Amanda's P.O.V

"I suggest we skip school." James said after a moment if silence.

"Are you crazy? You've been to school twice..what's your excuse?" I looked at him funny.

"I called in and said you were sick." He smiled.

"YOU WHAT?" I shouted covering my mouth quickly after. "You what?" I whispered.

"I woke up when you first started to harass me-" i rolled my eyes as he gave me a cheeky smile,"-which was around six,so I waited an hour called using a deeper -more imitating voice and said that you wouldn't show up for school."

"What about you?" I asked.

"I'm fine don't worry." He assured.

"Well-" I heard the front door shut."-were free for a day."

"Cool. Let's watch Netflix and eat junk food." He smiled.

"How 'bout you go home and I stay and relax." I pushed him to the door.

"Fine,but you'll get bored and call for me later." He smirked and walked out.

-

The rest of the day went like this. I tried to shower off his scent that I was kinda fond of to be honest. Then I ate while reading A Walk to Remember.

What sucked the most was..I did get bored. It was nice to relax for a while,but as the minutes ticked by, I got bored.

So I rang him.

"Got bored didn't ya?" I don't even have to see him to know he has a smirk on his face.

"Unfortunately." I sighed.

"So,why call me?"

Why did I call him? Out of all people I called James. I could have called Sarah,lord knows she'd run out of school in a heart beat.

"I-I don't know." I stuttered.

"Open the door please." He said.

I ran to the door running out of breath the moment I reached it.

"Exercise of the year." I huffed.

Composing myself I opened the door revealing a happy James. He smiled and walked past me.

"Hello idiot" I closed the door locking it.

"Afternoon,bitch." He went to my kitchen.

I followed close behind watching him rummage through my cabinets.

"Need help finding something?" I asked

Don't touch my food..

"Chips.." He hummed.

I walked next to him reaching up to a high cabinet. I struggled to grab the bag of chips, I stood on my toes stretching as far as I could. I was about to give in when I felt hands on my waist and I was lifted a little higher and I was able to get a grip on the bag.

A giggle escaped my lips and I coughed trying to cover it. His hands were still on my hips as I opened the bag. He remained silent behind me causing me to grow curious to why he hadn't let go.

"Soda?" He asked his voice some-what,deeper?

"Yes." My voice was quieter.

Then it happened.

"Here,babe." He handed me a can.

I gripped the can stilling watching him do the same. "Uh,force of habit.." He lied.

"You usually lift girl up then call them babe?" I teased trying to lighten the awkward mood.

He sighed grateful and chuckled saying, "no you'd be the first, I meant I call everyone babe."

"Every girl.." My throat tightened.

What is this? The growing feeling in my stomach. The crave for his attention, am I growing...feelings?

GOD NO!

"You jealous?" He smirked.

"You wish." I walked back into the living room feeling his eyes on me.

"M'kay..jealous." He snickered.

"I'm not jealous!" I jumped attacking him.

He laughed at my stupid attempt and threw me over his shoulder." Hey! Put me down!" I groaned.

"Whatever you say!" He shrugged flopping me onto the couch.

"Hey!" I stuck my leg out tripping him as he tried to walk past me.

"AAH!" He fell to the floor taking me with him by grabbing my shirt.

We stayed there,on the floor. Me laying on top of him while a movie played in the background. He ran a hand through my messy hair and stared at me,I couldn't help,but do the same to him.

My head was screaming at me to get off,move before you do something stupid. My heart thumped way too fast showing me that I have feelings,and maybe I'm not numb to pain.

Soon enough he leaned in,as I leaned in to meet his lips I felt a shock of electricity go through me as our lips brushed.

"Am I interrupting?" A familiar voice chuckled.

"You've got to be fucking kidding me." I groaned,James chuckled underneath me and I slowly raised my head up and met a pair of dark brown eyes.

"Hello to you too.." Sarah chuckled.

I got up realizing what was happening.

"It's not what it looks like." I nervously laughed.

"It's exactly what it looks like." James stood up.

"Shut up!" I squeaked embarrassed.

Was I about to kiss James? Was I about to do the impossible-no,the unthinkable.

I hate James.

I hate him.

You hate him?

Yes I do

Or you love him?

Yes I do-wait! I hate him.

"Having fun there?" James chuckled.

I glared at him as he became more distant. "I'm heading out. See ya around..I guess."

What?

"What?" Sarah said.

James left without another word and I looked at Sarah. She shrugged turning the t.v on.

"Well,shit." She shook her head.
