I woke up the next day to my phone vibrating.
I looked over at it, it was a text from Grant.
'I'll be at school today!' When I read that I sat straight up.
'Really?!'
'Yep. So I'll see you there.' I was so happy when I read that.
'I'll see you there!' I sent happily.
I sat there a minute to see if he was going to text me back. He didn't, so I got up and walked into my closet.
I looked at my clothes and grabbed a black tank top, then grabbed my grey sweat shirt that's zipper is off to the side. Then I turned to my dresser and grabbed a pair of dark green jeans.
I went down stairs after I got dressed. I went to the kitchen my mom already had food on the bar.
"Hey, mom." I said as I sat at the bar in front of the food.
"Good morning. That is yours if you didn't already know that." She said as she brought me a glass of apple juice.
I ate my food pretty fast because I was so excited to see Grant.
"Did Grants mom tell you that Grant is going to school today?" I asked excitedly.
"Yes she did text me. I'm assuming Grant texted you this morning." She said with a smile.
"Yeah he did." I said as I finished my food.
I walked over to the bench were we keep our shoes. I sat down and put on and grabbed my grey converse high tops.
I walked back to the kitchen to see if my mom was ready to go.
"Are you ready?" She asked right about the time I was going to ask her the same thing.
"Yes I am."
"What about your clarinet?" She asked as she walked around the island.
"I left it at school." I said as I turned and start to walk to the door.
When we pulled up to the school. I got out of car and Said good bye. I walked in and saw Bettany standing in the office.
I stood there waiting for her to come out so we could walk together.
"Hey!" I said to Bettany as she walked out.
"Hey." She said as we started walking to the band room.
We didn't talk much on our way.
We walk into the band room. Mr. Jamison was in his office.
We got there a little later then we usually do so the bell rang right as we walked in. We grabbed our stuff, and I sat and stared at the door waiting for Grant to get here.
He walked through the door. I got up and ran up to him and gave him a big hug.
"Hey." He said as I hugged him.
"Hi." I replied.
"Well you know how much I love your hugs and all, but I kinda need to get ready for class." He said as he let go of me.
"Oh ok." I said disappointed that I didn't get to hang with him any longer.
I went back to my chair and grabbed my clarinet out of the case.
That whole class I just couldn't wait for it to be over. All I wanted to do was hang out with Grant.
After class I put my stuff away as fast as I could.
"So, how much did you miss me?" Grant asked.
"A lot." I said as we walked out of the band room.
"I missed you too." He said as he gave me a side hug as we walked.
"What are you doing after school today?" I asked hopefully.
"I have diner with my family." He said looking at me.
"Oh. Ok." I said disappointed.
"I can text you though." He said with a smile.
"Ok that sounds good." I said as we reach his class.
"Good bye, Cleo." He said as he went in his class.
"Bye." I said as I walked out of the school
