Micahs POV:
As class continues, I notice Skylar glancing at me. I was wondering why, and I wanted to ask her, but I decided to just leave her alone as I focused on class instead... but I also ended up glancing over at her from time to time. I couldn't help but admire how much prettier she became over the years I was gone. Her emerald green eyes, her golden blonde hair that fell perfectly onto her shoulders, her bright smile, I missed her so fucking much more than I had realized but now as I was sitting next to her I realized it. I was just glad to be back. I had always had feelings for her. I just hid them very, very well because I didn't want to ruin our friendship... but I knew I'd have to tell her soon...
Skylars POV:
I notice Micah glancing over at me, and it makes me blush slightly, but I quickly look down to hide it so he won't notice. I kept my eyes down the rest of class until the bell rings signaling it was time for lunch, which I was excited about since I would get to talk to Micah more. I pack up my notebook, and my stuff and Micah does the same as we walk out of the classroom and towards the cafeteria. I don't know why but there was a burning question in the back of my mind that I wanted to ask him so I cleared my throat and said "so...just out of pure curiosity...did you have any girlfriends while you were away?" I ask in a soft but curious voice as I look at him with a gentle gaze.
A soft chuckle escapes from his lips as we walk, and he says, "yea I had a girlfriend at one point...most of the time I was just fucking around though I never really fully committed to anybody if that makes sense" he responds calmly and softly.
I slowly nodded, showing that I understood. I honestly wasn't surprised that he was just messing around the whole time. He was always the type of guy who never committed to anything.
Micah then smirks slightly and says, "Did you ever get yourself a boyfriend, or were you single the whole time I was gone?" He asks, his tone half curious and half teasing
I blush a tiny bit from embarrassment as I say "no...I've stayed single the whole time you were gone." I respond quietly as I was a tiny bit embarrassed, and Micahs smirk only grows.
He then says, "Well...I could change that," he says, his voice joking as he responds, but...was he really joking with me? I couldn't tell, and I blushed even more and said "i...well I mean, i..." I say, not even able to form full sentences as he then laughs and says,"I was just kidding Sky. Don't worry, " he says in a soft voice, and I let out a slight sigh of relief, though deep down I really wished he wasn't kidding.
Micahs POV:
As soon as the words 'I could change that' left my mouth, I was filled with regret. I was scared that I had just fucked everything up but once I said I was kidding she seemed to beleive me and I was very relieved although deep down...I wasn't joking...I just brushed it off and put it out of my mind as we continue talking, catching up on anything we hadn't talked about over the past three years as we eventually get to the cafeteria and we sit down next to each other and eat our food.
Skylars POV:
As Micah and I sit down at the cafeteria table, we continue to talk about random stuff... except I couldn't get my mind off of what he said earlier about changing the fact that I was single, but I was quickly snapped out of thought as I felt my plate of food get snatched away from me and I let out a heavy sigh as I knew exactly who it was...and I was right.
I turn my head and look up, seeing my bully Jayden, the boy who had been making my life a living hell over the past few years, holding my tray of food as he said "hey fattie I thought I told you to lay off the food...I guess you forgot. I'm not surprised." He says, his voice harsh and his words stinging badly.
I wasn't exactly big, but I was slightly overweight, and Jayden never failed to shame me about it. I wasn't in the mood to argue with him, so I sighed quietly and said "you're right...sorry" I say in a quiet voice and Jayden laughed and said "thats what I thought bitch" his voice still sharp as he walked away still laughing while I sit at the table with a sad expression on my face as I look up and see Micah who looked absolutely furious.
Micahs POV:
As soon as I see Jayden approaching me and Skylars table, I instantly get upset. Even before I left for a while, he bullied Skylar, and I had always hated him for it. As he calls her fat, a frown grows on my face, and I glare at him angrily. I stay silent, not wanting to make the situation worse and once he left I looked at Skylar and I slid my lunch over to her since hers was taken and I smile at her softly as I say "don't let his words get to you please. You aren't fat. Your body is beautiful...now I'm going to go teach that asshole a lesson, " I say, my voice starting soft but getting firmer at the end of my sentence as the anger was back on my face as I get up from the table and walk over to Jayden where he was sitting with his friends as I was about to teach him the lesson he fucking deserved...
