'Don't worry about it,I'm fine :)' I write and pass the note back to him. as he reads it he doesn't look fully convinced "are you sure?" He whispers "yeah I'm-" I start but I'm cut off by my annoyed English teacher "jake,drew stop flirting at the back of the classroom!" Says the teacher followed by a loud "Oooo~" of the class. I feel my face heat up but jake had no reaction. Of course he didn't,what am I thinking? I sigh and lay my head on the desk feeling somewhat exhausted.
As I recalled what happened with the music fr-...club I start to feel a wave of self-consciousness over me. Why did daisy have to point me out? I probably looked like a creepy stalker. Just thinking about it makes me want to bash my head on the desk out of embarrassment. I am seriously an idiot. I can't help but keep my eyes on jake the whole lesson. His fluffy hair. His chocolate brown eyes. They were all so enchanting and...kind and I felt as if I could melt just being next to him. It was like my problems were washing away but it was pointless. They would always return. No matter how far back I push them they always sneak up on me. Tormenting me at the worst times like today.
The rest of the day went by. It didn't go "like a breeze" or anything it just went by. Time ticking away. Being sat in a dull classroom listening to the teacher ramble about things no one really cares about except from some werid nerds. Its almost like Time is going quicker than usual. It's like it doesn't matter anymore. Nothing does. It doesn't matter if I was in a boring lesson before because I'm not anymore so why does it matter in the moment...? It doesn't. As I'm leaving the classroom I hear someone call my name. They sounded quite eager to talk to me. I really don't care who it is because I'm still gonna pretend I can't hear them and leave school as fast as possible anyway. When I left the school I started to leg it back to my house. I had already had a shit day and not to be rude but I don't think I could deal with zoey. Or Henry. Or liam in fact. I just wanted to mope around in peace and maybe look back at me and jakes texts. I wonder what the music club are gonna say to me tomorrow. Maybe I could just act like it was a joke? I Don't think so but it's worth a shot.
When I get to my entryway I grab my silver house key out my pocket and unlock the door. Heat radiates from inside the house as I step in,shutting the door behind behind me. I look down at the wooden tiles on the floor and then up at the empty mansion. This is the life any other kid my age would dream of. Tons of money. A cute girl friend. Being able to do whatever you want. But not me. Honestly it feels like my life is boring. I have no loving parent to make me dinner or celebrate my achievements. Just post-it notes. Speaking of post-it notes I go over to the counter and pick up the most recent one. It was a yellow post-it note with my dad's hand writing on it.

I sigh. Ofcourse he is at a business trip. Why am I not surprised. I plop my bag off my back and head to my room disappointed.
