Jake and Terry had interrogated me all morning, but I stuck with my story.
"I told you, I just wanted to get home on time. Nothing happened" I assured them.
They didn't need to know. Dane had called and texted a bunch of times, but I didn't care to answer.
They let me leave for school and I got picked up by Serena, I put on my sunglasses as I walked out of the house and towards her car.
"What are you gonna do about Dane?" She asks me as I lean my head back on the headrest.
"Nothing, we're just friends who made out a couple of times, I see that now. So, that's what it'll be" I say and shrug.
"You little heartbreaker" Serena laughed. "No, but seriously, why is it so hard for me to catch feelings for anyone? Except Marcus of course, that fucker sticks onto me like glue" I retort annoyed.
"He's the first guy you've ever liked this way, there's just always something about them, you'll never really loose feelings, you learn to deal with it and ignore it, but they'll never go away" Serena said, suddenly it got dark and I slide my sunglasses down on my nose to see her face properly.
"You good?" I ask her with a raised eyebrow.
"Yeah, Tobias texted me last night, I forgot to tell you" Serena admitted. There it was, that's why it got dark.
Tobias was her first love, they didn't last though. He went to college last year, so they broke up knowing it would hurt them more than it would do them any good.
"What did he say?" I ask her carefully.
"He said he misses me, that he'll be done in a year, then his plan is to return home" Serena said and I could see the small hint of a smile on her lips.
"Are you gonna wait for him?" I ask her knowingly. "I don't know, I miss him and I love him, still after almost a year apart" Serena admitted with a shrug.
"I understand, is he gonna come and see you?" I ask her, she shrugs once again.
"Well, remember you're booked this weekend, we're going college hunting" I remind her and she giggles before hooking her hand with mine.
I smile at her and look back at the road, we were already at school. The hell hole.
We park and get inside, the last month of so, we had been left alone by Daisy and her minions. Everyone was minding their own business and for once it was like there was room and space for everybody.
"We're still going straigth after school right?" Serena asks me and I nod. "Yeah, Jake will meet us there" I say and she nods.
"It's a four hour drive, but whatever" Serena said and shrugged, I chuckled before focusing on our teacher who entered the classroom.
