My Gay Best Friend...Likes Me...?!?

Chapter 8 (Shane's P.O.V)

~Shane's P.O.V~

I got up just as the clock turned 7 am. I was able to move around, but the ache in some of my muscles was still there. I got ready and got my gym kit since I had gym 2nd period. I finished getting ready at 7:40 am and decided to go downstairs. Dad only just left out the door; he seemed to be in an ok mood. Mum was on the sofa feeding Zach.

"Your breakfast is in the kitchen on the table." She called to me.

"Thanks," I said sitting down and started eating. I went back upstairs and grabbed my phone off the charger. I then came back down. "Mum, I'm going now if anything happens text me or call." She nodded. I walked out the house on my way to school.

I saw Yasmin walking with Aisha but I was ahead of them, I hope they haven't told anyone that I'm gay. I headed to form. I sat down where I did yesterday while everyone else settled down. The door opened and Yasmin walked in with a smile; is she always this happy to be in school? Sasha sat next to Jess. "Morning." Yasmin smiled.

"Oh my gosh, are you ok? Am I seeing things? Is she actually in form on time." Jess smirked at her; is she really that late?

"Ha, ha very funny, I told you I'd come to form on time and is that how you say hello?" She joked putting her bag away and sat next to me.

"Hey Shane." She smiled at me; I just nodded.

"Don't mind her; she's always this bubbly in school. She's such a nerd." Sasha laughed.

"Take that back, I'm not that much of a nerd! Am I Shane?" She laughed at her and looked at me.

"No offence but you kind of are." I smirked; somehow her good mood was rubbing off on me.

"No I'm not! I hate you all! And stop smirking at me Jess! The only reason I like coming to school is because of my friends." She said. She said something else, but I never heard her, I could tell her smile was forced. What did she say?

"Aww, you love us really." Sasha smiled at her. I could tell she was really smiling this time. While they chatted I stayed quiet but talked when Yasmin asked me something. Soon the bell rang for next lesson.

On the way to English, I saw Luke walk out his form class; I smiled, I saw Yasmin look at me from the corner on my eye. I looked at her wondering if she told anyone, she must have understood; she shook her head no telling me what I wanted to know, I smiled at her. She seemed to be the only one who could read me like an open book. In some ways that's bad but in others, it was a good thing. But I felt like I could somehow trust her and that scared me. I also noticed I smile a lot more when I'm around her; it must be because she's such a bubbly person. I wish I had a happy life like hers.

When we got to class a boy was sitting where I sat yesterday, that must be Jake. Yasmin told me I could sit next to her since her friend Hollie wasn't in. We put our things away and sat down.

Mrs started the lesson; everyone turned to page 132. I looked at Yasmin as she turned to page 215. We started reading after a while she leaned over to me and whispered "what page are we on?"

"Page 179." I whispered back. Guess she finished the book.

"Thanks." After class ended we got our bags and headed to gym class, I can't wait. I'm in an all boy's class. When I found out; I smirked, this day is awesome.

Yasmin showed me to the boy's changing rooms, I smirked and walked in. I went to get changed in my tracksuit bottoms and a long armed top; to cover the bruises and cuts. My dad was clever enough not to hurt me where people would see. After I got changed I walked out to wait for lesson to start. I saw Aisha and Yasmin walk out to line up. Yasmin saw me come out the changing room, I was still smirking. She just shook her head and laughed. The boys were outside playing football and the girls played basketball inside.
