Chapter 8:No-Show and Rain

-Arlo's POV-

I called Sebastian right after JC left. "Sebby! Guess what!" I yelled into the phone. "Arlo this is Fernando. Sebastian isn't here and the idiot left his phone at home." Fernando's voice came on from the other end of the phone. "Oh, well guess what." I said happily while plopping down onto my bed. "You and JC listened to music together for the project in music and you acted weird around him?" His guess was almost spot on. "Ok, the last part wasn't true. And what are you physic?" I chuckled.

"I'm the male That's So Raven."

"Of course you are." I laughed and he did to.

"No, actually I didn't act weird. If I say so I acted pretty freaking normal. I think I might've turned him slightly on." I told him giggling at the thought. I remembered JC's face when I started dancing to Beyonce. "Ok, Arlo, don't be ridiculous. He is a straight boy with a bunch of girls lusting after him, and he has a girlfriend. Sorry to burst your bubble." He said but didn't sound to sorry. "It's ok. I wasn't blowing bubbles to begin with." I said flatly and there was a pause on the other line. "Alright Arlo, I have to go. I'll see you tomorrow." Fernando hung up without saying goodbye and I rolled my eyes. He's so moody all the time.

I had dropped out of Art class and told the principal what Mr. Davis had done. He told me that Mr. David was fired and I was going to continue Art. I watched Mr. Perv glare at me as he left the school. Haha butt face! I walked into my first period class, taking a seat next to Fernando as usual. I thought that maybe JC would give me a smile. I thought wrong. He didn't even turn to see who had walked through the door. Imagine if I was freaking Madonna! His loss then. "Hey baby cakes." I greeted Fernando with a smile. He didn't smile back, his face was tight and it looked stupid. "You're face looks dumb like that Ferny." I just gave him a nickname. "One, call me that again and you'll be able to sneeze out of your ears. Two, Shut up." He glared at me and turned to face the board.

I didn't get to say anything though because the bell rang and the teacher began her lesson.

I kept glancing at JC throughout the entire class. At one point he turned around and scanned everyone's faces. I looked down at my notes and started scribbling down information. Act natural, act natural. I looked up. Shoot, he saw me. I quickly looked back down but every time I glanced up at him secretly he's give me weird looks. "Arlo do you have a problem?" The teacher asked and now EVERYONE'S attention was on me. I shook my head rapidly and she gave me a warning look. Frack you teacher. Frack. You.

"Grace is out sick today, and I don't think Brendan is here." Sebastian sat down across from Fernando and I. "How'd she get sick, she was fine yesterday." Fernando picked at his meat. Sebastian shrugged. I drummed my fingers on the table impatiently waiting for JC to show up. Brendan is almost always here, so I wonder what JC will do.

A couple minuets later Jewel walked into the cafeteria with JC behind her. His head was down and he was occupied with his phone. Sebastian and Fernando were in a conversation so they didn't notice the two coming up to the table. "Hey," Jewel said getting our attention. "Could we sit with you guys today?" She asked, JC was still on his phone, he didn't even glance up. "Sure." Sebastian said happily scooting over for Jewel to sit. She sat down next to him and JC sat down on the other side of Jewel.

"We had something to eat already so we're fine." Jewel said after noticing us staring at them both. "Lunch just started though." I frowned and JC put his phone away. "Brendan's still with Grace." He said and our attention turned to him. "What? Why is Grace with Brendan?" Sebastian asked. Fernando straightened as I was just curious. "They ditched school together. What lie did she tell you?" Jewel asked. Her hair was curly today. "Who said she lied." Fernando glared at Jewel and she only smirked. "You didn't know where she was," Jewel licked her lips and Fernando was about to say something before I cut in. "So how about this weather?" They gave m weird looks, I was just trying to change the subject.

"It's raining outside." JC said flatly and I looked out the window. "Fudge nuggets," I swore under my breath. "I walked here today." I whined and hit my forehead with the palm of my hand. "I have to go to your house today anyway, so you can just ride with me." JC said flatly. He didn't smile or offer a friendly look. He was just...JC, expressionless, hard to read, JC. Stupid idiot. "It's raining cats and dogs out there." Sebastian commented while bitting into his sandwich. "Please don't say that." I shook my head and covered my ears with my hands, shaking my head. "What's so bad, it's an expression." Jewel looked confused and somewhat amused. "It's a horrible expression," I snapped at her opening my eyes. "The last thing I want to think about is cute little cats and dogs falling from the sky. I don't want to hear their body's slamming onto the roof of my house. That's fucking horrible." I said.

"So we'd going to continue the song thing?" I asked climbing into JC's car. I he door as I got in, and he did the same starting the car. "Yeah, and if we don't find one we'll go to my house tomorrow and do it." He answered and pulled out of the parking lot. "Hey, could we listen to music?" I asked already turning I his radio. The first song that came on, he groaned and reached to change it. I slapped his hand away and he almost growled at me. "I like this song," I told him then started to sing along. "Hey, I just met you, an this is crazy, but here's my number, so call me maybe. And all the other boys try to-"

The song changed. I looked at JC to find a smirk on his face as he stared at the road. Some rap song thing came on, I had no idea who it was. But in the beginning some guy said 'Two Chains'. "Why is he talking about Two chains? What does that have to do with the song?" I asked and JC chuckled shaking his head. "His stage name is Two Chainz." He told me and I sat back in my seat.

'No lie, no lie, no li-i-ie. r-real say work, they ain't never told no lie they ain't never told no lie', what song was this? I don't know how JC could listen to this crap. It was annoying. All they did was talk fast, that is technically what rapping is. "This is giving me a headache," I told him. He sighed and turned off the radio. I could feel the blood pumping in my head, I'll take some medicine when I get home.

"So tomorrow I'm going to you're house, how?" I asked him. "I can take you." He said and turned down my street. "All right." I said quietly. I felt sort of bad. He was driving me everywhere as if he was my chauffeur. I have a car of my own that does work, but me being a selfish bitch won't drive anywhere because I like being with JC. More then I probably should.

He parked in my driveway and we both got down. I unlocked the door to my house, and we both out our backpacks on the floor by the couch. "Do you want anything to eat? We hav chips and cookies. Unless you're a healthy dude, then we have nothing for you." I told him opening the pantry in the kitchen. "I'm a healthy guy, I play sports so I have to be." He said as I got onto my tippy toes to get a bag if chips. "You keep saying "we", but all I see is you here." JC told me as we walked up the stairs and into my room. I didn't answer him because I never really liked to think my parents were gone. It made me almost feel abandoned. I'm in this house all by myself and...it gets lonely. "Are you ok?" JC asked as I sat on the floor by my bed. I nodded and got out my phone. "Ready to do this?" I looked up at him threw my lashes. He smiled and sat down across from me.
