Love Is Crazy

Chapter 5

(Part 1 of party scene)

Tap. Tap. Tap

This has been happening since History class started.

I thought he would have given up by now, but the guy is persistent.

After a few more taps I finally gave in.

"What do you want Luke?" I whisper-shouted.

"Hi" he said giving me a bright smile.

I chuckled and turned back to the lesson, cause this boy is gonna drive me nuts.

Now this wouldn't happen on a regular day because well someone decided to sit beside me today in class.

The tapping continued.

"Don't you have a girlfriend to go bother or something." I asked him mostly out of curiosity than annoyance.

"Nope. She's not my girlfriend." He stated proudly.

Curiosity got the best of me.

"So what is she?"

"Looks like someone is finally talk-"

He didn't get to finish his sentence as the teacher interrupted.

"Would you two mind telling the class what's so important that you couldn't wait till class was over to talk."

I instantly paled this has never happened to me before. Thankfully Luke was quick on his feet. But I spoke too quickly.

"Oh we were just discussing how Nicky is practically begging to go on a date with me." and he put on that stupid cheesy grin.

"No I was not." I stood up for myself.

"Nicole. Please, have a seat. We wont judge you for liking Luke."

"But I-"

"Please"

I slumped back in my seat glaring at Luke.

" You'll pay for this." I mouthed to him and he just chuckled shaking his head.

The nerve of this kid.

The bell rang signalling class was over.

Everyone's chairs were being pushed back, and people gathering their things.

I left as quickly as I could but clearly not quick enough.

I felt a slight tug on my arm. I tried continuing to push through but his grip was too strong. So I gave up.

"Can I walk you to your next class?"

"Oh no. That's okay you have English just down there, and Ap Math is all the way over on the west wing."

"Already studying my schedule I see."

"No I just- I. Never mind. Later." and I walked away.

"Later sugar!" he shouted down the hall. Now that got a few stares.

"Don't call me that!" I shouted back. I didnt here anything else after that so I just went on my way.

I was walking out of school. Eager to get home.

"Nicky. Hey Nicky. Wait up!"

Ugh. I know that voice. I was so close to getting away. I could run but nah I'm too lazy to right now. So I stopped and waited.

"Nicky. Im really sorry. I dont know what happened to me yesterday. Please forgive me."

"I've already forgiven you. Remember the number one rule in our friendship. No matter what we forgive each other."
