Fairytales Aren't Real

0.4

(A/N) This is how i imagine Leo^^ Isn't he cute??? :) 

The rest of my day went by pretty quickly, I didn't run into Hayes after lunch and I only have one newly forming bruise from Nash's "gang"

Thankfully I'm back at Gina's now, sitting in the safety of a bed. Not my bed but Cameron's, which I actually prefer over my own.

Everyone else was a sleep but naturally I wasn't. I always seem to have a hard time falling asleep. I've been sitting here for almost 2 hours now, just thinking. It's a good think it's Friday because I wouldn't be able to get up tomorrow morning.

I'm not gonna lie, I'm not feeling well. I don't mean I have a cold, I just feel like shit. You know those days where you just have an empty feeling? Yeah that's kinda what I feel like.

It's not a fun feeling but I guess you get used to it.

I sit there for a little while longer before deciding to text Cameron.

Text conversation

Leah: Stole you bed, hope you don't mind :)

Cameron: I figured you would :P how's it going?

Leah: Could be better, but you know, hbu?

Cameron: Sry your down :(

Leah: why?

Cameron: I don't think collage is for me

Cameron: sry Hun, gotta go, Shawn's making me record something for him ttyl bye <3

Leah: bye Cam

End of text conversation

After a few minutes my eye lids feel heavy and I start drifting into a restless sleep.

Monday morning (1st class)

"Good morning Leah!" A voice yelled from behind me. Only two people would actually be talking to me, and that would be either Jack or Hayes.

I turn look up from my desk and there stands one and only Hayes. I glanced around to see people staring at him with bewildered looks.

"Hi Hayes..." I mumble picking at the writing engraved into my desk.

"Mind if I sit here?" He asks symbolizing to the desk next to me.

"Uh... I really don't think that's a good idea." I say looking around.

"Why? Is someone else sitting here?"

"No..." I say keeping my voice low. "Isn't your brother in this class? Why don't you sit by him?"

"Nah, he skipped today anyways." Hayes says with a shrug before sitting next to me.

The bell rings for the last time before Mr. Skiba closes the door and faces the us.

"Good morning class." Mr Skiba starts. "Today we will be starting a new project that should take the rest of the month." He pauses for a moment while everyone sighs. "Although this is a math class, this new assignment will not included equations or grids, instead it will include communicating."

Ugh... Communicating.

"And I'm not talking about threw all you technology gadgets. You will be working with the person sitting next to you."

I glance at Hayes and he sends me a smile which I attempt to return.

"I've found that this generation doesn't communicate enough. Your sitting right next to someone and yet you would rather check how many likes you got than actually talk to them."

"I want you to get to know them, and I mean really get to know them. I don't want to know their favorite color or the type of foods they like. I want you to get to know their past, meet their parents find out who they really are."

"At the end of the month I expect you to have a presentation ready to present to the class." My Skiba finishes.

Well this should be fun...

"You may get started."

"Hi partner." Hayes says with a grin set on his face.

"Uh hi." I say before taking out a notebook.

"So where should we start?" He asks also taking out a notebook. I shrug in response not really wanting to explain myself to him.

"Well first you should probably give me your phone number?" He suggests.

"Oh right." I say handing him my phone as he hands me his.

I type in my number and name before handing it back to him. Hayes takes a moment long to finish and when he does he hands it back to me with a smirk.

"Booty hunter?" I say reading the name he put in.

"Yep. That's me!"

"Uh..."

"What does someone already have that name?" He asks.

"No."

"Well then I do!" Hayes laughs.

I give home a strange look before putting my phone back in my pocket. I start doodling in my notebook blocking out everyone like I typically do, until I feel a poke on my side making me squeal.

"Hayes!" I scolded him giving him a death glare as he he just smiles innocently.

"We have to get to know each other." He says making me sigh.

"You don't have to work with me, I can just send you a list of stuff about me." I shrug.

"Noooo." Hayes whines. "You have to meet my family and I wanna meet that brother of yours. We ARE working together."

"Fine." I say rolling my eye.

"Do you want to meet up tonight?" He asks and I shrug, I had been planing on stopping back at my house to grab some more stuff. Don't tell Cam, he'd probably have a heart attack. "We could go to my house?"

I could feel my face pale at the thought of being in the same house as Nash. "Uh no, I have to do some stuff tonight..."

"Okay, tomorrow?" He asks.

"Sure. We could work at the park?" I ask and he nods. "Okay."
