Are We... Friends?

"Hey!" a girl came up to you, "What do you think you were doing talking to Alhaitham? I'll have you know that he's mine, so you better back off if you know what's good for you." 

"But I thought Alhaitham wasn't friends with anyone. I think you're quite mistaken," you said firmly for once, 'My stutter- huh?' "Seems like you don't know who I am, fine. I'm Diana, and I'm the person you should never cross." "*yawn* Ok, whatever."

The girl seemed like she wanted to punch you in the face until the teacher came in, and she then promptly went back to her seat with her two friends. 'Yep, I've definitely made an enemy already.'

You shook it off and took out your notebook as the teacher started teaching.



After a few long hours of classes, you walked out the front gates knowing that you did not remember a single thing any of the teachers taught that day. It reminded you of a phone number you got that day.

You entered it into your phone and texted, 

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

You
Hey, Alhaitham, could you maybe help me with my homework?
I have no clue what I learned today.

Alhaitham
Sure.
When are you free? I could Facetime you tonight.

You
Thanks :)
How's 8 pm sound?

Alhaitham
Good.
I'll see you then.

You
See you :)

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

You walked home smiling, 'He's a nice guy, after all, shame that he doesn't have many friends. Now, what do I do about that Diana girl? Pretty sure Alhaitham doesn't even know who she is. Actually, he might know her, he probably just doesn't care. Whatever, I've got a lot of homework today, I should try some questions myself first.'




~8 pm~

The two of you started the call and it starts off relatively academic. You asked him about this and that and he then guides you through the whole thing. Not long after, you'd completed the homework relatively quickly. 

However, the study session started to change to a not-so-serious conversation. "Hey, d- do you know a g- girl named Diana by any ch- chance?" you started. "Oh. Her. Well, I wouldn't say know, it would be more that she's interested in me. I'm not quite convinced she's not going to just use me for homework though."

"W- well... the thing is... sh- she threatened me if I spoke w- with you ever ag- gain, I'd-" "Oh, I see. In that case, I'll tell her tomorrow that if she ever hurt you in any way, she'd be having some unpleasant meetings with the principal." 

You were speechless, someone was protecting you. The second person to do so, right after the lady that took you under her wing, of course. But a question was in the back of your mind for quite a while, so you opened your mouth, hoping you wouldn't stutter.




"Alhaitham, are we... friends?"
