Senior lies

Bonding (her pov)

First week is over, couldn'tve been any sooner. My bestfriends Raven and Chris were still in Italy on vacation for the first week and since I'm not very extroverted and because of the fake stories that asshole Alden keeps telling about me they are my only friends. This Friday we're going on a class bonding trip, it happens every year. My school is also not like any other American school because in mine you have the same class for all lessons. So for the class bonding trip we are going to NewYork but that is pretty far away so the trip is at least 3 hours on the bus and we need to leave very early in the morning. The rest of the week is pretty normal, luckily the lessons weren't that bad yet. I have different lessons than Raven and Chris so I'm not in the same class as them, wich means the field trip is going to be very very boring. At lunchbreak on Tuesday we were talking, well I was doing most of the talking, and I was complaining about Alden the entire day.
"You know if you can't stop talking about him we might start to think you like him"
How dare she, me like Alden, the asshole whom I've hated ever since we were born. Raven was very much in the wrong with that one.
"But then why do we talk about H*tler in history all of the time it's not like mr. Jevon (our history teacher) has a crush on him"
Was my reply.
"I mean we never know, mr. Jevon is gay"
Chris finally said after he had been silent the entire time. He never really talks that much.
"Okay but so are you so and you don't have a crush on H*tler"
Ooh Raven had him good.
"All I'm saying" she continued "is that Alden is not the worst looking guy and he's not so rude towards anyone"
"He is towards me"
"Yeah but didn't you tell us he was trying to protect you and all, maybe he likes you"
I made a puking face, no way in any universe does that dude have a crush on me.
Lunch was over and maths started.
Soon it was Friday, probably the worst day this week because I couldn't see Raven and Chris and because Alden was in my class. He's the only person in my class that would talk to me even if it was rudely because of all the fake stories about me. I took a seat on the bus, almost everybody had also took a seat except for Alden. The seat next to me was still empty. He sat there.
"Mhm no way go sit somewhere else there are plenty of other spots left."
"But I wanna sit here."
That rude ass motherfucker. I had the window seat so I couldn't get away. I just faced the window the entire time and shortly fell asleep because it was 6am and I was tired. After an hour or so I woke up WITH MY HEAD ON ALDENS SHOULDER, but... he didn't move it why didn't he move my head I mean he hates me.
"Ah you're finally awake I hope my shoulder was comfortable."
Shit shit shit shit he knew I was up. I immediately moved my head up and pushed it against the window again.
"Hey, I didn't mind you know."
Why wouldn't he mind MY HEAD WAS ON HIS FUCKING SHOULDER.
"Don't get your hopes up it'll never happen again"
He was looking up, he seemed so idk peaceful. That's when I saw it his knuckles were bruised.
When he noticed I was looking he covered them.
"You know if you're going to be in fights you should ice your fists after, not that I care"
"Sure you don't"
For some insane reason he layed his head on my shoulder, I flinched but had not a single drop of energy to move his head. Another 2 hours had past and we were there.
"Okay class partner up in groups of two, you have to go with a person you usually don't talk to"
Alden looked at me and since he was the only person who would want to go with me we paired up. The teacher handed everybody a piece of paper.
"You have to complete all of the things on this paper. All of them are picture assignments so be sure to have your phone locked and loaded"
This means I have to take pictures with Alden uh.
"Okay maybe we should go to the Statue of Liberty first since it's the closest."
"Fine"
I sighed and we left. We arrived in 5 minutes, first I took a picture with my phone, he was so close to my face I could hear him breath. He gulped the second our ears touched.
"Okay now you take a picture with your phone"
"Yes ma'am"
He took out his phone but when he took the picture he quickly kissed my cheek.
I pulled away the second his disgusting lips touched my cheek and he just laughed.
"Relax it was just a joke let's take another one"
We did and I couldn't help but notice in the picture that he showed me that he was looking at me, not strangely but peacefully.
On the way home in the bus my headphones broke so I couldn't listen to my music. He offered to share his and we did. All of the songs we listened to were song I like, how does he know? I fell asleep and we got back home he dropped me off since it was too late for my mom to pick me up.
"Hey how'd you know that I like these songs?"
He looked at me and silently walked away.
