I felt so stupid.
I completely over reacted in class, and embarrassed myself, and spent the 2 periods we were in that lesson curled up in James lap.
A boy I've known for 1 day. Grate

"Dee!" bella said sprinting across the class to me as a shamefully and slowly picked up my bag.
Suddenly I was wrapped in her arms, and was enveloped by her familiar sent.

"Are you okay? I didn't want to freak you out before class because I didn't know how you'd feel but I should have given you more warning, I'm so sorry." She said to me, squeezing tight.
"It's ok, your not the only one." I say, shooting James a glare, to which he gave me a knowing but sympathetic look.

"What do you mean I need his consent? I've got it written on my file that I'm allowed to sign myself out, you sign me out all the time, what's the issue now." I say arguing with the office manager.
"You have your classification now, it's not up to your parents now, it's up to your caregiver, and he has revoked that permission, he is on his way down to get you now, I'm sorry Dianna but it's out of my hands." She tells me, clearly sympathetic.
"You called him down here?" I whine, throwing my head back. "I thought we where friends Lynsey." I say shacking my head.

I make my move to leave before James can get here but the second I turn I see James through the glass waiting for me.

"You didn't have to come down here." I say walking out the office.
"Apparently I did. Your trying to leave school? Dianna you could have talked to me about it instead of mission impossible-ing out if your study hall and running down here." He says, clearly disappointed.

"You'll let me go home?" I say, getting ready to walk back into the office.

"No Dianna." He says punching In-between his eyes. "I just-I want to be here for you and help but your making it hard when your trying to leave, I know that class sucked and that I shouldn't have thrown you into that, I'm sorry. But you fell asleep in my arms, that was so nice."

I couldn't really look at james while he spoke.he definitely wasn't wrong and I definitely wasn't making his job easy, by running home.

"I'm sorry I tried to leave." I said looking at the floor.
"You don't need to be sorry Dianna, I'd just rather you ran to me instead of out the building." James said trying to sound jokey to lighten the mood.

We both stood in silence for a bit, not knowing where to go next.
"Do you really want to go home?" James said and I literally felt my eyes light up.
"Yes." I said far too quickly.
"Okay, fine I'll sign you out, then I'll drive you home." He said rolling his eyes and heading into the office, with me bouncing in behind him.

We pulled up the apartment complex and I looked over to James.
"Thank you for taking me home." I say quietly.
"Oh um your jacket-" I say pulling down the zipper, ready to hand it back over.
"Oh no no keep it." James says reaching over and zipping it back up.
"You sure?" I ask. Really I didn't want to give it back, it's a very nice jumper.

"It's yours." He says with a goofy smile.
We sat in silence for a moment before I piped up,
"Do you want to come inside?" I say looking at my hands.
"Yeah, but just for a bit, I have to go get Derik, I promised him a ride home." He says with a smile.

James stood behind me as I unlocked the door, then followed me inside and I watched as he really took in the place.

I set my bag Down on the counter and watched as James peered around dipping his head into the different rooms

I set my bag Down on the counter and watched as James peered around dipping his head into the different rooms.

"Is that your room" he said pointing to the door with the pink door frame.
"Yeah." I said, opening the fridge and pulling out the orange juice, then let out a huge yawn.

"You tired?" James said coming back out to the kitchen, and walking over to me.

"No"I say rubbing my eyes, looking at my toes.
"I think someone needs a nap..." James says walking up to me.
"No I'm fine. I slept through class earlier-" I said stopping and letting out another yawn.

"You sure? You don't wanna Lay all comfy in bed, with your teddy's and have a nap..?" He said putting his hand on the base of my neck then down my back.
"Your Really good at that.." I said getting sleepier by the second.

"I know I am." He said slipping off his shoes and jacket, then turning back to me and gently picking me up.
My legs went round his torso and my head rested on his chest, with one hand In between his and mines body's and the other on his shoulder.

"Mmm someone is tired." He mused in my ear as he walked into my room, moving my sheets and gently gliding into my bed with me still in his arms.

I woke up that afternoon to an empty bed, and a note on my nightstand.
Had to go x Text me when your up. -J

I couldn't help but smile.
Maybe I do like James treating me like a little.
