YouTube: The Destiny Finder

Chapter 2

When I woke up the next morning. I woke up with an immense amount of confidence. I woke up knowing that I wouldn't get teased about not knowing about YouTube anymore and now I even have favorite youtubers. I don't know why, but YouTube is very popular at my school. I have been teased before yesterday, but yesterday was the last i could handle. I did my usual routine and then got a hold of my backpack and started walking to school. I took out my iPod and started listening to my jams! First played I Would By: Justin Bieber. I sang along as if the world was gone and it was just me in my happy place, singing my favorite song. Next, was Say You're Just A Friend By: Austin Mahone. Right when the song ended I felt something gently touch my right shoulder. I automatically panicked, rejected my earphones from my ears and got a grip of it's hand and flipped him over, as my teacher taught me in self defense class.

"OWWW!" I heard a faint grunt from the person. Shit! I recognized that voice.

"I am so sorry" I continued with a panicking voice "I panicked" I admitted.

"It's ok" he said as he was standing up. "I would've probably done the same, if I knew how to do that and I thought I was being attacked" he laughed as he dusted off the dirt from his clothes.

"Haha sorry when I panic I don't really think I just do" I whispered.

"Hey it's alright, I think it's pretty cool that a girl knows how to protect herself from danger" he said, causing my cheeks to turn bright red, as he playfully pushed me by the right shoulder

"So what are you even doing here this early I mean its a little far away from school don't you think?" I asked in curiosity.

"Mhm" he answered.

"So what are you doing here?" I questioned once again.

"Well I live right there" he said while turning back and pointing at a house surrounded by brick, that was no more than 2 minutes away from where we were right now.

"Ok... but I've never seen you walk?" I asked

"Yeah, my mom used to take me to school, but now she goes to work super early, so I have to start walking" he finished explaining.

"Oh" I simply answered. There was an awkward silence for about 5 minutes, until he broke the ice.

"So... you walk everyday" he questioned.

"Mostly, sometimes Leslie's mom gives me a ride, but I mostly walk morning and after school" I answered.

"Cool! I guess I have a walking buddy!" he exitidely exclaimed.

"I guess" I stated with a warm smile.

"You look cold" he said.

"Oh no. I'm fine" I responded.

"You sure?" he asked reassuring.

"Yes I am fine, thank you". We finally got to school after 45 minutes of talking. We walked over to our group.

"Hey guys!" he greeted.

"Hi" I said shyly (as always).

"Ummm... hi." Leslie said. I could tell she was upset by the tone of her voice.

"Is something wrong?" I asked her.

"Yeah, actually there is" she commented rudely. The whole group had there attention on Leslie, now. Marlene went up to Leslie and I and suggested we'd go to the bathroom to settle this.

"Leslie, what the hell was that?! In front of the entire group really?!" Marlene exclaimed "what's your problem anyway?"

"Nothing I just don't want Melissa hanging out with Jacob thats it" she briefly said.

"No." I said looking deep into her eyes "don't play dumb, Leslie, I have known you for a long time, something's up".

"It's just I sorta have had a crush on Jacob" she admitted.

"So this entire time, you've known your best friend has had the same crush as you and because of your jealousy you do not want your best friend to be happy?" Marlene questioned. I stepped closer to Leslie and looked in her eyes.

"Why didn't you tell me?" I asked.

"Because I knew you liked him" she responded.

"No. You like him, because I like him" I continued "remember? You took Justin, Antonio and now Jacob? What a coincidence." My blood boiled and before I knew it I did what seemed to never happen "just get out of my fucken life you fucken slut I'm done with your games!" I yelled, before swiftly walking away. I could feel someone's arm on my shoulder. I turned around finding a worried Jacob.

"Hey, you ok?" he asked me with his fragile voice.

"Umm... Yeah, I just- I really don't wanna be here right now" I stated, wiping my tears off my face.

"It's all going to be okay" he said while looking in my eyes. I was melting looking into his sweet, innocent, and gentle sole. I know I have been saying "sisters before misters", but there was something about him. I didn't care if me and Leslie weren't friends anymore. I am actually glad she won't interrupt mine and Jacob's relationship. IF WE EVER HAVE ONE.
