Let's Be Real// Christian Akridge FanFic

Chapter 8

The project was actually going pretty good, I mean Christian still didn't help very much, but he helped more then the last time...and I think he's growing on me, like he's actually really funny and maybe not as big of a jerk as I thought.

We finished up the whole project on Thursday, and by this time honestly I'd say we're kinda friends. Like I guess you'd say we're in good terms.

The next day I woke up and got ready. I decided to wear some light wash jeans and a big plane white pullover. I straightened my hair and applied my normal makeup. After went down stairs and ate my breakfast and waited for the bus.

It came and I said bye to my parents and hopped on. I started looking for Sarah and I couldn't find her and the only empty seat was beside Christian, so I sat down next to him.

"Ready for the presentation?" I asked him. "I guess so, but your doing most of the talking" he said sounding a little nervous. "Don't worry I will" I said letting out a little laugh.

We got to school and went out spectate ways. I didn't see Sarah at school either, so I texted her.

Me- Sarah were r u!
Sarah- I'm sickkk :(((
Me- Ughhhh :(((

It was a rough day with out her, I didn't know what to do because this was the first day that I haven't been with her.

English came and it was almost our turn to go up for our presentation and I could see that Christian was really nervous. He looked a little pale and shaky. "Are you okay?" I asked him, "yeah just a little nervous" he said, "aren't you like a viner though? Don't you perform like all the time?"
"Well yeah, but that's different, I'm not getting graded on that and I'm with all my friends." "Well...I'm your friend" he shot up his head after I said that and looked at me and smiled.

The teacher called our names and we went up. I did most of the talking...well, all of the talking. We finished and I think it went pretty well.

It was last period and I couldn't stop thinking about the conversation me and Christian had. Maybe I was falling for him a little bit.

It was almost the end of the day when I got a text from Sarah.

Sarah- I have strep!
