A liars truth

Part 11

Hayden's PoV

"Marjorie can you pass me that wrench please?" I'm currently underneath Noa and Marjorie's kitchen sink. They have had a leak for god knows how long. Noa had detention, her last detention with the girls today. So I came straight here to help Marjorie out. When I arrived Marjorie was acting sketchy. She kept holding this bear like a teddy bear, with a glazed look on her face. She's also really quiet today. She's barely spoke to me since I arrived but you know everyone gets an off day so I leave her be. I tighten the loose part of the pipe and sit up hearing my phone beep.

Noa 🌹 - hey handsome where are you? Xxx
Hayden ❤️‍🔥🛹 - hey beautiful, I'm actually at your house fixing the sink for your mom. Where are you? Xxx
Noa 🌹 - just out of detention. I didn't know you were at my house. I wouldn't have agreed to pizza with mouse if I'd known you were there. Are you staying long? Xxx
Hayden ❤️‍🔥🛹 - that's ok beautiful. I had some free time so thought I would help. I have an assignment that's due tomorrow so I need to go home and do that. But enjoy your pizza with mouse and I'll see you tomorrow. Message me when your home? Xxx
Noa 🌹 - ok handsome. See you tomorrow. Message you soon xxx

I hadn't planned to see Noa but it would have certainly been a nice touch. I lean up to the sink after putting my phone away and run the faucet to see if iv sorted the leak. A triumphant yes is quietly shouted seeing there's no longer a leak. "Marjorie... that's your leak sorted" I shout from the kitchen as Marjorie comes back in. "Thank you Hayden, sorry I haven't been an ideal host today. My minds been a bit occupied" she admits as she zones off looking at the table. "That's ok. Don't worry about it. Anything I can help with?" I ask whilst kneeling and tidying all the tools away. When I stand up and look at Marjorie, she quickly turns me down "no no Hayden. It's not for you to worry about. Thank you for the sink. Come round some time this week and I'll sort some pizza for you guys?" She changes the subject and perks herself up so I don't question her more. "Yeh sounds nice. I need to head out though so I'll see you soon?" I grab my bag and my board and walk towards the door. "Yeh Hayden. Thank you for today. Get home safe" Marjorie shouts after me as I open and close their door behind me.

The skate home was peaceful and didn't take long. I flipped up my board as I approached our new home. When I got inside Mrs Hayworth shouted me into the kitchen where the girls were having dinner. I sat down beside Imogen giving her a quick hug before grabbing a plate for dinner. Mrs Hayworth dropped the bomb that our house has some people interested in buying it and she's going to organise someone to pack our things and clean the house. Imogen wasn't happy with this Idea as she immediately begged Mrs Hayworth that we could pack up the house. I mean yey for me. I'd like to pack up my room but we both know I'll be doing all the packing whilst Imogen orders me around. After a brief discussion about plans for the house I took myself up to our bedroom so I could start my assignment. By the time Noa messaged I was nearly finished so decided to take a break and called her for a while. What planned to be a quick chat with Noa turned into a two hour phone call which only ended due to Imogen's pestering for me to shut up. We said our goodbyes and I finished up ... early in the morning... schools going to be fun.

This is torture! Nothing could improve my mood today. I think I got about two hours sleep and I'll let you in on a secret HAYDEN NEEDS AT LEAST EIGHT HOURS. "Your so dramatic!" Imogen laughs at my upset from lack of sleep. "Imogen come back to me when your baby is keeping you up all night. I need my eight hours and I'll tell you this now ... the minute I get home...I'm going to bed and going to sleep for at least twenty four hours. Nothing and I mean nothing can improve my mood today" I moan grabbing my tray and walking into the canteen with Imogen. When I look up to the table I normally sit at with the girls, my breath gets caught in my throat as my legs stop working. Imogen turns round confused as to why I'm no longer following beside her... when she follows my line of vision she sees Noa sitting on the lunch table. "Your such a dork! How you get all these beautiful women I'll never understand" Imogen exclaims as she grabs my arm tugging me forward. I sit down opposite Noa, avoiding looking at the beautiful brunette. Why am I avoiding looking at her?
