You're mine

Chapter 42: Liar, liar...

Talia's POV

I was so happy with that pink hoodie for my baby! When I saw it online, I just knew it was something perfect for her. I know she doesn't like pink, but I really thought the little raccoon would look so good on her! But the hoodie was only available in pink. So I bought it. And I'm so happy I did, it looks so good on her!

I was smiling big while walking towards the teacher's lounge. As I was walking, I saw my baby in the hallways. I smiled, seeing her wear that beautiful pink hoodie.

Until I saw her talking to this girl. I had never seen this girl before. That's when I remembered our conversation from yesterday. She must be Katherine, that new girl who she's friends with. I don't like her. I know I sound like a jealous girlfriend, but I just feel like something isn't right here.

I watched them closely and saw my baby blush! She was blushing in front of Katherine! I felt some anger rise inside me but didn't storm to them, I trust my baby.

They talked a little and that's when they both nodded and Katherine left. What just happened? I was so curious to know!

When I saw Cam and her other friends appear, I left. I knew my baby was safer with them than with Katherine. Although I'm doubting if Leah's really that much safer around Cam...

I got to the teacher's lounge and sat down with my friends. "Hey girls." I said as I took the cup of coffee Heather had prepared for me.

"Hey Talia, how are you doing?" Heather asked me, smiling.

I smiled as well. "I'm fine, what about you?"

Heather looked to Mary and Charlotte before looking back at me. "We're fine as well, but now other things." she started to which I raised my eyebrows. "When do we get to meet your girlfriend? It's been 2 years, Talia!"

I rolled my eyes. "Not again! Come on, there are way more important things in life than you all meeting my baby!" I said, even though my baby's the most important thing in the world to me.

They all leaned back in their chair and crossed their arms, looking at me, obviously waiting for me to talk.

I rolled me eyes. "Fine, behave like little kids." I said and got up, leaving to my classroom.

Leah's POV

When school was done, I waited at the school's entrance for Kat, like we had agreed on.

I looked around, seeing most people leave to their home. Some went by foot, others with their bike, a few with their parents with their car...

That's when my eyes widened, I haven't told T yet!

I quickly took my phone and called her. While I was waiting, I wondered what I was going to say, because she didn't want me near Kat.

"Baby?"

I smiled instantly when I heard her voice. "Hey baby, I'm just calling to tell you that you don't have to wait for me."

There was a silence. "Why not?"

Here it was: the choice. Was I going to tell her the truth and tell her I was going away with Kat, or was I going to lie and tell her something else? I gulped. "I'm going out with my friends." Right after I had said that, I felt so much guilt. I never lied to T.

"Ok, have fun."

Alright, right now I felt so guilty! "Yeah." I said soft, I felt really ashamed of myself. "I'll see you tonight, bye baby, I love you."

"I love you too, baby, keep me updated please."

I nodded, even though she couldn't see it. "Bye." I hung up and sighed deep, why have I lied?

"Hey Leah."

I gasped, but calmed down when I saw Kat. "Kat, you scared me!"

She chuckled a little. "Come on, let's go." she said and hooked arms with me. We walked to a nice restaurant. She let me sit down and sat down afterwards. 

We looked into the menu for awhile, not looking up at each other.

"Good day, Misses, have you decided what you're getting?" the waitress asked.

I looked up and gulped, that waitress looked good. But of course T looked better.

"Yes, we have." Kat said as she motioned to me so I could order first.

"Just a salad for me." I said and put the menu down.

Kat raised her eyebrows, as if she couldn't believe what she was hearing. "For me a nice spaghetti." she said, already licking her lips.

"Alright, I'll be right back with your orders." the waitress said, smiled and left.

I watched her walk away, she really did look good. But I have the best fiancee ever.

"You love watching ladies, Leah?"

I adverted my gaze to Kat. "There's nothing wrong with looking and admiring a beautiful lady."

Kat smiled and let her head rest onto her hands, her elbows were resting onto the table. "I agree." she said and kept looking at me. "So, are you dating someone?"

I looked at Kat, eyebrows raising. "Why do you need to know?"

Kat shrugged. "I'm just curious."

I nodded. "Alright... Uhm..." What was I supposed to say? That I was dating a teacher? No, of course not! Maybe I could just say I was dating someone,  but not say more, but she'll definitely ask more... I looked at her, right in the eyes. "No, I'm not dating anyone."

She smiled, she seemed to like my answer. "Good to know."

I nodded and looked around, not really knowing what else to say.

"So, tell me, why is a girl as beautiful as you single?" she asked, smiling.

I smiled as well, she was very nice. "I don't know." I said, I wasn't single so I couldn't really answer her. "What about you?" I asked, trying to get the attention of me.

She smiled, there was something in her eyes. "I'm single as well."

Suddenly the waitress returned with our orders and drinks. "Enjoy your meal." she said, smiled and left.

I smiled at Kat. "Enjoy your meal." I said and wanted to eat but she stopped me.

"Wait," she said and took her glass of soda. She motioned me to take mine as well and so I did. "Let's toast."

"On what?"

She smiled. "To us."

I smiled as well. "To us." and we toasted.
