Living With a Sweetheart

❦20

I woke up, with my arms hanging off of the couch. I moaned, and sat up. This time, I had to go to school sitting by the boy that I used to be with.

Getting dressed, my phone started to vibrate on my desk. It was Winter. "Hello?" I spoke. "Hey. Uh, so you guys broke up?" Winter asked. "Oh my god Winter—" "Hey, I just want to know girl."

"Well sometimes things are worth not talking about, Winter. I'll see you at school," I sternly said. She hung up after, and I headed downstairs.

I didn't care about breakfast right now, I just walked out of the house. The bus came, and I hopped in. "Hey," Winter said, as I sat down next to her. I waved. "So... You two broke up?" Winter firstly asked. "Does everything we talk about have to involve me?" I mumbled, slouching back into the seat.

"No, I just wanna know if you did," Winter said, crossing her arms in front of her chest. "Yes, I did. Okay?"

Glory and Sandy overheard your conversation, and looked over at you. They started to giggle. "Wait until we tell Janice! She's going to be like, so happy, and like, totes going on sweet seat with Lucas. Oh my gosh!" Glory said, making hand gestures.

"Hey, Lucas hates Janice! She's a bratty princess that deserves to fall in a load of mud!" I yelled, stomping my foot as I glared at them. They sat in silence, and then laughed.

Winter placed her hand on my shoulder, as I gained my calmness again. "Let's go, we're here," I said, grabbing my backpack and hopping off of the bus.

Winter followed behind me. I saw Grace starting to walk inside the school. "Grace!" I yelled, running with Winter towards her. "Hey girl!" She spoke, hugging me. "I am so sorry for that incident with Lucas," she sorrowful spoke. "Thanks.." I whispered.

Then, someone grabbed me from behind. I turned around, and before I could observe their face, lips touched mine. I heard Grace laughing with Winter, which I was confused about. Shouldn't they make this random stranger stop? That is, if it's... A random stranger—wait a second.

It was Lucas.

I pushed him away from me immediately, glaring at him. "Hey, what's up?" He asked scratching his head. "Hello Lucas, shouldn't you be in class?" I asked him, continuing my glare. "Listen, now that everyone's inside and we're the only ones out here, I wanna ask you something," Lucas said, placing his hands on my waist.

"We secretly date!" He said, smiling. "Are you joking?" I said, escaping his arms. "No..." He said, raising an eyebrow. "That's crazy talk, do you see how much drama would happen?!" I yelled. "It would cause no drama! Because it's secret!" Lucas said, convincing me. I stood there, with my hand on my neck. "Fine."

"Great!" Lucas said, grinning. "But, I heard on the bus that Janice is going to be hosting a sweet seat with you," I informed him. "Great.." He said sarcastically.
