Save Me (A Chandler Riggs Fanfic)

Chapter 12

Suddenly I remember what Katelyn said before I got on the plane back in Miami. "You better find a guy and bring him back with you!" I want Chandler to be that guy. So badly. "Hello! Did you die?" Chandler says waving his hand in my face. "Yes... I mean no. No I didn't." Damn it Fayth. "Are you new here?" Chandler asks without losing eye contact. "Yes. I came here from Miami." "Cool! That's not too far away. Did you fly or drive?" He is so freaking attractive. "I flew. I-I flew." "I'll be glad to show you around campus if you'd like." "Okay!" I said a little louder than anticipated. "I would ask if you're ready but I don't think I need to." He chuckles "Let's go." We start walking towards the cafeteria and Chandler starts to sing a little. "Do I look lonely? I see the shadows on my face people have told me I don't look the same..." Without realizing I join in. "Maybe I've lost weight I'm playing hookie. With the best of the best put my heart on my chest so you can see it to." He stops but I continue. "I'm walking the long road watching the sky fall the lace in your dress tangles my neck. How do I live?" Chandler starts to scream the lyrics. "THE DEATH OF A BACHELOR OH! LETTING THE WATER FALL! THE DEATH OF A BACHELOR OH! SEEMS SO FITTING FOR..." I decide to scream with him. "HAPPY EVER AFTER OH! HOW COULD I ASK FOR MORE? S LIFETIME OF LAUGHER AT THE EXPENSE OF THE DEATH OF A BACHELOR!!" "So I take it you like Panic! At The Disco?" I ask him. I'm starting to get less awkward. "Panic is my life!" He screams looking towards the ceiling. "Aside from the screaming you're pretty good." He says with a laugh. "Thanks. I really only sing in the shower." I want this boy. He stops at the doors of the cafeteria and looks at me. "You're pretty cool Fayth." He takes out a pen and starts writing on my hand. "Maybe we could hang out sometime." I look down at my hand to see that he wrote his number. Katelyn is going to love this. "Okay." I say with a smile. As we go into the cafeteria Chandler points at a table and says "That is where you will sit." "Why?" I ask "Well I looked at your schedule and I see we have the same lunch so you're sitting with me." He says smiling at me. This boy. I want him. "Okay." I agree. He continues to show me around the school. He shows me where my classes are and I could tell he wasn't ready to leave. My phone starts to ring so excuse myself and answer it. "Hey!" I hear Aunt Jen's voice through the speaker. "Are you ready." "Oh.... Yeah!" I say with a little regret. "Good because I'm already here." She hangs up before I can say anything. "Do you have to leave?" Chandler asks. "Yeah...." "Darn... Wale. I'll walk you to your car." "Okay." The walk to the car was quiet and awkward. Once we got there he opened the car door for me. I can tell Aunt Jen wants to say something but she keeps it back. "Hey thanks!" I say with a huge grin. As we start to drive off and Chandler yells "Text me!" All I can do is look at Aunt Jen and say "I think I've caught feelings."
