-------------------------------------------------------

I'm I wake up to my alarm going off. I slowly pull myself out of bed and hop in the shower. The hot water felt so nice after the 3 long days. I get out of the shower and dry off. I pull my wet hair into a messy bun and I walk into my room. Then I put on a nice gray sweater, with some ripped skinny jeans, with my black converse.

I walk out into the living room and see a note on the table. I walk over and pick it up.

Call me if you need anything. See you at school. :) -Johnnie

And at the bottom of the note was his number. I pull out my phone, and copy down the number into my contacts.

I quickly run over to the kitchen and grab a breakfast bar. I sit on the couch and just relax for a minute while I eat. God. Do I really want to go to school today...? After what happened yesterday... I give myself and pat on the face. Don't let people get between you and your grades...

I stand up, grab my backpack, and put music on. I don't want Brody to talk to me so I just put my headphones in and walk out of the door. I slowly make my way over to the bus stop. I already see Brody waiting there. Great... I make it to the bus stop but I'm a few feet away from Brody. I sit on the nearby bench and I clenched my hands in my lap. I couldn't even look up at him. Or look in his general area.

A few minutes past by and the bus finally shows up. I wait until Brody gets on first, and I follow far behind. I sit in a seat up front and just then my phone goes off.

Unknown Number: "Hey..."
Who the hell is this?
Me: Hey...? Who's this?
Unknown Number: That's not important. Just listen.
Me: Ok...?
Unknown Number: I made a mistake...
Me: What "mistake"...?
Unknown Number: That's not important either. Just know that I'm sorry and everything will be fixed soon. Promise not to hate me...?
Me: I guess so...

I slowly peek my head up and look towards the back if the bus. Brody had a big, wide smile on his face. What's he so happy about? Wait. Did he...? No. It can't be him...right...? Just then the bus pulls up to school.

I see Johnnie walking in and I race after him.
"Morning." I said with a smile.
"Hey there, Mrs.Sleep-a-lot." He said with a laugh
"Hey! That was an accident." I said while gently punching him in the shoulder.
"Ow!" He said faking it.
I couldn't help but laugh at him.
"Baby much?" I said while walking through the school doors.
"Maybe." He said with his arms crossed.
I didn't see it before, but he had on a blue T-shirt and ripped skinny jeans, and of course he had his converse on from last night.

I run over to my locker, and I give Brody no attention. I have never purposely ignored someone before...
"Morning!" I heard Emmy run behind me.
"Hey!" I said with a smile.
I was honestly in a great mood. I got a job. I have my own place. Everything so far was ok... Even though the past 3 days were shit, things were slowly starting to look up.
Emmy looks behind me and gives Brody the stink eye.
"Come on let's go." Said Emmy while pulling me to my history class.
"Don't give him any worry." She said while dropping me off.
"I know, I know..." I said while walking in the class room.

I sit down at my seat.
"Ok we're taking a test today, I hope you studied your notes last night!" Said Mr.Cipp.
as he passed out the test papers.
Oh shit... I totally forgot about the test! I was having a great time at work that I totally forgot to study!
I have a panic attack in the corner. I take a deep breath and write my name on my paper. I see Brody in the corner of my eye laughing. I roll my eyes.

I finish the test. I was sweating the whole time. I was so nervous. This is the first test I have taken this year, and I didn't even study. Just then... a note pops on my desk. I look to see Brody asking to use the bathroom. I look down at the note and it says: I'm pretending to go to the bathroom. Ask to use the restroom and meet me outside the classroom. -Brody

I give out a sigh. I raise my hand and ask to go to the restroom. I clench my hands to my sweater and I walk out. I see Brody
standing there. With his green flannel, ripped skinny jeans, and his red beanie.
I could tell he was nervous just by seeing him fidget with his bracelets. Then he looks over to me and stands up straight.

"What do you want...?" I said while looking down at my feet.
"I know you hate me right now..." He said while stepping closer. I stay where I am, and now I can feel his breathe on my neck. "But I don't want our friendship to be where it is now. Can you please just forgive me? I really want you by my side..." he says as I see one tear trickle down his cheek. "I hope you know I want the same thing... I forgive you. I'm glad nothing is awkward between us anymore." I said as I wipe his tear from his cheek.
"Silly, why are you crying over me..." I said while I gave him a hug.
He didn't say anything. He just held me tight.
"I have my reasons..." He said between sobs. I wipe his tears away and back up.
"You ok now...?" I asked with a soft smile.
"Yes..." He said while covering his face with hair.
Just then the bell rings. Me and Brody run back into class and grab our things.

I my heart ached. I never thought he would cry over me... I just thought he would apologize, give a quick hug, and leave.

But him crying...

Broke my heart...
