Truth be told

17

"Angelica wake up we slept in," I hear Ma scream from downstairs.

My eyes pop open and I rip out of bed. I run to my closet grabbing jeans a shirt and a sweater. After I run to my dresser grabbing socks underwear and a bra. I throw everything on, grab my phone and basically fly out of my room. I'm almost down when I trip on a step falling down the stairs.

Thump bump thump.

"Owwwwwwww!"

I climb off the floor holding my but, and stumble to the kitchen.

"Don't forget I'm picking you up after school hon. Now hurry so you don't miss the bus," Ma says kissing my forehead. Oh and how's your butt?"

"Sore. bye Ma."

"Bye sweetie. Have a great day."

"You to Ma."

I grab my bag and lunch, open the door and run to the bus stop. When I get to the bus stop I place my hands on my knees trying to catch my breath.

After I got my breath back, I waited for the bus to pick me up.

I guess I'm not the only one that's late.

After I waited for around 5 minutes the bus finally showed up. I climb on politely greeting the driver, and walk back to find William. To my surprise he isn't on the bus but Lauren is.

"Hey Laur. What you doing on my bus?" I asked.

"Don't call my Laur, I don't like it. And I am on your bus because I need to talk to you." Lauren said turning from the window.

"Okay. What do you need I talk to me about?"

"Oh well I was wondering how your relationship with William is going?" Lauren asked in a sarcastic yet angry tone.

"Wha? I don't? Wha?" I stuttered. "How did you find out?"

"Oh well I seen you to making out in the halls. You know it hurts to think that my friend, starts dating the guy that I like, just after I tell her I like him." She spits out like poison.

I sit in shock. Lauren seen Will kissing me, and she knows that we are dating.

"Lauren I'm sorry. I know you like Will, but I like him to, and he likes me back. I'm not just going to throw away the first relationship I will have, just so you can try to get him," I state firmly.

"You know Angelica? You are a real bitch. You will lose him and I will get him. It's just a matter of time."

"I'm not going to fight with you for him. That is childish. I'm also not going to keep sitting here."

I grabbed my bag, stood up giving Lauren a glare and walked to another seat. I don't even ask the person already in the seat of I could sit there I just plopped down. With one hand I fish out my phone from my bag and with the other I untangle my earbuds. After getting my phone out I plug in my ear buds, and turn on my music. As my music played my brain was thinking about what would happen between Lauren and I, and even thinking if Lauren was right and me and William wouldn't last long.

As I sit with my brain elsewhere, I feel a tingling wet feel on my legs, stomach and my crotch. I look down and see water being sprayed at me. My cheeks heat up as anger slowly takes over my body.

"Lauren. What the hell. You sprayed me with a water gun and it looks like I peed my pants," I yell at her infuriated.

She snickers and high fives one of the other girls around her.

"See how much William will like you now," She Spits at me turning in her seat smiling.

The bus pulls into the drop of at the school and I tie my sweater around my waist to cover the water spot. I climb off the bus and see Will waiting for me. He smiled when he seen me and when I reached him he grabbed my hand.

"I thought we could walk to class together,"Will said while we pushed through the front doors.

"Alright that sounds like fun," I say distantly.

"What's wrong? I can tell that something is bothering you so please tell me what it is," Will asks as he stops us.

"Do you remember Lauren that I was talking to you about? Well she likes you and she is mad at me because we are together. She said that we won't last long, and that you will be hers like your  some lost puppy."

I Finnish in a huff and stomp my foot like a child. Will chuckles and smirks at me while he watches me.

"WHAT!" I scream which sends him into a fit of laughter. "WHAT IS SO FUNNY?"

Will sobers from his laughing fit and says," you look cute when you get mad. also I'm not going anywhere."

He moves closer to me cupping my cheek. he leans in kissing me soft on the lips. we pull back still close but not too close. I look at him and smile when the bell rings and we break apart. Will grabs my hand and we walk hand in hand to class.
