A Love To Last A Lifetime

Chapter 4- The Day Continues.

Hello guys, this chapter is only sort of a filler chapter but not every day in Jennifer's life will be interesting, we all have our boring days so please bare with me. And don't forget to read the A/N at the end of this chapter. Enjoy...

Jennifer's POV

The day that began nicely quickly turned into a boring one. After leaving Rogan at the gate of our school, I quickly went to my first block class, not because I wanted to get away from him but I really needed to escape the awkwardness that I felt after saying that we could be 'bus-buddies'.

I mean, come on I have known the guy for less than twenty four hours and I didn't want him to think of me as clingy. Because I absolutely hate it when people think of me like that.

As I came closer to my first block i.e. biology, I was surprised to find Shelby waiting near my locker, probably waiting for me.

"Hey, what are you doing here? Aren't you a tad bit early?" I asked her, my eyebrows scrunched up in confusion.

"Well, I had to meet my art sir regarding an upcoming competition."

"Ok."

"What were you doing out there?"

"Out where?"

"Outside the school gates with Rogan?"

"Uhmmm... Talking to him?"

"Ok..." she said, but knowing her since the past six years had given me enough experience to know that that wasn't what she wanted to talk about. So I asked her, "Ok, what is it?"

"You were talking to him and you looked really... uhmmm... I don't know but the expression on your face was like awestruck sort of and I am really worried about..."

"About what?" I asked, her questions were doing nothing to decrease the annoyance I was feeling.

"About your relationship with Aaron."

"Why are you worried about that? Rogan is just my bus- buddy, he used to travel with me all this time and I didn't even know about it! I mean, how could I not notice him?"

"Look at you, notice him? You are not even supposed to look at other boys for Pete's sake!"

" Why am I not even supposed to look at him?"

"Coz you are in a relationship..." she said in a 'duh' tone.

"Look it's not like I am cheating on Aaron, besides I am just being friendly to an overly gorgeous boy with the most beautiful, chocolatey eyes that I could stare into for iternity..." I trailed off, only to be interrupted by Shelby.

"You never talk like that about Aaron. I know where this is headed, just take care Jennifer."

"Just because your boyfriend cheated on you doesn't mean that I'll do the same with Aaron!"

I stormed off in my class and sat on a window seat. Thank God, it was biology, that meant I could take my mind off of this stuff. How could Shelby talk to me like that? She knew how much I hated cheating. That had ruined my entire life.

Even if in the near future, anything like that happened then Aaron would be the first to know about. I would tell him that I have feelings for someone else, feelings so intense that nothing could match them. I never felt that with you and I am truly sorry if I wasted your time and...

Wait, what was I even thinking about? I can't fall in love with Rogan, not after knowing him for such a short time. 'Love at first sight' and all of those things happen only in crappy romance novels. Not in real life!

The day carried on like that with me debating whether people could fall in love with someone at first sight, although this time I was careful about not getting caught.

In the lunch hours, me and Shelby talked like nothing had even happened but I knew we were avoiding that topic because,  agree to it, fighting with your best friend can really be exhausting.

At the start of lunch, Aaron came by our table and chatted a bit, being the dutiful boyfriend he was and after ten minutes he left, after giving me a small kiss on my lips.

I could feel the entire cafeteria's eyes on me. But I had gotten used to it. I surveyed the tables, looking for Rogan and to my delight, he was looking at me. But the joyful chocolatey eyes were filled with a defeated look in them.

I wanted to go over and ask him but then didn't. He was surrounded by his friends, how am I supposed to talk to him now?

On a que the bell rang and everybody rushed out to get to their lockers. I went to him when he was alone and asked him, "Are you alright?"

"Yes, I am. See you in physics."

With that he left me there making me think...

What the hell did I do wrong to irk him like that? Is he bipolar or something?

So chipmunks, my classes start from day after tomorrow so updates might be irregular and short.
