Jack

I really didn't want to go to school today. I really didn't want to see Miles after everything that happened yesterday. Did he like me? If he didn't why on earth would he kiss me then?

The second I walked into school I wanted to leave. Lilly was no where to be seen, I hadn't heard from her since yesterday. 

"Jack" Emily scheeched as soon as I walked into our Biology classroom. I sighed and walked over to her, me, Emily and Lilly all have Biology together. "Hey" I mumbled sitting beside her. "I missed you so much " She said hugging me. I frowned, "I saw you yesterday?" I said confused. "Thats too much time" she whinned, finally letting go of me. 

Before we could say anything else the teacher walked in, with a good looking boy following her. "Okay, we have a new student today, his name is Nicholas, introduce yourself". 

"Uhh, hi my names Nicholus, I'm from New york" he said, he walked over to the only free seat which was at the front of the room. "Ooo, he's cute" Emily whispered into my ear. I snorted loudly. "Mr Wilson do you have anything you want to share with the class?" the teacher asked angrily. "Uh, I had pizza for dinner last night, it was really good" I said, looking at her innocently. She sighed and shook her head. 

About 10 minutes into class Lilly walked in. "Ms Young you are very late" the techer, Mrs Smith, said. "I know, I'm sorry miss" Lilly said, before walking over to her seat. 

Before I knew it was lunch already, I knew that I would see Miles and I was definitely not ready for that. When I walked into the cafeteria my eyes instantly found him. He looked over at me and quickly averted his gaze. 

I sighed and walked over to our usual lunch table. "Hey" I said, sitting down. They all greeted me back, "Have you guys seen the new guy today?" Emily asked Kai and Noah. They shook their heads. "He is soo hot" she said, giggling. I rolled my eyes and laughed. 

Emily kept on talking about Nicholas. I spotted him walk in and look around, he clearly hadn't made any friends yet. "He just walked in" I said, absentmindedly. "What!" Emily screeched. She turned around to luck at him, she quickly waved him over and he came over looking very confused. 

"Hi" he said, he looked nervous. "Hey, do you wanna sit with us" Emily asked, excitedly. "Okay, thanks" he said, taking a seat. "Me, Jack and Lilly are in your Biology class" Emily stated. "Cool" he mumbled, looking down at the table. 

I had this sick feeling in my stomach, just looking at the food made me want to puke. "I'll be back in a second" I said standing up quickly. I didn't wait to hear a response before walking out of there. I went to the nearest bathroom and ran to the toilet, quickly locking the stall behind me. 

I started to vomit up everything I had eaten all day. I hated this. This whole week I had been feeling even worse then most days. 

I sat on the floor leaning against the toilet, feeling too weak to stand up. I heard a knock on the door, I froze. "Jack?, You okay?" A very fimiliar voice asked. "Miles?" I asked. "Yeah, its me" he responded. 

I stood up weakly and opened the door. "Hey, you okay, I heard you getting sick" he said his voice soft. I nodded weakly, I went to walk out of the stall but I stumbled. "Woah" Miles said, catching me. "I think I should take you home". "Okay" I mumbled, not having the energy to argue. 

We walked out of the school together. I awakardly got into is car and we started driving back to my house. 

Miles 

"So, how are you?" I asked. Wow Miles, real smooth, seriously that's the most basic thing I could have said. "Uh I'm okay" Jack responded softly. 

He looked terrible, not to be mean, but he had dark circles under his eyes and seemed very weak, and his eyes, which are usually a bright piercing green are now dull and lifeless, he looked... sad. 

The rest of the car journey was filled with an awkard silence. We FINALLY reached his house, after what felt like hours of tension. We went upstairs to his bedroom. we both sat nervously on his bed. 

"So, um about yesterday, I'm sorry for leaving so aburtly" I said. "It's okay, you probley don't even like me" He mumbled. I froze I didn't know how to respond to that, did I like him? 

"I- I like you" I said softly, staring at the floor. His head shot up, "What?" he asked. "Really?" I nodded, meeting his eyes. I smiled at him and he smiled back. I leaned forward to kiss him when he stopped me, "My breath probley tastes like puke" he said, chuckling. "Oh yeah, hey are you okay, why were you getting sick?" I asked softly. 

"Oh uh, I just didn't feel well today" he mumbled looking down his smile vanishing. I nodded and nervously reached out and took his hand in my. We sat there for a few minutes in a comfortable silence. 

"I should uhh probably go brush my teeth" he said. I nodded and chuckled. 


A/N

Ahh a little bit of fluff in there. This song once again has nothing to do with the chapter I just have been listening to it all day. I love Euphoria.

Also if I was to write a spin off of this book, which character would you like it to be about?

Because I want to start planning ahead for the book before I get to lazy and decide not to write one.
