Dragged In

Chapter 5

I am skating away, and I don't know where to, all I know is I'm pissed off at Horan.

I find a bench and sit down on it thinking, my chin in my hands. I decide to ring up my friend Jamie.

He answers after three rings.

"Talk to me" He greets.

"I'm coming over" I inform

"Invite yourself around, why don't you?" He laughs

"I will actually," I say back "ill be there in 10 minutes"

"Cool"

"Bye"

I hop off the bench and start skating towards his house when a Nialls car pulls up beside me and he jumps out, jogging up to me.Oh Joy.

"What do you want, Horan?" I sigh.

"I want to say I'm sorry!" He apologises. I roll my eyes and I continue on my way to Jamie's house.

"I didn't mean to say it like that I swear!" He goes on.

" I don't want to talk to you anymore Horan! You're just a prissy spoilt popstar who thinks he can get anything he wants!" I say impatiently.

"Jo I-"

"Just leave Niall" I say. But he doesn't leave, he stays there trying to keep up with me on my skateboard.

"What do you want now?" I say irritably at him.

"Where are you going?" He asks.

"I've got places to go,people to see" I say, not even looking at him anymore.

"Like who?"

"That's none of your damn business!" I say,and skate off as fast as I can so he can't keep up.

I arrive at Jamie's house 10 minutes later.

"Sup" he greets. I don't say anything back, but I make my way to the kitchen.

"What's got you cranky?" He says.

"I don't wanna talk about it" I say, rummaging though the cupboards.

"Fine by me," he shrugs, "But if you ever do, I'm here" he says

"Thanks Jamie" I say, pulling him into a hug.

Jamie and I have been friends since we were 6 years old. He did share the apartment with us, but saved up enough money to buy a house closer to the college he goes to.

I continue going through his cupboards when my lay my eyes and a chocolate cake. I take it out and cut myself a very big slice.

I grab a fork and a paper plate and walk into his living room. I slump down on his massive sofa and turn on SpongeBob SquarePants.

"God Jo you're such a child!" Jamie laughs.

"So what?" I challenge

"So what?" He mimicked back.

I roll my eyes playfully at him.

"Wait,don't you have college today?" He asks. Jamie has always been the sensible one.

"Umm no" I say unconvincingly.

"Yes you have! You've never been a good liar!" He says.

"I know" I say back in a monotone.

"You can't keep ditching Jo" he says

"Fair enough. But what do you want me to do now? Roll up back into my classroom like 'Yo teach, what's the story? Anyway I ditched but now I'm back so don't mind me!' C'mon Jamie"
