How Can I Ever Get Past This

How Can I Ever Get Past This Chapter 4

Chapter 4

I woke up this morning drowsy. Kaylin had woke me up earlier to tell me that he was leaving because his coach wanted them to come in for an early practice. I didn't like his coach. I felt like he worked them entirely too much just for high school football. He was probably going to make Kaylin run like hell for missing practice yesterday. I began my day by hopping in the shower, hoping that the steaming water would have an effect in waking me up.

After finishing my shower I went into my closet and assembled myself in what I had planned on wearing for the day ahead. Afterwards I grabbed a quick breakfast and my keys and headed off into school.

I pulled into school about ten minutes later. I made my way directly to the classroom. I was tired and didn't feel like being bothered. I just wanted to be still asleep in my bed. Today was going to be such a drag.

 I walked in the cafeteria looking for Kay after my first three classes. I couldn't spot him anywhere. I wondered where he was. Hopefully his coach was not making them have practice during lunch today to.

I walked by the lunch lines and saw him nowhere. Ugh, where is he? I walked around the school forgetting about lunch altogether to look for him. None of the players were on the fields so I knew that they weren't practicing. I spotted Nate walking down the hall and decided to ask him.

"Nat?" I called out. "Have you seen Kaylin?" I asked him.

"Nah, why?" He replied.

"I just can't find him" I stated.

"Nah, I haven't seen him but I can be there for you if you're looking for a quick fix" He said. I looked at him confused then eventually I got it. I rolled my eyes in disgust and walked away. This is why I didn't like him. If Kaylin knew he talked to me like this they wouldn't even be friends .I don't even know why I asked him. I had no clue why anyone like him. Why him and Kaylin were friends? I don't know! Why did Andrea have a crush on him? I don't know!

I started back walking down the hall. He ran after me and grabbed my wrist. I turned around to face him.

"What do you want?" I said clearly not in the mood. He pulled my arm and pinned me against the wall.

"Come on Sydney you know you want me to do you, I'll make you go crazy" He whispered in my ear. Was he serious?

"You wish you had this, now get away from me"  I said sternly. He backed off with a smile on his face as I began to walk away. He was too cocky for his own good. He needed to drop his ego.

The bell rang startling me. Had I really been looking for Kaylin that long?  Nate took up a portion of my time. I pulled my phone out and texted Kaylin.

Send: Where R U

I started walking to my fourth period. I had that class with mostly football players, but Kaylin wasn't in there. How ironic. I definitely didn't want to go now with what just happened with Nate because he just happened to be in this class.

 I walked inside the sports medicine class and Nate looked at me and made an evil grin. I just rolled my eyes and sat down. Mr. Wilson announced that we would be having a project and that we would have pairs. We had to go to a Pharmacy and ask for a prescription that was frequently prescribed for athletes, and then we had to do a whole bunch of other unnecessary busy work.

He began calling out the pairs. "Chris and Taylor. Josh and Tammy. Miles and Kayla. Nate and Sydney," What? You have got to be kidding me! Did I seriously just get paired with him? I looked Nate and he blew a kiss at me before chuckling. I didn't see anything funny. I was mad. To make things worse the project was do in a week, which meant I had to spend all my damn time with him trying to get this damn project done. I was so ready for this day to end.

"The rest of the class you'll be with you partner planning your project" Damn Mr. Wilson give me a break. Nate came and sat next to me.

"So we need to get a good grade on this project so let's go ahead and start" he said  

"Okay I guess we can go to the pharmacy today after school, so we can go ahead and get the meds and then we'll go from there" I stated.

"Sounds good but I have practice, so we would have to go afterwards." He stated.

"Okay I will meet you after practice at the school."   I told him.

I woke up and looked at my cell phone. I had taken a nap after school to catch up on my rest.  I was just so exhausted. Kaylin still had not texted me back. What the hell was going on? I was starting to get a little worried about him. I looked at the clock and noticed  that it was ten after six-thirty. The football players had gotten out of practice twenty minutes ago. I knew that Nate would  be complaining. I quickly made my way out of bed and cleaned up before heading to the school.

When I pulled up Nate was waiting for me by his car. I knew he was going to have something smart to say, so I rolled my eyes preparing for his bullshit.

"Sydney its cold as fuck and you got me waiting for you?" He complained.

"Here get in the car its warm"  I said to him

"Give me your number!" He demanded once he had gotten in and shut the door

"What?" I questioned

"Give me your number, we're working on a project together so I need your number, I couldn't call you when you were late because I didn't have your number"

"Whatever its 555-732-8976, here put yours in my phone" I said as I handed him my phone.

I began to drive to the pharmacy. I saw him reach out for my Ipod and he changed the song. I ignored him not wanting to start an argument. This was going to be a long night
