Guess the day just wants to drag on longer than any other day. The day I want it to speed up so I can go home, it does the exact opposite. I huff in annoyance when someone kicks my seat. They keep doing it and it's driving me crazy. I'm trying to finish my work so I won't have homework.

I finally figure out the way to solve this math problem and a small smile grows on my lips. It soon fades when the person kicks my seat again. I turn quickly in my seat and come face to face with the kicker. It's Vince and a frown quickly makes its way onto my lips.

"Please stop, Vince." I say tiredly. I really don't feel like arguing or anything. I'm just in a terrible mood.

"Saw you and Will are having a little problem." Vince said.

"We're fine and none of that is your business anyways." I said.

"Ethan? Really?" Vince asked. I turned in my seat and began working on my homework. I really don't want to hear his opinions anymore. Then he said those two words I never thought I would hear him say.

"I'm sorry."

I turned and face him again. My eyes brows are up and my mouth is hanging open.

"What?" I asked.

"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have tripped you and all of that." He repeated

"Why?" I asked.

"It was wrong of me."  I just stared at him and many thoughts were going through my mind right now. What has made him finally start to apologize?  Something just seemed off and so I faced my desk again and continued my homework. Vince didn't kick my seat for the rest of the hour.

  The last bell of the day rang and I let out a sigh of relief. I placed my book bag and belongings inside of my locker. Ethan came by and visited for a second before we had to leave. Ethan kissed me on the cheek and then left while I grabbed my jacket and began to put it on. I looked over and saw Will at the other end of the hall. Our eyes met and I looked away and closed my locker.

I didn't glance back at him. I can't keep getting hurt, because that's what I'm feeling right now.

Cars were rushing to get out of the parking lot so they can go do whatever they do in the afternoon. I climbed in my car and turned it on. I turned the radio to my favorite station and Perfect by One Direction came on. I'm not a huge fan, but this has to be one of my most favorite songs. I pulled out of the parking lot and then went over to Carly's because we were all going to hang out tonight.

..............

"So, what's wrong?"  Jane asked me. I was currently looking down at a magazine and can't really seem to get Will out of my mind.

"I was talking to Will today and I asked him if he was avoiding me. He snapped at me and just didn't really seem like he wanted to talk to me."  I said.

"For real, what is his deal?"  Carly asked.  I laughed a little bit because her words rhymed.

"I don't know, but it's whatever."  I shrugged.

  We continued to talk and soon I had left left to go home. When I got home I greeted my parents and decided to go out for a ride.

  Today is a beatiful day and perfect for a nice ride along the trails to relax and clear my mind. I walked to the barn and went to my horse named Bentley. He's a black and white Appaloosa. Bentley has been my horse for years now and I couldn't ask for a better horse.

I put saddle and everything on him and then climbed on. We started out in a walk but then I gently nudged his side and made a clucking sound to tell him to trot. We were like that for a few minutes before I made him walk once again.

  Up ahead there's a little stream and I hop off of Bentley to let him have a drink. Sometimes I come all the way out here and just try to get all the stress and problems out.

"What do I do?"  I asked out loud not really talking to anyone. Tears threatened to spill out, but I wiped under my eyes and sniffled to try and stop then.

  I'm mad at Will, but it just hurts. I don't want to lose him. Call me foolish, I don't care if he's ignoring me or avoiding me, but I don't want to just walk away and give up so easily.

  A stray tear went down my face and I wiped it away. If Will wants to ignore me, then oh well I guess.

I know nothing is really happening at the moment, but these past few chapters are just filler chapters so that the big event doesn't happen so quickly and the story doesn't end.
