I Will Always Find You

I didn't go to math class the next day instead I skipped and came to second period which was science.

Justin wasn't in the rest of my classes for today so that would be nice.

"Hey. Did you sleep in this morning?" Nathan asked me.

"Yea super tired." I fake yawned and hoped he believed me.

"You know the whole school knows you and Justin aren't on good terms. It's obvious. You don't have to play with me either. Like it or not I know you too well." He smirked.

"Really?" I said and sighed at how nothing is private in high school.

"Yea if you just want to hang out and I don't know get away from it, I'm thinking about getting pizza after school you could come with me? As mutual friends." He chuckled. He's always been so nice to me.

"Sounds great actually." I smiled and started to pay my attention back to the teacher and taking notes.

It isn't even that bad between Justin and I? Why does the whole school think we are going through something? That's not necessary.

Well school was over after two boring blocked periods of my day but at least Id hang out with Nate before I went home.

"This your car?" I said to him in the parking lot.

"Yea you didn't drive in this morning?"

"No my sister dropped me off."

"That's cool come on let's go."

We got into his car which was a grey car that was comfortable for four people. I sat in the front and he played music that I hadn't really heard before but really enjoyed. I didn't bother asking him where he heard it or anything either.

"Okay what's your go to slice?" He asked me.

"Cheese but if Im feeling spunky Buffalo chicken." I said and smiled.

"Two buffalo chicken." He ordered.

"The slices here are huge it's like they cut a whole pizza in fours." I said as I looked at my plate.

"Yea you've never been?" He said and we sat at a table for two looking out the window.

"No, but I should."

"Yea. Yea so how are you?" He asked biting his pizza.

It seems like everyone has been asking that. Sometimes I just want to say what they want to hear. But since so many people are asking sometimes more than once I feel like I'm saying the wrong thing. Do they know something I don't?

"I mean with my friends it's all fine. I'm good. And Justin is Justin it'll be all good in like two seconds he just doesn't want to hear it right now I guess." I said and ate my pizza.

"That's great. Really." He said and continued eating.

"Nate can I ask you something? Will you be okay with it?" I asked. I don't know why I mean I'm just asking for trouble.

"Uh yea anything." He said making eye contact.

"Do you think about me? You know like if you liked me. Or how I kissed you?" I said out of pure curiosity.

He looked at me for a second and his face got flushed.

"I let you ask the question but I don't know how I feel about answering that. You're still in a relationship." He laughed off nervously.

"I don't mean it like that. I'm sorry but I don't feel that way about you. But I still think about it. I wanted to know if you did." I said.

"Why do you do that?" He asked a little annoyed.
