Over Again (One Direction Fanfic)

Chapter 34 No Comment

NATHAN'S POV

'Bye, enjoy your first day back!' My mom yelled as I got off of the car with a Starbucks in hand. It's been over a year since I've been here. I walk inside and see that this school hasn't changed a bit. I walk to the counselor's office only to see that it's not open yet. Hey maybe Liam's here.. Ha my morning buddy. I walk to our spot to meet one of my past teachers.

'Nate you're back!' Ms. Tran says with a smile.

'Yeah.. I guess I am' I say taking a sip of my coffee.

'The class missed you... Sadly I won't have you anymore.. Have you checked the counselors office? You need to catch up and that means you have to take Freshman years CST's' she tells me.

'Awwww are you serious?! I thought I wasn't gonna have to take it!' I exclaim.

The CST's were the state tests that we had to take every year and literally is the reason of a whole school year, to prepare for this test and now I'm supposed to remember academics from a year ago!

'Sadly yes, but you review what was on it before you take it.' She says.

'Oh okay, that's good. Thanks Ms. Tran, I already checked but it's closed but I'll come back.' I tell her.

She nods and walks into the main office.

As I walk, the band is practicing as always in their room, fluttering the air with their sounds of instruments. They were annoying throughout the year but I honestly missed it.

I see Liam sitting by himself playing with his phone.

'Hey Liam, what's up?' I ask as I approach him.

'Oh nothing, just playing candy crush.' He says.

'Addicting isn't it?' I say.

'Very' he says with a smile.

I sit down and look at the stage and see that they painted it a new color.

'When did they paint it?' I ask.

'After winter break, they wanted at least something new so they did.' He replies

'So have you talked to Danielle?' I ask.

'Um... Yeah I did.' He says in a sad tone.

'And what happened?' I ask.

'Er... It's over.'

'Oh, sorry to hear that,' I reply.

'It's alright I guess, it was the best thing to do.. Oh and she's not going to hang out with us anymore, she said she'll feel uncomfortable and besides, she wants to focus on her dance class.' He says.

' What about you? You still in football and baseball?' I say.

'Yeah, football season is over but baseball season is at it's midpoint' he says biting into an apple he pulls out of his backpack.

'When's your next game?' I ask.

'Not till next week' he says.

'We'll all be there' I say taking a last sip before throwing my drink away.

'Yeah.... Thanks. So have you heard from Zayn?' He asks me

'Yeah he arrived and he's settling in. He was gonna miss school today cuz you know, jet lag.'

'Oh he must've arrived home late then'

'Hey you want to come with me to the counselor's office? I have to check in' I say.

'Yeah I'll go, I need to talk to my counselor about my grades so yeah.' He says throwing his apple in the trash.

I smile and we walk to the counselor's office.
