Crescent Fall

Chapter 4: Confused

The bell rung signalling the start of lunch. Mari packed her stuffs into her bag, stood up and went to Alex desk which was at the back of the class. Mari sighed and shaked her head at her friend, the girl basically slept throughout Ap Calculus. How Mr. Reid, a werewolf and one of the strictest teachers in crescent high didn't notice her throughout class she had no idea.

Ap Calculus was one of the subjects that her and Alex had alone together including Ap English literature and food and nutrition. Alex was always filled with new surprises everyday, every moment even every seconds. One would think since Mari has known her for eleven years, she should know her best friend in and out but that's the problem she doesn't, not that she hasn't tried but she just can't. Trying to know what goes through her head was trying to figure out how to break a diamond and that's pretty hard.

Mari had also tried to figure out how Alex studied since she literally skips or sleep through classes but yet comes out with only A's no B's just A's. She hated people like that, she felt why should they be naturally intelligent, it wasn't fair to her but she couldn't get herself to hate Alex for it instead she smiles at how lazy her friend is.

Mari tapped Alex on the shoulder "hey wake up you sleepy head",she said stifling her giggle from the sight of her friend wriggling out of her hand "seriously Alex, everyone has gone to the cafeteria were the only ones still class"

"A minute", Alex said making Mari roll eyes. Using her two hands she lifted Alex up from the shoulder but she made sure not use her strength not to look suspicious.

"Not fair Mari I said a minute"

"And I said let's go for lunch"

"Argh your so annoying", Alex said picking up her bag and then leaving the class.

"I love you too", yelled Mari going after her.

Meeting up with the girls strides she asked eagerly "so...how was your date with Jason"

"Nice", Mari rolled her eyes at her one worded answer.

"How nice"

"Good"

"For goodness sake Alex just tell me how it went...I hope you didn't strangle him", she muttered that part quietly but Alex managed to hear it.

"Oh how I would love it", murmured Alex.

"Alex!"

Groaning and throwing her head back in frustration "it went like any normal high school date, he took me for lunch, to the cinema and arcade and we took a night stroll in the park",she said.

"So you guys basically spent almost the whole day together"

"I guess", Alex shrugged paying half attention to the discussion.

"Do you like Jason Al", whispered Mari for only Alex to hear.

Jerking her head so fast away from Mari,"The fuck no..what the hell Mari", Alex whispered yell scrunching her face in disgust and began to increase her pace.

Chuckling, Mari caught up to her "am sorry I was joking", no response "seriously Al, I was just teasing you please don't be mad at me"

"Am not mad, I just don't want to continue with the topic of discussion", Alex said not sparing Mari a glance just staring and walking ahead.

They finally reached the cafeteria, took their trays of food and went to sit with their remaining friends in the middle of the cafeteria.

"Were on earth have you guys been", asked Cleo.

"Someone slept throughout calculus period"

"At least that's better I was stuck with her...", Hannah said pointing her fork at Liv ".... for art class and it was hell lemme tell ya"
