Love Is Strong

Chapter 4

I'm gonna go ahead and fast forward a bit.

Adaieh's P.O.V.

I'd never thought I'll be happy to be in gym. Yeah I'm tomboy but I do not to sweat. That's the only thing girly you can pin on me. I went up in the bleachers in the far right corner to sit.

That's weird. Usually Sarah gets here before me. The only time it's different is when she's sick and didn't come to school at all. Well I guess I'll have to wait.

I put my earphones in and turned my music on shuffle. On My Mind by Ellie Goulden came on.

Now I don't understand it
You don't mess with love you mess with the truth
And I know I shouldn't say it
But my heart don't understand why I got you on my mind

I hate it when I'm listening to music and I start to think. That's one of my reasons to listen to music. So I wouldn't think. But my mind couldn't help it.

I still don't understand, it just doesn't makes sense. Andre has english literature before gym. And that teacher doesn't even give out homework. Probably because he doesn't want to grade anything. So why did he need to go to the library? He doesn't even check out books!

Maybe I'm over thinking this. I need to calm down and let Andre do him. It's none of my business. He'll tell me sooner or later.

I sighed. There goes another reason why I listen to music. It helps me calm down. You can say it's my outlet. I'm not a person who gets mad alot-

"Hey Adaieh."

Oh my gosh! Brian's talking to me again. Dang it! Where's Sarah? She still isn't here? Well, I guess I'm on my own with this one.

I smiled and took my earphones out.

"H-hi Brian."

Be cool, be cool.

"Where are your friends? Don't they usually sit with you?"

That's actually a good question. I'm wondering the same thing.

"Uh, I don't know. Andre had to do something in the library and Sarah should be here by now." I said as I sent a quick text to her.

:Where r u?

"Oh. Did you uh tell them about the party?" He rubbed his neck showing a sign that he was nervous. Well that makes two of us.

"Yeah, they said they'll go."

"Cool."

After he said that we just stood there, smiling like idiots. Can this conversation get anymore awkward? If only we had something to talk about.

"Hey B-man, let's play ball!" A tall lightskin guy yelled. He's not cute but he's not ugly either.

Well at least there wasn't anymore awkward silence.

"Alright! Hey, can I uh get your number so I can text you the address of the party?" He chuckled nervously.

That's a cool way to get somebody's number. Even though I already know where Becca lives. In fact I think eveybody knows where she lives. But I nodded anyway.

He gave me his phone so I can do so. I put my name under Adaieh. He can change it whenever he wants.

"Okay, I'm texting you now so you can have my number..."

Ding!

:hi

I saved it and smile at him when he started to walk away. I'll put his name under Brian with two yellow hearts. Yellow's my favorite.
