I really wanna stop but I just got the taste for it,

I feel like I could fly with the boy on the moon,

So honey hold my hand, you like making me wait for it.

Chapter 10: Love Will Conquer.

{Troye's P.O.V.}

Tyler & I walked into class together, hand in hand, taking seats near the back, but not exactly, making sure to stay away from Ricky & his minions. His buddies, Hannah & Mamrie sat with us, poking fun & teasing both of us, but I could tell it was all just fun & games. They seemed to like me & Ty together.

Mr. Dawson got down to business immediately & passed out our assigned book for the Quarter. It was A Midsummer Nights Dream by William Shakespeare. I flipped the book to the back to read the summary, still holding Tyler's hand. Tyler was too busy staring at me to do much of anything & The Harts were staring at the two of us, squealing over how "cute we are."

"Read to page 67 by Monday, yes?" Mr. Dawson pointed at the board & everyone in the entire class collectively groaned.

He sat down in his seat, putting his legs up on his desk & taking a sip of his coffee, breaking out a book of his own until the end of class.

1st period is over before we know & we make peace with the Harts, getting ready to say goodbye to each other in the hallway.

"Bye, Troye," Tyler walked off, but I wasn't having it.

"What, no, kiss me hard before you go," I grab his waist, pulling him towards me.

"Summertime Sadness?" He laughed, putting his arms around me before placing a small kiss on my lips.

"You know me so well," I kissed him a few more times because I'm unhappy with the first one he gave me.

It wasn't really a kiss, he just kind of placed his lips on mine hardly for about 4 seconds before trying to leave again.

Something was wrong. Already. & we're not even together yet. Great.

"Ty, wait. What's wrong?" I grabbed his wrist to restrict him from leaving me.

"Everything's fine," He refused to look me in the eyes or just my face.

I don't believe him. I read his mind quickly before letting him go.

"I'm not sure if I'm ready for this.

I'm not sure if I can do this to him.

I don't want to hurt him."

What is this supposed to mean? I shook myself out of my thoughts to give him a small smile. "See you in 5th period?"

"Yeah. See you in 5th."

2nd period is a bore & confusing. I hate Math. I hate it, I hate it, I hate it. All I can really think about it 5th period & waiting to see Tyler again. The bell had rung & I didn't notice until Joe & Bethany were smacking me around.

"Troye, class is over, see you at lunch, I said?" Bethany shrugged her shoulders hopefully while looking over at Joe & she nibbled on her bottom lip as Joe tugged on his clothes.

"See you both at lunch, of course," I hugged them both before departing to 3rd.

Today is Thursday, so it's my first day of Drama. We did more icebreakers & all I could do is cringe. The only reason it wasn't so bad is because Grace has Drama with me. Watching her do improv is the highlight of my day, possibly my life because Grace didn't give a shit what people thought, she was always herself. & herself being the weirdest she can be. I adore her.
