Leah's POV

When we arrived home, I was so happy. Finally I was home again! I let my bags fall to the ground and fell backwards onto the couch. I sighed in relieve.

T locked the door and came to sit next to me. She pulled me closer and kissed me. "I've missed you so much."

"I told you a day and a night was way to long to be separated from each other." I said, kissing her again.

She smiled. "Yes, you're right. Don't leave me anymore."

"I wish I shouldn't have to leave every weekend." I said, looking down.

T took my chin and made me look at me. "Hey," she said, caressing my face. "We'll be living together later, don't worry."

I sighed. "But that's so long."

T laughed a little. "We don't have to rush things, do we?"

I smiled.

T smiled too and turned on the tv, watching some tv show. I took my laptop and wrote some more. At this point, I had several books published and one completed. I was happy that people liked what I was writing.

I was also talking to this girl, she really was a nice girl. We talked about each other's lives. I knew her name and she knew mine. She also knew I was dating a teacher, which was a relieve to me. Because I could finally talk about it to someone.

After awhile, we both got ready for bed. How I've missed laying in her arms, I love sleeping close to T. She'd always hug me, and I'd hug her. Our legs intertwined, so our bodies were close together.

"How did you sleep last night?"

I looked at her, she probably asked because of my fear. "It was alright."

She raised her eyebrows. "You weren't scared?"

I looked down, I knew she wasn't going to like my answer. "Cam helped me."

T pulled back so she could look at me. "Cam?" I nodded. "Why was Cam in your bed? At night?"

I sighed deep. "She stayed over." I said. "But I swear nothing happened."

She smiled and kissed me soft. "It's alright, I trust you."

I smiled too. I nuzzled my head in her chest and scooted closer to her. I was going to sleep so good tonight! "I love you, T."

"I love you too, Leah." she said, kissing my head. "Sweet dreams."

"Sweet dreams." I said, kissing her lips one more time.

The next day was school... I hate school, the only thing good about it is seeing T, and my friends. Right now, all they were talking about was Cam's birthday party, which was tomorrow.

"I'm so excited for that party, Cam!" Kara said, smiling big.

"Yeah, me too. You're inviting a lot of girls, right?" Kevin asked, smiling.

Cam laughed. "Only everyone I know." she said before wrapping her arm around my neck. "But the most important person is right here."

"Aww!" my friends said in unison.

"You two are so cute!" Sally said to which they all nodded.

"Remind us, why did you two broke up?" Kara asked to which I rolled my eyes.

"You all know why." I said, huffing.

"Oh alright. Have you at least bought your amazing 'friend' a perfect birthday gift?" Sally asked.

I smiled. "Of course, I have." I hope she's going to love it, it was hard finding something for Cam. Before I'd always give her something romantic, and now I had to find something friendly. Something that she wouldn't interpreter as more.

"Don't worry, love, everything you give me is perfect." Cam said, kissing my cheek.

"Cam, for the hundredth time, I'm not your love!" I said through gritting teeth.

"Yeah, sure." she said, but continued kissing my cheek.

All day we were together, talking about the party. I was actually excited for it.

Almost as excited as seeing T again. We had Math now, I couldn't wait seeing her smiling beautiful face.

I smiled as I waited for her to enter the classroom. Everyone else was talking again, laughing, just being annoying actually.

After awhile T was still not here, which made me wonder where she was. I looked outside and that's when I saw her, finally entering the classroom.

She walked to the front and sat down, not even looking up. She buried her face in her hands, and stayed like that.

No one noticed because they were all disrespectful and ignoring her, but to me that sight was heartbreaking. How I just wanted to go to her and hug her, kiss her, hold her, ask her what's wrong.

I kept looking and finally she stood up. "Alright class, exercises page 25. Make them and hand them in, and no teamwork or talking or you just get a 0." she said and sat down again.

My jaw dropped, why would she do this? She always told me whenever we'd have a test so I could practice. She knew I had difficulties with Math, a lot of difficulties actually.

Everyone groaned and huffed, but started working. At least they could work, I just sat there, not knowing how to even start these exercises.

I looked at T, trying to catch her gaze, but she wouldn't look up. She was busy on her phone.

Eventually, after 20 minutes, some students handed their exercises in and left. T finally looked up and right at me. I had expected a sympathetic smile, but all I got was a cold stare. She looked at me as if she hated me.

I gulped and looked down, trying to make these damn exercises.

Eventually I ended up being the last one in that classroom. I looked at T, hoping to talk to her. "T, why would you - "

"No talking!"

I was taken back by her behavior. I looked at her, in shock, but she didn't even look at me. "T, please, just talk - "

"Alright, enough." she said and walked to me. She took my exercises and marked it with a big 0. "I said no talking!" she said, went to her desk, collected all her things and left.

I sat there, in shock. What was wrong with her?

I took my page of exercises and sniffled. I had a 0. Even though I hadn't expected to get anything else... It still hurt to see her like that to me...
