Depression Hit Me Hard

13: Luke

So apparently here's my timetable:

1) English - That's fine.

2) Spanish - I don't understand.

3) World History - Ew no.

4) Music [ Orchestra ] - Hmm.

5) Lunch - Yay <3

6) Math - Errr.

7) Free Period - Finally.

There's two periods of English, three for Spanish, one for World History, one for Music, one for Lunch, and two for Math. Obviously, one for Free Period.

Mind you, Luke has the same exact schedule as mine, that is worse than having Math damaging your brains.

For each period it's about 40 minutes, for your information. So basically during Miss Rebecca's ( English ) period she talked about the surprise project she's going to give us starting from tomorrow onwards, and everyone groaned. Well not every one in particular. Most of the guys paid attention to her mainly because of her looks. She's in her mid-twenties and she's actually really pretty with her long blonde hair. She glanced in our direction - our, as in Luke and I's - every once in a while and it's pretty annoying. Is Luke really a bad boy that she needs to make sure he's not doing anything bad to me? The whole time I was praying that she would change our seating arrangement. I would do whatever it takes to not sit beside Luke, so everytime she looks at us I tried giving her a sad look. You know, to show that I'm 'suffering' from sitting with Luke.

Well, I must've looked stupid. She ignored me the whole time. And what made me want to jump from my seat and give her a huge tight slap is when she said," Oh, you're going to be sitting in this arrangement for the rest of the year. I hope all of you are happy, I'm giving mercy, I know you want to have fun in School but do not take that privilege away, understand?"

Everyone was grinning, except for me. I just frowned.

"Stop acting pissed off. I know you are begging for me to sit next to you," Luke whispered. He must've seen my expression.

"It's the complete opposite actually," was all I said before Miss Rebecca started speaking again, giving a little more instructions regarding the surprise project.

Did I mention I made a new friend? Her name's Bethany, well Beth. She sits in front of me and obviously she made the first move. Our conversation's pretty awkward but it don't matter anymore. Right when she opened her mouth, she's already my bestfriend.

"Hi I'm Bethany, call me Beth. I suppose you're Ally?"

"Yeah hey," My mind went blank.

Someone actually wanted to make friends with me! Or is it she just wants Luke's attention.

It was fine until Luke interrupts us. On the bright side Beth actually hated him too. I'm starting to actually like her. And to confirm, she doesn't like Luke one bit.

"Can you guys shut up now? I need to pay attention," Luke blurted.

"Dude, since when do you ever pay attention in class? Just so you know, I'm not freaking scared of you, nor do I have a crush on you whatsoever unlike those other girls, bad boy. So why don't you shut up instead, asshole," Beth turned to look at him, exaggerating on the word 'bad boy'.

Luke just glared at her and ignored her afterwards.

"You know Beth, I'm starting to like you. We have so much in common, like for example hating bad boys like you know who. We should be best friends," I said, trying my best to make sure Luke heard it.
