. There is something with you two. That I can't exactly put my finger on.", she says.
"Ok, ew, don't even say that!!", I say, laughing. What does she mean something with you two? Then the bell rings, and we part on our way to class.
I head to room 405, but as I reach the 4th floor, I realize I forget it books. I go back downstairs to the 2nd floor, where my locker stands, and grab my books. But to my surprise when I shut my locker door, a familiar face is staring right at me.
"Christian", I say.
"Violet", Christan says, which pisses me off. Is my name so difficult to say?
"Jules, you mean.", I say annoyed.
"Hmm.....Nice books.", Christan says, I roll my eyes and then walk away, but as I'm walking I realize I forget my phone in my locker. I head back over, but to my shock, I see Christan and some girl smooching right on my locker.
"Excuse me.", I say, they don't move. I then cough, but still, they don't budge.
"Get off my locker.", I say louder.
The loud hall goes quiet as I feel everyone in those halls turn to look at me. They move, and I just open my locker as normal.
After School
Once my last period ended, I pack my things and quickly head to the grassland. I sit on the bench, where I get my book out of my bag and begin reading. As I'm near the end of the book, I feel a breeze. I turn around and to my uncertainty, there's Christan with his arms over the bench, as he places his head on my shoulder.
"What are you doing?", he asks.
"Leaving.", I say as I latch onto my book, and grab my bag.
"Come on, Violet.", Christan screams, as I'm already across from the bench by now. I head to the library and pick out some new books.
"These books, Roger.", I say.
"Sure thing, Jules.", Roger says, as he checks the books out. "How's the school?", he asks me.
"It's okay. They just have some bizarre people there. Like this boy, I feel like he makes it his life mission to annoy me. I'm knackered.", I answer.
"Want me to beat him up?", Roger jokes.
"It's fine, I'll manage.", I answer back.
"Here are your books.", Roger says, handing me the books.
"Cheers!", I say, thanking him, then leave.
