A couple of days had past and each morning George and Sara would have awkward encounters in the canteen. Turns out she wasn't close to getting over what George had said to her the other day, no instead she went and sat with James and his crew of half the school. Sara had suddenly become a 'somebody' and unfortunately for us, she was loving it.
Today we walked into the canteen to find James's squad stood around him singing happy birthday, "oh for fucks sake" Levi cursed as we saw them. "Its his birthday?" I questioned, "no Beth they're just singing happy birthday to him because he likes the song" Drew said sarcastically with a smirk on his face, I playfully slapped his arm and glared at him.
We all sat down with breakfast, Sara walked out with her breakfast and swung her hips side to side as she headed over to James. Nate watched her every move but everyone was more focused on George who had his head down and was looking sorry for himself. "Yo, you okay dude. I know this must be tough, especially because we kind of assured you that she'd come around" Drew asked looking at him, "I don't know what I was thinking saying all that, that guy is like a thousand times hotter than me, why would she listen to me and not him she's besotted" George sounded on the verge of a mental breakdown, "because she should. Hold on" Nate jumped in from his silence, before he stood up and marched over to Sara.

I tapped Sara on her shoulder as she stood in front of James. I don't understand why I get so afraid, I could take that guy down with one punch. It was Sara that intimidated me in a not so noticeable way. She turned saw me and rolled her eyes, "what do you want" she sighed, "I need to talk to you" I nodded, "well I don't want to talk to you" she said going to turn back around, I grasped her shoulder, "I'm sorry did I start that sentence with, 'if it please your highness'" I said with a deep growl, I felt her tense up under my grasp. If scaring her was the only way to get her to listen to me I'd do that. "Fine" she spat nastily, "thank you" I smirked at her. she then followed me away from that crowd.
"What do you want? and make it quick" she spat, "I'm sorry but first off, who the fuck do you think you're talking to soft arse. Don't get cocky with me or you'll know about it" I growled, she looked slightly shocked with how I was talking to her, "Second, what are you doing hanging around with that guy" I gestured to James, "if you're worried about fuckboys, I do believe you've just joined forces with the biggest fuckboy to live" I told her bluntly as I folded my arms, "he's one of the nicest guys I know, he's nothing like you or your bunch of heartless twats who couldn't give less of a shit about me or any other girl, as long as they'll fuck you, you don't care" Her words cut through me like a knife. "Don't say that I don't care, you know nothing about my feelings or Drew's or Levi's. If anything you're the one who doesn't care. You've left George for that guy. Your best friend, for that guy" I said still gesturing to James, "George doesn't care, you didn't hear all the shit he said to me-" "he didn't mean it Sara, he was just so damn afraid that he was loosing you, granted he didn't try and resolve the situation in the best way but he was sick of looking out for you and being your shoulder to cry on and all he got in return was seeing the back of your head because you were off talking to some other guy. He won't admit it Sara, I haven't heard him admit it but it's so obvious. So obvious there are some feelings there, he's a good guy Sara and you just wanna throw him away because of a couple of things he said. Seriously look at him" I said gesturing to George who was sat with a tray full of food in front of him that was untouched, "Does he look like he doesn't care to you?" I questioned her, she looked at him, she stayed silent. "To me he looks the opposite. He looks guilty, he just wants his best friend back" I told her bluntly. She was silent for a minute, "yeah well, if he cares that much why doesn't he just come and apologize to me, it's not hard" she shrugged, "Sara, fucking hell. Not hard, you're 'popular' now and he's still him, you never came and spoke to us when you were 'just Sara' or whatever. It's not that easy, and now I understand why. You're-" "What's going on?" James cut me off, "we where just talking" I told him, "well why don't you just go back to your table and we'll go back to ours" James shrugged, "because unless you didn't hear me, I said I was talking to her" I sighed, "Are you back-chatting me?" he laughed in slightly disbelief, "I'm talking to you because you're being hostile over a girl that I'm talking to, you're trying to intimidate me with your advanced height and honestly it's not working" That's a lot of big words Nate, do you even know what they mean? "that's a lot of big words for someone like you to be saying" he folded his arms, "and yet, I'm saying them" I shrugged cockily, "are you getting cocky with me?" he said getting in my face, "apparently yeah" I shrugged, "well maybe you should sit down" he growled, "or maybe you should" I heard Drew from behind me, I'd never stand down from him, it was only a matter of time before Drew stepped in, James looked at Levi and Drew behind me, "sit down pal you'll end up in a mess, remember who was here before you" Drew smirked in his direction, James went to turn around and he looked at me, "watch your step" he growled, before walking away. "Sara come on" he called for her, she looked at us. "Sara you don't belong there" Drew told her, "and what? I belong with you guys?"she shrugged, "yeah, you belong with George" Drew told her, "Sara!" James called for her again, "I have to go" she shrugged, "think about what you're doing" I told her, "I am, When George grows the balls to apologize to me I'll come back but tell the others I said hi" she shrugged before walking away, "no. You can tell them yourself" I muttered under my breath and then the three of us returned to our seats.
"What happened?" Beth asked, "she said when George is ready to apologize to her, she'll accept" Levi told her, George's face just looked sick, I knew how he was feeling. Except I didn't know what it was like to break up with your best friend, but I knew about Sara and how difficult she could be, it was like once you hurt her there was a wall in front of you. That was the first time I'd spoke to her in like a month and that's not how I wanted it to go. I had denied to myself that I had any feelings for Sara, denied any evidence but the more I thought about her, the more I was drawn to her and what I thought was a crush turns out as more. I didn't understand the feeling, I had never had these sort of feeling for anyone, ever.
Bit of a filler with some added Drama. Will George grow the courage to apologize to Sara or not?
