Chap 11
They exchanged numbers. It had been two weeks. Andrew couldn't be happier but Oliver was worried. He was in too deep. Heck he was in too deep when he asked his name. But Andrew seemed like a pretty decent guy but a bit lonely. He still insisted on telling himself that this had nothing to do with the boy, he just felt pity on him. But they texted everyday and Oliver wouldn't admit it but it was the highlight of his day.
When his screen lit up so did his face. He couldn't help it though. Andrew made him feel happier.
It Monday and his last subject of the day was physics. He honestly had no idea what they were learning about. To make matters worse he didn't have Eliza in this class, so he was confused and bored out of his mind.
2:23. only seven minutes till this lesson was over. He was trying to use whatever untapped magical force he had, to be able to bend spar and time. He truly would rather be at home all about himself, than in this room with people a doesn't care about.
He looked around the room, and there were a few other kids who looked like they wanted to bend space and time as well.
2:25. He groaned.
"Oliver smith!" The teachers voice caught his attention.
"Since you seem so distracted would you mind explaining Boyles law to the class?"
"Um?"
"Detention mr smith."
His dad wasn't angry. That was the first and only thing he noticed. His dad should've been furious. He had just received a detention in physics, again. Maybe it's just happened so many time that he's gotten over trying to yell at him. The drive home was incredibly tense on Oliver's part. He was just waiting for him to explode, but instead all his dad said was, "id only be mad if you were getting detentions in a subject you cared about." Maybe his dad could change from being an angry man to being understanding for once.
When they arrived home Oliver went up to his bedroom and checked his phone.
2 new messages. He caught himself string excited before he saw that they were both from Eliza. He didn't want to admit to himself that he was disappointed.
'Hey :)' 'where r u.' They read. He remembered he was supposed to meet with her after school at cinema but his detention got in the way.
'Soz Liz got a detention'
'That sucks. Soz babe :('
'My dad was cool about it tho, I'll ask I'm I can come now.'
"Dad!" He yelled downstairs. "Can I got to the cinema with Eliza ?"
"Not after that detention."
And there it was.
He texted Andrew about how unfair he thought his dad was being.
'Will this cheer you up.'
With that text was an attached image of him in his hoodie with both strings tightened so that the hood was scrunched up making the hole around his face really small. Oliver couldn't help but laugh. The picture was pretty funny.
'You look like a butthole.' He texted back
'You are a butthole' that made him laugh even harder.
Andrew made him laugh and made his day better. Maybe he wasn't so bad after all.
